Ok, this is too much to respond to in detail. I don’t agree that even an unhealthy obsession with your own perceived oppression necessarily makes a person sexist. It can, but it’s not automatic. I think many of those comments are hyperbolic, and might even agree some are sexist. But they are equivalent to many things I’ve seen on here from men who make negative generalizations about women, and if those are the worst examples you can find on TwoX, they pale in comparison to other comments I’ve se…

Look, if you don’t believe women have legitimate claims of discrimination and oppression, past or present, then every conversation about that obvious fact will strike you as “misandrist.” Facts matter, history matters, and certain groups of people have very legitimate complaints about social, political, and economic inequality. You can disagree with those claims and/or argue about the extent to which those conditions still exist today, but they are not ipso facto sexist/racist/whatever just beca…

Yeah, read the second paragraph of my last comment again. This is exactly what I mean. I think a lot of the posts on TwoX are circle jerk self-defeatism and oppression porn, and that’s why I don’t go there much. But to insist that posts and comments like that are remotely equivalent to the pervasive, in your face misogyny that you see in manosphere spaces is just a straight up lie.

I'll give you a C+ for effort at trying to explain away the rank misogyny in each of those examples. Not even close on the first and third one. And I'm really doubting the pervasiveness of comments on TwoX that expressly say "men are evil." I just searched on there and found a single example with no upvotes. So, I'm not buying that. There is a substantial difference between complaining about how members of the other sex have treated you and sometimes making unfair generalizations about them and …

You really think this sub is more anti female than a sub like twoxchromosomes is anti male? Obviously, yes. Find me comments on TwoX equivalent to calling women "the inferior form of human," joking about "human trafficking" women, and whatever the hell this is, and then we'll talk. Those examples don't even scratch the surface of the shit I've seen on PPD. The tendency of some men on here to resort to violent fantasies and claims that women shouldn't have any civil rights is astounding. I have a…

Define “inordinate commitment.” What are men who are obsessed with the sexual histories of their partners providing to women that men who don’t have this particular issue are not? I think it’s far more about the man needing to feel “special” himself. And his inclination to see sex as fundamentally debasing to women and women as trophies rather than partners. Every woman you’ve ever wanted, or gone on a date with, or had sex with, or dated seriously, or married has had sexual thoughts about many …
/r/PurplePillDebate16/06/24 10:55 PM

That was a lot of words to just say that those men don’t respect women as full people with their own interests and set of desires, see sex as something that is done “to” women rather than something women independently seek out, and feel like they own their partner’s sexuality. without that veneer of specialness, if a man saw his woman like any other woman,as just a woman, it would be very very hard for that man to make extraordinary commitment to an ordinary person. And yet somehow women (and ma…

This makes me sad, and it is not my experience of sex as a woman. What you’re describing is absolutely the traditional conception of sex, which is very one-sided in favor of men’s pleasure. And it’s definitely true, as you describe, that many women don’t experience orgasm or much pleasure during partnered sex with men, primarily because most men are focused on PIV and the vast majority of women don’t orgasm from that. But sex is only “for men” if we let our antiquated social scripts win out. The…

Third, the premise of this post is a pointless pissing match over who has it worse. These posts and posts like it do nothing to heal the divide between men and women, which is what this sub should be about. I have no immediate comment on anything else you’ve said, but I did have to laugh at this. The entire purpose of this sub is to have a pointless pissing match over who has it worse.

There’s a lot to respond to here. But I’ll just note a few things: A ton of women who say that appearance doesn't matter nearly as much as personality, or charm, or having the spark, the chemistry. That is definitively not the same as saying appearance doesn’t matter or isn’t a significant component, which is what you claimed above that women were saying. What those women are saying aligns with how my attraction works, and I imagine the vast majority of women would endorse the same thing. A guy …

coming from the gender that assumes the worst in men over a... handful of comments Lmao, I should have noticed the “black pill” flair before I tried to engage with you. then why is OP telling men to read romance novels to better understand a small percentage of women who are old you cant have it both ways. There’s this amazing concept where two distinct people can have different perspectives. Have a wonderful day.

First of all, you can’t assume anything from a handful of Reddit comments. and who cares about percentage Lol. If it came out that 2% of women read one or more romance novels per year, and the average reader is 42 years old, I would hope you’d be open to changing your mind about how representative those books are of women’s general preferences in men.

No, I don’t think women complaining about those tropes proves your point. I think the existence of those tropes in romance novels shows there’s a market for erotic novels containing them. So, yes, some portion of women like reading stuff like that. How is that a revelation? And what percentage of women even read romance novels with any regularity? Is it even 5%?

Most people lie to themselves about one thing or another, but the attraction one seems to be extremely consistent and prevalent across most women I've ever met, talked to, or heard talk about what they find attractive. I don't claim to know better than them how their own attraction works, I just notice how consistently what they say and what they believe about their attraction, consistently fails to match up with the choices and actions they take. The two cannot be true without there being some …

You just accused “most” women of not understanding how their own attraction works and “lying to themselves” about it. The number of times I’ve seen claims like this on here from men is truly amazing. I can’t even imagine the level of inflated ego a person must have to assume they know better than another person how that person’s own attraction works. As I’m sure you’ve heard, women are not visually stimulated the way men are. There are many other, more seemingly subtle factors at play in women’s…

Non sequitur. Men place far more emphasis on looks than women do. Men have the ability to compensate for less than stellar looks with other traits; women do not. If you are surprised to learn after reaching adulthood that the less physically attractive you are, the less attention you’ll get, you’ve been living in a comfortable delusion that no woman has had the luxury of experiencing.

Ha, I was referring specifically to PPD. I’m convinced the women who come here are all masochists. Twitter pales in comparison to the shit I see here on a daily basis. There's a universal shared perspective and comedians that are able to tap into that are the most successful. Ehh, I think it’s obviously true that cultural attitudes play a huge role in what and who is considered funny vs. unfunny.

🤦🏽‍♂️ You've missed the part where I wrote that men absolutely love funny women. Also, attention seeking behavior from a man is just as unattractive, jokes or no jokes. Alright, I think we just disagree here. I do think (many) men like a certain type of funny woman. But it’s not the same type of “funny” that is accepted and valued in men. Take the exact same behavior, and a man will be labeled hilarious while a woman will be labeled off-putting and attention-seeking. The more vulgar the humor, t…

what you've described crosses into attention-seeking behavior. To me a woman who constantly seeks to be the center of attention of a group via humor is no different than IG influencer posting thirst traps to get those likes & views. Distasteful at best, annoying and unhealthy red flag at worst. At no point did I describe a woman “who constantly seeks to be the center of attention.” Being funny among other people will naturally draw attention to you, it’s unavoidable. But you describe the double …

not once did any of my actual personality, character, values, or interests really come into play in any of those interactions. Superficially maybe, due to the halo effect, but they were never the main factor. This is the same revelation that every reasonably attractive woman has at some point, often before she reaches adulthood.

Understood. I don’t think physical attraction is the only important factor for any healthy person looking for an LTR. But I think it’s obviously true that looks play a greater role in male attraction and longterm relationship satisfaction than they do for women. Some men on here constantly complain that they’ve somehow been “lied” to by women their whole life and have just recently woken up to the uncomfortable reality that merely being a “good person” isn’t enough to attract someone and get lai…

Being funny is related to social status, and men care less about that in women than women do in men. Many men actively dislike women who seek social status. They don’t like being outshined by women, and being funny can make you the center of attention. Same reason men often have a visceral dislike for female comics. That said, I’ve definitely had men become more interested in me after finding out I’m funny. I have a sort of dry, understated sense of humor though, which I think is more palatable …

No, actually it isn’t. Women base what is “hot” to them on what other women think or what is trendy. Hence why creatures like Mac Miller, Jeremy Allen White and Pete Davidson are considered sex symbols. Maybe this is true for like 20 year olds, but in my experience this drops away really fast once you're past college age and much more narrowly focused on what you want/like vs. what your friends think. Among my friends, there has always been a lot of disagreement about what guys are attractive. I…

It's not that much surprising - but still it is a bit sad that relationships are very transactional and that so many people can be really nice when they want something or feel that you're equal or better, and totally switch their attitude when they consider themselves better. I agree, and think this applies equally to men and women. I have better experience dealing with men - they are less calculated and more naive sometimes, at least when they are young.

I'm continuously amazed that this is a surprising conclusion for men. Women have been bashed over the head their entire lives with the reality that practically the only thing that determines whether men are interested in them is how they look. It's something I understood at age 12. Welcome to the real world I guess.

This is the last time I’ll interact with you. Downvote away. You keep making false claims. California is not an “exception.” 45 states in the U.S. have anti-discrimination laws applicable to public accommodations, and all of those prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex. A man could absolutely win a lawsuit in those states if a hotel, restaurant, bar, etc. discriminated against him based on his sex.

Women's negative comments usually aren't so blatantly ridiculous and awful. But they are pretty close. Sorry, they aren’t pretty close. They’re not even in the same universe. They will run the gamut of gender stereotyping, including, but not limited to, portraying men as soulless automatons only seeking sex, incapable of higher emotions ("those are just code words for sex", etc) Sure, gender stereotyping is pervasive on this sub.

Private all-male clubs are pressured, sanctioned, smeared and, when all of that fails, sued into bankruptcy by women for the only crime of not accepting women. Let’s stick to the claim you made: “It’s illegal for men to form men-only spaces.” Your first two links have nothing to do with legal challenges or legal rulings. Your third link involves a place of public accommodation — not a private club — and a decision of an administrative law judge that was not a final judgment and had no force of l…

Fine. I will say, my perspective from what I've seen on here is that women very often go to great lengths to engage with men who harbor immense resentment towards them simply because they are women, and intentionally ignore blatantly sexist insults to do so. Just within the last few weeks, I've experienced: A man going on a rant about how "women are the inferior form of human" and calling me a "dumb bitch" after I challenged him; A guy making a joke(?) about "human trafficking" women; and Anothe…

You are adding your own view that 1950s gender roles result in women being “treated better” than men. That’s an amazing claim, one that I can’t imagine any reasonable person agrees with, and it’s not at all supported by those studies. I have the precisely opposite view. A man who expects a woman to be subservient to him, to defer to him, and to forgo any financial independence of her own, is certainly someone who thinks men deserve preferential treatment in that aspect of their relationship and …

Women are attracted to benevolent sexism - meaning they want preferential treatment. That’s interesting, but it doesn’t demonstrates that women “want to be treated better than men,” which was your original point. According to that article, “benevolent sexism” = adherence to stereotypes about women and traditional gender roles (i.e., man as provider and woman as dependent), which definitely does not automatically mean “preferential treatment” for women.

Masculinity encompasses many traits in addition to and apart from a preoccupation with dominance, aggression, sexual conquest, and power for the sake of power. I'm sure you recognize the downsides of those aspects of masculinity.

You’re mixing several concepts together. Masculinity is not the same thing as the patriarchy.

It depends on what you mean by “sexual attention.” I’m in an LTR but still attracted to other men, obviously. If I’m passing by an attractive guy and I can tell he notices me too, I enjoy that. I like to know I look good, so some passing glances out in public are nice. But anything that veers into leering or staring or actual sexual comments is not ok.

Same. I got more attention from men, and especially more men I’m attracted to, when I had a pixie cut in my late 20s than when I had long hair in my early 20s.

I half agree with this. Women, especially young women, are often uncomfortable being vocal about what works/doesn’t work for them. And a lot of women know what works for them solo but not with a partner. US culture around sex is particularly uptight, and sex ed is basically nonexistent, so young men and women learn about sex from mainstream porn, which is fake bullshit. I think this puts both men and women in the terrible position of feeling like they have to fill a porn role during sex, which i…

A better description from another thread today: the general consensus being that many women will spend the majority of their 20s and possibly early 30s having random, unrestrained sexual fun with noncommittal alpha bros. But then when they decide to settle down and start a family, these women will look for a stable, committed provider man who she'll have infrequent sex with, and the sex that is had will be fairly vanilla.

Not if the child is given up for adoption. Adoption requires consent of both bio parents, with very limited exceptions such as in the case of rape or if the bio dad is unknown. So, equal terms. The issue with paper abortion is that it gives one parent the right to financially abandon an existing child and saddle the other parent with all responsibility. Isn’t that bad for children? Should tax payers be forced to pick up the slack because one parent didn’t want the kid? Should women also have the…

Of course adoption should be available. How is that analogous to paper abortion? The law does not force men or women to be a part of their child’s life. It does force both, on equal terms, to financially support a child they created.

It would 100% create a situation where (1) single mothers will have even fewer resources than they already do to raise children on their own, (2) many women will be effectively forced to abort wanted children because they would not be able to financially support them by themselves, and (3) taxpayers will be required to foot the bill for expanded welfare programs to support the children of men who abandoned them.

The idea that a man is always taking sex from a woman is like saying women don't enjoy sex. That's just stupid. I think that was essentially the point being made? I.e., it’s difficult for women to feel validated by sex when the cultural narrative is that sex is being “taken” from them (even though that narrative is wrong). Let's not forget women who are into hookups feel that they are "taking" sex from a guy. I’ve personally never heard any woman speak this way about a casual hookup.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/05/24 10:21 PM

Sure, they’re definitely related. But she’s probably also concerned about judgment from her social circle more generally, including female friends, and she doesn’t want to be castigated as a “slut” for the rest of her life. The way men can “help” women feel more comfortable in their sexuality is by challenging the cultural narrative that a woman’s n-count has an inverse relationship with her value as a person.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/05/24 04:38 PM

I think it’s probably not true that women generally wish they were having more casual sex than they are. For those who do want that, I imagine fear of judgment is the biggest factor holding them back. And yeah no one wants to be “used,” but that’s more about men not caring about their sexual pleasure and men lacking basic respect for their casual sex partners. If you want more women to fuck you casually, stop calling them “used cum rags”!

I’ll momentarily set aside the ethical issues of sex trafficking and women having to resort to sex work due to circumstance, which are pretty much impossible to divorce from this question.

Male “pleasure” isn’t “mandatory” for conception either. Ejaculatory anhedonia is a real thing. Sexual pleasure for both parties is what keeps them both motivated to have sex in the first place.

My strong assumption is that faking it is more likely. New guy doesn’t know what you need to get off, teaching him takes time and effort and can be somewhat socially uncomfortable when you don’t know him well. But you’re still into him and are enjoying the sex and want to show him that, so you make what you see as a little white lie. Not condoning it, but I think it’s fairly common.
/r/PurplePillDebate13/05/24 10:35 PM

Very well could have faked it the first few times, you’ll never know. But, yeah, the excitement goes down as you get used to your partner, which can mean slower or less intense arousal. But less overwhelming excitement =/= boredom or disinterest.

I never said there wasn’t a biological component. There’s pretty clearly a feedback loop between average sexual interest and what’s considered socially acceptable to talk about. I’m not pinning this on men alone; it’s a societal issue, and one women should be (and are) working on. We were just expressing our very hormone addled feelings. I think there’s a lot of social pressure on boys to participate in that type of conversation, even if they don’t really want to.

30 is a safe bet. Maybe a couple years under 30. She’s had several years to date men and likely understands that a major reason a 50 year old man is interested in her is her age.

This is an interesting question.

My sense is that it’s entirely a social issue. Male sexuality is normalized in a way that female sexuality is not. Cultural conversations around sex have generally been about men wanting it and women acquiescing, so to admit your own desire for sexual pleasure as a woman feels taboo.

That would depend on the specific content of the OF account. Calling something “pornography” doesn’t mean it’s automatically unprotected. That’s why states can’t just decide to outright ban (adult) porn. The point is it would be legally very stupid for a school district to impose a blanket ban on teachers engaging in “pornography.” Much smarter to consider it on a case by case basis if it comes up.

Sure. And distinguishing obscenity from speech that has artistic value is a notoriously difficult project. Few public school districts would be willing to invite the inevitable 1A lawsuits that would arise from putting a “no explicit content on the internet” clause into a teaching contract.

Women use incel to mean a guy who can't get laid, that's the truth. Point taken. I agree it’s used this way sometimes and may be intended to make a guy feel like he has less value as a person because he’s (assumed to be) a virgin.

Incel is an identity that generally signifies a man holds a certain set of very negative beliefs about women. A nice guy is a man who does kind things for a woman under the guise of being a friend but only because he expects sex/a relationship in return.

Are women treating short guys as having their value diminished? If they are, they suck and should stop.

It is not per se, as a rule, a dealbreaker for me.

That is generally not because those women have agreed to “share” the guy.

Yeah, not what I was looking for. Funny that women with higher IQ are less likely to get married. Maybe they know something.

Do you have any studies for that, specifically addressing the standards of financially successful women? In my experience, women who are very driven and accomplished also want driven and accomplished men. Shes looking for her equal, not someone better than her.

but the whole thing with men is we won't marry some old bag for her money. We won't sacrifice attraction for money. If a woman raises her standards when she’s financially successful, it’s because her bar for what is attractive is now higher. She’s not going for some ugly old dude just for his money. You seem confused. I’d be interested in seeing any empirical evidence that shows that very successful women expect men to make even more than them. I’m surrounded by incredibly smart accomplished wom…

Hm. Financial security is important to everyone. I will never allow my ability to support myself and my future children to be dependent upon my relationship with a man. And I’ll never get myself in a position where I’m pressured to stay in a bad relationship because I’ll be in dire straits if I leave. potentially self sabotage your attraction to great men who otherwise make less than you? This is a bit silly. I would guess men who make a ton of money also “raise” their standards for who they’re …

Alright, not my personal experience but I accept that might be the case for most women. I think the way you phrased it is somewhat misleading. I doubt there’s any correlation between a woman’s financial success and men’s attraction to her. It might cause some insecurity in some men, but it’s hardly a “handicap” for the woman.
/r/PurplePillDebate21/04/24 04:55 AM

Ok, you’re talking about a woman raising her standards based on how much money she makes. Her “options” only become more limited in the sense that she has raised the bar for what she wants in a man. She still has the ability to date less financially successful men if she wants to.

The fact that this question comes up so often shows how wrong redpill is about what women want. Women do not want this.

Yeah, I’d have to look at the literature again but if I remember correctly there are a bunch of studies showing that verbal intelligence in particular is associated with socially liberal views.

How does becoming successful limit a woman’s options?

Yes, intelligent accomplished people tend to be more socially liberal.

Profession and educational attainment are status signifiers, so I think it makes sense that men would be less concerned about those things in their partner than women. I do think men care about women’s intelligence and competence. Some men online will claim otherwise. That has not been my experience in real life.

So you’d be happy having sex with a woman you’re not attracted to for 50+ years?
/r/PurplePillDebate19/04/24 11:54 PM

That was hardly the only problem, but a big one.
/r/PurplePillDebate19/04/24 11:52 PM

Yes. I will always acknowledge that if I were a guy, the level of shyness I had in my teens and college years would have probably resulted in me being a virgin throughout that stage of my life.

For me, personally, my view on this has changed some as I’ve gotten older. When I was in my 20s, I was mostly looking for a genuine connection and relationship, and felt like I couldn’t get that with guys more than a year or two younger than me because they were too immature. (Mind you, I wasn’t interested in a relationship with men more than a few years older than me either.) My sex drive is higher now in my early 30s. If I were single, I’d probably consider 25 year old dudes for hook ups, but …

I genuinely do not think that is true for most women.
/r/PurplePillDebate17/04/24 06:15 PM

Yes, I think women who feel that way should be upfront about their intentions also.
/r/PurplePillDebate17/04/24 06:14 PM

I don’t think that’s a great analogy. If I knew my attraction to a guy would dry up if he started balding, and the guy knew for a fact he would start going bald in 7 years, then I should absolutely not pursue an LTR with him. I think part of the issue here is that men almost never talk about whether/how they maintain attraction a longterm partner who is inevitably going to age.

Appreciate the honesty. Most men let themselves go and are not very attractive after 30, too. But I think women are more able to see the value in a person beyond their looks. I will say, in order to date ethically, you should be honest with the younger women you’re dating about your intentions and how you feel about older women. Give them an opportunity to bow out and not waste their time. I think most women will find your mindset shallow and really unattractive, unless they’re down for a purely…

Are you planning on finding an LTR? What happens when your now-23 year old girlfriend is 30+? What is the incentive for a woman to enter a relationship with a man who will think she’s unattractive in 7 years?

Alright, good chat. Would be interested in hearing your definition of “affirmation.”
/r/PurplePillDebate17/04/24 01:17 AM

I don’t know what “affirmation” means in this context. This is not a debate post. Dude straw manned what I said so I responded in kind. You seem equally disingenuous.

Hard to answer without a more specific question. I will emphasize the importance of having a good haircut and well groomed facial hair. Like go to an actual salon if you can afford it. Solicit input from women in your demographic. Ive seen several guys go from unattractive to attractive just from a haircut.

I’d be interested to hear your analysis of the “n” word, or any other racial epithet. Is your argument really that it’s all the same so who cares what word you use?? “Sex worker” is an intentional rebranding. The whole point is to emphasize that sex work is labor and remove the stigma.

You can't learn someone's personality without connecting with them emotionally I can observe someone interact with other people without ever interacting with them myself. By sexual attraction I didn't mean you being ready to have sex with the hot guy you run into on the spot, I meant you having sexual thoughts about him and considering such possibility at all based on his looks alone. I don’t have sexual thoughts about men based on looks alone. I may be more open to the possibility, yes, but aga…

Good response re looks threshold. I tried to explain this elsewhere and it was hard to put into words.
/r/PurplePillDebate16/04/24 08:35 PM

/r/PurplePillDebate16/04/24 08:30 PM

Let me say it more clearly then. In my experience, looks alone are never enough to make me sexually attracted to someone. You can be hot as hell and I won’t want to fuck you unless I like other things about you. The hot guy I described above will get my immediate attention quicker than other men, but he still needs to demonstrate something beyond looks to make me sexually interested. On the other hand, a guy could be totally mid but smart and funny and that will make me want to fuck him. Yes, ev…

We are not alien species, so there is overlap. But we have different levels of sexual motivation (in general), which makes a big difference. I am almost never sexually attracted to someone based purely on looks. Even for the “hot” guy who would immediately catch my attention, it’s still more of an aesthetic attraction until he demonstrates that his personality is also attractive. Like I’m not going home and fantasizing about banging the hot dude I saw at the grocery store. Men who are less good …

I think this is hard for women to answer because we’re not attracted to men in the same way they are to us. I work in a midsized downtown area. I see quite a few men (probably 5-10) on a daily basis who are attractive enough that if I interacted with them and found their personalities attractive, I’d be into them. Men I actually find hot on looks alone? Probably one or two a year, and the “hot” part usually requires looks + style. Same dude with bad hair and bad clothes would not catch my attent…
/r/PurplePillDebate15/04/24 11:21 PM

/r/PurplePillDebate13/04/24 02:25 PM

Has someone told you it’s because of your ethnicity? Do you find that women have to have “big flaws” in their face or body to be unattractive to you?

Huh? OP was trying to point out some supposed hypocrisy of women for both wanting physically attractive men and being creeped out by men approaching them in particular ways. There is no hypocrisy there.
/r/PurplePillDebate13/04/24 03:09 AM

I hear what you’re saying. There is a threshold of physical attractiveness that men need to meet to be successful with women. If you’re below that threshold you’re going to have a hard time regardless of how stellar of a person you are. It doesn’t necessarily mean there is something wrong with you.
/r/PurplePillDebate12/04/24 06:56 PM

I mean I think the difference women are pointing out there is that we don’t just zero in on specific body parts and think about attractive men in primarily sexual terms. Everyone likes attractive people. To most women, a guy’s personality likely can’t make up for being butt ugly. But my attraction to a guy who’s decent enough looking but nothing special can absolutely build from not immediately attracted to very attracted based on his personality.
/r/PurplePillDebate12/04/24 06:40 PM

Not really sure. Maybe you can infer from that that he’s accomplished at his job and well liked among his peers? Those are good qualities for a person in general, but not something that would necessarily make me more attracted to someone.

Yeah you are completely wrong.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/04/24 08:32 PM

I don’t understand the motivation to continue to insist that every man a woman has had sex with before you is some alpha chad she wanted to marry. Women are telling you over and over that that isn’t our experience. Ignoring all the AF/BB rhetoric, your post can be summed up as saying that both men and women settle for their best available option. No shit. That’s the reality of human relationships. Where’s the hypocrisy?
/r/PurplePillDebate10/04/24 08:43 PM

I always thought “the ick” was internet lingo for a turn off that shouldn’t rationally be a deal breaker but just is. Like being obnoxious to waiters is a completely rational reason to be turned off by someone so wouldn’t fall into that category. The ick is more like being turned off by a guy because he clears his throat in a way you don’t like but can’t really put your finger on why it bothers you. I think women are much more likely to be turned off by men for smaller benign reasons like that.
/r/PurplePillDebate08/04/24 05:30 PM

Ah ok. It’s impossible to argue with an omniscient being so I’ll end this here. I can tell you from personal experience that there are a lot of self possessed women in the world who like sex and have enjoyed having it casually with different men for some period of time in their lives, and then have gone on to fall in love and have lasting fulfilling relationships with people who respect them and treat them as the full complex individuals they are. I’m sorry if you have felt personally left out o…
/r/PurplePillDebate06/04/24 08:55 PM

Well ok then it sounds like those women haven’t experienced any negative consequences. Are you mad you can’t force them to feel shame?
/r/PurplePillDebate06/04/24 08:17 PM

Lol ok. If knowing that you’re being shamed is all that it means to “take accountability” then women have fully taken accountability for all of the things you mentioned in the OP and you have nothing to complain about.
/r/PurplePillDebate06/04/24 07:07 PM

It sounds like you’re arguing that no one ever has a right to question or disagree with another person’s judgment or treatment of them. That’s not a coherent worldview. By your own logic, men being shamed for getting into age gap relationships are just rightfully experiencing the consequences of their actions.

I really don’t get what you’re on about. Adult humans can (and do) have agency and also have valid complaints about how other people treat them. Also, we usually don’t demand “accountability” from someone who hasn’t committed some sort of harm. Take your body count example and flip the genders. A man has a promiscuous past but ends up finding a woman he wants a relationship with. Does that woman somehow have license to play with his emotions and use him for validation/sex/money/whatever just bec…

I’m not sure what repercussions or claim of victimhood you’re talking about, but that has nothing to do with the point I was making. Go ahead and be upset that women are finally becoming more empowered to seek what they want in life, including sex and relationships on their own terms. But insisting that young women who are making conscious decisions about what they want and acting on their own desires are just being used or “giving up the pussy” or whatever is ridiculous. Just admit you’re threa…

It’s the “getting played” and “giving up” language that pisses women off and reflects a terrible understanding of what most women are doing when they have multiple sex partners in their 20s. Imagine, if you can, a world in which women have sexual agency and actually enjoy having sexual connections with different people. This is also where some men’s expectations conflict with women’s own interests and well being. If you want to end up in a fulfilling, healthy LTR, you often need to play the fiel…
