Neither can ever sympathize with the others complaints, because we (say) we want want what the other has.Yeah Trump wont fix anything at all, but the intention for a lot of his voters is not to fix their own life, its to make others suffer.

| – | Dating for women is a swamp. Dating for men is a desert. Neither can ever sympathize with the others complaints, because we (say) we want want what the other has.I'm in my 30s, still live with my parents, and I STILL can enter relationships with men I'm attracted to at any time I see fit. See how the standards are a little different for men though? I highly doubt a man in his 30's whos living with his parents would get much of any success with women, regardless of his looks. Men have to hit certain milestones at very specific points in our life to be considered attractive. Thats part of the reason why men still out earn women and tend to occupy higher po… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/03/25 06:42 PM |
| 3 | The “average man” line of thought plays a sizeable role on my men are miserablebut only a small percentage of men try to lose weight let alone go to the gym, this tells us that a sizeable reason why most miserable men are that way. The obesity rates between genders are roughly equal so this is a moot point. If obese women are unwilling to date obese men then those women need to adjust thier standards. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/03/25 03:00 PM |
| 1 | Women often view toxicity through a male-centric lens, making them less likely to recognize their own toxic behavior.Yeah It really depends man, my uncle was severely physically abused by his ex wife and it culminated in her smashing a half bottle of liqour across his head. He still has some motor control issues due to brain damage 10 years later. Because of my personal experience and that of my family I dont view female on male physical abuse as any less severe than vice versa.

| 2 | Women often view toxicity through a male-centric lens, making them less likely to recognize their own toxic behavior.A guy who beats his wife is worse than a woman who verbally abuses her husband As someone who has been a victim of both, the physical abuse is scarier in the moment, but its some of the things my ex said to me that have really stuck with me and caused lasting pain.

| – | The Sexual Diversity Movement is a Cultural InvasionCulture does not give a person the right to dictate others sexuality of gender expression. If a person identifies as gay or trans thats their prerogative, others who share their culture have no right to tell them how to live their life just because such life choices arent a part of their culture. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/03/25 05:44 PM |

| – | CMV: Dating apps work perfectly fine and the way they should; there is no actual way to improve them.Apps absoluetly do not work how theyre advertized. Their is documented evidence that suggests their designed to encourage hookups and casual flings instead of serious relationships.

| 3 | False Rape Allegations: An Overexaggerated TruthAll high quality studies, large representative sample size, with consistent definitions and review from researchers trained in rape myths and bias determine that the rate of false accusations to police is between 2-10 %. Blue pillers cite this number as if it strengthens your argument, when it really doesnt. Thats still a 1/50 to 1/10 chance that a sexual assault allegation is false, thats huge.

What I look for in a woman is high compatibility because I know the things I value in a potential partner do not encompass the whole range of things that can make a person valuable.

| 1 | Women Don’t See Themselves as Abusers—Physically or Sexually.Idk, I just hear from a lot feminists that mens problems are mens alone to fix, and that we shouldnt ask women to help or to change, we should just shut up about our problems because us talking about them somehow detracts from womens issues. But in this case it is a pervasive problem across gender lines and it will take all of us to change things for the better.

For myself and a lot of other men it was our mothers or other female relatives, and the women that we've been in relationships with that were the primary enforcers and encouragers of machismo.

| 4 | Women Don’t See Themselves as Abusers—Physically or Sexually.There is still the notion that women are weak and thus won't do damage to men. Id say its not just that, theres also a deeply ingrained macho standard at play here that tells men they are supposed be tough, and that admitting pain or suffering is weakness, and weakness is specifically reviled in men. I agree that there is still a pervasive and harmful stereotype that women are weak, but it can also be beneficial to women in some ways. It gives women permission to be weak, which is fundimentally … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/02/25 05:02 PM |

| 5 | Women Don’t See Themselves as Abusers—Physically or Sexually.How is this circle jerking? Through personal experience Im pointing out how its hard for men to even recognize theyre being abused until something extreme happens, because our culture tells us that female abusers either dont exist or arent harmful in the same way. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/02/25 04:21 PM |
| 3 | Women Don’t See Themselves as Abusers—Physically or Sexually.Youre just wrong buddy. Look up the Duluth model, its a prime example of the invalidation and systemic discriminstion that male abuse victims are subject to, and it was adopted by police forces and judiciaries across the western world. Its changing slowly, but many still believe women cannot be abusers, or if they can abuse its harmless. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/02/25 04:16 PM |

Post WW2 the nuclear family in a suburban castle, disconnected from one another beyond the occasional garden party, was marketed as the "traditional and healthy" family. This could not be further from the truth, the nuclear family is a thoroughly post modern concept.

| 17 | Women Don’t See Themselves as Abusers—Physically or Sexually.Yes but broadly speaking our society is far more likely to recognizes them as an abuser. And if someone sees signs of abuse theyre far more likely speak up and take action if the victim is a woman. Female abusers can get away with physically assaulting their man in public and chances are no one will intervene, some people will even cheer as if its funny or entertaining.

| 1 | How can men be physically sexy in a tasteful way? Do you think "being sexy" is a social skill?The CEO absoluetly does not get to decide those things, they would be fired by the board of directors if they even tried to. No, the board of directors chooses a ceo based on his ability to find and manage talent, not to be the talent.

Do you think "being sexy" is a social skill?Im sorry but youre just wrong, what gay men find attractive and what straight women find attractive often overlaps.

Also when it comes to beach/pool attire formless knee length trunks are the opposite of sexy. I see so many guys with great physiques wearing these and it does them no favors.

| 5 | Benevolent sexism is just called privilegeAfter Vietnam, the draft is so politically toxic that neither party can trigger it, at least for another half century if not more. The draft has been politically toxic every time its been used, even in WW2 and the Civil War, two wars where the best case could be made for its necessity. It being a radioactive political issue has never stopped a draft from getting bipartisan support because the wants and needs of the DoD will always supercede the will of the people. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/02/25 07:29 PM |
| 6 | Benevolent sexism is just called privilegeLikewise, the current president bragged about not starting new wars and keeping America out of foreign conflicts, only to immediately start threatening Denmark, Panama, and Canada. So then why do you believe mens concerns of a draft are unfounded? And saying that the last draft ended over 50 years ago is not a compelling argument. Before WW1 there hadnt been a draft in the USA in over 50 years, that didnt stop the US government from bringing it back. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/02/25 07:01 PM |
| 7 | Benevolent sexism is just called privilegeA lot of women in my country are concerned about the status of reproductive rights because of whats happening in the USA right now, even though none of our political parties intend to take away womens reproductive rights, and reproductive rights are written into our countries equivalent of the American Bill of Rights. Would you say their concerns are invalid? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/02/25 06:12 PM |
| 7 | Proof of innocence is not enough to save a man's reputation/ life when accused of sexual assault. And that's why we should scrutinize every accusationBut accusations of sex crimes carry a lot more weight than anything else you mentioned, some see them as equivalent or worse than murder. Like even among convicts sex criminals are treated as pariahs worthy of violence. Because they are so serious we have to scrutinize sexual assault alegations more than most other crimes. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/02/25 10:47 PM |

This is a common strawman that women propose because it would be ethically uncomfortable to acknowledge this being true.Modern medicine does not stand by the notion that needs are linearly hierarchichal, base suvival needs on their own are not enough to maintain physical wellbeing. The heirarchy of needs makes the false assumption that humans are perfectly rational beings, but mental and physical needs are understood to be strongly intertwined, both affecting eachother deeply.

Not only has it been dragged through the mud by those who are against mens issues activism, a lot of genuine mysognists have used that title to push their own vile ideology.
