Honestly? Mixed feelings, just like most social media influencers. Some opinions he has resonate with me and I agree based on my own experiences. However, he also says some really dumb shit sometimes.

Feminists’ frequent argument is that misandry isn’t real because misogyny has historically been much worse. “Misandry hurts mens’ feelings while misogyny kills women.” It’s just their attempt to dismiss and discredit men’s opinions.

Deception isn’t gender locked - it works both ways. I don’t disagree with evolutionary biology at all, your point stands. Men and women have different needs, that’s why we pair up; and we try to partner with the person who will best suit our needs at a minimal cost.

Did you just go from “all men are real men” to “real men… choose love,” in your next comment? Interesting.

“Getting his investment back,” key words there. Now you see why some men would pick the sex over the love. We get love from other sources, but getting sex can be tougher for a lot of men, hence the value.
/r/PurplePillDebate13/09/24 11:43 PM

So is your argument that men and women are naturally biologically different and have different needs? Or is it that we are conditioned to have different needs? Also, some men may use love to get sex out of women, but some women also use sex to get love/resources out of men. Would you say that makes it fair?

Doesn’t prove a point at all. You gave an ultimatum of two decisions, not full freedom of choice. But that being said, curious to why you chose the word “made.” How is romance “made” for women?

I think you should leave it up to the individual couple to decide what works best for them. Whether it’s money, sex, household expectations, etc… as long as they are on the same page, who cares?

It’s not common. Only in select scenarios, particularly in hip hop culture (pass a round) or swinger groups (hot wife).

The top answer was literally “no.” Why would your understanding be the opposite?
/r/PurplePillDebate06/09/24 08:53 PM

Something that’s happens to 0.04% of the US population each year is not common (per 2022). 133,294 reported rape cases out of 333,300,000 US population. https://www.statista.com/statistics/191137/reported-forcible-rape-cases-in-the-usa-since-1990/
/r/PurplePillDebate06/09/24 06:48 PM

This answer makes it seem like you just want to hate on men again because you can never articulate an actual argument. I already looked up the stats. I know how frequently it happens. Whether you consider it “common” or “rare” depends on how you quantify and interpret the data.

If someone was in 100 relationships, I’d be more concerned about their mentality than someone who has had 100 hookups. Really bad example that didn’t address my points. What’s the magic number of hookups where you want to shame women?
/r/PurplePillDebate05/09/24 05:01 PM
12

Well that’s kind of my point. One person’s “extreme” is another person’s “common sense,” so how would we know where to draw the line so the vast majority can all agree? Regarding body count, what is “high” to you? Do we shame women for having 100 partners? What about 5? What about 15? As someone with a high body count, I absolutely dgaf what a woman’s body count is, as long as she’s healthy/no STI’s. Any man who tries to shame me for choosing a woman with a “high body count,” I would just laugh …

Gotcha. So you would prefer if we had more groups like the Westboro Baptist Church who go around to events with signs and shame people for the smallest infractions against their religion? Meaning we should shame people for being gay, wearing skirts above the knee, exposing shoulders, playing “non-Christian music” (all music), and holding hands in public.

Talk to me about what “socially accepted” means to you. Are we supposed to look down on people who participate in “socially unacceptable” behaviors? Are we supposed to call them out? Do we need a morality police force and arrest them like in a conservative, religious country? Where do you draw the line for socially acceptable behavior? Is it limited to promiscuity or can we do this about anything we find annoying?
/r/PurplePillDebate05/09/24 04:32 PM

As someone who participates in hookup culture, I disagree. I enjoy it and it’s not ruining society. I don’t think there’s ever been a time in history or fiction when restricting peoples’ freedom of choice was a good thing.

One woman shared her experience pretending to be a guy friend and trying to get dates from online dating: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTNKUebK8/ Spoiler: it goes exactly how you would think, but somehow she had no idea until she experienced it herself. Edit: Realized the woman is the same from OP’s example.

No idea. I would most likely prioritize my wife, but context of each hypothetical situation would be instrumental for giving an actual answer.

Well, a best friend is someone who I’ve shared memories and experiences with, and who I can continuously bond with through our lives. We may fade in and out over time, but the connection is always there. A wife is the person I want share my life and start a family with - well, hypothetically, since I don’t want kids. We bond through mutual life goals, values, and passion for each other. To address your last point, it is not a lack of emotional closeness, it’s how you are labeling it. In your spe…

To me, that’s a wild assumption. Emotional connection is required for both a wife and a best friend, but the type of connection can vary.
/r/PurplePillDebate21/08/24 08:23 PM
7

I think it has to do with compartmentalized thinking, which seems to skew more heavily towards men. To me there are two different roles: a best friend role, and a wife role. While they can overlap and one person can fill out two roles, they don’t have to be. Kind of like having different groups of friends. Women may not be able to draw the line as distinctly and separate the idea. Perhaps to them, it’s about emotional closeness and not really labeling the relationship, so to them both “roles” sh…

I mean this was pretty obvious. From my days partying a lot in my 20s, there are a lot of women who get blackout drunk and can’t remember much the next day. Instead of taking accountability for their actions and say they drank too much, they say something like “I must have been drugged or something, I never black out like that when I drink!” No, it’s because you insisted on multiple rounds of rumplemintz shots.

Well, I think there’s a big gap between “realizing someone isn’t a match,” and “suffering” through the date. Obviously, if I was “suffering,” I’d end it and leave. I’ve done it several times with women who showed up looking nothing like their online dating profiles. But just because person across from me isn’t wife material (to me) doesn’t mean I’m suffering. I can still enjoy being in the moment. Plus, maybe the other person fills a different role in my life.

Interesting stats. Kind of off topic, but if so few American women (I assume American based on your stats) are desirable, do you empathize with men who have either checked out of the dating market or who travel out of the country for a partner?
/r/PurplePillDebate08/08/24 03:02 PM

We already hear about this stuff all the time, so I’m not sure what would change. Women have been manipulating men for ages, and women’s dating coaches and FDS are just examples of them spelling it out for other women.

A quick search of this subreddit shows that’s “literally” false. Here’s a recent one: https://np.reddit.com/r/PurplePillDebate/s/6dnnMeE9z0 Women tend to bring it up more than men in this sub.

Whether you think it is a “lame excuse” or not, it’s still a viable excuse for those men. If your claim is that these men are actually just scared of rejection and using it as a crutch, well, we can’t prove or disprove that, unless you can get one of them to admit it.
/r/PurplePillDebate03/08/24 10:34 PM

Partially yes. A lot of men (subconsciously or intentionally) base their actions on risk/reward. Each individual has a threshold of when it is worth approaching. Low risk/high reward? Going to go for it. High risk/low reward? Not even going to attempt it. The seemingly increasing odds of being called a “creep” or being humiliated is an increase in risk. For some, the perceived “reward,” is also decreasing. Combine the increase in risk and the decrease in reward, and it’s no wonder why men aren’t…

I have been told this, too. The reason why American men may seem more appealing to some women of other cultures is that we are typically more liberal, progressive, and open to women’s rights than the local men, who are typically more traditional and conservative.

Yep this is it, thanks to the sexual revolution in Western culture in the 60s and 70s, American women started dressing more provocatively and having more casual sex (compared globally). American women had the stereotype of having fake boobs, bleach blonde hair, and being easy throughout the 80s and 90s, which is why they were popular. That stereotype has changed drastically. Now all Americans are stereotyped as fat, lazy, and egotistical. Unless some non-Americans want to correct me, this is jus…

Because they purposely fail to distinguish the difference between “passport bro” and “creepy old ex pat,” and view them as the same. As someone with experience with this, your bullet points are spot on, which is why I support the idea for others who are interested.

As someone who gets approached when he goes out… no, I’m not turned off. I’m polite and respectful to the ones I’m not interested in, but I have none of the hang ups and assumptions you have listed out. Also, your post has a lot of quotes in it… who/what are you referring to?

Yes, I didn’t engage with her at all on the topic because of her reply. That’s the point, and it IS about her history if she has a pattern of repeated behaviors. If she would have responded “yes,” then our conversation would have gone differently. Simple answer. No idea. Got any numbers to share? But anecdotally, yes, I have rejected women later in life who rejected me when I was younger. Do I make up rejection fantasies about random women I meet now? No.

I asked to give the benefit of the doubt, given her post/comment history. Given her follow up comments though, I will disagree with you.

Perhaps. If the chances of success are so little that, to you, it’s not worth the effort, then yes, disengage. But to those who think the reward is worth risk, then go for it. The main point is that you can’t expect something/someone to just fall in your lap unless you go and put some effort in.

No, It’s not. But it’s also inaccurate. Part of it? Sure. But “a lot,” I would disagree with. Maybe just from your perspective. Just like I recognize that some stuff from the women’s spaces is revenge fantasy as well, but I don’t consider that misogyny.

Disagree, but it also depends on your intent. If I didn’t cold approach and relied solely on dating apps, I would never be able to find something casual with an attractive woman. Attractive women don’t rely on dating apps to find men, that’s why the ratios are so off. They know that when they put effort into their appearance and go out, men will approach them. If you’re after one of these women, you’re going to have to go out and approach them. If you don’t, another guy will.
/r/PurplePillDebate02/08/24 04:19 PM

Sometimes there is, but in one of her latest posts, she asked “why do men…?” But when pressed for details, turns out it was just her own revenge fantasy about a passport bro and she just wanted to vent about passport bros.

Didn’t say “blue pill,” I said “blue pill women.” My female friends in real life don’t reflect the same misandrist, man-hating views that a lot of the women here seem to have. We actually enjoy the company of each other and don’t paint everyone with a broad brush.

/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 10:24 PM

It is. Having a extremely tall boyfriend is currently a status symbol in American culture, kind of like having an expensive and extravagant engagement ring. You’re right, they can’t tell, and since they can’t tell, it doesn’t matter. Doesn’t negate the fact that some women still insist on it.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 10:17 PM

It’s not my issue, my comment said I was 6’-0”. Once again, most people recognize height is not an issue, but there is still a sizable portion of women who believe it is.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 10:15 PM

Holy tangents, Batman, not going to read all that. Yes men want thinner women, but they don’t specify a specific size as a dealbreaker. If they did, we’d laugh them away. That’s the point. It’s fine to want a guy to be tall, but if you reject a guy because he barely missed your arbitrary cutoff value, then you should be laughed away as well.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 10:13 PM

Yeah, because women eventually give up on their unrealistic standards and believe that they are “settling.” That’s the difference between single people and people in relationships.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 10:05 PM

That isn’t what I asked you.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 10:02 PM

Do men say “I won’t date a woman with a waist size of 26” or more?”
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 09:55 PM

Yes, I do see it way more here in America than other countries. Some women won’t even consider you an option in person unless they have to break their neck to look up at you. If it’s not important to them, then why do they keep claiming it is?
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 09:52 PM

So when women communicate what they want, don’t take them seriously? Got it. Jesting aside, of course I don’t take those women seriously. No one should. Same thing with women who claim to be perfect tens. I just roll my eyes and move along when people are delusional.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 09:48 PM

Doesn’t change the fact that is what they are looking for and communicating with men.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 09:42 PM

Most people are aware it should NOT matter. But the frequency in which I come across women who do insist on minimum height requirements or “6 6 6 brainwashing,” is enough to call it out. The number of times in which a 5’-4” woman has called me being 6’-0” “too short,” should be zero, but it is much higher. But then again, to your point, America.

Settling is accepting a less-than or different result than originally expecting or desiring. In the context of a relationship, that means accepting someone as a partner despite them not ticking off all the marks on your arbitrary checklist. Settling is also relative. The person may think that they are settling for someone “not at their level,” but usually any outside perspective would tell them “no, that’s your level, you just finally got realistic with your expectations.”
/r/PurplePillDebate01/08/24 08:01 PM

Well, American women seem to think I’m below average, but I consider myself average. I’m 36, 6’-0” tall, and fit. Thick head of blonde hair that my guy friends are jealous of, and blue eyes that my girl friends are jealous of. I modeled in my 20s, and have been taking great care of my skin over the years. I’m also a top 10% income earner with zero debt. By all those metrics, I’m a catch. But most American women think they are too good for me. So I go to where I’m desired.

Swipe stats from OKCupid 15 years ago vs Tinder swipe stats from 2024. Correct, different platforms, but still similar enough to prove women have gotten even more selective over the past 15 years.

Perhaps. I don’t know all the other guys that do it. But for me, it does work. I’ve been treated like an almost celebrity when I’ve traveled to places in Mexico, China, Korea, Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Argentina. People have stopped to take my photo. So while you may be harping on a small percentage of unattractive men, the average guy does get treated pretty well.

Agree with the first part, which sadly happens a lot. The second part is a bit different and harder to explain. There’s a reason why there aren’t as many passport girls as passport bros. America has a pretty liberal culture compared to these passport locations. Men are traveling to find less liberal/more conservative women. And from my experiences, the foreign women like that I’m more liberal than their local men (machismo culture in LatAm, for example). American women are trending towards being…

As a kinda-passport bro, I can’t relate to this post. I’ve never once complained about these foreign women being gold-diggers or green card enthusiasts, because it’s pretty rare to come across it. Most of them just want to be taken out on a nice date and have a good time, and a nice date there is the equivalent of a cheap date in the US. Some of them do try and convince me to move to their country, but it has been uncommon in my experience. But then again, I don’t fit the description of the gene…

If women swiped right on average of 7%, but all of their likes when to different guys (and not the same guys), then you would expect the average guy to be swiped right on 7% of the time. But it’s not. The average guy gets swiped right on 2.5% of the time. So this means the distribution is NOT equal, and that most guys get swiped right on <2%, while some guys are getting much higher rates of return. This means that, yes, in general, women are swiping right on the same guys with only a little vari…

For your first question: I agree. If you already have a handful of matches, why keep swiping? That’s a good question you should ask the women who have tons of matches. Still doesn’t affect their left/right swipe ratio, just total number of swipes. Second, they might not be perfect numbers, but it is still the best data we have, unless you can provide a better source. But ok, let’s take into account the fake profiles. The fake women’s profiles swipe right on everyone, and most men are able to pic…

That’s great, but doesn’t disprove how selective women are if men are given the same conditions and swipe more often.

No, but that’s mostly it. The majority of men and women have nearly empty profiles besides the basics. There’s nothing else to judge.
/r/PurplePillDebate27/07/24 01:12 AM

And that point doesn’t even hold water. The rate at which someone swipes right/left is not based on number of users, it’s based on the profile on front of them. The number of users only affects the total number of matches, not the percentage.

Nope, still wrong. According to Tinder (which, by the way, I already linked the study for you previously in another thread, but you still won’t accept it), the average woman swipes right 7% of the time, but the average man gets swiped right on 2.5% of the time. That’s means women are swiping collectively on the same men, skewing the assumed average from the predicted 7%. You can’t just say, oops my source is wrong but I’m still right.

I would like to see more detailed data too, but there’s no way dating apps would release it. It would really highlight what a waste of time dating apps are for men, and that’s the primary source of income. Glad we agree the number is higher in real life. Obviously not drastically higher, but it’s at least significantly higher.

Yes, that is what the quote from your own linked source said, thank you for reading it back to me. Women were messaging men that they thought were beneath them. Why do you keep glazing over that part?

Still doubt this. According to Tinder, the average woman swipes right less than 10 percent of the time, and the average man gets swiped right on 2.5% of the time. Does that mean only 2.5% of men are able to find matches in real life too? I think that number is a lot higher.

“But with the basic ratings so out-of-whack, the two curves together suggest some strange possibilities for the female thought process, the most salient of which is that the average-looking woman has convinced herself that the vast majority of males aren’t good enough for her, but she then goes right out and messages them anyway.” Yes.

I will agree that the 80/20 rule is different from online vs real life. However, this figure is already out of date. This was from OKCupid where women only found 20% of men attractive. OKCupid is dead now. According to bumble and tinder, women swipe right on average around 5-7% now, meaning they have gotten even more selective.

Mods continue to show their bias by letting ridiculous posts like this to be kept up. Edit: I guess they choose to act when they get called out. But whatever, I’ll bite. Just create women only gyms if women need a safe space. Women are not entitled to feel safe, just like men aren’t entitled to feel safe. Your feelings are your own responsibility. Figure out a way to feel safe on your own.

No, we know they don’t care about the other persons feelings already, that’s been established.

The person who does this just doesn’t care enough to reflect on it.

I mean you and I can both speculate the exact words that these guys are thinking, but none of it is accurate unless you actually ask those guys. Until then you’re kind of making up your own narrative to satisfy your internal fantasy to put these men down (although rightly deserved).

And I never commented on the legality of it, because I already know about one-party and two-party consent laws in the states. I was pointing out how unethical it is, and by purposely doing it, you’re not considering the feelings of the other person.

“Antisocial personality disorder, sometimes called sociopathy, is a mental health condition in which a person consistently shows no regard for right and wrong and ignores the rights and feelings of others.” - Mayo Clinic. When you record these women on dates without consent and treating them as data to be collected instead of as a person, are you respecting their rights and feelings? Or are you ignoring them?
/r/PurplePillDebate26/07/24 07:05 PM

Yeah that’s a tad sociopathic. We all do things to maximize our success in the dating market. That’s how redpill works. Your “strategy” goes above and beyond that, to the point where you want to record your dates without their permission? Bruh.

Nope, you’re reaching with your logic again, and trying to paint me as some sort of predator who can only get off when the woman doesn’t like it for some reason.

Finally, someone presses the real question. For me personally? I don’t care. I briefly dated someone in the industry. But most men don’t like women with a high n-count. Generally speaking, the type of woman who is open to casual sex is not the type of woman men want to have casual sex with.

Because being honest doesn’t get you laid. For these hypothetical men, once they realize the women is not relationship material (for them), but they are still sexually attracted to her, they don’t care if she views him as “immoral.” All he cares about is having sex and moving on. If a man was honest with a woman, and said that he does not see a relationship with her, but would like to sleep with her, what percentage of women would go along with that? I would guess less than 5%.
/r/PurplePillDebate26/07/24 03:03 PM

I think this is where our opinions differ. I view dating as spending time with someone, having fun, enjoy to their presence, and getting to know them. Then, after awhile of dating and determining mutual feelings, entering into a committed relationship. You seem to want a man who will open up to you like you’re already in a relationship, just to consider him for dating. To me, that’s putting the cart before the horse. But if it is working for you, then keep at it.
/r/PurplePillDebate26/07/24 01:50 PM

That’s a fair assessment. But as a guy, and to give you a heads up, there is no way in hell most of us want to be emotionally vulnerable during the talking stage. From personal experiences, most women get the “ick” if we open up too soon. Once we have been seeing each other for awhile and built up some trust/feelings, that’s a different story. So if one of your relationship needs is to have a guy open up to you and be emotionally vulnerable right away, I wish you the best of luck, since it will …

So if you don’t feel anything for a man who checks off all of your boxes (perfect for YOU), then you should probably evaluate why. Most likely one of two things: 1) He’s not actually perfect in your eyes. He’s missing a certain quality but you can’t identify it yet. 2) You are currently not in a mental/emotional state to be receptive to the possibility of a relationship. But until you break down the “why” of your feelings, relationships will continue to be a struggle.
/r/PurplePillDebate26/07/24 12:57 PM

If you have the perfect man (for you) standing right in front of you, and you’re not interested, and you don’t know “why,” other than “my feelings,” then you need to take some time and figure out why you feel that way. Women often brag about having more emotional intelligence than men, but how can that be true if you can’t even understand your own emotions?

Agreed. Context is important, so it’s hard to give general advice for something that is a case by case basis. I’ve had women stalk me and threaten me too after rejection, so I can empathize with the safety aspect.

As gently as possible, but if you couldn’t even consider a woman with brown eyes because it reminds you of your mother (who has hazel, not even brown), you may have some unpacking to do on that. But sounds like you’re settling down, so it’s irrelevant anyway. Congrats!

On things they cannot change? For sure. On things they have control over? That’s different. Once again, I agree you don’t HAVE to do anything.

Wanting to be with someone you’re attracted to isn’t shallow or a fetish, that’s normal. I was specifying when people say something like “I only date people with XX color eyes.” That’s weirdly shallow.

Vaguely, yes, but not specifically. “You’re not my type.” This could be physically, mentally, emotionally, etc. The point is if you don’t want to be specific about why you’re rejecting, that’s fine, you don’t have to be. But you don’t get to complain if a man does the same to you.

I still prefer the truth. Sometimes a woman has gotten the wrong impression of me, so getting feedback helps me adjust how I present myself, especially if it was something I was unaware of. For example, one women didn’t want to go on a date with me because of my religion. I asked her to clarify, and she said because my parents are religious, I must be as well.

1) No, it’s extra, since most other women don’t require those extra “fees.” 2) Kids are baggage. We can have empathy while still enforcing boundaries. It’s like how I can empathize with the homeless, but that doesn’t mean I have to let them live with me.

This is a great point. I would even go a step further and say “people” instead of men or women, because even in one of those groups, there is a massive variance in values. However, there are definitely clear patterns and generalizations that could said about each gender and their values.
/r/PurplePillDebate24/07/24 06:50 PM

If you can support that claim, I’ll listen. I believe it applies to both genders, but I recognize my bias because I see it happen with women more. From my perspective, two examples: 1) The average woman on tinder swipes right ~6% of the time. The average woman on tinder is not attractive (and definitely not in the top 10%), so they are definitively shooting above their league. 2) I rarely see men rate themselves “perfect 10s,” but I see a lot of women make that claim.

It’s the ones that are are objectively unattractive, overweight, and broke that think they are way out of your league so they swipe left on you, or match with you just to insult you. If you’re a guy, it really messes with your self esteem when unattractive people think they are too good for you. Thank goodness online dating is not a good representation of the real world, just a subset of the delusional ones.

Yes, but only with online dating. I get approached by attractive women when I go out, but the very few women who swipe right on my dating profile are all unattractive.

Thank you for teaching me how averages work. I spent years studying math but somehow we never got around to that subject. But just to quickly address some points: I never assumed women swipe right at 7% in my area. All I said was “according to tinder,” and their data comes from worldwide averages. Yes, we agree that according to the numbers, articles, and Tinder itself, women are pickier than men. No, I do consider myself picky. At least for relationships. Regarding women? Who knows. I’ll refer …
/r/PurplePillDebate12/06/24 12:50 AM

And your logic doesn’t work, because you are claiming that men use tinder as a numbers game while women use it seriously, without any reasoning to back it up your gender generalizations.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 11:06 PM

“A significant number of men just swipe right on everyone,” What number would you guesstimate that is?
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 11:03 PM

And neither does your logic. You have zero evidence on what percentage of users treat it as a dating app, hookup app, or “playing a numbers game.” Until you can provide a breakdown, I’ll take the raw Tinder data at face value.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 10:52 PM

Just re-read my last sentence so I don’t have to repeat it.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 10:49 PM

Ok, you got those numbers for me then?
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 10:41 PM

Well, the bar is pretty low. There’s a reason I swipe left ~95% in my current city.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 10:18 PM

Physical appearance/superficial standards, yes.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 07:26 PM

40%. On average men swipe right 40% of the time. Why do women keep insisting men swipe right on everyone?
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 07:21 PM

I agree with you entirely. My standards for casual sex are way lower than a relationship. And I would argue that women are the opposite. But that’s a whole other topic of conversation and doesn’t disprove the swiping habits/selectiveness.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 07:19 PM

First, yes, that indicates attraction. If he wasn’t attracted, he would have swiped left. Second, that doesn’t disprove that men are less picky than women. After men match, what percentage decide they want to date? And how does that compare to the percentage of women?
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 07:17 PM

You’re just explaining what “less picky” means with more words now. By your logic, if men don’t care what a woman looks like, but women do, how does that not make them “pickier”?
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 06:58 PM

It could be. But then Match Group would have to admit that they have a rampant bot/fake profile problem, big enough to throw off their stats.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 06:55 PM

You also have to consider that women do that too.
/r/PurplePillDebate11/06/24 06:27 PM

I would be. It’s about 3:1 men to women on dating apps, so the 7% of men is roughly equal to half of the 40% of women, not equal. But I do agree that it is the best interests to have as few matches as possible. It helps eliminate the “illusion of abundance of options” that dating apps seem to have given people.

According to Tinder, men swipe right ~40% on average while women swipe right ~7% on average. So while I won’t comment if women are “too picky,” we can still conclude that women are definitely “way pickier” than men.

“Commercial Porn” is fake. Your words. That’s not the only type of porn. There is much more authentic and realistic porn out there too, including amateur stuff filmed with iPhones. Broaden your perspective a bit. For every man out there that believes a woman’s clit is connected to her feet, is a woman who made a video to convince that man it’s real.

Exactly, they are a minority, but still prevalent, and they exist. BTW, more women have posted/reposted that they want a 6’5” man than those men actually existing. It’s a fantasy. Racists are a minority, but racism is still a problem. Terrorists are a minority, but it’s still a problem.

That is the far end of the spectrum I was mentioning. You’re still trading something - it’s a unique love for each other that only they can supply. It’s intangible and indescribable, but it’s something, because if it wasn’t, you could easily find that with someone else.

Yes, that’s the whole point. Dual incomes are a necessity to survive these days, your marriage stats show that. However, there are still quite a lot of single women out there who haven’t realized that yet, and are adhering to their “gold digging” ways, insisting that they only want a man who will be responsible for 100% of their finances.

Congrats on not knowing any personally, I could name 30+ that I have met personally through dating over the last 20 years, and add about 1 in 5 women that I see on dating apps currently. Can I apply your logic elsewhere? For example, I’ve never sexually assaulted a woman, and none of my guy friends have either. By that logic, men don’t sexually assault women ever and therefore sexual assault not a problem.
/r/PurplePillDebate31/05/24 11:46 PM

…that’s the point. Men don’t want gold diggers because we need someone to contribute to the household finances. There are very few men that can support a household on a single income, but there are way more women that want that lifestyle.

My theory is that all relationships are transactional. they are just on a spectrum ranging from tangible to intrinsic values. There are both men and women who want a purely tangible transactional relationship, per your first example. Other people may judge them for it, if it works and it’s what they both want, who cares? Then there are the majority, as you also described above, who are pretty close to the other end of the spectrum of pure egalitarianism. Their transactions are less monetary and …

I’ve met them on dating apps, in person, dated them, had sex with them, seen them get married, etc. Yes they exist, and no, they are not rare. They are the ones that put themselves out there more because their life plan requires them to find a man to support them. That’s why men see an over representation of them while women do not.

Glossing over how you basically said that anyone who used dating apps is a creep. Pretty sure you’re trolling at this point. Yeah so that’s the issue. You’re conflating “easier to approach” and “easier to approach and succeed,” which are two separate ideas. “Easier to approach” than ever - not true, or at least not demonstrated how by your comments. “Easier to approach and succeed” than ever - possibly true, because according to you, there is less competition. Is that what you’re trying to say?
/r/PurplePillDebate10/05/24 04:08 PM

So all the women that I met on dating apps and went on dates with, were they creepy too? Or is it only men that can be creepy? Also, you have yet to prove why you believe it is “easier” than ever. What’s your metric besides feelings?
/r/PurplePillDebate10/05/24 03:28 PM

So if it is easier to use apps instead of approaching people, doesn’t that defeat your argument that it is easier to approach today than ever before? Or should the argument be changed to “it has never been more effective to approach women,” since that coincides with your last comment? That I could agree with. Edit: also, dating apps were around 10-15 years ago, and they were amazing back then. They are actually way worse today.
/r/PurplePillDebate10/05/24 03:09 PM

Yes, that’s the point. More men were approaching because it was easier to do so. I understand your point is that since less men are approaching, there’s less competition, so it should be easier to succeed with your approach, but that’s not necessarily the case, because the bar of standards has been raised by women.
/r/PurplePillDebate10/05/24 02:50 PM

I’ll debate on a technicality. It has “never” been easier? Nope. It was way easier about 10-15 years ago. Is it easier than it was 1-2 years ago as your claim? I’d agree to that. A lot of people are finally dusting off their social anxiety that followed from being isolated during the pandemic.

I think it would be a great thing. Men who only want women for sex now have a easily accessible and legal way to get it, and sex workers now have more freedom and safety to do their work.

I think the problem with that, is that when there is a movement started by men for men, it immediately gets painted as “misogynistic” in order to discredit their struggles. MRA and MGTOW are two examples that were created as a positive thing to help men with their struggles (even red pill to a degree) and to form a community for men who were dealing with similar issues. Sure, there are some outliers who weaponize it, but the same could be said about feminism as well.

I think, in general, men have lower standards than women, although I would consider myself out of that group since I’m apparently pretty picky myself. However, also in general, the standards men have for a relationship are way higher than those of a hookup/ONS. That’s why women get flooded with likes on dating apps. There are a lot of men out there that would hookup with the average woman, but would not date her.

On dating apps, women swipe right at an average of 2.5%-6%, depending on app and location. Men swipe right 40% of the time. Women are definitely pickier than men.

As a man, I find it weird to obsess over a woman’s sexual history, unless it has long term ramifications. But I am also not a hypocrite. I’ve had some one night stands in the past, so I would not judge a woman for the same.

It’s not a shaming tactic. People (with a few exceptions) start to look worse as they get older, usually between 30-40. Men lean into the aging process. They don’t cover their wrinkles with foundation and dye their gray hair in order to look better like women do. Eventually women stop putting as much effort into their appearance, usually from a major life event, so their appearance rapidly catches up with their age. That is all that “the wall” is describing. Do some men use this as a shaming/sca…

I said SOME women, not all women. Some women are absolutely delusional. They claim they are perfect 10s, so they won’t settle for anything less than perfect. But the kicker - they are completely average or below average. Those women then complain about being single because the men don’t live up to their standards. Yes, those women should absolutely be criticized. By the way, the same goes for SOME men too.

As someone who also dates abroad, it’s great. If it’s something you’re fortunate enough to be able to do, I always recommend traveling.

According to the women of PPD, women wear makeup for other women, not for men. If you regularly wear makeup to alter your appearance, but then one day decide not to wear it, of course you’re going to look different and get called out for it. You set the expectations and standards with your appearance. Imagine if a new guy started at your work. Everyone else dresses casual but he wears really nice suits everyday for a couple of years. Then one day he suddenly dresses casually. You don’t think som…

Because it’s not an “obvious gift observance” if you were raised in a family that didn’t do a lot of gifting. People have different traditions/gifting expectations when it comes to special occasions.

You’re probably right. It’s just a workable theory. But taking complex ideas and breaking them down into simple structural formats is how people like to analyze and inform. And people like to organize their thoughts by grouping and compartmentalizing things. If this wasn’t true, then things like MBTI, enneagram, and horoscopes wouldn’t exist.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/03/24 08:48 PM

Agreed, and I think the biggest takeaway is that… it’s all perfectly fine. Everyone has different expectations for a relationship, so it is important to find someone whose expectations complement yours. Otherwise you’re doomed to stay in an unhappy/unhealthy relationship. If you don’t want to give gifts, don’t be with someone who expects gifts. If you don’t like doing acts of service, don’t be with someone who expects it.

So let me get this straight, according to PPD logic, if a video of a woman making unrealistic demands of men gets tens of thousands of likes and comments from other women, that doesn’t represent all women because it is “just social media,” but this video gets a handful of idiots to agree and suddenly it counts as “evidence” against the “manosphere”? Make it make sense. Either all viral videos are on the table or off, you don’t get to just pick and choose when it supports your opinion.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/03/24 07:57 PM

Yes, holidays are a people thing. Celebrating them is gender neutral, it’s a matter of the importance each individual places on it. But the gift giving goes back to OP’s premise of which gender tends to want more gifts. Out of all my couple friends, the men are expected to spend more on gifts than the woman. But then again, this could also be because the men also have higher incomes than the women.
/r/PurplePillDebate01/03/24 05:17 PM

I’ll have to agree with OP that the majority of women do just from personal experiences. Out of all the relationships I’ve been in and women I have dated, all but one expected gifts for birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries, and Valentine’s Day. And a good amount of them expected me to occasionally get them flowers to “prove that I am thinking about her even when we are not together.”
/r/PurplePillDebate01/03/24 04:39 PM

Even I am going to disagree with this one. I’ll pitch an alternate theory: it’s a difference in “love languages,” assuming one believes the idea of “love languages,” has merit. Of course this is a major generalization, but I notice when women have this prompt on their online dating profiles, the top two responses are “gift giving” and “acts of kindness,” while men tend to select “quality time” and “physical touch.” In short, this means that (some) women believe that men should show their love wi…

It seems like your family had major issues with sexism and gender roles, so I can have empathy for your perspective. This tends to happen in some conservative and religious communities.

I mean, that could be true, but it’s also not necessarily true. Some people live miserable, long lives while other have shorter, happier lives.

Ok, a couple points: “They can just see a sex worker.” Nope, still illegal in most places. Don’t know why that seems to be a common argument with women around here. Second, “many men blame feminism for the fact that women now have more rights and freedoms in society.” I mean, yes, THANKS to feminism, women have rights and freedoms. There is definitely a cause-effect scenario there. Some INDIVIDUAL men don’t like women having rights and freedoms and prefer having all control over them; we call th…

“Never seen that before.” …because it rarely ever happens. If you can find a man who rejects a woman because her chest is only 32D and not 32DD, he would be ostracized as a creepy weirdo for getting hung up on such a small detail. However, (some) women think it is ok to reject a man because he is only 5’-11”, and not 6’-0”. Or that he only makes $99,999/yr and not $100k. Why? It’s because they are shallow and they are looking for a status symbol, not a partner. To yours and OP points, some men w…

Yep. I’m 6’-0” even, and the taller women (5’-8” to 6’-0”) don’t usually have an issue with it, but the women who are 5’-6” and under that have told me I’m not tall enough. It’s wild out there.

Height is important to shallow women. It’s so she can post cute couple photos to Instagram in her favorite heels and get validation from her friends/followers. Can’t do that if he’s her height or shorter, that ruins the aesthetic she wants for her profile.

It is a matter of effort vs reward. I never get as much as I give when it comes to women, so it is just not worth it for me. I am happy with everything I have in life, and everything that I “need” I can provide for myself or get readily easily without having to be in a relationship.

“Women are conditioned to…” What? Women aren’t brainless zombies, they can think for themselves. Why do they do it for themselves or for other women? Confidence. And that confidence comes from being attractive. It absolutely can make a 5 look like an 8. It happens all the time. If this weren’t true, none of us would know what a Kardashian is.
/r/PurplePillDebate15/08/23 09:55 PM

/r/PurplePillDebate15/08/23 09:31 PM

True, even my industry has some women, but the unfortunate part it is still heavily dominated by men of all ages, and the only women are usually aged 40+ serving admin roles. I guess the point is for some people, the opportunity to build social circles with women doesn’t just fall into your lap like you would hope/think. Some people really have to go out of their way to develop them.
/r/PurplePillDebate15/08/23 08:40 PM

I mean, it kind of depends on a case-by-case scenario right? Sports are still gendered, unless you’re talking about adult co-ed leagues. Which still struggle to get women to fill out the roster, hence there’s always a minimum requirement for women and not for men. Sitting next to each other in class? Depends on the class. My engineering classes were pretty much 95:5 male:female. Work? Same as class. Really depends on the profession.
/r/PurplePillDebate15/08/23 08:25 PM

“Photogenic” may be the word you’re looking for. That being said, “In the majority of couples, the woman is more attractive that the man.” Sure, when they go out. But when they stay in they are much more even in appearance. Most couples look average, and therefore are similar in attraction. But when a man and a woman go out, the woman has the ability to temporary increase her sex appeal more than a man does, so to the outside viewer, the woman is more attractive than the man.
/r/PurplePillDebate15/08/23 05:30 PM

Oh interesting. So per your CMV, the women at sex parties are more attractive than men, but everyone at these parties is partnered up before arriving, I think the real question is “why are these attractive women pairing up with unattractive men?” Are you saying women partner up with men they don’t find attractive? Or are they just not attractive to you?

True, the “lifestyle” has a wide range of things. But for those couples, and from my experience, the couples are looksmatched with each other. Both the men and women are overweight/unattractive. Just go to your local r4r on Reddit. You’ll see lots of average guys thirsting after overweight married women, due to the scarcity of women in the lifestyle. Edit: also, some of those extremely attractive women are paid to be there. They are the ones that everyone looks at, but no one can touch.

As someone with actual experience with this, I’m not sure if I agree with you or not. It really depends on the type of couples/people/relationships at the party. The most common is a “hotwife” couple, where the woman is seen as a trophy wife and the husband has lots of money/status.

If you can see a message first, that means the guy as already liked your profile, so not a true neutral swipe. And that’s limited to Hinge, not Tinder and Bumble. How about an estimate for a percentage, can you do that?

Edit: Age is a filter most apps already have, so that shouldn’t affect your swiping habits. Also, you can’t consider their first message as a filter, that happens after you swipe/match. So based on your other factors, how often do you swipe left?

“The wall” is real and it is pretty simple. It is when your looks catch up with your age.

So a woman who is actually 35 with her hair and makeup looks similar to how she did when she was 30 without the additional work. Men typically don’t do this, although it is becoming more commo…

Prostitution is illegal - yes, this is mostly true depending on your location. Prostitution is immoral - not completely true.

Casual sex is much easier than a relationship. Why? The bar is lower for standards when it comes to sex than it is for a relationship.

Obviously there are individual preferences, but there are still trends that appeal to the majority, and ignoring that doesn’t change it. Just like the common “women don’t like short men.” Sure this isn’t true for all women, but for a lot of women it is.

Yep, your second paragraph is what jumped out at me too. She tries to say that men only pursue the hottest women and “aren’t super invested” in the average women or women who don’t take the most photogenic pictures (nice way to avoid saying unattractive women). That is when the bs alarm went off because that is not even close to true. Men on average swipe right 50% of the time. They swipe right on average, below average, and even overweight women all the time.

But there is still that one woman for four men. Women still use dating apps, and the ones that do are swiping right five percent of the time. So if you can’t get a sense of someone’s personality based on a profile, what makes the women swipe right or left? Is it more realistic that 95% of men have awful profiles, or that because of the gender disparity on apps, women are allowed to be way pickier when it comes to looks than men?

Go check out the profile reviews. Lots of men posting there looking for help that struggle to get matches and dates, and most of them are completely average looking. It’s not the men, it’s the apps.
/r/PurplePillDebate15/06/23 12:08 AM

Okay, a couple of comments: 1) Ignoring your last paragraph because it missed the point entirely. If you’re messaging with a woman, you already know she’s at least somewhat attracted to you. Question is about being attractive enough to get matches. 2) You literally start off listing your height. I thought personality was more important over looks?
/r/PurplePillDebate14/06/23 11:04 PM

So if online dating is a meat market focusing on looks, and women are attracted to personalities instead of looks (according to OP), then why would a woman be using online dating at all? To me, it’s like browsing Amazon but none of the prices are listed.
/r/PurplePillDebate14/06/23 10:21 PM

20 matches a week is a lot, so going back to my question that you glossed over: what can men do on dating profiles to seem more attractive so that 95% of women aren’t immediately dismissing them as a dating prospect? Would you be open to posting your profile as an example of how men should be presenting themselves?
/r/PurplePillDebate14/06/23 10:13 PM

Hmm… it’s almost like something drastic happened to the majority of the world in 2020-2021… if only I could remember…
/r/PurplePillDebate14/06/23 09:42 PM

So 95% of men aren’t interesting personality-wise to women? And if that’s the case, what can men do to display their personality in a profile in order to be more attractive to women? Also, if looks aren’t important, surely the below average looking men would do just as well as the most attractive men, given the same personality, right?
/r/PurplePillDebate14/06/23 09:37 PM

So is that why women on average only swipe right 5% on dating apps while men on average swipe right (expectedly) 50%?

Oooh I think I know this guy! Don’t forget he gets like 10 matches a day on dating apps and he goes on 3-4 dates per week.
/r/PurplePillDebate14/06/23 07:24 PM

Agreed, this part is a separate issue. The idea that a man pays for a date because he asks the woman out on a date is a old school mentality from when single women weren’t even allowed to have their own bank accounts. Times have changed, and if you want an egalitarian relationship, both parties should expect to go 50/50 when it comes to finances.

Agree with this post. It is why I’ve got one foot already in the MGTOW lifestyle. Meaning, I am living for myself as a single man and it is great. If the right woman comes along, and can add value to my life, that would be great, but if not, I know that I will still be fine. But then again, I do not want kids, so that makes me an outlier compared to most.

But… how did we come up with those numbers? And why can temperature be measured in three different units? Someone had to assign values at some point and then we had to agree on those values. But i digress. In short, those women are not perfect 10s, especially the last one. Most people are average, and a few of those women are above average (maybe less if you wiped all the makeup off) but no one is a perfect 10.

Those are pretty words, but not how the world works. People have decided that using numerical values is the best way to compare and contrast different things with similar properties.

I could see that, but also, not exactly. Women with the same BMI could carry their fat differently - some in more “attractive” features (boobs and butts) versus “less attractive” areas (stomachs).
/r/PurplePillDebate05/05/23 09:49 PM

Height is numerical/quantitative. Weight is numerical/quantitative. Fat is a qualitative description we give to someone that visually addresses the balance between height and weight. There is no magic cutoff number that means a person is fat or not, because it’s all relative to the observer. BMI does it’s best to quantify obesity, but it’s not a perfect measurement tool, since it goes off pure numbers instead of visual appraisal.

This is so objectively false, here are a couple examples off the top of my head: Many black women lighten their skin as part of their makeup routine. Men and women have been “buttering” their hair to make it straight for 50+ years.
/r/AllPillDebate28/04/23 10:21 PM

I should add to this what I mean: Think about the most popular black celebrities in America, particularly the women. Are they light-skinned black or dark-skinned black? Do they have straight hair or natural hair? Do they have narrow noses or wider ones? The standard of beauty by default is white Americans, and I would say that’s because of the Hollywood/pop culture that America has pushed out over the last few decades. Not saying this is “right,” but just an observation.

I mean, some OF content creators are already millionaires thanks to millions of simps out there, yet the industry is still thriving, so I’d guess the same would happen with the robots. Although with OF content, the creators get the majority of income, with a small percentage going to the platform. Whoever makes the robots will still get the majority of the income; selling your likeness only nets a smaller percentage of profits. So although I agree, “domination” is bit of a stretch.

I agree with this, because it already is a thing. Female pornstars already partner with male sex toy distributors to make devices to replicate their vaginas.

You’re pushing the goal posts. It doesn’t have to eliminate all dudes from going out, just enough for society to notice. Technology has already done this. People meet on dating apps.

This kind of mindset is what steers people to MGTOW, and I do not mean it in a bad way.

For me, I’ve got a dog for companionship, good friends for socializing, and I have outlets for sexual releases when the mood hits. If I find a woman that adds value to my life, great! But if not, then I am still happy…

Before I have sex with a woman, we have usually had some sort of talk about sex first to make sure we are comfortable/compatible with each other. Topics include number of previous partners, any STIs, last time tested, birth control preferences, favorite acts/positions, etc. If the other person isn’t mature enough to have this conversation, they aren’t worth my time.

That’s actually kind of true. Historically speaking, if you were pale and overweight, you were seen to be wealthy and could afford a life of leisure. People with tans and darker skins were assumed to be people who had to work outdoors, and therefore poorer and less desirable.

This is a win for everyone. Men who just want sex? They will get these and take themselves out of the dating pool. Without all those guys on dating apps, the ratio of men to women will start to balance out. Because of supply/demand of online dating, women won’t be able to be as picky as before, but also won’t have to deal with nearly as many aggressive sexual advances. The men who are looking for a relationship won’t have to be as desperate as the numbers balance out.

Agreed. Pretty normal for online dating. Woman is about a 5 (average), but thinks she is a 8 or 9.

I guess I kind of agree? I’m a man with a high n-count and I honestly do not care about a woman’s n-count, just as long as she does not have any STI’s or other sexual health issues (same as myself). The only men I have come across that care about n-counts are on Reddit, and not in my social circles.

So a man gains self respect by sleeping around and a woman loses self respect by sleeping around? Oh boy, here we go.

Straight 35m here. I think 0-5 is low, 6-20 is medium, and 20+ is “high.” Since my n-count is high (higher than most of what I have seen posted so far), I really do not care what my partner’s n-count is, just that she is healthy and no STI’s like myself.

You know we can see her post/comment history, right? “I….have not been approached or asked out by a man in 8 months.” She commented about a man giving her his phone number at a coffee shop 43 days ago. She said she had sex with a male friend 32 days ago. She posted in amiugly 51 days ago with self confidence issues as well. Something is not adding up.

As a 35m, my age range on dating apps is 25-35. So no, most of us don’t filter you out. It’s usually around our age (even a bit higher for some) and younger.

Sometimes it’s nice to read some rampant sexism from the other side. Checks post history…. Oh this makes sense.

Yes. Since your making a claim/assumption based on your (limited) experience, what is your sample size? The people you are arguing with here have much larger sample sizes than you (I assume with 99% confidence) and know a lot more about sex than you do.

Exactly what I was thinking. You’re sampling something to see if you want to commit to it. Better examples are like, tasting wedding cakes to see which you want for a wedding, or sampling a beer at a brewery before getting a 22oz pour.

I’m clearly so emotional. Thanks.

Yep I agree. I won’t even commit to a woman until I know we have sexual chemistry. I know for a lot of women it is the exact opposite, but that just means they are not my type nor am I theirs.

Ok. Thanks for gatekeeping what makes people happy and having a say in how they live their lives.

Let me just chime in and say…. As a 6-6-6 man, you don’t just magically get women. Sure it may be a bit easier in some aspects, but it’s not some magic milestone. We still have lots of issues with dating.
/r/PurplePillDebate18/11/22 07:41 PM

I agree with you all the way. Start with a bigger pool and narrow it down until you find the commitment. I’m mostly referring to the type of of guy OP is referring to in the first paragraph - where the only intent of the man dating is to get sex within 1-2 dates. That kind of guy is looking for sex, not a relationship.
/r/PurplePillDebate17/11/22 09:11 PM

So was I. But when I was in school we had to go out to parties to meet girls because our engineering classes/dorms were nearly all men. Whenever I told the other guys I knew about a party to go to, there was never a guy that said “sucks for you guys, I can’t wait to stay in and watch Grey’s Anatomy with my girl.”

And how do you get into a “happy” relationship? You date around until you find the right person. Of course it’s easier to have sex, romance, and love when you’re in a relationship, but everyone has a different method of getting there (once again, IF that’s what they want). By the way, your last paragraph is way off from my experiences. The guys with girlfriends were always jealous of the single guys going out and partying with single girls.
/r/PurplePillDebate17/11/22 08:55 PM

Yes it does. You’re basically saying they are not happy and in order to be happy they need to focus on monogamy. If that is not their goal, what is the point?

The men who date multiple women at once and the men who are looking for a serious commitment with one woman are not the same men.

Worth it for sure. Had lots of fun and sensual experiences that make my friends jealous, and they love hearing the stories (both girls and guys, mind you) since they can be pretty wild. Not to mention that I never got a single STI or pregnancy scare. Edit: Male, N= really high, apparently

1) I don’t “expect” anything. I am not entitled to have a woman. 2) No. You forget that a relationship is a two-way street. In this hypothetical, the top 5% woman CHOSE me, meaning she wants to be with me. Maybe from your perspective she settled, but maybe from her perspective I settled for her. Everyone has different criteria/preferences on what they find attractive in a partner.

You’re making a big assumption that the purpose of dating is to make families. Take the desire to have kids off the table so that there is no biological clock argument, and then re-evaluate.

It’s an important part that he left out. Without it he just comes across as an angry guy who gets rejected by both women in their 20s and by women in their 30s/40s that he thinks he is too good for.
/r/PurplePillDebate18/10/22 10:01 PM

However, to OP’s credit, there is a large subset of women (and men) that have ridiculously high standards that they themselves cannot meet, but ALSO complain that “there are no good guys left.” Those are the ones that irk me. That’s just self sabotage masquerading as self esteem.

Agree with this 100 percent. Unfortunately, too many people seem to tie their happiness to their their relationship status.

I’m a man in my mid 30s. I’m extremely picky now, although I wasn’t in my 20s. I can afford to be picky because I’m happy being single and I’m not desperate enough/willing to settle. My criteria for a partner filters out about 95% of the dating pool around me. Am I in the top 5% of men? Hell no. But I’d rather be single and happy than taken and unhappy. Women can do the exact same.

Nah, you know what is a more fun experiment? When summer comes around, add something to your profile that vaguely suggests you have a boat or have access to a boat. I did it this last year and my likes coming in literally quadrupled.

Well that makes sense in your case and your experiences, but it does not match mine. I’m not a guarded person and my energy on first dates is great, or at least good enough where the other person wants a second date. The issue is that 9/10 times I do not want a second date because I have gotten to be so comfortable and happy being by myself, that I see dating as a boring chore, and not a fun way to get to know someone like dating is supposed to be.
/r/PurplePillDebate28/07/22 08:30 PM

Eh, I kind of agree with you. Part of it is definitely working on my availability, but also part of it is just dating some duds. It’s more of a case where I’ve had a first date, and when thinking about a second date, it feels more like a chore than something I am looking forward to. If this happened 100 percent of the time, I would agree with you, but there are occasions where I do look forward to meeting up again because they were a fun time and I enjoyed their presence.

I get that completely! Got my girl from a rescue when she was a puppy. They weren’t sure about the dad, so they said she was “part yellow lab” based on her looks, and that she should get to be about 35-40 lbs full grown. Well, that didn’t happen, so now I am a grown man with a small dog. And I have no regrets!
/r/PurplePillDebate28/07/22 05:34 PM

You know, that’s a fair question! She’s under 20lbs, and a complete mutt. Mostly chihuahua, terrier, and corgi mix. She has a slightly lopsided derpy underbite, but still a great smile.

Pros: I’m aware I look good on paper; I follow the 6-6-6 rule. I have my own place (that is kept clean), a cute little dog, I’m handy, and I actually travel and enjoy it. I’m also socially liberal (I attend BLM and Women’s Rights marches), enjoy listening more than talking, and have been told my dry sense of humor is hilarious. Cons: I just do not have the emotional energy required for a healthy relationship. Most evenings I would rather be alone with my dog than on a date with someone. I’m hopi…

Uh, I’m lost. I’m literally the man you described in the first paragraph. I have my shit together, and I expect my partner to have hers too. I thought this was pretty normal. Am I in the wrong or something? Or is it just a lot less common than I assumed?
