Agreed. There comes a point when you just have to go out and take your lumps. Nightclubs are actually good practice for this, but you have to be able to "cold start" a conversation with someone, or ask them to dance, and that's not always easy.

Don't buy into the hypergamous hype. I live in Dallas, and for every dude driving a BMW or Corvette, there's 10 driving a beat up Corolla or a turn of the century pickup truck. The bar isn't as high as you think. Successful people might flock to big cities, but that doesn't mean big cities are full of successful people. There are financial opportunities here, but the vast majority of people don't have the keys to access them. Women know that. Your supply of paycheck-to-paycheck women is also a l…

You have to go where people in your stage of life are. That’s pretty simple when you’re still in high school, since everyone there is pretty much in the same stage. After that, college helps, if you pick the right one. After college, you’ve got to work harder and do more research…..mix online dating with nightclubs, meet-ups, church, health clubs, etc.

My 3 pieces of advice as an older guy….. 1) Go to college. If you can’t score in todays 3-2 women to men universities, you’ve got issues. 2) When you get out of college, move to a city or metroplex with at LEAST a million people. Both your career and social life, will thank you. 3) Research and make use of the nightclubs in your city. Women in nightclubs actually WANT to be approached, especially on weekend evenings.

Nobody is denying that there are variations in individual attraction, but playing in an arena where both the odds (male/female ratio) are against you, and the referees and dungeon masters (algorithm, membership level, etc) are often against you as well, doesn't help.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/06/23 11:06 PM

Admittedly, we are a sweat pants, tank top and flip flops culture, and that's not even counting what you see at Walmart. It seems "pajama pants" have taken over too. "You look like you just got out of bed" used to be statement regarding hair....now it's clothes too.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/06/23 08:50 PM

These guys don't seem to realize that more often than not, it's the MATH that's "defeating" them, not the preferences of the women. Tinder is 4 to 1 men to women in the US, and a staggering 9 to 1 in the UK. Even if there were no such things as "Chads" and all men were equally attractive to women, most are going to lose out, due to the math. Then they swipe right on everything with a pulse and vagina, which pretty much ensures that most women are going to get all the matches they can handle, bef…

I agree, the "voluntary matrix" is gradually sucking everyone up into it, and nobody seems too concerned about it. Everyone is spending more and more time online now, and more and more of life's activities have been moved online. At least with us Gen-Xrs and older Millennials, we grew up before the internet, so our "base reality" is still the "physical world". It's the younger Millennials and Gen-Zrs that I worry about, as their "base reality" is much more likely to be the net. Your base reality…

I think it’s part of the whole “Women want bad boys and quickly get bored with good guys” mentality that’s going around these days. Some guys try to carry it over to the bedroom, and porn definitely doesn’t help. Old fashioned “touchy feely” porn may not have promoted the best bedroom skills, but at least it didn’t promote violence and abuse.

Yeah, I even did a whole post several months ago, on the topic of men's bad behavior, both online and in the "real world", turning women off, and making things a LOT harder for other men who behave reasonably well. Lots of women agreed with me, but most guys said, "It's not my business how other men behave" or "Those women are exaggerating the hassles and dangers". https://www.reddit.com/r/PurplePillDebate/comments/xvrto6/when\_it\_comes\_to\_mens\_fortunes\_in\_datingthe\_few/

Managing a matchmaking service is a pain in the ass, since you're basically "stuck" to your clients, and are responsible for everyone. Everyone complains about everyone else, without taking a good look at themselves. If I were doing it as a business, I'd rather do one-shot things like speed dating, or some other meet-up thing. You just get a venue, load it up with people and snacks, do speed dating or some other rotational activity, and then just let everyone go when it's done. Nobody can blame …

It's not just a matter of preferences, but some women's sex drive in general, can vary greatly, during the month. It's a weird thing for us men to wrap our heads around, since our "cycles" are daily, rather than monthly. It's not that unusual for a girl to swipe left on dudes for weeks, than go to a bar, and chat up a dude who looks like a potato, during "that week" of the month.

Yep. I can't really blame some dudes for just plain being unattractive, but I can blame all the dudes that aren't "staying in their lane", ie., the MUCH older guys trying to pull college girls, the "married but looking" dudes, 300 lb dudes looking for 110 lb fitness models, scammers, intentionally bitter trolls who just want to "take women down a peg", etc.

LOL....sounds like yet another example of men ruining dating for other men. If a woman encounters 10 creepy dudes in a row, you can't really expect her to be as enthusiastic, as she otherwise would have been, for the 11th! :)

I don't know what generation you are, but I think we Gen-Xrs just got "spoiled" by the nightclub environment. We're just used to things happening so much faster, being more exciting, and getting a full assessment of someone in person. As a man, the whole process of creating a reasonably competitive profile, engaging in dull, sober (LOL) conversations, getting ghosted, waiting for the right time to meet in person, etc, just sounds like torture LOL

As a bit of a "nightclub veteran", I admit that they've never really been easy for men, but I think they provide opportunities for men that get "drowned out" on the apps. I can usually "clean myself up", go to a Dallas nightclub on a Friday night, and turn a few heads, and often make a connection or two, while at 5'8", I get about as much attention on dating apps, as a Honda Civic sitting in a Corvette lot.

I think a lot of guys still view the dating apps as "neutral" environments, when they're really not. Match Group gets 85% of it's revenue from membership fees, not ads, which means they don't make money, unless people PAY. The algorithms greatly disadvantage free riders.
/r/PurplePillDebate02/06/23 04:26 PM

Even disregarding any neurodivergence, this sub, like many places on the net, is always going to be heavily weighted towards introverts. The internet in general, is always a flawed microcosm of society, for this reason.

Women have been leaving the dating apps in droves during the past 5-10 years, but the effect is just now being noticed. Europe always seems to be a little ahead of the US in social trends, and right now, Tinder is down to a dismal 9 to 1 men/women ratio in the UK. With those odds, you might as well look for women in a men's locker room! Capitalism causes problems, but it also eventually solves them, if given enough time and demand. I think in-person services like speed dating, and "just lunch" m…

I have had more than one woman tell me, that women usually agree on which men rate as 1-3, but they start to diverge as to who is a 4-7, and there is wide disagreement, as to who is an 8-10. In other words, women widely agree on who is ugly, but they widely disagree, on who is handsome.

I think a lot of the things which make someone attractive, are NOT necessarily sexually dimorphic traits. Things like good skin, nice eyes, good hair, good posture, reasonable body weight, reasonable proportions, decent fashion sense, etc. I know the "It's over for me, because I don't have Chad's shoulder width" crowd, will disagree, but I'll stand by that statement.

The only "numbers" that ever seem to get referenced often here, are those from the tired old OK Cupid survey, that happened.....what....15 years ago? Those women weren't rating men, they were rating PHOTOS of men, during the peak of the "Bathroom mirror selfie and dude holding a fish" era, well before guys even gave ANY thought to their photos.

She was actually a couple years older than me at the time. I was just out of college and 23, she was around 25, if I remember right. It's been a couple decades since then.

A lot of it will depend on how well, he maintains his boundaries. You can be a "sweet guy', but still maintain strong boundaries.....say "NO" to her now and then. A lot of men, start out as strong bachelors, but becomes hopeless simps after marriage. You can't be afraid to lose her.....at ANY time. It's like negotiating for a new car.....no matter how much you might love that car, you have to be prepared to walk off the car lot, if you don't like the deal.

I think the terms "toxic guy" and "bad boy" can vary considerably in their definition, depending on the setting, the guy's actual behavior, and the woman's prior experiences. Sometimes, just setting strong boundaries, and sticking to them, will give you a "bad boy" image for some women. When I first moved to Dallas out of college to get my first "professional" job, I met a woman in a nightclub, and we sort of had an FWB relationship for about a year and a half. Back then, I was more concerned ab…

Lmao….I wish! 🤣 thanks for the shout out! When I got out of college, and moved to Dallas for my first “professional” job, I had an affair with an older woman I met in a club. She taught me a LOT about women’s preferences. It was “find the clit now…..or else!” 😂

If you really want to please a woman, try taking intercourse OFF the menu for an evening. Limit the activities to those involving fingers and tongues. You might find yourself connecting in a whole different way.

I've been telling these dudes the same thing. The women rated PHOTOS of men, not the men themselves. I've always had a pretty reasonable amount of success, meeting women in night clubs. I can put in a couple of hours of work in the gym each week, put on some decent clothes, and cologne, and go turn women's heads in Dallas nightclubs on most weekend nights. Of course, being good at starting conversations helps. But I absolutely can't take a good photo of myself, to save my life. I can guarantee t…

The piece you're missing, is that women's preferences CHANGE, based on their experiences. They undergo "Boyfriend oscillation", alternating between one type of man, and another, as a result of bad experiences. I've been told by two different women, without any solicitation on my part, that the thing they most loved about me, is that "absolutely nothing about me reminded them of their ex". Now, I don't know if their exes were "Chads" or "non-Chads", but obviously, they wanted something different,…
/r/PurplePillDebate01/05/23 08:02 PM

Yeah, the inexperienced haven’t yet learned that there is a lot of nuance to sex. It’s not just “tab A in slot B“. People attitudes, hang ups and fears can make or break the experience, and the added pressure of trying to “make it work” after marriage, doesn’t help.
/r/PurplePillDebate27/04/23 03:19 PM

I think he’s implying that women are more likely to be satisfied with their BF’s and husbands, if they don’t know that there are better lovers “out there” 😂🤣
/r/PurplePillDebate27/04/23 03:02 PM

I agree with your mom. I can’t think of anything more risky, more filled with uncertainty, and more set up for failure, than marrying someone without determining if you’re sexually compatible first. I’ve never understood the obsession with virgin women on this sub. Seems like a risky venture to plan a life with a woman who has never had sex, and may not even like it…..or may not like it with that specific guy.
/r/PurplePillDebate27/04/23 02:47 PM

Yep, that’s why attraction stays strong when you’re dating, but tends to wane when you’re married or living together. You spend an appropriate amount of time together, while still having your own space. It gives you a chance to miss and long for your partner.

You're free to put out whatever message you want, but there will always be men who want to have sex, and don't want to get married, as well as guys like me, who were married once, and have no intentions of ever doing so again, but still enjoy having sex, to counter your message.

Curious, would you consider trying if you had a desktop vaporizer? This eliminates most of the issues with smoke (e.g. tar and various particulate) as well as greatly reducing the smell. Probably not....Perhaps I just have a "recreational substance bias", but that's fine.....there are people who don't like alcohol as well, but they aren't trying to get me to stop drinking, so I'm happy to return the favor for weed and tobacco smokers, as long as there are no 2nd hand smoke issues.

The "Men should be experienced....women shouldn't" double standard doesn't fly anymore. For one thing, the math simply isn't mathing. Women will simply avoid men who think this way.....as they should. For another thing, shaming isn't effective, except in the most rural, podunksville environments, where everybody shops at the same store, goes to the same restaurants and bars, and shows up hung over to the same church on Sunday morning. In an urban environment, these things aren't even factors, pe…

Who gets to decide where this "equilibrium" resides? As a divorced man, I enjoy sex outside of marriage.....I'm certainly not going to get married again! As such, I'm certainly not going to shame women who enjoy it. I enjoy alcohol and gambling. I choose not to smoke weed for personal preferences, ie, I don't like the smell, and I'm not comfortable with inhaling any foreign substances into my lungs, but I'm not going to keep others from doing it, as long as 2nd hand smoke is regulated.

Don't let these guys get to you. I'm a divorced Gen-Xr, and my attitudes towards women are WAY healthier than some of the guys here, some of whom have never even had a date, or kissed a girl. I can understand having bad attitudes toward the opposite sex, if actual experiences have given you reason to feel that way, but some of these young men are turning into members of "the He-Man Woman Haters Club", before they've ever had a woman.

I think what she is trying to say, is that we are all changed, by the people we date. We all learn from our experiences. Someone who has had bad experiences with the opposite sex, is going to approach the opposite sex very differently, than someone whose experiences have largely been positive. Men and women constantly shape and mold each other. Nobody's attitudes towards the opposite sex, are the same by their mid 20's, as what they were in high school.

Feelings change over time. I certainly loved my wife, when we first got married. Over time, we drifted apart. By the time we divorced, I no longer loved her, although I still wished her the best, as she did me. That doesn't change the fact, that I loved her at one time. There is a REAL danger on this sub, with people who have NEVER experienced the realities of marriage, trying to impose their own interpretation upon it.

Women aren’t stupid. If they get pumped and dumped, they generally look for something different next time. “Boyfriend oscillation” is a real thing, I even did a recent post on it, and the women’s answers were surprising. Ultimately, we ALL settle. Nobody gets their perfect mate, no matter what romcoms and Disney sitcoms tell you. We all have memories of the one that got away, and there’s no hard evidence that women are any more “haunted” by them, then we men are.

Meh, I can spend 2-3 hours a week in the gym, and get a decent body, it's not that intensive, unless you're looking to get to "beach model" level. Far and way, the biggest mistake most men make, is just not eating enough protein. People talk about the 0.75-1 gram of protein per lb of bodyweight rule now and then, but most people just don't realize how much protein that actually is, on a daily basis. Your body can't break the laws of physics, it needs something to work with. Stick to your routine…

My old wingman and I used to joke that we were the two least likely men in the world, to ever fight over a woman, because our tastes were so different. I like curvy, somewhat petite brunettes, and he likes skinny blondes, that to me, looked like they had just escaped from a prison camp with a serious food shortage! I just can't into a woman that looks like she's all elbows, knees and ribs.

I have heard it said by more than one woman on this sub, that women are largely in agreement on which men are 1-3, but they start to diverge on who is a 4-6, and they tend to widely disagree on who is a 7-10. So women are largely in agreement on who is ugly, but tend to disagree on who is fine LOL

You're probably right about some of these guys, but others may simply be down on themselves, from so many negative experiences on the dating apps. The apps can be soul crushing, for dudes that have never tried any other way to meet women, and have never had any luck in high school or college.

Well I’m my case, I met my ex-wife as a friend of a bar girl, but she wasn’t really a bar girl herself. Of course, we still wound up divorcing, so that’s probably not a great endorsement.

It’s going to take a while longer for things to return to normal. I can’t speak for other cities, but here in Dallas, bars and nightclubs were among the hardest hit by COVID. Many had to shut down, and haven’t reopened. Entertainment venues like movie theaters, bowling alleys, arcades, etc were hit hard too. People complain about a lack of venues, but for every venue, somebody has to put a lot of money on the line, and take a big risk.

The whole "Choose better" thing, isn't as simple as people make it out to be. When you're just dating, you pretty much only see each other at your best. You generally don't see each other at your worst. You don't burden each other with your day-to-day problems, and you don't really see how your partner handles those problems. When you're dating someone, you're not really dating them, you're dating their "representative". When you're married, it's a whole different ballgame. You see each other un…

Ideally, a woman should go back to work from time to time in a marriage, just to keep her skills and resume fresh. I've got a few years before my daughter is going to college, but I hope she chooses a field that can be left and re-entered, relatively easily.

I think the threshold is going to be highest at the beginning of a relationship, during the approach and charm stage, because that's when women are most on their guard, and at their most skeptical. It really doesn't take much during the approach phase, to turn a woman off. At that stage, women are looking for flaws.

It could....it may depend on the type of neuro-divergency, and how emotionally needy and insecure her male partner might be. Some men require a lot of reinforcement and ego stroking, while others don't expect that much from women.

LOL The struggles that pre-20th century men went through, just to secure a little time alone with a woman they were courting, were far greater than anything faced by men today.

Change is a constant threat to a marriage......either because you wanted your partner to change, and they didn't (a view often held by women), or you didn't want your partner to change, and they did (a view often held by men). People always picture themselves and their partner as being "frozen" in time, but events can begin to undermine things, even at the beginning. You have to commit not just to the person your partner is TODAY, but to the person he or she may be years from now, even if that p…

As a divorced guy myself (just once), I can tell you that MANY aspects of a typical marriage, are beyond an individual's control. Granted, failing to make 3 marriages work, is not the same as failing to make one marriage work, but at the same time, you can't control what your partner says and does. People tend to enter into marriage with a misplaced sense of optimism....that everything will just "take care of itself". In reality, a marriage is more work, than just about anything else in life you…

I've sort of learned that chasing isn't worth it, in most cases. It's always been my experience that the chemistry is either there, or it isn't. If it's not there, nothing I say is going to change it. Real life isn't like Steve Urkel, who pursued Laura Winslow for 10 years, and she finally said "yes", after things failed with practically every other guy. LOL

As a man, I agree. It's always been my experience, that when I meet a woman, it's either extremely easy, or impossible.....there's almost never any middle ground. If she likes me, there's almost nothing I can say to mess it up. If she doesn't, there's almost nothing I can say to win her over.

I think it's also a matter of financial priorities. I certainly enjoy nice cars, clothes, watches, electronics, etc., for their own sake, not just for attracting women. But I've always made sure other stuff was in order first, ie., retirement fund, rainy day fund, bills paid, no high interest debt, etc. Get that nice car, but make sure your other shit is in order first.

I think going out on real "dates" is a must, even if you've been married 50 years. The problem is, it's just so easy to forget about doing it, when you're dealing with kids, finances, health issues, family drama, etc.

Yep, the "Men don't want woman to change, but they do, and women want men to change, but they don't" wisdom has been around since the 1950's. With marriage on the decline, I think it's less a matter of "progress the relationship" and more a matter of "Just keep her guessing".

This is just starting to sound like FWB's to me. I've had FWB's where I didn't tell them about my other dates, and they didn't ask. I also didn't ask about theirs.

I think this is why we Gen-Xrs came up with the "3rd Date Rule". The 3rd date rule sort of gives both sexes a guidebook. It gives women time to evaluate a guy, and it lets men know when to make a move. It sets expectations for both sexes, and lets everyone know what to expect. It's not a perfect solution for everyone....some people may want to move faster, some slower, but it's better than nothing.

Younger Anglo-white women are certainly picky, no question about that. Latin-American and Asian-American women tend to be more open to dating short to medium size guys, possibly because their own men tend to run shorter.

My views on TRP have always been mixed. Some of it's conclusions are sound, and fit with my experiences, ie., women are more looks-oriented than men realize, women don't like to see weakness of any kind in men, etc. However, I have always felt that TRP greatly underestimates the effects of socialization on both men and women. A good or bad experience with an ex, can greatly affect what type of person you look for, or what you avoid, the next time around.

It was actually in the middle of Dallas lol. It was a relatively small company at the time though.

I think this is part of why the move to online dating, sort of disrupted things for both sexes. Women are tuned into a lot of things, that don't really come across online.

Yep, for me it's always been either absolutely effortless with a woman, or absolutely impossible.....there's almost never any middle ground. If she's into me, there's almost nothing I can say, that will blow it. If she's not into me, there's almost nothing I can say that will win her over.

Don't forget that dating app algorithms and ELO scores are anything but "natural", which gums up the statistics a bit. "Premium" paying guys get priority over non-paying guys, in terms which profiles get shown to new women first. I checked, and the vast majority of dating app profits in general, come from user fees, rather than ads, so you want the paying guys to have a better experience than the non-paying guys.....and KEEP them paying.

It does seem like the much lower swipe right rate for women, invalidates at least some of the OP's arguments. I'm curious as to what she has to say on it. Another issue, is how representative online dating is of "real world" dating. Is it just a speeded up version of it, or are there different factors at play. Are women more picky online, because they know they CAN be, based on the 80/20 percentage on apps like Tinder? Are women more "forgiving" in the real world?

Perhaps, but it often comes down to what experiences you've had with a specific type of "look". When I was in my early 20's, I had a couple of back-to-back BAD experiences with white, blonde girls....basically Hayden Panettiere-types. Those experiences involved both lying and cheating, and they left a bad impression on me. For years after that, I tended to shy away from girls that had that specific type of "cheerleader look".

If you found TRP at 18, then you're definitely a lot younger than me. Good for you, but a lot of people, both men and women, still wind up making a lot of mistakes when they're young, and you can't hold all of that against them. Both men AND women, can easily fall into the "Well he's/she's not perfect, but I think I can change him/her" trap, especially when you're young. If you forgive men for our mistakes, then you need to be somewhat forgiving of women's mistakes as well.

You’re obviously more socially conservative and religious than I am, which is fine, the world needs all kinds.

As long as the “institutions” are voluntary, non-discriminatory and still allow men and women the same freedoms, I can deal.

There are certainly limits to libertarianism, especially in the modern, urban world, where people are necessarily more interconnected. I can stomach a certain amount of social safety net, but when entitlements make up such a huge part of the government budget pie chart, it is time to re-examine things. I can also stomach tax incentives geared to get people to do “productive” things, within reason. I don’t like “rock and a hard place” legislation, such as Texas outlawing abortion, while at same t…

Yes the SPLC does have a “hair trigger finger” when it comes to accusing various groups of various things.

It's not a "chicken or the egg" issue, or even a matter of whether the "warnings" are needed. It's simply a matter of what the constant barrage of warnings actually do. Too much naivety is not a good thing, but neither is an abundance of suspicion and contempt.

It's not that simple though, estrogen and progesterone also play a part in regulating a woman's sex drive. Also, women have different numbers of T receptors in cells, than men do.

I know the differences in the way that sex was presented to boys and girls were pretty profound for my generation (Gen-X).

It's good that you had the strength to resist society's "picket fence" expectations, and carve your own path. Unfortunately, not everyone does.

Thanks for your response! It's good to know that not every woman is raised with negative messages toward the opposite sex. I think it's sometimes hard for people to gauge the effects of socialization on themselves, because you don't have a basis for comparison.

As a man, I certainly do. I enjoy hearing their insights and points of view, and marveling at how different they often are, from ours.

Women have been socialized to observe emotions, hints and body language more closely, while we men tend to assume, that if someone's got something to say.....they'll say it.

Well, men are still expected to take a more active role, in approaching and initiating the relationship.

When you're the sex that is expected to do more, then it stands to reason, that you are more likely to make a mistake. Therefore, advice is going to seem more valuable to men, than it does to women.

The "cheating imperative" is no worse for women, than it is for men.

He's got a point though. As a guy who practically "grew up" in the Dallas and Houston nightclub scene, I've always had MUCH better luck in clubs, than online. Then again, I'm only 5'8" or 5'9", depending on what kind of shoes I wear, but I do have a pretty good face, hair and skin. I get completely filtered out on the apps, due to my height, but I can usually make a good impression in person, where women aren't obsessed with "the numbers".

Many Texans accept far right ideology, largely because of a combination of religion, fear of “gun grabbers”, and a general suspicion of anything “urban” in nature. As for the red pill guys on this sub, they want to revert to more “traditional” rules and lifestyle, because they think it will give them the subservient wife they want, and some fantasy 1950’s sitcom family. Both groups are delusional.

I’m a libertarian and egalitarian. The libertarian part means I think I think people should be able to manage their own lifestyles, relationships, sexuality, education and career. The equalitarian part means that I think libertarianism is for EVERYONE, regardless of their skin color, gender, etc. Not everyone in Texas is a right wing religious nutbag. I usually vote Democrat, not that it does much good in Texas. I’ve been those things my whole life, and a divorce isn’t going to change that.

LOL OK I see your point, but high schools really should be off limits to those over 21 or so, due to differences in maturity. A 17 year old hasn't had time to mature.....a 40 year old woman has. Even the "Romeo and Juliet" laws only give a 2 year grace period, for most states, maybe 3 at the most. The European formula solves some of this problem. Take the man's age, divide by 2, then add 7.....that's the minimum age woman, that the man should realistically date. Hey, by that formula, I'm allowed…

TRP is supposed to be all about what MEN should do and think. It's not about telling women what they need to do and think, either for the good of themselves, or for the good of society. The recent abundance of implied, "Give men more sex, or society will collapse!" posts is WELL beyond the scope of TRP, and well beyond the scope of this sub.

Enforcing monogamous marriage worked well, in small towns and villages, where everyone knew everyone else, sexual activity outside of marriage was hard to hide, and people died within 50 miles of where they were born. Urbanization brings anonymity.....as a Dallas resident, I can date two women who live a mile apart, and they most likely would never find out about each other, unless I did something really stupid, or I just didn't have time/money to keep both of them happy.

Sure, but without sounding TOO hypocritical, knowing about HER's, and telling her about YOUR's, are two different things. If you've got an experience in your past, that for whatever reason, is going to "disqualify" you with a lot of women, it's probably best to keep it under wraps.

I'm not sure....governments have certainly passed restrictive legislation before, but not so much in the recent Western world. You can certainly find examples in medieval Europe, but a lot of that was religiously based. Now Eastern societies like China, and Middle Eastern Muslim societies, are a different matter altogether. It's hard to fight cultural ideas that are 1,000 years old.

That's still a big sample size. What's more important, is HOW people got to this sub, and what KEEPS them here. There is something addicting about discussions that involve dating and sexual interaction between men and women. Yeah, your average "blue collar" girl, who works as a waitress, nurse or mall store salesperson, and then hits the clubs after hours, probably isn't spending much time on Reddit, but your geeky college graduate girl might.

I'm not missing voting at all, which is why I mentioned "democracy". Personal restrictions tend to be unpopular, and politicians will seldom propose anything wildly unpopular in a democratic republic. Western nations have been liberalizing for the past 800 years, starting with the signing of the Magna Carta. I doubt that trend will change. Obviously the majority is always going to rule, but the majority, at least in Western nations, usually favors liberty, at least as far as it can be taken.

True, but without determining what the good sample is, we don't really know how far off PPD girls are. Somewhere, there's a "perfectly generic" 20-something girl....but where is she, and what does she think about men?

I think we need to back up a bit here. If we agree that PPD women aren't representative, then we have to decide who is. First, we have to decide which group we are trying to "sample", is it just 20-something girls, or are 30-something girls included? Sure, there are a lot of interviews on Youtube, with "girls on the street" giving very shallow answers as to who they would or wouldn't date......height, race, penis size, income, etc. Usually it's a group of "hot" girls outside a nightclub, often i…

As a reasonably experienced guy in life and sex, I'm not sure that you're going to find a "representative" sample of women, in any one specific venue. I was a big nightclubber for many years, and the women I met in clubs, were very different than the women I met through friends, work, hobbies, etc. Things get more complicated when you take online venues into account. I actually see a lot of the things that women say here on PPD, confirmed on places like TikTok or Youtube. I frequent a variety of…

Yes, for women at least, a pear shape always beats an apple. As long as a woman is "little in the middle", she can store some fat above and below.
/r/PurplePillDebate08/12/22 05:17 PM

That's a very important distinction, one that often gets ignored. Women have "good" places to store fat, ie., hips, breasts, butt, etc. There really aren't any "good" places to store fat on the male body. Fat storage itself, is something of a sexually dimorphic characteristic, and it doesn't enhance male sexually dimorphic traits, like it does in women. For men, it just makes you more apple-shaped, and if it gets bad enough, can bury your penis LOL

Yeah, the importance of this can't be overstated. Just going to the gym regularly makes you feel better about yourself, which affects your interaction with others.

Even NT people can be uncomfortable with eye contact in certain situations, like attempting to flirt. The natural tendency is to look away from a stranger, even if you find him/her attractive.

I think the gendered differences can be fairly significant in some situations, but not so much in others. A lot of men can see sustained eye contact as an attempt to intimidate or dominate, when done by another man, depending of course, on the context of the conversation.

Nightclub interactions helped me a lot, when it came to these types of things. Clubs are basically "trial by fire" when it comes to communication and approach skills. On the plus side, you get more or less immediate feedback, on how you're doing, so it's good practice.

For me, when I was younger, it was a just a combination of shyness, and not realizing it's importance. I just didn't bother that much with eye contact in casual conversations, but it makes a huge difference, more so when talking to women, than men.

I think it's importance is underestimated by many. When I was younger, I was a bit on the shy side, and I sometimes didn't engage in eye contact as much as I should. As I got older, I learned the importance, and make more of a conscious effort to do it. I found that it improved my personal and professional relationships immensely.

Trying to control anyone's sexuality in the modern world, without religion, is a fool's errand. Without religion, there's no "You're being watched all the time" failsafe on behavior. Religion is the foundation of conservative government.

Liberty is always going to lead to some bad outcomes, as it gives people the freedom to make bad choices, both for themselves, and for others.

The fish analogy breaks down as well, for one simple reason….fish don’t WANT to be caught….women do. Women actually WANT men to do BETTER….the fish does not want the fisherman to do better.

One of the benefits of age, is historical perspective. When you're young, you tend to assume that the recent past is mostly the same as it is now, or it was somehow "better". When you've actually experienced the recent past, you get a better sense of the challenges that people faced in the past, vs the ones they face now. It's why older generations constantly spout "Walked to school in 2 feet of snow" stories, and younger generations constantly roll their eyes at them.

In the Western world, matches were still evaluated on the basis of economic and social class. Also, the vast majority of fathers worked with their daughters in finding an appropriate match.

Nightclubs are a lot of fun, if you approach then with the right attitude. Some of it is cultural, some of it is generational, some of it is locale. The night life is always very different between a big city and a small town, and since I grew up in one, and now live in the other, I'm in a position to compare the two.

I think the comparative sexual agencies of men and women are extremely different and one sex has a clear advantage over another in today's dating market.

A man's sex drive adds so much to life though. It fuels passion and dreams. It gives you something to look forward to. It can be channeled and directed towards physical and/or mental pursuits. It allows you to strengthen both your mind and body in wonderful ways. Younger men just need to learn patience and self-discipline.

Yeah, but he did imply that tradcom and religious women should be treated as a separate group, which is fair. The thing is, you can take a woman with a count of 10, and some groups of women will call her "relatively pure", while others will look at her like she just spent the night hooking. Women tend to use their friends as "barometers" for their own behavior. If a woman has a BFF with a count of 50, she's going to blow through her first 20 dudes, like she's at a Golden Corral buffet.

Hiking and cowboy boots can definitely add a couple inches, on their own, without insoles. Sometimes it's cultural, you're going to feel like a midget in a Texas C&W bar, if you're the only guy not in boots and a hat LOL.

That is a possibility. Admittedly, a good chunk of my experience with women, comes from the nightclub environment, where things tend to be "accelerated".

The OP's experiences and conclusions pretty much match mine though. It's always been my experience that a woman is either 100% into me, or 100% NOT into me. There's almost never any middle ground.

People definitely have some different ideas about what constitutes "social drinking". I was probably in a bar or club virtually every Fri/Sat night during my entire adult bachelorhood, when I wasn't taking a woman out, anyway. Since being divorced, I'm right back at it, although a bit less intensely. But then, I hardly ever kept alcohol at home, during that whole time, not even beer. Something about drinking at home, always seemed kind of sad and pointless.

When it comes to nightclubs, I've found that safety and security are big issues for women. Here in Dallas, the clubs that bring in lots of women, are the ones with valet service, good bouncers, and well lit venues. Of course, all those things cost money, and usually result in a cover charge. Being in a nice, manicured, suburban neighborhood also helps too, as does having a good selection of wines, fruity drinks, and a good sized dance floor.

As a longtime clubber, I think the "power boost" takes a while to learn to manage. There's a definite "sweet spot" in the amount you drink.

That's good to know. I've seen a fair amount of variety among women, as to what different women find attractive, but I've always assumed that each woman had a "type".

In urbans areas, you do, I can't speak for small towns. Given the number of nightclubs here in Dallas, I'm always amazed at guys here on PPD, who are always saying that nightclubs are going "extinct". The pandemic definitely hit a lot of nightclubs, bars and restaurants, but they are making a comeback. I think many here underestimate the desire of some people, especially women, to meet people off the net.

A woman on a post I did a while back, told me that women are very much in agreement, as to who is a 1-3, but there is less agreement, as to who is a 4-6, and wide disagreement, as to who is a 7-10. In other words, women generally agree on who is very unattractive, but widely disagree on who is attractive. Would you, as a woman, agree with that statement.

Your real assessment as a lover, is based on how eagerly women RETURN to your bed, not how quickly you were able to get them there, the first time. When you buy a new product off the shelf in a store, you're likely doing it based on the packaging and hype. If you buy the product again, it means that the CONTENTS of the package were worth buying again.

You're confusing RP'ers with Chads. The guys that women choose when they're young, don't need TRP. The potato-shaped, 5'6" RP'er can learn all the TRP he wants, but he's still not getting the girl before she's ready to settle down.

This girl will have to play by free market rules, just like everyone else. If she has the qualities to land a guy in a better "class", then she will. Even if she is beautiful, she will be at a disadvantage, compared to women who have a college degree, and women in urban areas, where many more wealthier men are found. If she's a small town girl, and stuck there due to family ties, then she may have to settle for a guy who at least can run and manage a small business.

Ultimately, liberty has to win out. Liberty is never "fair" in the sense that some will make good choices, and others will make bad ones.

I'm white and of average height, and I was so shy in high school, I couldn't even talk to a girl, but I still managed to get a GF by 21 in college, after my severe acne was cured LOL.

These men base their opinions entirely on online dating. The idea of doing things in the real world is entirely foreign to many of them.

Porn destroys your ability to become sexually aroused by normal sexual stimuli. It trains your brain to rely too much on visual stimuli, while ignoring touch, scent, etc. Over time, you require greater and greater visual stimuli to become aroused. It literally rewires your autonomous stimulation pathways. This may be hard to believe, but throughout much of human history, people actually had sex with the lights off, visual stimuli didn’t play nearly as big a role. When you finally do get in bed w…

That might be true, but I think women just get "worn down" from the abundance of bad encounters on the apps. In "real life" things tend to move a bit slower, and it's harder to "catfish" and be something you're not. Also, women are more sensitive to things like body language, mannerisms, scent, posture, movement, etc., that don't show up on the apps.

Part of the issue, is just knowing when to pick up on a woman's signals. Women can be quite obvious.....if you know what to look for. Nightclubs are always good practice for this, as alcohol lowers inhibitions in both sexes, and the signals get more aggressive. A "cold approach" in a nightclub or party, should never really be "cold", more like "warm". My wingman group used to have a saying....."It's not who you're looking at, it's who's looking at you".

Baby steps help. Some states have passed laws fining unsolicited dick pics.

That makes sense. Of course, in a college environment, finances are probably less of a factor, especially if there is some question, as to which dating relationships are likely to continue once people graduate, and who is likely to be able to score a job in their chosen major/minor.

That's a good point, and it illustrates the differences in behavior between men and women, when they are in a perceived "advantageous" environment. Probably the only missing piece of the puzzle, is how often the women in a women-advantageous environment, will "trade up", when presented with an opportunity to do so. A lot of the men here, assume that women are always in "upgrade" or "monkey branching" mode, in such an environment, even when they may not be.

I've also had a fair number of women with very high sex drives, but unlike possum, I'm less concerned with how women's sex drive compares to men. Rather, I'd ask how much of women's sex drives is still suppressed by society and socialization. Have the old concerns about assault, harassment, pregnancy, reputation, sin, etc, been largely removed, or do they still greatly influence women's views toward sex? If the external environment is still "hostile" to sex for women, then that is a significant …

This sub always seems to negate or diminish the vast effects of socialization on sexual expression, especially when it comes to women. When you've got one gender that is told, "All sex is good sex" from the time they're kids, and the other gender constantly being warned about assault, harassment, pregnancy, disease, reputation, sin, etc.....it's bound to have a cumulative effect over time, both consciously and sub-consciously.

This is an underrated comment. I MIGHT be able to accept that women are having hookups with a small percentage of dudes, but dating relationships??? Women are DEMANDING in relationships, it's difficult to date multiple women at once. These "Chads" aren't going to be able to manage it, unless they're geniuses and millionaires, as well as good looking.

Well, I'm not a woman, but as a longtime Dallas nightclubber, I can say that nightclubs in general, are on the decline, as is the approaches that men make in them. Younger Millennials and Gen-Zrs were never as big into the nightclub scene as we Gen-Xrs were. I've recently re-entered the nightclub scene after my divorce, and I can see why young men don't approach as much as we used to. Most women just aren't as approachable as they used to be, even in my generation. It's even worse with the young…
/r/PurplePillDebate23/09/22 04:25 PM

Culture and generation do play a big role. It was easier for us Gen-X guys to approach women, because Gen-X women were more comfortable being approached. Both sides played their part well. The women always declined politely, and the men knew how to take "No" for an answer LOL.

I saw a Youtube a while back, where a guy explains that the percentage of men who cold approach is actually very small, but the ones who do it, do it a LOT, so it can seem to women, like they are always getting cold approached everywhere LOL It's like when you walk into a room with 10 guys, and one guy cold approaches you, and then you walk into another room with 10 guys, and one guy cold approaches you, it can seem like it's every guy, but it's more like 5-10% LOL

Yep, at least parts of the Southern US, still have a "Talk to whomever you're around" culture for certain things, although that's dying out with the older people as well. The cool thing about Dallas/Fort Worth, is there is something for everyone here, but you've really got to go out and look for it. It's got over 7 million people, but it's a geographically huge place, it's not densely populated, like some Eastern cities. Everything is very spread out, and you're screwed without a good car.

Unrealistic expectations are usually their own punishment though, just like paying too much for a stock, and selling it for a loss later.

They won't succeed. Abortion has always been constitutionally "ambiguous", but election procedures are a different matter.

It is a little hard to take this guy seriously at times.

I'm going to step in here, and tell you what other guys will not.....when it comes to commitment, it's less about the woman a guy is dating, and more about TIME. It's more about where he sees himself, in terms of life stages. If a guy has reached a point where he's ready to settle down, he'll pick a woman and settle down. If he hasn't reached that point yet, then NO woman is going to be good enough to settle down with.

Yep, when women share a guy, it's unintentional. The apps provide "players" with secrecy and discretion, the real world doesn't. What these guys don't get, is that with 4-to-1 odds in Tinder (9-to-1 in the UK), even if the women chose men completely at random, like with a dartboard, 3 out of 4 dudes are still going to lose out. Add in the hypergamy factor, and these guys might as well look for women in a men's locker room.

I think it always was easier to compromise, when there were external forces, ie., kids, economics, social expectations, etc., MAKING you compromise. The "lighter" (less consequences) we make the commitment, the less people are likely to stick around, when they don't always get their way. Maybe increased personal freedom is just destined to lead to fewer committed relationships, and there isn't anything anyone can really do about it.

Some of it is age-related though, as to how much you have to do, to stand out. A lean, somewhat muscular guy in his 20's doesn't stand out that much, it's sort of expected. A lean, muscular guy in his 40's does. Same deal with hair, it's not whether you're keeping your hair, it's whether you're losing it slower than your peers. Of course, all of this sort of assumes that you're dating women your own age, and not trying to compete with 20 year old guys, for 20 year old girls.

Eh....I don't know about that. Prior to the modern world, men used to engage in lots of things that kept them away from women for long periods of time. I think suitable outlets for masculine energy, other than porn and video games, would help.

There has been a lot of upheaval in men's and women's roles, goals and expectations in the past 50 years. Both sexes are sort of drifting around, confused as to what they want, what they should do, and what they THINK they should want. "You can have it all" might seem empowering, but all too often it comes with, 'You're not doing it right, UNLESS you have it all". You're right about the economy, our offshoring and automation of good jobs, first blue collar factory jobs in the 70's and 80's and t…

True, there is at least one study, that shows that it's the act of cohabitation, rather than the legal act of marriage, which reduces women's attraction to their partners.

If you don't want to take it from the never-married guy, then take it from the divorced guy.....even though I got a wonderful daughter out it, I sometimes wish I had never married either. It made my life many times harder, and messed with my self-esteem in my ways I'm still dealing with. My advice to ANY young American, man or woman.....DON'T get married.

It doesn't, but it NULLIFIES what you said, in the interests of women. Their security comes before your preferences. NOBODY should be marrying before age 25.

I agree completely, and as a father of a daughter, I don't care how "white knight" I come across. These guys want women to have no margin for error in judgement, no experience to make that judgement, and no backup plan, in case things fall apart. SCREW them....I have always told my daughter to secure her education and career FIRST.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/09/22 09:53 PM

It's not just about the guy....everyone needs a backup plan, both men AND women. Marriages end....sometimes very unexpectantly. You have to have the skills to take care of yourself in the job market. I will make sure my daughter has a sound career, before becoming involved with a man, who may, or many not, stick around a long time. To add to the risk, statistics show that early age marriages, are at a greater risk of divorce. Be prepared for EVERY relationship to end.

I don't think you can cross-substitute those attributes. For instance, I like a nice, round butt on a woman. It's not a must, but it's a definite bonus. Her having money, isn't going to make up for the lack of booty. In fact, even her having big boobs, isn't going to make up for the lack of booty, despite the anthological theories that human breasts grew as "sexual display substitutes" for the buttocks.

Point taken, but I think the reasons are important here. Cheating for lack of affection from your partner, isn’t the same as cheating for novelty/excitement. Of course, everyone always says “Something was missing” in the relationship.

You can be nice guy, and still take charge during sex. I have found that women tend to like it, when you come up with ANY plan, in just about ANY situation, both in bed and out of it, even if the plan isn't a particularly good one. If a woman has confidence in you, she knows you will adjust things, as needed. Also, oral sex works wonders. I enjoy both giving and receiving, and never had any trouble making a woman orgasm. My ex-wife and I used to to 69 a lot.

As a man who married and divorced a Filipina (already in America), it's not what you think it is. Asian women aren't as submissive as you think, and they're definitely NOT submissive after marriage. In a lot of Asian cultures, women RULE things in the home. You're chasing after a "yellow fever" fantasy. Sure, go to the Philippines and Thailand, and have FUN, but don't bring any back, and definitely don't MARRY one.

Tinder is 4 to 1 men to women in the US, and a dismal 9 to 1 in the UK. It is the "Mad Max Wasteland" of dating, at least for men. If guys want to compete with "Immortan Joe" and "Humungus" for a cup of water and a gallon of gas, that's on them. There are much better ways to pursue and meet women.

It's funny how the words "stable society" always seem to be used by those at the TOP of the current hierarchy.

Now if you had asked others, namely women and blacks, they probably wouldn't have agreed with this "stability".

Wrong. Politics is always inherently conflictive. Voting substitutes for bullets in a democratic republic. If you can't vote, then you will be constantly VULNERABLE to the whims of those who can.

These guys are making way too big a deal out of the difficulty level. I've met women while standing in line, at the food court in the mall, and I'm 5'9". They need to go out to a nightclub, have a few drinks, get out on the dance floor, and get "outside of themselves". Your own inhibitions are your biggest prison. Make arrangements for an Uber or designated driver, and go out, get a little buzzed, talk to people you wouldn't normally talk to, and say things you wouldn't normally say.

Online dating has tipped the scales in favor of women when it comes to both, but a growing number of women are becoming disillusioned with what they find on OLD.
