Ironically it's among us bitter fucks that we find acceptance

Animals love very conditionally, usually based on who's feeding and taking care of it. There's no such thing as unconditional love.

It's sad how subs like that position themselves as progressive, forward thinking spaces for romantically unsuccessful guys, but if you read conversational posts there they assume everything negative about the guy in question, and seem to only want blind acceptance of their repeated, generic advice

This type of thing shouldn't require "instructions". The only instructions are, read the other person and respond in kind. That may be true, but it's pretty useless for this subreddit, people here are too awkward to do this naturally

Basically yes. When you're a lonely dude, and don't naturally come across friends and partners, your perspective shifts to always wanting that basic connection. Life is fundamentally different with and without it, as well as how you see life.

The same as any hugbox posting in a community of similar people. No dissenting opinions or experiences are actually wanted.

I currently live at home with my mom, and don't get along with her, so the less relationship with her the better. I've also resigned to being single and alone, so a relationship with inlaws is kind of moot
/r/PurplePillDebate18/12/22 01:58 PM

Don't waste mental energy wondering about TwoX, it's just a hugbox for mostly younger women, the kind of space a lot of guys build for themselves where they don't want to hear anything but validation. And, similarly, a lot of validating, obvious fiction gets upvoted.

There are, but like most men, I personally have no interest in that kind of hugbox validation. If I went to a social group I'd much rather it be normal.

I happen to have colleagues who were the star students in their youth. Many of them now 60 years old and never found boyfriends because they refuse to date a janitor or a plumber. Associate director of clinical affairs, or Associate dean of educational experience with PhDs and advanced degrees etc, can't find available men with equivalent educational degrees so many are old and single and childless. Have you asked these women if that's what they want? So you know that they want a husband and kid…

Most people live with some casual positions of power like you're describing. And none of them spend their lives trying to make up for the advantages they've been born with. Able bodied people don't spend their lives making sure everything is disability accessible, as unjust as that neglect is. Life isn't fair, but at least we get to live in the time where we can behold and understand those better than us. Previously, we wouldn't have even known about their lives, and how so many get a lot of wha…

Yes, and we're here because women don't like us enough to be interested as you described Not smart or hot enough to date, just smart enough to try rationalizing why we can't date. Circling the drain along with all the other self-selecting lonely people.

This sounds right to me. I think that there are only so many hours in the day, most adults can or have to fill that with maintaining their lives rather than socializing. But, ideally, it wouldn't be that way

Yes. But people won't, unfortunately. Similarly to how the popularity of any article on the science subreddit is dictated by how good the headline feels to read. Headlines describing how most demographics Reddit hates are wrong and stupid, stuff like that. Misusing statistics to reinforce your own feelings seems to be an unfortunate part of human nature

Thank you for explaining your perspective, you helped me understand more and I hope you don't get attacked for your honest thoughts.

He makes up a lot of malicious bullshit for money, is an elitist prick, and is a horrible/bad faith "debater."

When the economy gets so unequal and rigged that even the powerful can't ignore it, and it's in the mainstream cultural zeitgeist, I fear it'll be too far gone to mostly fix. The greed of a relative very few will create a world that's needlessly worse than the one we had, despite having better technology, just because we collectively couldn't stand up to the absurd greed of a handful of ultra wealthy.

And all those things make them much, much more likely to be able to produce media or have some hand in it, creating more representation for their own lifestyle and perspective, while making the fairly common chronically lonely experience seem more abnormal.
/r/PurplePillDebate28/09/22 11:46 AM

Modern life is hard and largely isolationist. Most people can't live up to old standards as the economy becomes more unequal. I'm definitely not relationship material by these standards, or most people's. That's common, but most people don't talk about it, because it isn't represented, because generally only more successful people are motivated and platformed enough to affect cultural representation.

Human rights are defined by us, by laws. When you say you want freedom above all else, you really mean you want your own set of ethical rules and regulations. Many of those will invariably restrict many people's idea of freedom.

I agree, and in an ideal world people would be in therapy even before really needing it. But people always know that, ideally, they'd have a great and convenient therapist. People come to Reddit as a shot in the dark for advice from strangers, usually because they're lonely and/or hurting. Just hearing that you need therapy feels terrible for them in that case.

Agreed. I think this is a reflection of the larger dynamic of people generally being horny, especially in gatherings of fairly niche groups that may have not had opportunities to hit it off with others who share their same interests.

Men want to fuck in a pervasive way women usually don't, so the average woman is inherently valuable because she's fuckable. Women don't place this same value on men. A lot of social strife and misunderstanding comes from this value imbalance.

Both, because his awkwardness felt directed in ways that made people uncomfortable. And the sad truth is, that regardless of the moral value of his behavior, the group quietly but ubiquitously shunned him and moved on without him. I was actually really lucky that I didn't find myself in the same situation. People aren't evil in their intentions to leave people who don't intuitively "get it" behind, it's just that there's plenty of people who do and only so much time in the day. A lot of guys in …

Not really socially overt in the way you're asking, but I remember this one weird/socially maladjusted guy I knew for a bit when I first went to college, stereotypical incel type in many ways. He met a couple of Asian girls, transfer students, and for a while they had him show them around and he thought they liked him. Anyway, one time, we're sitting in an extracurricular meeting in the evening, and he gets a text from them that the women are in the library, and he fucking vanishes from the room…

I agree. This sub is desperate to put people into behavioral boxes based on gender, in order to "get" life experience without actually going outside and interacting with people. Any amount of real world interaction teaches you that there are so many uptight men, so many chill women, so many chill men, and so many uptight women, that the incredible amount of nuance makes someone's sex the least important factor in how open-minded they are.

Like OP said, love your honesty. I think this is a great reflection of the general different experiences many unlucky men and women have. Men are caught without anyone at all and develop problems from getting nothing and no touch/validation. Women usually get some kind of negative and/or painful idea of validation, nevertheless at least getting human attention, and develop different but often similar hangups. Most of each sex probably thinks they have it worse than the other.

I think that's just a function of most people fully maturing around their 30's. A lot of people 35+ say that their real life only really began somewhere around that age, and that it got a lot better. Experiences vary of course. Someone in their 50's is much less likely to radically change, because they're far more likely to be set in their ways.

Of course people can and do learn from their mistakes. The difference is in the opportunity to have those experiences and the social validation that comes with them.

Yes, you're both right. Men and women aren't that different. Both men and women do a lot of things, including romance, significantly because of how it improves their social lives, a fundamental part of which is their status to the same sex. Men and women might lust after each other, but anyone would want to socially impress the peers they spend the most time around, which is likely to be the same sex.

This has always seemed the normal way to be for me; personally, if a male friend of mine in a similar situation tried to make our friendship deeper out of nowhere, I'd feel uncomfortable about it.

Yeah, undesirable people of both sexes tend to get really bitter when confronted with better, more attractive examples of their sex, and especially the sexual experience and validation that comes with that. For men, that's more about fucking and having access to women on your demand in general, while for women I imagine it's more often about an idealized fulfilling relationship.

It's a jealousy thing ultimately, most guys who are angry about this wish they could've been the same way themselves. Although it may sound vindicating to hear the anger and repulsion comes from jealousy, I don't think it really helps anyone, since the end result is people being and staying alone. Also with their own imagined sexual worth boogeyman, but that's even more self inflicted.

This is a common perspective but it's one that's always struck me as delusional. People are only friends for what they can give each other. It doesn't make any friendship toxic or selfish on its own, just that it's the unfortunate reality behind why people interact with and invest in each other. I'm a man, and even with platonic friendships with other men, we both get something that we want from the other, even if that thing is just social interaction itself. This idea that people truly altruist…

I mean by definition, this sub is self selecting for people with huge chips on their shoulder about the opposite sex, informed by various lifetimes of awkwardness, loneliness, bitterness, etc

Yeah that's some real doublethink on that guy's part, an honest whore sounds perfect for him if he's being truthful and would keep his mind open

Almost by definition, the only guys who frequent this sub are down bad and have a chip on their shoulder. I imagine the women aren't much different.

That says a whole lot more about you than anybody else. People like you are the cancer that will end this world. ... Sorry my 'debating' style did not suit your taste.

Maybe have a conversation in good faith? I disagree with the other guy but he's doing way better at explaining his points well and living up to the "debate" sub.

Conventional wisdom is conventional for a reason. And there's a huge omnipresent disparity between what people upvote online (wanting clear communication) and what people respond to better in real life (actually wanting indirect communication, conventional flirting and posturing, etc)

Either implying women are only good if they provide sex, and are not good enough if they provide other things, without sex included, or you have trust issues with women and only seem to trust someone as close as your partner. This is an incredibly narrow and uncharitable, and a huge jump to just assume. There are so many simpler, valid reasons that a man may not prefer female friends, without them being hateful or broken.

People are telling you that it's a net negative to have women as friends for themselves personally, for their own common reasons.

I used to want a relationship, thought I had a lot to give, generally. Then, luckily, I was able to get a bit of life experience and also grow up a bit, at least enough to learn that I don't and that romance is largely dictated in cynical, predetermined ways that a lot of people self righteously say it isn't. I don't want to pursue someone to the detriment of my own self respect or have anyone settle for me, and I similarly don't want to settle for anyone else. Being alone becomes your normal af…

I'm not super sure what you mean, especially as it relates to Ex-Machina. That movie only has three real characters.

The purpose of the movie is to make money. People engaging with its intentionally divisive message, whether positively or negatively, helps the movie accomplish that.

I didn't get that vibe from Ex-Machina at all, personally. The female presenting robot was manipulative and violent herself, and the two male main characters didn't seem particularly informed or motivated by their gender.

I wouldn't worry about it. A24 movies are very hit and miss, and anyway, targeted, emotionally charged media has always existed, to captivate those who respond to a given emotional niche, whether that engagement is positive or negative, it's still engagement all the same. It's not worth worrying about this any more than a dishonest political commentator. In fact, I think those people are far worse than any emotionally immature movie.

Yeah. It's the exact same social instincts and structure, with an added veneer of intellectual enlightenment that feeds into and justifies people's conventional social instincts.

Every time I see a woman on reddit say something like "ugh men need to leave me alone" I always ask them if they're willing to pick up the slack, and start approaching men when they stop approaching her? They never reply lmao. This is probably because their comments were mostly just venting, and they didn't want to have a debate about it.

Those people aren't actually seen as more attractive, that general shift in media towards body positivity only really encourages others not to outwardly look down on more unattractive people.

I believe credit cards were popularized in the 1920's, and I believe women weren't allowed to hold their own bank accounts or credit cards until the 1970's. I could be wrong, it's been a while
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates05/01/22 06:03 PM

How would that happen? Also I'm unfamiliar with that happening between men and women, that seems like a very abstract, inconsistent trend at best. And even if that was somehow a workable solution, two wrongs don't make a right. No one needs to willingly become less happy or settle for anyone, if we actually fix our way of life with real, tangible solutions that lift up both sexes.

I agree, we need to reestablish major "third places" in society where people can socialize and have a sense of community. Part of doing that is lessening people's economic stress by stopping corporations' control of our government, because their interests are directly opposed to facilitating a society more open to socializing, with more of these third places.

For most of human history, most humans did not have voting or land rights, Men were offered voting rights under the condition of military conscription. Its a double edged sword which haunts men to this day, to say that "Men had voting rights and women didn't and therefore men had it better" is ignoring the problematic context in which men were initially allowed to Vote. Modern banking is also a recent invention and the idea that women weren't allowed to open a bank account is a myth and IIRC wom…

Umm, Yes? What you seem to be implying here is that the only reason women would be with Men is money. No, I was saying that often in the past women would stay with men they didn't like because the alternative was financial destitution and general societal disenfranchisement. It sounds like you're a believer in the patriarchy theory.. I'd politely remind you that Men were no less disenfranchised than Women were, I won't accept this bullshit idea that men were/are "privileged". I don't really know…

What type is that? (probably the type that dont feel welcome in left spaces so they go elsewhere...curious) People who are chronically online. It increases the likelihood that they have social issues in real life, of course not guaranteeing it. As opposed to the left? or to what else? Keep in mind we're just 3 days out from Biden signing in the biggest military budget in the history of western civilization. Yeah, Biden isn't a leftist, lol. He's as neoliberal and corporatist as they come. If you…

Gamergate was where I dont know if I can name her here or not...a female game developer....made a game and that got rave reviews but then come to find she may have been dating quite a few game reviewers If I recall correctly, the game in question was free, and the allegations were untrue, I think perpetuated by an ex of the developer. Now from there I dont know what Steve Bannon could add or detract but from an outsider I was fairly incensed. Sure IF someone did want to piss alot of people off a…

Because when you dismiss the economic root causes of all this social strife, you're suggesting that there should be some other social solution, but I haven't heard any good ideas for what that could be. I can only think that some people want to somehow regress women's social progress to seemingly increase their chances of a woman shacking up with them out of necessity. And the ways women were disenfranchised from society in the past was a worse evil than the loneliness many men are dealing with …
/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates03/01/22 06:32 PM

Sure, although I don't think there's any primarily social solutions to this issue, since women having less freedom within the system was a worse evil than many men being lonely- I also don't think that somehow regressing women's social power will actually solve most of these men's loneliness problems; I don't think men who are currently online about these issues will be much more likely to get a relationship, let alone a happy one, by somehow making women worse off again. However, by solving the…

The right explicitly wants to entice guys by exploiting their social issues, it's a strategy that comes from the top down, for example Steve Bannon propagating Gamergate to his own political ends

Depends on the circles we're referring to as MRA's here, which is a pretty nebulous term to say the least. I could largely agree or disagree depending on what we consider a MRA group, but unfortunately due to the messaging failure on the left about this, MRA groups are definitely at least predisposed to be right wing. I even see echoes of right wing MRA rhetoric on this subreddit.

On the other hand, when those things happened to me I didn’t have a clue what was going on and MRA pages and videos then helped me very much. Yeah, this is the exact kind of thing that the right exploits because the left doesn't properly address it in otherwise progressive social circles. Men go to those outlets for sympathy and help because leftist spaces usually either don't provide that help at all or provide disingenuous, shitty advice like "be yourself, be confident, be happy yourself befor…

I'm genuinely sorry those things happened to you. Those friends and exes sound like shitty, disagreeable people. I don't usually think that any particular social issue drives people to go out of their way to act poorly or hurt others, I think a social issue is more likely to be used as an excuse to be shitty when the real cause is much simpler. I am somewhat deterministic about socioeconomics creating and driving many of these social issues, because I think it's true, and that people are super q…

I don't see men being shamed for appropriately approaching women in real life, just from online people whose rage and judgement has never mattered. Anytime it happens is an issue, but not necessarily important enough to politically focus on in favor of root causes. Almost every social issue, including dating, is largely driven by the socioeconomics happening in the background. "The right thrives on hatred" is a broadly phrased stereotype, but it's definitely true to a degree that it isn't for th…

I think that because leftists generally want the world to be run better with a more collectively intelligent and helpful/accessible economy, it's understandable, even virtuous, to want to apply these fairness principles to as many elements of socializing as possible. A lot of socializing and culture can be improved, but attraction and dating is fairly set in stone, I think, and often very unfair. Unfairness often leads to hatred, which the right thrives on, and they're aware that they can politi…
