It’s because it’s a man trolling as a woman.

Many women on here have stopped trying to engage on here because it just goes in logical fallacy circles. But the Red Pill still needs someone to “prove wrong”. This is far from the only post of its type.

Because they’re not actually a woman and are shit posting.

Because you’re literally allowing someone to enter your body in a way that opens you up to violence and less power and control. Male or female, or anyone really, working in the sex industry tend to have a history of victimization because they have been trained to serve others. It’s typically not empowering in any way. Sex workers are also at a much greater risk of being murdered, beaten, raped, robbed, etc.

What does ego have to do with it? If you’re defining ego in this case as caring about how much you value *yourself* and positive perception of yourself, how is that worth it? No.

Self worth and self care. It’s hard to feel good about yourself when your body is not your own. That applies to more jobs than just sex work, where you feel like you have little control. Sex workers are allowed to be picky when they don’t work under someone and aren’t desperate for the money. But that’s a rare situation, so, most of the time they’re being fucked by people they don’t want.

But it kind of does directly correlate with red pill. I would argue it’s even worse than calling yourself an incel. It’s like, incels are squares and all red pill are rectangles (which includes squares)

So… wait for it… go for a woman who is mature, and ready for a serious relationship. Because young men do the same exact shit. And then most of us develop more and become ready for a serious relationship. Most of the time you all are taking about 18-23 year old women.

This feels disingenuous, but if we’re assuming it’s real… Maybe she’s had it happen recently. Maybe she’s trying to manage it. Maybe thinking about having sex with someone new is triggering for her, which is super understandable. If she opens up about this when she comes over with the intent to fuck, she’s probably not in the best mindset for it, and it’d be best to give her a soft spot to lay her head for the night or help her home. Many people, not just women, who are sexually traumatized seek…

Bro you talk like you just took psych 101 and English 101 in college. Maybe speaking about human beings like they’re a research paper isn’t the best approach. But even if you were doing that, you have to have evidence or it’s just opinions stated like facts

I love when you guys are just like: “data jargon and sweeping judgements… because the studies say this!” And never actually provide evidence. If you’re going to claim it’s beyond just your own experience, and you’re going to speak like studies say this, you have to back it up.

Maybe women who were raised by parents that reflect those traits, but the majority of women really don’t find that attractive. Narcissists and sociopaths are usually not as charming and cunning as you’d see in the movies. They’re often pretty fallible and think they’re more intelligent than they are. Do women get charmed for a moment when they’re not in the best state? Sure. A lot of them wake up to it though. And many of these types specifically seek women that are people-pleasers and have trai…

Right. A lot of therapy is not emotions-based. This post seems to be encouraging the stigma against men seeking mental health support. Taking care of your mind is just as important as taking care of your body. And with both of these, having a professional’s help is better than trying to wing it.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/04/26 09:43 PM

Nah, this is a bad take. I like going to bars but it’s totally valid to not like them and not want to find someone there.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/04/26 06:09 PM

My man is on the shorter side, and when I’ve asked him if it bothers him he says he doesn’t really think about it. His confidence is attractive to me. Most women who aren’t shallow won’t reject you for it. Others might just have it as a valid preference, especially if they’re on the tall side themselves.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/04/26 06:06 PM

Right, like if she “likes him enough” and he seems to want something non monogamous, she’d probably let him go to find a woman that suits him better in that way. Not stick around and suffer through it.
/r/PurplePillDebate21/04/26 07:56 PM

I certainly don’t have the time or energy for that, even if I wanted to be like that. And I don’t. Lol

All of these “points” that RP tries to offer are fairly common-sense. And points they would easily learn by listening to women and what the type of woman they want to attract values. Often, the RP focuses on the values or lack thereof of women they don’t even want, beyond maybe sexually. If they actually want a partnership (which is questionable) they would value the opinions and thoughts of the people they might actually want to end up with. And not the women they are mad at for not wanting the…

I’m not sure what your stance or point is here. Every human, man or woman, would benefit from trying and working to improve. As for lowering standards, that’s not necessarily true. If a person does the work to understand who they are at the core and learns to relate to other people on a deep level, they should rather easily understand their own “league” for lack of a better word. In fact, most studies find that most successful relationships are between people with similar levels of culturally-ac…

Don’t tell them how to be quieter about it. We need them to out themselves to our younger generations. From my understanding, the young women are very low-tolerance for their rhetoric.

Women are typically great nurturers. Many are very giving in several ways. They also often provide emotional support. The lingerie industry is pretty well off too. Women put in a lot of effort into their appearance.

Problem is, most of the time it’s not about sex drive/libido. For a lot of women in LTR who stop having sex it’s about a lack of effort in other areas.

If you don’t like the stats on dating sites then don’t use them?
/r/PurplePillDebate08/04/26 05:51 PM

I agree! However, we need to keep the systems that made it this way in mind. And also encourage men who care about women to learn how to please them.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/04/26 10:39 PM

Sure. But unfortunately a lot of men don’t care about making a woman cum.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/04/26 10:33 PM

There’s also unfortunately way too few studies on women and sex.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/04/26 10:15 PM

I can read and understand the point he’s trying to make. Thanks!
/r/PurplePillDebate07/04/26 10:10 PM

If he’s viewing it as a challenge and being like that about it, I feel like he’s likely missing the point. He could be focusing sex around it, which makes her feel pressured to perform. Sex should be focused around both people.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/04/26 10:08 PM

For me, orgasms in general are all about the mental side. If i like them, we’ve had a great day/date, I feel appreciated, they take the time to focus on me, etc. that all helps. There needs to be some “emotional foreplay.” Does size matter, eh, sure. To a point. But enthusiasm and passion is 10x more important. PIV orgasms specifically from that are rare (for me). But he makes sure I cum every time clitorally during penetration.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/04/26 10:05 PM

Hi! I wonder if the study suggests this because there’s likely a lack of enthusiasm or follow-through on the man’s end if he knows she only cums from clitoral stimulation. As someone who has experienced both, it’s not so much about where it’s coming from, but when it’s happening. There are MANY ways to ensure clitoral orgasm at the same time that he cums, during penetration. Get creative! And yes, I would say when it happens at the same time with a person you adore, it’s amazing.

A lot of people like people who are similar to them. There’s been a lot of studies that show people are drawn to other people that are similar to them and find comfort in it. This is the case with anything from SES to level of activity.

For that to be the case it would have no logical connection to what you said. You suggested that a couple should always have regular sex, I asked about men who have ED. You said the average adult is capable of having sex, I brought up the massive market for viagra. ED impacts roughly 77% of the adult male population. It is connected.

Half of what causes harassment and sexual assault is about control over another person. Maybe they can play out some of those fantasies with a sex robot, but it’s not going to stop them from also wanting to exert control over real humans.

No, they’re not equivalent. I’d rather my child work a job where their bodies aren’t being disrespected and they’re not in serious danger. I used the military reference because I believe that is the closest comparison, as a military veteran myself. Especially as a woman (but also for men) there’s a lot of risk of assault just as there is in sex work. You’re also signing your body away to the government. Even getting a severe sunburn can result in punishment for damaging government property.

Even if this weren’t a 20 year old study, I think you need to re-read the conclusions and limitations. The study found no clear evidence (or statistically significant data) that suggests mate preferences actually influence who people pursue as a romantic partner.

I’m curious which generalization you think I’m trying to make. I would say that generalizations are often significantly more acceptable/accurate than absolutes. But any debate topic is basically required to be a generalization or an absolute for it to be valid for debate. I’d prefer to offer a generalization. And if you don’t understand what you’re saying, I think maybe you don’t understand the concept of debate.

Birth rates aren’t actually lower, that’s a myth that’s been pushed a ton the last couple of years. As for marriage and divorce, I think it’s fantastic that women are taking the time to decide if marriage is something they want, and feeling capable of leaving a marriage when it’s unhealthy.

That’s not how it works for most women
/r/PurplePillDebate24/03/26 03:47 AM

Sex workers who sell sex in the USA are often trafficked, encouraged to become addicted/reliant on drugs, may be underage, and may feel trapped by the money from the profession. In a regulated country? Maybe. But in the USA, it is entirely unethical. Edit to add: many of them were manipulated or forced into the work at a very young age.
/r/PurplePillDebate24/03/26 03:46 AM

No, I wouldn’t, but okay. I mean maybe the cats because I love cats. But I’m very happy with where I’m at and I’m in a very happy relationship.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/26 05:48 PM

Okay, that’s likely her projecting and that sucks. A strong relationships should probably be able to outlast someone’s shitty advice though. And one example of a woman giving shitty advice, maybe on purpose, still doesn’t prove anything.

To be clear, two texts alone does not seem desperate. Like if it’s one after the other on the same topic. If you text once and don’t get a reply for a while so you text again, that’s where the problem is. Also, if this only happens once in a while and the second text isn’t being pushy isn’t not really a big deal.

The biggest issue is when men are seeking dating advice from women they’re often insecure if not a bit desperate. Women can pick up on that very easily and typically don’t want to date someone like that. So, even if they take the woman’s advice, they still need to work on their confidence.

Lmfao, yes, one of the most common and reliable forms of data gathering. A survey. Are there downsides to surveys to gather information? Sure. But if you’re about to suggest it invalidates the information that’s been studied too and you would be wrong. Studies like this already account for a margin of error as well. They also include the limitations of the study and suggest other possible explanations. In other words. “Science.”
/r/PurplePillDebate23/03/26 02:59 AM

Could the answer potentially be because men are engaging more in casual sex? Here’s a study by NIH finding that younger generations are having less sex. Though, I think you’re still avoiding answering how you know that “most” women on this sub are mostly in their 40s. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27480753/

It’s not a biological science, it’s a social construct. So no, there is no objective truth to it. Maybe it would be more confident if there were one, sure. It doesn’t lose meaning though. If anything, having different ideas on it just expands its meaning and opens up communication on the topic.

If I have strong feelings for someone, having sex is deeply intimate and brings out the emotional side of things more quickly. It may also make me feel more attached before a title or exclusivity is discussed, which could leave me significantly more hurt if things don’t work out.

I’d like to add, men like you seem to want women to be totally available to you, like you or fuck off, be or nearly be nearly virgins, and not be uptight. Like they’re meant to settle with the first jerk that shows them affection and suddenly also be great at sex

You do understand sarcasm, right? Maybe they weren’t trying to make it difficult, maybe they just weren’t that into you. Your last two sentences are enlightening. You seem to expect women to not see you as a man who just wants to fuck them, but then you say you’re just now trying to go for women that you don’t just want to fuck.

Would you not be concerned about moving too fast with someone? I’ve found that when I find a guy I feel is a catch and I move too fast, I often regret it.

Masculinity, from a man’s perspective, is often rigid and defined by other men, for men. It encourages men to be competitive and put each other down. Femininity from a men’s perspective is often just another expectation men are setting for other people. It’s men saying how they expect a woman to behave and appear.

I’m still respectful even if it’s unwanted. There was one time a man offered to buy me a drink and I said no thank you I have a boyfriend.

I was also raised to fawn, appease, and sacrifice my own comfort to ensure others feel comfortable. So now that I’m learned to express myself I feel espically anxious about that.

I would hope that someone coming onto me has taken the time to see if I’m giving signals back. Or if I’m explicitly showing interest. It has nothing to do with if I find them attractive/unattractive. There was a fairly attractive man at a bar I sat at for lunch the other day. He was clearly very into sports (I’m not) and seemed to be trying to give signals. I gave zero back, and he said/did nothing. This is how it “should” be in my mind. Edit: thinking about it more, I’d like to add that I felt …

Huh? Explicit communication is great. I’d prefer some rando person doesn’t just walk up to me and ask for my number though.

As a bisexual woman I’d say it’s the same for anyone I’m interested in. It’s a look, an expression, eye contact, a text message with extra enthusiasm and emotes. Sometimes it’s just slowly turning a conversation flirty, or getting deep with someone about a topic and that draws us closer. I think it should be mutual where both are giving clear signals before asking for a number, a date or initiating physical touch.

If you’re into tradition gender roles: shoot for equity, it’ll get you far and keep the relationship alive.

When will men learn that if you don’t stick so strongly to gender roles, you’ll find that women don’t expect you to solely provide? It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy. You want to be the strong man and have a submissive wife. But you don’t want to be with someone who expects you to provide money and labor….
