Both my parents have always struggled with their weight, but not to any huge extreme. Growing up I had no trouble maintaining a healthy weight, eating foods that were... kinda bad but not straight up fast food. Like a lot of bread, pasta, cheese, not a lot of meat and veggies. There were also fairly frequently sweet snacks on the weekends. My family also has a tendency to celebrate everything with very high calorie indulgance foods, and they hate exercise, but live fairly active lives just becau…

Dunno about young men who are very desperate, but I've absolutely been turned down by many average men, and they visibly turned up their noses and backed away. Almost comically, in hindsight. So men absolutely get repelled by women they find unattractive, and act weirded out. I think maybe you're just not imagining an ugly enough woman.

It's been ages since I lived together with a boyfriend, but if I was in a relationship and sharing living space, if I'd ask him to take out the trash, I guess I'd expect he'd to it at any time that day. And yeah a "no" is an okay answer, although I may wonder why. But like I get thatcsometimes I have to let the trash sit for an extra day because I just don't have the time to deal with that on my way out that particular day, and I'm unlikely to go outside just for taking out the trash. But if it …

No, I would not. Although personality absolutely matters, so does looks. I think for me it's kinda 50/50 looks/personality though. And I don't think I have crazy standards. Like there are balding 5'2 men and janitors I have found genuinely attractive, just going about my day irl. But that doesn't mean that there aren't some specific janitors or 5'2 balding men who I don't find attractive. And that's kind of important. But also on the other hand I wouldn't want for my date to be disappointed in h…

I think most women here just don't wanna change for men, and I think they mean from a personal integrity standpoint. As in, they don't wanna lose themselves in the process of prioritizing men's needs. Thing is I wouldn't want that either, but I don't see it that way. Like I'm fine with changing aspects of myself that are either not integral to who I am as a person, and/or will lead to a healthier lifestyle anyway. But I also don't see quite as many traits as truly integral to who a person is. Li…

I spend time learning about men, although a lot of that is kinda coincidental. Like when learning more about fitness and how to exercise correctly, I ended up watching a lot of male fitness influencers, and coincidentally learning a lot about what men find attractive in women, and what they'd wish women do more of, through that community. Because a big reason men get into fitness is to attract more women, so that topic is gonna come up a fair amount. Or when learning more about traditional value…

I've been rejected for my genetic facial features, even by men who are average or even below average. I mean traits like the shape of my nose, jawline, etc. I've been a healthy weight most of my life, and I'd dare say that neck down I do have some pretty good genetics, with stuff like hip to waist ratio, slim waist, big butt, etc. But my face just didn't hit the genetic lottery, and that has negatively affected my dating pool. Of course today it's probably a lot more common for women to get reje…

Generally I do think lying to get laid is worse than paying for it. At least the payment route is honest and up front. The transaction is at least to some extent mutual. There is a desire for consent, even if in actual practice the consent is questionable. But with lying to get laid then consent isn't really even considered. What matters then is just that the guy gets what he wants, not whatever the girl wants or doesn't want. So although I think both actions aren't great, yeah I do have more re…

Yeah I don't know, I got calmer and more confident when I learned a lot of those women's disadvantages were mostly just down to women's own personal choices. Like of course I pay "pink tax" by choosing to buy makeup, the pink shave foam bottle, clothing intended for women, etc. And of course women who work fewer hours, choose to get pregnant and take long maternity leave, etc would earn less, and so on. But I think most women are just driven more by emotions than I am. Of course I can sometimes …

No, it doesn't really matter to me, although within reason. If it's bordering on obsession or addiction, that might just make me wanna run away. But I mean I like some video games and action movies more commonly enjoyed by men, so there's some potential for it to be an interest we actually have in common, just probably I won't be as intense about it. But that's fine, I have some hobbies I can get nerdy about too, like sewing, embroidery, playing piano, and whatnot, and I don't expect a boyfriend…

Maybe depends on the situation, like are we talking about someone's looks match here, or not? Is the guy truly desperate to get laid, or would he be fine with longer times of celibacy for the sake of focusing on women he's actually attracted to? Because that changes the answer. Like if you have trouble attracting women you're attracted to, then you know what the options are, and it's up to you which one of those options you choose or don't choose to try. All us random plebs on the internet can d…

Not really, but sometimes I do get frustrated with women who clearly only shoot for men who are honestly way prettier than they are themselves, and then have the guts to say "where did all the good men go?" Like seriously? It just comes off as some kinda hubris. I dunno what the solution is, but I don't think it's force. Maybe they just need to be a bit humbled, but I dunno.

I think slut-shaming is a big issue causing women to generally feel more shame about their sexual needs, but I also don't think just removing slut-shaming fully resolves the issue. Because orgasm gap and risk of pregnancy are also big reasons women are generally less inclined to want casual sex. So like it is physical/biological too, not just social/psychological.

I'm a detrans woman myself, and yeah I would totally date a detrans man. Like I figure we'd relate and probably understand each others perspective on gender more than people who've never transitioned would. Even though I get that it's not the exact same thing for males vs females. Although I lean right wing myself, so I may not be compatible with your hyper specific example just due to that. Besides, I'm 37 so quite a lot too old for a 21 year old. But as a general concept, or if we moreso assum…

You should believe that sometimes labels are just redundant. If a label applies to vast majority of women, then it's not a quirky sexual orientation like "demisexual" and definitely not a minority, it's just basic female sexuality at play. And people too eager to label everything with some quirky sexual identity need to touch grass.

I haven't had kids, I'm still looking for a man, and by the sounds of it I'm older than you, at 37. So we probably shouldn't even be having the same goals with regards to weight, body composition, etc. But, I think the most generous answer is you ideally should be somewhere within the healthy weight range for your height, sex, age, all that stuff. So bmi somewhere between 18,5 and 25. As many people like to point out, the bmi isn't perfect, so you can also aim at a body fat percentage somewhere …

A few things, yeah, but nothing that's actually important. As an example I don't typically share with a partner (or anyone else for that matter) what I tend to fantasise about sexually but have zero interest in doing in reality. I may also keep some embarrassing sexual blunders in the past to myself as well. History of std's that I no longer have. That sorta stuff.

I haven't stopped being attracted to my original type, but I did broaden my attraction to include more different looks in men. I don't think it was a conscious choice though, it kinda just happened. Part of that was probably just me getting older, tbh. Although that said I've always been into unconventional beauty in men, like non-western masculine ideals, scars, short men, alt styles, makeup on men, gingers, albinos, etc. But also with a mix of conventional masculinity, like muscles, broad shou…

Except I don't blame men, and I work on self-improvement to become more attractive and better girlfriend/wife material to men. So I judge men based on the same merit as I judge myself, and other women for that matter.

There's no objective measure of qualification for dating. People have the freedom to reject anyone for any reason and no reason. Employers don't have that same freedom, they need to justify their reasons. So, apples and oranges.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/05/26 10:13 AM

No, I wouldn't. It's only entitled if he blames the women for it, and refusing to acknowledge any potential issues he may be responsible for. And no, I don't think every man frustrated with his lack of dating success is entitled. Context matters.

Kinda depends on how strictly you follow that advice. The man being the breadwinner and the woman having more time to do work at home doesn't necessarily mean the woman isn't working for any money at all, or that the man doesn't ever do any work in the home. I think this is the more reasonable approach to this dynamic in modern society. And it kinda was in the past too, tbh.

Some of red pill advice is literally only targetting men who want casual sex. Of course that advice isn't gonna apply to men (or women) who want long term relationships. But there is also plenty of red pill dating advice that applies to long term relationships. Like for men to be strong and capable, and women to be submissive and take care of the home/children. For men to aim at finding women who are truly attracted to them sexually, and for women to focus more on a man's inner qualities than ho…

No, I wouldn't. Because we have too different lifestyles and future goals. My bestie loves travel, adventure, and being spontaneous, while I'm more of a "home body" who craves consistency and familiarity above all else. I feel easily uprooted and unstable when things change a lot, while she instead gets easily bored and frustrated if things remain the same a lot. Even with super simple things like what to eat, what movies to watch, what music to listen to. But even more importantly, we wouldn't …

Why is kinky sex better? What if she's more passionate with you, initiates more, etc, and was more passive with the past kinky partners? Wouldn't that be a better measure of how into you she is? Just curious about your reasoning.

While I can find some female bodies aesthetically pleasing, there's really no sexual attraction there. I don't like looking at women naked, but also I don't watch porn of any kind anymore. Although that said I find lesbian porn especially off-putting, and would rather watch two dudes going at it. I definitely find men sexually attractive visually, it's just that it's not most men. So what motivates me to have sex with men is the idea of a hot man being all over me, and me being all over him. But…

Never heard of this before, but your link to test says I'm 3-1-5 whatever that means. It has that number 3 there though, and it seemed to suggest that's my strongest trait. But yeah, I'm definitely an achiever type of person. I guess I'd just say I'm ambitious though. So I can answer your question based on like just having that sorta personality trait. How that looks for me is generally I have trouble giving up on things. If it's something I've set my mind to achieve, I will just keep on trying …

No I don't think it's particularly healthy. Seems to always be some kinda cope, whether from traumas or some variant of sexual dysfunction, porn addiction, emotional issues, self-esteem issues, etc. I used to be into bdsm stuff, and told myself it was healing. Maybe for some time it was, but long term, absolutely not. Now that I've actually healed, the whole bdsm thing seems really maladaptive.

Yeah I get called a "pick me" a lot. It doesn't really bother me though. Just means other women get mad that I've no interest in decentering men, that I stand up for men who do/say smart things, and that I've no issue accepting harsh truths about my own gender, or the dating market, etc. Women who use "pick me" as an insult, I just can't take them seriously.

Yeah there is a lot of negativity around physical touch. Women who have this love language are probably often slutshamed, and men who have it probably often get called creeps for it. Wanting/enjoying sex seems to be one of those things society expects to be kept an open secret. Like we all get everyone (or most people) want/like sex, but no one is supposed to ever say so, or show it.

Physical touch is a big part of my love language. That, and actions in general. So, basically anything from hugs and any random acts of kindness, to sex. I don't care much for gift giving or verbal affirmations. I don't really like talking about feelings either. How this affects me in relationships is... honestly, it makes me feel lucky. I rarely ever have any issues finding a male partner who has the same love languages as me. It seems to be the vast majority of men wanting pretty much the same…

I think men's self-improvement advice is far better than women's. Like, at the very least it offers some actually practical advice that lead to some actual results. Whereas self-improvement advice for women is basically just pandering, or teaching you how to be mean and rude, which isn't even remotely helpful, unless you wanna become crazy cat lady of the year. Even if the advice for men doesn't help every man, that's mostly just a problem of it being too generalized. Like if you have below aver…
/r/PurplePillDebate27/04/26 01:59 PM

Yeah I have noticed in many women's groups (or groups of women) expressing any kinda desire for a relationship with a man, and/or wanting any kinda self-improvement, often gets looked down upon. Even when it's for reaching one's own personal goals, just enjoying oneself and one's own life. That's kinda strange to me. Even though I'm not a feminist, I don't see how wanting to be happy and satisfied with one's personal life is somehow going against feminist views. Like not everything women do has …

Some of it is kinda personal, but for example I still don't have a job, and maybe would be good if I can at least get my shit together enough to become like a waitress or something. It seems me living on benefits and not working is off-putting to a lot of men in my area, even though yeah I'm grateful most men don't care for career driven women. Biggest issue there for me is really only that I have way more fatigue than the average person, but it seems to be improving little by little, through ex…

But yes I'd also like it if he's strong and protective, can open jars for me and reach the top shelf. But generally overall I just want to have a man by my side I can snuggle up to, rely on, and treat like a king. And yeah sexual attraction matters for the sex part to work.

Yes, I think men as a whole quite often get the blame, or at least just the guilt-tripping, for what the few actually dangerous men do. Like there's some kinda "original sin" mindset behind it, holding men resposible for what their fathers or brothers did, or even way back ancestors. I've seen it happen a lot, almost on a daily basis. Mostly irl actually, although I live in a largely feminist country, so that is a factor, I think. That women's fears of potential harm (even extremely low risk har…

No I don't think that will happen unless steroids somehow become far less dangerous. Thing is most women are not even attracted to the very bulky, veiny, super lean look in men. Multiple studies and serveys show that majority of women prefer what men in gym culture would call a "natty physique." Like ~15% body fat with decent muscle but nothing crazy. The obsession with huge muscle and super low body fat is almost only going to impress other men. Sure, there are a rare few women who are into tha…

Both could have valuable info on finances, it's just likely gonna be different advice, because they have very different experiences with money. But that doesn't mean person A or person B has more or less valuable advice to give. Also, the more advice you can get from vastly different perspectives, the better. Isn't that why you ask all women in this sub what we think about this, and not just x, y or z specific kinda women? So, I'd listen to both, and then reach my own conclusions based on logic …

/r/PurplePillDebate06/04/26 11:07 PM

I think a lot of women get told they should never change for a man, that they're perfect the way they are, etc. Usually as a cope in response to confusing beauty ideals, and different men finding different kinds of women attractive. Women have a problem with thinking their value as people is tied to if they're attractive or useful to men. So then when men tell a woman they don't think she's attractive because x, y or z, it basically brings up all the insecurities she's been trying to cope with b…

It's not hard to find women who prefer LTR and marriage, and have no interest in engaging in casual sex. It's not rare for women to want commitment. And commitment is often treated as a sign of love and security. Of course it's not all men or all women. It's a generalization, not an absolute statement. And of course when dating people should ideally focus on the individual, not generalizations or statistics. My point was that, unfortunately people just don't do that. Women keep comparing men to …

Are we gonna acknowledge that men and women are different, or pretend we're exactly the same? Kinda can't have it both ways. Bisexuality, like sexuality in general, is different for men vs women. Men's sexuality in general is more physical, more visual, more direct, yes with actual feelings sometimes including love and care, but generally there's less ambiguity. While women's sexuality is more centered around feelings, romance, feeling safe, cared for, yeah sometimes also love and care for their…

You're right to say it's not fair to think autistic men have it worse than autistic women in dating, but that's because higher risk in dating is not comparable to less success in dating. Also, you could say the exact same thing about non-autistic men vs women. Because women by default are more physically vulnerable than men due to our smaller bodies and less physical strength. Also, there's the pregnancy risk aspect. So even autism aside, women are just generally at greater risk of harm in datin…

It really depends. If the new body was too different, then probably not. At least sex and general age have to be the same, also weight/bmi. Other genetic and environmental factors in regards to looks are less important to me in general, and that's where personality plays a bigger role in whether I'm attracted or not. Fyi I say this as a woman who's single, so my answer could be different if I had a partner.

Very often, men who immediately start talking about sex, asking me about sexual stuff, asking for nudes, sends dickpics, etc, before we've even met, are gonna be men who are really only interested in sex even if they say otherwise. If the guy also seems bored talking about anything other than sexual stuff, that's also a red flag. Men who try to get you to either go home with them, or get into your home, within the first few dates, are another red flag. I think that about covers the gist of it. A…

There's a difference between initiating and pushing. Initiating means you're basically just suggesting sex by using body language, and back off if she shows no interest. Pushing is ignoring her lack of interest, and just keep going. Most women want men to initiate, but don't wanna be pushed into sexual acts.

As for personality, someone who's chill, on the introvert side of things, artsy would be a plus. Which is basically just the female version of the kinda men I'm attracted to.

Yes in LTR most people stick within their own social/economic class. But this isn't nearly as strict in casual dating. Then it's not exactly uncommon to see men dating down, and women dating up. Most often mid to barely above average women dating the top 10% men. Rarely ever below average women, but no one really wants us anyway. No those relationships aren't usually sustainable long term. They're the side chicks or one night stands, basically not what most women aspire to be. But much of the re…

Sometimes, if he's very unattractive and more than 20 years older than me, but even then I do my best to stay polite and direct.

Investing as little money as possible at first is a smart move, I think. That should weed out the gold diggers. But you should invest time and interest if you're actually interested in a woman. What I look for in a guy during the first few dates is basically just what his personality is like, how/if we get along, that sorta stuff.

Yeah well crab bucket mentality is unhelpful. I mean it's unhelpful for men specifically, for women it doesn't really affect us much, I think. Not really. Of course it's unfair. A lot of aspects of life are. Social norms are only there to mimic the fairness we wish would exist in nature. But nature has always been survival of the fittest, and some get great genes and get to spread them to the next generation, others, not so much. Of course I'm not saying people shouldn't still try to do their be…

First off I generally do have empathy for a lot of men's dating problems, like men who lose all their money to some gold digger wife in divorce, men who lose custody over their children, or get baby trapped, men who get made fun of for things they can't control like being bald, short or penis size, men who genuinely struggle to find love. I have empathy for all that kinda stuff, but where you lose me is when the complaints revolve around just not getting enough casual sex, and not being able to …

Well, yeah. I'm "mid" or actually below average, and I used to give up sex super easily, because barely any men want me lol. You can't afford to be picky when you're not attractive enough to be picky. This is just as true for women as it is for men. The only difference is that the bar for being considered "mid" is set much higher for men, and women are generally more okay with going sexless.

When offering to pay for my own food/drinks I've no issue with the guy agreeing to that. It doesn't change how I view him.

I used to wear thongs a lot back in my teens. But that was only really because I had trouble finding regular panties that would actually cover my butt properly. They were all a bit too narrow just over the butt area, so the entire back section of the panties would get swallowed by my ass. Compared to that, thongs were very comfortable.

Of course bad men exist. The red pill point is that men aren't worse people than women, and women aren't automatically more innocent or more moral. Bad people exist in every category, question is whether some demographics have more bad people or more good people based on whatever (stereotypes, beliefs, actual facts, etc.) Blue pill has a habit of either uplifting women to an absurd degree, and/or demonizing men as a whole based on what a few bad men do.

Men who only care about sex and hookups and don't desire serious relationships are always gonna be annoyed and frustrated with women who quit doing casual sex, regardless of reasons.

I dunno I see bits of misogyny on both sides, but I don't think either side is inherently misogynistic. The way I see it is there are two different kinds of misogyny.

But on one hand there are those who take that mindset to think women must be kept small, delicate, feminine and please men. Maybe we could call these the…

I may be out of the loop, but aren't most men here just saying that sex is their way of showing sexual attraction, and wanting women to "prove" our attraction to them through sex, but like it's not necessarily about love? Just attraction. And sure, maybe (romantic) love can't exist without attraction, but attraction can definitely exist without love, or care, or empathy, or any of those things.
/r/PurplePillDebate19/02/26 06:40 PM

For me it's romantic gestures. Like taking me out on dates, buying flowers for me (or heck, pick them from nature), telling me sweet things, etc, basically love. A man having had sex with other women doesn't bother me, but him having loved and doted other women... yeah, that can cause some feelings of insecurity in me. Especially if he gave his exes more romantic interest. That said though I don't easily get insecure or jealous altogether, I tend to trust and feel safe and loved basically by def…

Imo I think most of women's misandry is kinda reactionary, a retaliation to misogyny, and sadly sometimes just the way women bond with each other. So I think they learn it mostly from other women. Women expect other women to hate men. But, the abuse and trauma some women go through at the hands of men is also a big reason. Then feminism feeds on victim mentality for these traumatized women, and takes power away from them instead of focusing on recovery and taking back power. Personally, I try ha…

Some men are stoic though? Or do you just not like that I like that trait in men?

Yeah I think it is quite individual, and makes sense women's genitals come in different sizes too. And that we'll like different kinds of stimulation. I mean I seem to be quite sensitive, and don't like the "being stretched out" feeling at all. But I hear about other women wanting that feeling specifically. So far I've never rejected a guy for his penis size. I mean lucky for me "too big" or "too small" (to my preferences) isn't super common.

Not entirely a coincidence because that's the depth of my vagina, which is also quite narrow and doesn't stretch much without pain.

I prefer smaller penises, and yeah I have ended up in situations where a guy with perfect size for me asks me about it, like is it big, etc, and then no matter what I say it's a blow to his ego. Because to me big does not equal good, and I don't wanna lie to a guy's face. So I've been in your girlfriend's situation quite a bit. And it does hurt my heart, like I just wanna find a way to make the guy feel good about his size. But I get that this is not within my power. It does sadly make a lot of …

As long as he's a good person, we have things in common, similar values, get along well, etc, I really don't care how much or little experience a guy has. I've been with inexperienced guys before. Most of my exes, I was their first girlfriend. It was sometimes a bit of a bumpy road, but overall not really an issue.

I don't think this is a bad idea, actually. I'd feel safer being given a guy's number than debating with myself whether it's a good idea to just hand out my number on request. Also I would still see that as him taking the first step. By giving a woman your number, you are showing you are interested. So if she texts you, that would be the second step.

Yes, confidence is universially attractive. Unless you're confident about being a total slob. This is how going to the gym etc also matters. And self growth can be attractive too, but only if it's linked to growing confidence. Basically, taking good care of yourself is generally highly attractive. It just can't stand on its own, and has to be paired with confidence.

Just depends on if you consider "below average" to be anyone who's under 5/10 or if you think of the average as moreso a range of maybe 4-6/10. But then there are lots of people who consider 4/10 to be below average and 6/10 to be above. Neither is necessarily wrong, or more correct. I can kinda see it both ways depending on the context.

No it depends. There are multiple factors that can put you in a lower league.

I even considered selling sex, because "why do it for free if you can do it for money" basically. Silly me, that was before I started to value my own body and the act of sex as not something anyone should give away all willy-nilly. That said I do think paying for sex is a step below just having casual hookups. As is selling sex. But I look down …

There are so many men who are attractive wherever I go, imo. Not just in how they look, but in how they vibe, how they carry themselves, what their voices sound like, they look clean and well-dressed, etc. I dunno any of these men personally, but I often see them about in my area, and on the rare occasion I exchange a few words with them, they seem nice and normal. They're store clerks, taxi drivers, nurses, security guards, neighbours, etc. So I highly doubt I'd have to sacrifice attraction for…

I think there's truth to both tbh. There are younger women who are very confident and use men left, right and center, as well as young women who have very little experience and are insecure, who are easily manipulated. Likewise some older women are more easily manipulated because they are desperate, while some older women are harder to manipulate because after having dated a lot of jerks they've raised their standards. But also overall, most people are easily manipulated by both sexes, regardles…

When it's too small for penetration to be physically possible, which is generally under 2 inches, or anything classified as micropenis, but depends on the guy. If he says he can make it work, I'd likely trust that he can.

Yes I see this a lot too. And kinda ironically I see it mostly from the women's side.

No most women don't bring a ruler to the bedroom. I think it's more about how big or small it appears visually, if you need one or two hands to hold it, if it feels big inside, etc. Personally I know how long my hands are (almost exactly 6 inches) so I use that to guesstimate. And I prefer penises that are notably shorter than the length of my hands from wrist to fingertips. So around 4 inches, I'd say is my ideal penis size. Girth also on the thinner side. And yeah most penises I've seen irl we…

I think most men just want a woman who takes care of herself (like showers and isn't obese, at bare minimum), is healthy, doesn't argue or nag all the time, wants to have sex at least somewhat frequently, respects his feelings and boundaries, lets him hang out with his guy friends, and isn't being a hypocrite about gender roles.

I might think it's fascinating and impressive, or even a turn on in my imagination, but I'd have zero interest in actually having sex with a guy who has a large penis. I've done it once or twice, back when I was doing casual sex, and I found it more frustrating and challenging than pleasurable. In actual reality it's the small to average size penises I enjoy and get pleasure from. I have a very small vagina, probably just genetics. Because I do have a fairly high body count (20-something, at 36 …

I typically see leagues as a combination of social class, status, what kinda job you have if any, health, etc, and how close or far you are from the societal beauty standards. There are additional things to take into consideration as well, but those are the major ones, imo. Unless I forgot something important. It's based on what aspects are generally valued or not in society as a whole. I don't think any particular person decided these leagues, or the qualifiers for each league. A lot of individ…

No, there's been a mix of both above average attractive and below average attractive men in regards to both the ones who approached me and the ones I approached. Thing is though, I don't feel comfortable approaching men who are clearly way prettier than me, and I also don't get attracted at all to men who I perceive as way worse looking than me. So the men I approach tend to be in the 4-6 (out of 10) range, while the men who approach me have been in the much wider, 2-8 kinda range.

Peasant's wife, for sure.

To some extent, but I get that averages for a large population does not determine any one individual's features. There's a lot of variation in every ethnicity. Also not a huge difference between the average sizes of men from each area. Half an inch to an inch difference in average size doesn't really mean a whole lot in actual practice.

I think it's a bit of both, men are probably naturally more horny, or at least generally desire more sexual partners than women do. But yeah, I think one of the reasons dating worked better in the past for men was because there was a focus on marriage, and promiscuity was considered shameful. When everyone was set on marriage and had no plans on sleeping around indefinitely, whether that was what they wanted or not, most people did find a spouse. But that was also because being married mattered …

I dunno what he might mean by "too latina" as I'm not super familiar with the culture of where you're from, but if I'm reading between the lines correctly, I'd think maybe what he means is he thinks you dress too revealing or in clothes/jewelry he associates with more scandalous or hypersexual women.

Telling someone who wants sex/relationship to stay single is literally telling them to give up though. Yes telling them to improve and/or lower their standards is usually the options available. But we dunno what their life situation is, or why exactly they're struggling to get dates. It could be some deeper psychological issue, or that they just don't socialize much at all.

You're right that violent men have a certain appeal to women. But it isn't the criminal behaviour that's attracting women to these men. It's that criminals in general are more confident, independent, stronger, tougher and very secure in themselves.

These are Chad traits, if you think about it. This is why it makes no sense to compare viol…

Because when you have sex with lots of strangers or people you don't know very well, you put yourself at risk, and you're not respecting your body. You're divorcing sex from intimacy. You're using your own body for a quick, temporary thrill, and this is usually a maladaptive coping mechanism for trying to fill a void. This is what can make it difficult to form a genuinely intimate sexual connection with a trustworthy person, when there's no thrill to be had, just closeness and trust. Same thing …

I really have no interest in being either famous or an actress, but if I was, I'd probably only agree to sex scenes where you see nothing much, and are very toned down/mild (like some kissing and the rest is hidden under bed sheets) and only partial nudity in non-sexual scenes, like topless or from behind but not full front view. By "non-sexual" I mean like normal scenes of getting dressed, getting out of a shower/bath, being chased by some psycho character, wearing a swimsuit for a beach scene,…

It's happened a lot to me. I've embarrassed myself so much with that lol. Although I have autism so that probably has something to do with it. Lately though I've been holding off more on thinking a guy is into me just because he's friendly or looks at me. I've learned a lot about how men who are just being friendly act. And at this point onwards I won't be making any moves on a guy unless he's more than just friendly. Last time I made this mistake though, I don't think it was just me being weird…

You should be able to know if something is a good or bad decision before making it. At least to some extent. Do you need to eat glass to know it's a bad idea?

Yes, there are some risks that are worth it, if it's anxiety or whatever holding you back from achieving something that's good for you and society, but there are still also stupid risks you should probably avoid. Because they're unhealthy, dangerous, not great in the long run, not well thought-through, bad for society, or just nonsensical. And in dating there are lots of bad decisions that can be made.

It really depends for me. Casual mentions of sexual stuff here and there doesn't really bother me even early on. But if he's going on and on about his sexual interests, brings up kinks, goes full on sexting, asks me if I'm only looking for LTR, etc, that's definitely a red flag to me and I won't be chatting with him the next day, or ever again.

Most older women I've ever known have atrraction to young men, like be it some actor or other celebrity. But none of them actually dated young men, because they knew that would be weird. Of course I never had any issue with that, like it's just a little weird at first. But yeah I do think older women who actually date young men are creepy.

Because experiences of interacting with people is not consistent.

There are plenty of women who think glasses is attractive on men. But that's assuming you wear a style glasses that suit your face, or at least a style that isn't horribly outdated or a gimmicky trend. Some glasses will make you look like a serial killer, other glasses make you look intelligent and classy. So no need to go for contacts and/or lasik, just get a better looking pair of glasses.

That men have a different relationship to sex, different feelings about it. Like they're much more likely to enjoy sex for the sex itself, and that's why so many of them want and enjoy casual sex. I still wouldn't wanna date a man who prioritizes casual sex, but like when in a relationship, I get it's best not to overcomplicate the sexual aspect, and not take it as necessarily negative if he's not into cuddling after sex, or that he focuses on the physical, or there's some kinda separation betwe…

I'd be totally fine with that. I'm getting older, might just not have a chance to have my own kids by the time I'm ready to start dating again. So, yeah I'd actually highly welcome the idea of being a step mom. I think it could be nice. And also less pressure to know or do everything at once. Because if the dad has full custody, I'd assume he knows a lot about parenting his own kids. So I could start small, and build up to it gradually, as I gain their trust.

I've wondered about this a lot too. I think in some cases maybe if they're an older couple, they both used to be quite attractive and physically attracted to each other when they were young, and then over time when the years took their toll, their attractions shift from looks focused to a focus on deeper love. For what they do for each other, make each other feel, all the things they've built together, etc. And maybe that makes them see each other as more attractive looking than they actually ar…

So it makes sense to me the men are frustrated with this. I dunno if it's anyone's fault per se.

Men who only value a woman for sex are usually basing that on her looks, clothing choices, body language, etc, being higher/better than her personality, not on whether she herself wants sex or not. So I dunno if you wear a lot of revealing clothing or just are very pretty, but not a very interesting personality, that would put you in the "only good for sex" category. Having an education isn't necessarily interesting. And there are asexual women who dress like they wanna have sex. Either way thou…

I'm speaking out of ignorance here, since I've never been married or pregnant, but from what I've seen around, it doesn't seem like most men care if their wives gain some weight in pregnancy. They understand this is a thing that just comes with the territory. The problem seems to almost always be, when the wives/mothers don't lose the extra weight after the pregnancy. And you've lost weight before, so you can do it again. But if you want reassurance, learn a healthy diet (long term solutions) an…

It seems most men don't really care if women have some makeup on or not, as long as it's not heavy makeup. That seems to be off-putting to a lot of men. And even with natural looking makeup it can still be, and honestly quite often is, thick layers of makeup just made to look invisible.

There are plenty of things that both genders do that the opposite gender doesn't like. Although women's complaints is mostly in regards to men's clothing, a lot of women also have issues with various facial hair choices men make, and I think that's the closest equivalent to makeup on women. But men in general are usually more incentiviced to do things with their appearance that women find attractive, and are more likely to take an "x looks bad on you" as advice on how to do better. Likely becaus…

I don't think men are more or less resilient to rejection than women. I do however think everyone should learn to handle being rejected. How to handle it: figure out how to move on from a setback, and how to not take it as the end of the world. Maybe handle it like a job application rejection. Fyi I've been rejected by men a lot. Sucked really bad at first (I had so much heartache in my teens and 20's) but now it's just a minor inconvenience and slightly embarrassing. Why should men take the ini…

The red pill isn't about accepting being perpetually single due to shit genetics, that's black pill. The red pill is focusing on how the dating market works, and many red pillers believe in self-improvement to improve one's own sexual market value. Some red pillers hate that competition, but some embrace it as part of life, or as fuel to do better. Being red pill doesn't necessarily mean you're far right, just because it's incompatible with the far left on dating and biology specifically. There …

It's hard for me to know if I think a guy is attractive or not at first glance. They almost all appear neutral to me at first. It usually becomes clearer to me after seeing him or talking to him a few times. That makes it hard to put them in categories based purely on attractiveness. Looks is just not enough for me to go on 99,9% of the time. If anything I'd say initially vast majority of men (70-80%) read as neutral to me, ie there's potential for attraction, and only a small percentage (less t…

Society is pretty good at making all of us feel insufficiently feminine at times. Some of the expectations are a little out there or even contradictory, or just doesn't fit our bodies or our personalities. So I'd say it's normal to feel a little inadequate at times. If you didn't, you'd be a narcissist, pretty much. So see it as a healthy lesson of humility. That said however, I think it's important to find a healthy balance between being feminine and just being you. We can't control our genetic…

Some are just less attracted. Some are old enough themselves, or lonely enough to not care. Men aren't a monolith. Birth rates and marriage rates are all going down though, partially because people are having kids later and later in life.

No but some people will treat others poorly because they perceive them to be of less value. But there's no need to discuss that. They're just being assholes.

No, OP was asking why some men act or seem like women over 25 are disgusting. That's a perspective on people who are not even in this discussion. We dunno how they were actually acting.

I get what you're saying but this is not the only factor. The younger a woman is when she starts having children, the more children she can have before she starts getting into the higher risk age.

Women of those ages are generally the most valuable, because they're at peak fertility, health, etc. But no, if you still take good care of yourself, don't have any major medical issues, etc beyond age 30, there is still a quite high chance men will find you attractive. It's just most likely gonna be men who are a bit older. Men in their 40's and 50's usually have no issue being attracted to women in their 30's.

But going your entire life not wanting to do any strength training because men will think you’re too muscly is bizarre. I don't think most women take it to quite that extreme.

I dunno if that's a true claim or not, but I do know that strength training is important for both sexes. We should place more importance on our health than on the opinions of strangers.

Having a lot of muscle or very lean body is usually not seen as very attractive on women. We usually get more praise for having softer bodies and curves (not talking about obesity, I mean like Marilyn Monroe body type.) Also women generally get more praised for thinness, endurance and flexibility, rather than brute strength or speed. Our bodies are not really built for that anyhow.

Well it's pretty difficult for women to reach orgasm altogether.

No, the only time I think you are allowed to lie or withhold truth about having sex with others, is when your partner is doing the same thing, or is otherwise not being honest, or if they're abusing you. Basically when her "crime" is equal to, or worse than yours. The scenario you brought up is not comparable.

For me, "feeling safe" is basically just getting the vibe (based on actions, mannerisms, word choice, etc) that the person is trustworthy, which I'd say is pretty important to dating.

Yeah, absolutely.

I don't think you're entirely wrong, as you do bring up some good points, but I think it depends on the woman's personality, what kinda women are in/around a man's life, and what his own priorities, interests, and attraction level is. Like, I've had male friends who clearly only hung around me in hopes of getting sex or a relationship, but I've also had male friends who viewed me as "one of the guys." Because that is also a thing that I think you missed. Ie there are men who enjoy having female …

I wouldn't mind it. Personally I like both sharing bed, and being able to have a bed to myself. There are different perks and drawbacks with both, and I think switching it up depending on how either partner feels would be a good thing. Also, I tend to sleep poorly when I have to share bed for a longer time. Especially if the bed isn't very big. Like I wake up stiff and sore, and my bedmate reports that I've been grinding my teeth super loudly. I don't typically grind my teeth, but I have chipped…

Probably because I'm red pill? I'm not really pro-woman, at least not any more than I'm pro-man. I don't think female rapists and abusers are redeemable either. They are just as despicable monsters as the male rapists and abusers are. I don't excuse their behaviour by appealing to patriarchy and "female oppression." But if a woman was an absolute femcel misandrist I'd think that's abhorrent too, but also redeemable.

Good point. I have seen quite a lot of women using the term "incel" to describe virtually any man they don't like, which I agree is not helpful. Basically what I mean by incel are men with kind of a black pill view on life and dating, ie they think everything bad is always women's fault, and nothing they do matters. They see women as liars, deceitful, cheaters, narcissistic, etc seemingly by default. Which I think is beyond recognizing that there are certain differences between men and women tha…

I don't see how this is misogynistic. That women's hormone levels change with the menstrual cycle is a fact, that hormone fluctuations affect mood is a fact, so it's not misogyny to state these things as facts, nor is it to want to avoid people when they're being emotionally unstable, for any reason, including biology. Also, he's not avoiding or judging her because she's a woman, but presumably because of how she actually acts during these specific times of the month. If she hadn't, I doubt he h…

No I don't, but I'd also rather eat a bag of maggots than date men in either of those categories. However, I do think the average incel type is generally more redeemable and less revolting than actual abusers and rapists. So there is a chance I could date a former incel (if the worst he's ever done to women is being mean online etc) but no way in hell I'd give a former abuser/rapist that kinda chance.

However, I have a very low education degree myself (did not finish high school, never set my foot at a university, I had mediocre grades in junior high) so for me it's never been a problem, if I would so choose to only date men with a higher degree, because most men do have a higher degree than me.

Well to some extent you're right. But what's considered attractive has changed quite a lot over the past centuries, and it varies from obe area to another. So, cultural norms changing, stigma loosening, etc, does change what most people consider to be attractive. For example, way back in the 1700's men in tights, powdered wigs and high heels was the golden standard, and for women pale skin and looking sickly. But in modern times suits, jeans and short hair is valued in men, and a tan and rosy ch…

Yeah I guess. I straight and prefer bi men but I don't think anyone would argue that's heterophobic. So there has to be ways that these kinda preferences are not about buying into negative stereotypes about this or that sexual orientation. Unless we're gonna apply some kinda double standard that anyone LGBT can't be criticized but straights are free reign, and at least I personally don't think that's okay.

Not necessarily, but it kinda depends. If it's a hobby you enjoy but the real driving factor to join a group about it is to find someone to connect with and date, I don't think that's bad. But if it's a hobby you have zero interest in and the only thing you do there is asking women to date you, that's probably gonna give bad vibes about you in that group. The point of finding a date at a hobby group or meetup is to find someone you have something in common with, ie the hobby you both go there fo…

It's more about attraction or lack thereof, imo. Whether the people someone thinks are attractive are in their league or not. And men are just as disgusted when a woman they think is unattractive is showing interest in them. I've gotten some really vile comments from men who thought I looked unattractive. Men are not shy from expressing disgust.

Not for life, but I'm fine with being celibate for several years when a relationship has ended. That is, as long as I get to masturbate. Sex with a partner only matters to me if there's a deeper, emotional connection. If I'm not loved I don't wanna be touched.

Yeah sounds like she manipulated him into making her pregnant. If she wanted a free donor that's fine, but if she so desperately want to be a single mom, she should take the full financial responsibility for that parenting as well. Women who want their children financially supported by a man should do so with men who want (their) children. I don't understand how that is a difficult concept to grasp, but yeah seems a lot of women these days just refuse any kinda personal responsibility.

I really think both men and women are responsible for creating and upholding that dynamic. And yeah, I think that is at least partially biological. Yes women generally prefer traditionally masculine men, but men also generally prefer traditionally feminine women.

I think it's a little of both, but more on the social side. Being standoffish is kinda connected to being introverted, which there could be both social and biological reasons for. And there are both introverted and extroverted women, likewise with men.

No, 26 isn't very old. I see women finding partners and getting married even way up in their 40's. It just gets harder with age (and if you stop taking care of yourself), your dating pool shifts, to older men and men who are done fucking around, which can be a positive thing. It doesn't make it impossible to find a good guy. If you're unhappy in your relationship, don't let your age stop you.

I'm glad my suggestions were appreciated. How we carry ourselves can absolutely make a difference in how we feel about ourselves/our bodies.

For example: lovebombing, asking for way too much money very soon into the relationship, is "too good to be true", having weird secrets, weird things upset him like for ex you hugging your pets, he doesn't want you to hang out with your friends or family, he starts making weird ultimatums based on your behaviour, etc. I could go on forever listing things, because it's gonna be different for each abusive person, but generally i…

I have a deeper voice too, and try to speak more softly. There's a youtuber (one of the several "how to be more elegant" type channels, can't remember which one) who once said something about women's voices, and she said that no matter how deep or high, a softer tone matters more than pitch. And with the examples she showed, that made sense to me. Now how to actually alter the way you speak, it comes down to practice. I probably get the most practice from talking to cashiers at stores, because t…

I've dated several bisexual men but never been cheated on (to my knowledge) so I can only answer in theory, but I think generally it wouldn't matter to me, but similarly to you in reverse I think I'd feel slightly worse if he cheated with another woman. Because I'm not male, I don't have a penis, so if that's what my partner was craving I can't be all that mad about it. But if it's another woman he wanted, then I'd have much more of a reason to feel like I must have failed in some way. At least …

For me it entirely depends on the situation. I quite frequently get compliments on my hair, clothes, makeup and nails, fairly often also on my personality, skills, etc, and rarely on my body unless I'm actively losing weight on exercising a lot. It's both from strangers and people I know, men and women. This doesn't bother me at all, if anything it boosts my confidence and makes me think I'm doing something right. The only kinda compliments that bother me are sexual compliments outside of a (con…

There has always been different understandings of what modesty is. Back in Victorian times it meant not showing ankles but then they had corsets and bustles to show off and emphasize curves. During medieval times modesty meant being covered from head to toe in loose fitting garments and covering your hair. During the second world war, it meant wearimg knee length skirts and form-fitted shirts/jackets that didn't show cleavage. So no I really don't think the current idea of modesty as "form fitti…

This is exactly why I have no quarrels with agreeing with these men that sex is a need, because I don't equate need with requirement. But also because I feel like sex is a need for me as well, even though I'm a woman, but without ever demanding any men to provide me with sex (not that I would need to, but that's beside the point.)

Historically, most people married around age 20, and people marrying before age 18-ish was generally looked down upon. Dating and having sex in your teens before marriage was considered a sin in most of the western world up until quite recently. Places like the US and Europe were largely Christian and social norms surrounded Christian values, which was that marriage was for adults and sex was for married couples only.

I see dating as somewhat transactional, but not quite like that.

That makes sense to me. A permanently sterilizing procedure is not comparable to using a device that only offers temporary infertility, which can be removed at will. I don't understand women who are so reluctant to using any of the gazillion different types of birth control we have at our disposal, and want to put that responsibility entirely on the man, when we're the ones that get pregnant. I think we have way more of a reason to want to take responsibility for that.

This is just guesswork and assumptions, e.g. "feelings over facts." No, it is a fact that not using birth control the way it's intended is the biggest reason for why it fails. If used as intended, things like IUD, condoms, pills, etc, works 97-99% of the time, but they're listed as only working some 70-80% of the time, because this is not how these methods are used in actual practice.

What "bad decision" did they make, specifically? Having protected sex with their partners? Most likely not taking their birth control, or getting it checked/replaced regularly as prescribed.

If disliking people for their actual behaviours is misogynist now just because they're women, then feminism has completely lost the plot.

Pregnancy is a natural consequence of sex, not a punishment. Thus it doesn't make sense to consider abortion a human right. What is a right is for people to choose to not have sex.

I think it's because: 1. Far more men than women watch porn a lot, or get addicted to it. Before videos, soft porn magazines where almost always targetting men. Historically it's usually been men who required their partner to look a certain way, while women were more concern with money and protection/safety from a partner. 2. Women are more likely to randomly cry and be vocal about how they feel, while men are more likely to remain level headed, except when angry. Yes this might be more so down …

To have empathy for other people and be a good man. Then if he's more traditional or liberal I don't really care. There are good values on both sides of the political spectrum.

Eh, I don't generally complain about objectification, but there's a time and a place for it. In private, at parties, in dating apps, etc, I don't mind because that's kinda expected. Even if it's someone I'm not attracted to, it's not usually gonna upset me. But if it's in a grocery store, at work, at a hospital, etc, being objectified feels kinda bad because it's just not a good time and place for it. So, it's not actually ever objectification that bothers me, it's tactlessness. Not even gonna a…

Clearly he wasn't as nice and amicable as he portrayed himself to be. Although we can't know how either of them acted during the marriage. Perhaps he was very demanding and controlling, or perhaps she was, or maybe both were good people to begin with but irritated each other to a point where he became violent.

Literally I have that amount of muscle though, from just cleaning my home regularly and dragging my heavy groceries up the stairs a few times a week. So I don't actually expect any more from men than I get to offer myself, nor do I think that amount of muscle requires a lot of work. It's easy enough that most women can achieve it. I dunno if that changes your view at all though. But yeah no I have no interest in dating literal couch potatoes.

But I clearly said that I don't care if a guy is muscular or not, and then I said it seems most women indeed do care about that. How is that contradictory?

I agree but I think the problem is most women either aren't into hookups or are not up front about wanting that, and a lot of men want just sex. So as a result there's a conflict of wants. Women having trouble finding reliable men who genuinely want an LTR for more than just sex, and men having trouble finding women who just want casual sex. This leads to men trying to get hookups from women who just want an LTR and women trying to get commitment from men who just want sex. Obviously the key is …

One thing I think helps finding that balance is to mirror how much affection the other person gives out, or just a little bit more if you're expected to lead. Might help to think of dating as a series of stages, unlocking things little by little over time. Maybe also a good idea to ask (preferably happily) married men how they manage to play their dating game right. But basically I think the balance is to keep the ball rolling, but slowly and consistently.

Sure it's not our problem per se, but if we want men to change and improve, we are literally taking on that responsibility in hopes of improving our own dating, no? Men's problems in dating and women's problems in dating will unavoidably overlap because of the simple thing that men and women are dating each other. So if we want to improve our own dating prospects, isn't it just logical to say we also gotta help each other become better partners?

Not wanting to be around unpleasant women who dismiss your feelings, struggles, pains, achievements, etc, who are mean, belittling, rude, etc, is not misogynistic.

I'm currently single, and yeah, in general I care what men find attractive. Although it is only to a certain extent, if it's info I can even use to my advantage. Like for ex I have tattoos and one facial piercing, and I'm not gonna remove those to attract men. But knowing what sorta clothes, hairstyles, nails and makeup men generally tend to like on women, I do take that into consideration for how I develop my style and how I get ready in the morning. I want for it to feel natural though (as opp…

I used to be transgender, and now trying to reclaim my female nature. So I worry a lot about not being feminine enough. Actually I know for a fact that I'm too masculine for most men's interest. And for good reason. I don't expect them to be attracted to stuff like facial hair or a receeding hairline in a woman. It kinda puts me off to have these features too, and I don't think I even want them sexualized. Which is why I'm working on changing these features before getting back into dating. I put…

I am quite average, and most men I've dated have been average too. Pretty much all of my friends are average. I would have no problem making more friends with with average people (both sexes) and dating, having sex with and marrying an average man. Assuming he's compatible with me as an individual. I quite easily find beauty and satisfaction in the mundane. So for me, average people are really not all the same, or necessarily boring. It just means they have a fairly equal split between attractiv…

I live in a tourist resort so I'm well aware of how tourism works. It's just that there seems to be a difference between the mindless tourists almost sinking my island in the summers, and my friends who avoid common tourist traps and spend months learning the language and customs of the places they visit. Sure, the travel itself may not be what they learn the most from, but the travelling is what prompts them to do some research and put work into it. Especially the ones who are really passionate…

I'm not saying they're scholars, but also nor am I. Whether someone learns stuff from their travels or not is kinda individual, don't you think? Some people travel because they have an actual interest in learning about different cultures and languages, while some are just mindless tourists. Far from every woman is an insufferable instagrammer. That's just on Instagram (and yeah, tiktok, etc.) I'm talking about real life people.

Well, I preach communication because it's important. I know I struggle to communicate my own sexual needs with a partner, but that doesn't mean I'm not trying or don't care. I do care and I am trying. It takes practice and time to become comfortable with communicating such sensitive things. I dunno about other women but maybe they too are trying.

Why do you think men cater to women? Because traditionally men are expected to court and impress women, while women more so expected to just do whatever the man wants. Exceot in recent decades expectations on women have gone down (largely thanks to feminism) while expectations on men kinda haven't. This leads to men nowadays doing more to cater to women. Why are women more in demand? Probably because women have lower libido and usually have an easier time getting sexual pleasure from mastirbatio…

It's for the same reason people assume feminists are all women or that all women must be feminist. In reality, people of both sexes are on both/all sides of the political spectrum.

Sounds like maybe it just a confusing situation altogether, and like maybe she didn't know how to best word it either. Also sounds like she probably just had better chemistry with the new guy.

While these things like biology and reluctance to even try to achieve orgasm on women's part absolutely do play a part, that is far from the whole story. Men's orgasms have always been considered more valuable in society because it's highly connected to reproduction, and generally more visual.

I'm currently single, but what I think I bring to the table is: compassion, empathy, a high sex drive, space and tools to help my partner grow as a person, loyalty, creativity, genuine interest in understanding and getting to know my partner, fashion advice, actual honesty about wanting to split the bill, etc. I've also often been told that I have a calming effect on people, that I have a nice ass and that I'm good at blowjobs. Additionally I have a keen interest in men's issues in society as I'…

It does affect people psychologically though, ie behaviours, thought patterns, emotions, etc, which is what matters to dating. Not how it biologically/chemically manifests in the brain. Besides, a lot of mental illnesses (like depression, for ex) do have a neurological cause kinda similarly to autism. So in actual reality, the difference between psychological vs neurological condition is extremely blurry with a ton of overlap. So why exactly does it matter so much if some people choose to catego…

I really don't see the issue because women who don't cheat have nothing to worry about, a DNA test will only confirm what they're saying, and women who do cheat deserve to have the truth forced out of them, and men who live with cheating girlfriends/wives deserve to know that truth. I've never cheated so I just don't see how a paternity test would ever be a threat to me, should I ever become pregnant.

I can separate sex and emotion, I can enjoy sex for just the sake of the sex, but thing is sex feels way, way better when there's mutual love and commitment as well. Sex without commitment usually also means the man does not give a shit about your pleasure, safety or comfort. Fyi I used to be into casual sex in my 20's but then I lost my taste for it when I realized the men only wanted to use me as a cum bucket, and I kept letting them because I was too traumatized to consider my own sexual need…

Yes, most women want a man who's above her own level, but I think the reasons why do matter and if the woman in question is even aware of what her own level is, and how high above her level she's aiming.

I have actually done that quite a lot in my past, but every time I tried it went kinda sour for one reason or another, leading to my eventual breakup.

Yeah, that's also a risk, although I think it goes for a lot of things.

I do see your point, but I don't think there's a perfect equivalence. The best I can think of is actually just women who are promiscuous. Because it's generally easy for women to get sexual partners but difficult for men, sexual experience is valued in men while being virgin or low body count is valued in women. So if we flip that, ie look at male virgins and promiscuous women, I'd think they're the closest equivalents to each other, as they both more or less "lack value" for the same reason. Ho…

I have a better suggestion: be a safe and secure option but also be honest about that you only want casual sex, and treat the women really well during those encounters. Make sure the pleasure is mutual, that there is concern for protection, and good communication about sexual boundaries.

I appreciate that, it does get frustrating at times. But I'd guess it's somewhat similar to how much of society treats men it perceives as "weak:" you just gotta prove yourself and what you're capable of a lot more.

You hit the nail on the head there.

Danny DeVito. Sure he'd still be a funny guy, but without all that fame and money I doubt he'd have nearly as much success with conventionally attractive women as he's had throughout his career. Because he's always been overweight, balding and he's super short (4'10.)

Most basic thing is spending enough time with him to see if he keeps his word or not. Beyond that is seeing how he treats other people, especially people he has no sexual interest in.

I don't think so. Even tje man's straight male friends recognized that he was good looking. But no one mentioned the woman's looks.

I don't think those are the real reasons people think straight dating is disadvantageous for women.

Women are generally very sensitive about what they weigh. It's been a meme since the victorians ate tape worms to lose weight back in the 1800's. So what most women want from men about that is for you to handle it delicately. Which means sugarcoat it, and focus on the health aspect instead of on how she looks.

It matters because it's a proof that metal guys can get metal girlfriends. It means that if you are a metal guy, you do have a chance with metal girls even if you're not conventionally attractive.

I really don't think they do though. These niche hobbies seem fairly equally common among men vs women. If anything, I think they're more common among women.

Because those among that 63% who'd be fine with dating women of their own age would likely have zero problem finding women to date/marry, once they're above 30.

If men would disappear, I think women would struggle to get society functional again, but I'm sure they would eventually. They'd just need some time to adjust. Yes, some specific tasks would be more challenging for women to do, like heavy lifting. But cranes, fork lifts, wheelbarrows, and all sorts of machinery already exists, and women can get heavy lifting done with the help of such tools. Like for ex I drag home some 20kg of groceries once or twice a week just fine by foot... using the help o…

Yes, that's my experience too. The guys with long hair and eyeliner were always the most popular. There's a niche for almost anyone I guess. People with alt fashion generally prefer to date within their such genre. Gamer girls also tend to prefer dating gamer guys. And so on. It's kinda like with class, age and many other things: most people wanna date within their own kind. It's whenever you look outside of that, that you may be judged negatively.

Absolutely this. I used to go to a lot of metal bars, synth/goth clubs, etc and the chubby metalhead guys got lucky almost every night. Of course they wouldn't be popular with the sorority type girls. They were popular with metal girls and goth girls. Ime goths and metalheads were mixing together a lot. Also my goth bestie dated and married a chubby metalheal guy back in our 20's. Sure, he was tall, but not conventionally attractive in any other way, but he was really popular with both men and w…

Probably because most women do not settle down until they're in their 30's, and they generally do so with men of the same age. They used to settle down in their 20's, but this age has been going up in the last couple of decades or so. This is probably why most men under 30 aren't getting picked. Because most young women are still busy partying with Chad or focusing on their careers.

I think it's sometimes a good thing, sometimes bad, kinda depending on the guy. If he doesn't care in the sense that he does not think a woman's value is diminished by her profession or income, then I have a hard time seeing that as a bad thing. Seeing someone's value beyond their contribution to society, is largely appreciated, I'd say. Because I don't think it should matter what someone does for a living, obviously within some level of reason as some jobs are just sketchy or morally questionab…

This is extremely simplified but I think in a very general sense, women favor the emotional connection/bonding they can get with men, while men more so favor the physical/sexual aspect they can get with women. You don't have to be best friends to have great sex and generally get along together. But you do kinda need to be best (or at least close) friends to share a close emotional connection. Obviously it's more complicated when we look at individual people, but I have noticed over time that mos…

The real problem is the indivual men who lie to women about wanting a relationship and then ditch them as soon as they get sex. They're the ones ruining it for the good men who are honest and actually want an LTR, and need to know if there's sexual compatibility or not before committing. To clarify I'm not blaming men as a whole. There are absolutely shitty women who ruin things for good women too.

People thinking this is some kinda double standard, but it really isn't. When you want a hookup you have sex immediately if the chemistry is right, because then it doesn't matter if the guy sticks around or not, or if you have anything else in common. But if you want a relationship then it's better to wait with sex because you want the guy to stick around and not just leave once sex has happened. Which happens a lot. There are women who like both hookups and relationships, and if they'd always a…

If that is true, then a woman who is supposed to be supported by the state while being a single mother due to many times her own bad choices should do it on her own but the other taxpayers have to foot the bill.

Those who get a lot of opposite sex attention can afford to be picky. Also because when you get thousands of responses on for ex dating sites, you likely also get a larger variety of people liking you, depending on how attractive you are.

You'd naturally compare them to each other to figure out which one is the best for you. This is probably a really crappy analogy, b…

Yeah, it became a standard eventually because most men expect women to go down on them. A 100 years ago, any kinda oral sex was seen as taboo and only something a prostitute would do.

Whether any random person who has similar views to me decides to call themselves a feminist or egalitarian doesn't really matter when it's feminism the ideology that holds most of the political power. like abortion laws? like vance and trump wanting to spend taxpayer money on big government to monitor all women of childbearing age?

Yeah, I definitely do. I'm not a feminist though. The more I've looked into it, it seems most of feminism wants equity and basically coddle women and treat us like perpetual victims who can do no wrong. But mostly I'm just tired of the victim mentality and taking away of women's agency. It kinda ironically feels more misogynistic than the supposed opposition sometimes. I also really dislike how so much of feminism is just about hating on men, and walking over men to lift up women. I don't want t…

There are about a million options between these two extremes, which I think the actual average person goes for. Sure, most women may be sleeping aroynd in their 20's, but most of them are not more serious about it than the Chads who pump and dump then. Then most women settle down in their 30's and knowing they're not as hot as they used to be, and focus more on stability and compatibility than looks, go for a guy who's closer to average (maybe he's a 6 if she's a 5) and they either live happily …

I've generally gotten a negative impression of moms in general throughout my life. Not my own mom, ironically, but female friends with kids have often been insufferable. Like as soon as they get kids, that becomes literally their entire world and good luck talking about anything other than the kid. Like it seems really common that when women have kids, they lose their entire personality to being moms. This has not been my experience with dads. Sure, they often get focused on the kid and being a …

The biggest hindrance to people viewing womens sexuality as "valid" as mens is the inability of even feminists to acknowledge womens agency in sex and recognizing womens sexual abuse. This is it right there. I've tried to be a feminist a lot in the past but whenever I've tried to genuinely give feminism a chance, any good critiques they've had have been overshadowed by this assumption that women are somehow incapable of knowing what's good for ourselves, and it's treating us like intellectually …

I started having trouble with rude/disrespectful/abusive males already in 1st grade, and they were the same age as me, so 6-7. I was then relentlessly bullied mostly by boys, at times even sexually assaulted, while the girls usually left me alone, with only one exception. In my teens I met quite a lot of guys my age who wanted me sexually and went to great (immoral) lengths to get it. Growing up it was always adult men who were genuinely protective or at least just showing basic respect. This mi…
/r/PurplePillDebate02/08/24 09:13 AM

Yeah, I think it does disqualify them. Because sex workers will have sex with any man who pays for it, it has nothing to do with how attractive, strong or how good of a leader the guy is. Any guy could get lots of sex from sex workers, even below average attractive men. So the only flex there is to a guy having lots of sex with sex workers is that he must be rich enough to afford it (unless he's going into debt due to it.) It's not a flex on however attractive he is, however much social status h…

Obviously if a guy isn't particularly attractive he has to be able to offer something else instead. What's so mysterious about this? Doesn't the same go for less attractive women? Like maybe she's a great cook, super sweet, extremely loyal and always down to please the man sexually, then maybe more men would consider her wife material even if she has some unfortunate facial features or whatever. Dating is transactional, even if preferences are largely subjective. Most people want a partner they …

That seems overly complicated for not a lot of benefit. Just tell the guy up front that if he's not willing to commit within x amount of time, the relationship is over. Tell him he's wasting your time. At most, you can try to talk to him about why he doesn't wanna commit, if there's any chance he's willing to discuss that and if there's something that can be worked on. Because sometimes it can be for innocent reasons like fear of getting hurt in an eventual divorce for ex. Couple's therapy could…

I think men choosing to lie just to get sex are awful people. They're taking advantage of honest women. There are men who complain about women taking way to long in the dating process before being willing to have sex, but this is literally why most women refuse sex on the first date. Even if the guy is super hot and we're super horny for him, we still gotta wait just to weed out these kinds of manipulative liars.

I'd say the line is when you either have extremely unfortunate genetics, or some really severe disability that's simply not physically possible to improve. But even then I've seen men with missing limbs or severe burn scars become attractive enough to score objectively highly attractive women, so even then there is a chance. Just probably a very small chance. Obviously the more, and more severe, issues you have, the harder self-improvement is gonna be. But there are very few scenarios where it's…

No, I'm saying women lowering their standards just isn't gonna happen unless they have a personal motivation for doing so. That's just human nature? We're all a bit selfish deep down.

I kinda agree that women approaching probably wouldn't likely solve the dating issues that average and below average men have, but thing is I never thought that's why women should approach men more? I kinda thought it was because men were tired of always having to do the approaching, planning and paying for dates? If women approached men more, then it would likely even out that issue, at least somewhat. But of course, most women would still go for above average attractive men, since that's what …

Thing is I'm generally fine with dating men within roughly 20 years around my age (from 10 years younger to 10 years older) and could be flexible with another couple of years, but I draw the limit at dating men literally the same age as my dad.

I think men and woman are equal psychologically and in most physical aspects, but obviously I understand that there is a biological difference between being of the male or female sex.

I think to some extent differing cleaning standards do actually contribute to this.

I call bullshit on that tbh.

You didn't really give a reason as to why it's unethical to specifically look for a virgin, them supoosedly more vulnerable to mistreatment wouldn't make the action itself unethical.

What's unethical about going for virgins specifically: women who lack experience is sex also often lack knowledge in what are red flags, what they should expect, what is reasonable behaviour to tolerate from a partner, etc. Inexperienced women often fall into the trap of ignoring physical discomfort, pain, their own boundaries, etc because the guy assures them that's how sex is supposed to be.

And yes sure, anyone witnessing a crime or potential crime should contact the police about it, but it's still not the responsibility of a random stranger to literally step in as a parent. So wasting of taxpayer dollars, which is also been a problem associated with single motherhood? How is caring…

This is really good advice, all in all. The only thing I wanna comment on is that specifically multiple orgasms is not really necessary to aim at on a regular basis. From my point of view (and I think for other women too) all I really want is for men to just treat the female orgasm as equally important as the male orgasm. Then how many times the woman cums per session I think is kinda less important. Also far from all women can do multiple orgasms, or may just prefer having only one, unless it's…

Eh, this isn't random men's responsibility. It's either on the single mothers themselves if they decided to shut the father out of their lives, or it's on the father if he abandoned his child. Either way, these children are largely their parents' responsibility. Secondly they're the resonsibility of social services, the schools they go to, etc. But they're never the responsibility of random strangers who've likely never even met the kid. Other people's kids are not your problem, unless you're th…

Thing is we really don't have much control over other people's actions. Creeps are gonna creep no matter how we feel about it. The only thing we really can control is our own actions. So if you do notice an increase in catcalling, harassment, etc when wearing something that effectlively looks like a bikini or otherwise showing a lot of skin, and decrease in such reactions when more covered up... and you want less (or ideally no) such reactions, the logical thing is to dress according to what res…

For men who aren't fat themselves, I think it's an absolutely reasonable standard to have. But the average person is overweight nowadays in most of the western world (especially US) and thin women generally don't wanna date men who are chubby or otherwise not fit. The male equivalence to "thin yet curvy" women is healthy 10-20% bodyfat and at least a bit toned. So when chubby men don't wanna date chubby women it is seen as a "too high" standard because it's demanding something he isn't willing t…

It's not universial advice, it's said as a suggestion for a (relatively) easy way to find women you have things in common with. Then if it's specifically hobbies you have in common, or some other stuff, isn't what matters. It's just generally easier to find people with the same hobbies as you right off the bat, compared to finding people with opinions, food taste, values, etc you both share. So it's not bad advice just because it's not applicable to everyone, but I do believe it's harder to find…

Well I was kinda immature and gullible back in my early 20's and late teens, so I saw no issue with dating older men. (For ex I briefly dated a 27yo guy when I was 18.) I thought it was "cool" or whatever. But as I continued doing that I started noticing issues I couldn't have foreseen or understood when I was younger.

Yeah, exactly, it can be like that. Largely because of how the body processes/responds to DHT (dehydrotestosterone) and how much of the free testosterone the body converts to DHT. Having a higher sensitivity to DHT is more commonly the actual reason a guy has more pronounced/stronger masculine traits, than how much free testosterone he has. Also depends on which T traits generally run more strongly in his family. Like for ex some men just have higher genetic potential for a thick beard than musc…

Good thing then that testosterone traits are not evenly distributed in every single man, just like estrogen traits are not evenly distributed in every single woman. It tends to be kinda random, regardless of actual testosterone levels, even though those with higher T generally have a bit more/stronger of those traits. Other genetics also come into play, not just hormones. That said I personally don't really care which exact T traits a guy has, as long as it's clear he went through puberty at all…

Being independent, assertive, daring to take up space, etc is important to me in regards to being a strong person standing up to my own values.

Yes. A very mediocre man who loves cats is instantly more attractive to me, because I love cats, and that's a mutual interest, and having things in common makes me like people.

I kinda both agree and disagree. Men being too invested in women's approval will likely lose themselves in the process and maybe even start resenting women.

True, it could be read either way, I suppose. Yeah, if body count is the only information you have about a woman, it makes sense to draw statistical conclusions from that.

History of cheating is not the same as history of high body count.

Someone being a virgin also does not guarantee they won't cheat further down the line. This is a question of morality, not of libido.

While I think women's sexuality is actually a component to this, men's sexuality is as much if not more so the reason behind men's actions. You can't blame women for your own libido.

It does put into question of what the guy's morals are.

There are two sides to this, I think. On one hand there's the men who are excruciatingly selfish in bed, ie they don't take care of themselves (washing, grooming, dressing nicely, etc) yet expect the woman to always look her best, they only care about their own pleasure during sex and considers sex to be over when he orgasms - and on the other hand there are women who blame their every possible sexual problem on the man not trying hard enough, even things that he couldn't possibly have any contr…

Yeah I mean women in groups tend to be the worst, imo, and I'm a woman. I also get tired of the drama and neuroticism I often see in other women. (I definitely get called a "pickme" a lot lol.) I'd much rather deal with how unfunny some guys' jokes are. Although there are men who get terrible in groups too, ie the ones who constantly end up in pissing contests and do increasingly worse bets and pranks. It really depends on the friend group in question though, and the maturity level of the people…

Nah I think that's totally fine. Some women prefer men with more or similar amount of experience, but I think what most women really want is a guy who's considerate in bed, willing to listen and learn, cares about her pleasure, is being safe, respects her boundaries, etc. I think a lot of people just associate that with experience, but there's not actually any correlation. It's a mindset and has a lot more to do with personality and personal priorities, imo. Fyi I have been with several less exp…

It's definitely difficult for me to define in a general sense. So I'll just use some of my personal experiences as examples of what I think is acting entitled in dating/sex: When I tell a guy very clearly that I won't be changing my clothing style or quit smoking for him, etc but then he still insists I should do exactly that and gets uncomfortably pushy about it.

Yeah I think there's some truth to that women tend to be more picky, because the reproductive burden is largely on us. But I don't think it's as extreme as you suggest. A 2/10 woman might get with a 3/10 man but she's likely gonna struggle in dating a lot and may sadly likely end up childless and lonely. Once beautiful/successful women who later on lose their beauty/status are also more frequently divorced than once handsome/successful men who later on lose their beauty/status. Single women are …

I set up more rules and tests for guys who have red flags, but I still want to give a chance to prove themselves that they're not toxic. So the reason I give some men more of a hard time in dating has nothing to do with with their attractiveness level, status, money, height or any such thing, unless we're talking like a homeless guy, or a man who has some serious disfigurement, as I might give them a slightly reluctant chance too, if I felt there's some kinda spark.

I agree that acting entitled to dating is just shitty behaviour regardless of whatever dating struggles someone has.

While I think you have some point, like there's no guarantee which of our genetics we pass down to our children, it's a little bit silly to suggest traits like height, soft/harsh facial features, etc, have nothing gendered about them.

People give dating advice like that because those are things that demonstrably do increase the chances of a guy getting a girlfriend.

Sometimes people end up viewing the opposite sex as commodities, but I really don't think this is particularly common in real life, no. At most, I can see how using labels like "alpha" and "beta" might be helpful if it does describe a personality type and you're not being needlessly mean about it.

I don't see how these two things are correlated? People want equality in the relationship dynamic because more and more people are realizing that there's no type of behaviour or role that's "better suited" for one sex or the other due to biology, as women are perfectly capable of earning money, being leaders, building and repairing things, etc, and men are perfectly capable of taking care of children, cleaning, cooking, doing laundry, etc. So it just makes more sense for each couple to decide fo…

Those things do factor in, but it can be for a gazillion different reasons any individual woman rejects you.

I can't speak for all women, but for me it's quite difficult to get pleasure from sex unless things are done in a specific way, which is just a lot easier to make happen through masturbation. And I'm not even putting it on men to "make me" have pleasure, I do all that I can to make myself have a good time, but if all the dude cares about is his own load, I don't have a chance of enjoying it.

Women have been reluctant to engage in casual sex since the dawn of time. It's mostly because of the pregnancy risk, and that's still an issue, especially considering most men in modern time don't wanna wear condoms. But there's some research to suggest that women are in general more careful and selective because if we get pregnant, we'd greatly benefit from 1) knowing who the father is, and 2) having the father stick around to help with the parenting.

Of course I personally see nothing wrong with marrying for love.

Technically you are correct, but problem is discrimination still happens (towards both genders) which isn't being enforced, or the perpetrators aren't being punished like the law says they should.
