2	What type of women do Redpill tactics work on? Google 'male dating advice' and tell me when you find an article telling you to lift weights.	/r/PurplePillDebate	16/08/15 05:55 PM
2	[Discussion] RP people, list RP things which you did which are exclusive to RP/Manosphere mentality and not generic self-improvement advice, that were successful. BP, list things you did which go against RP philosophy and were successful. Common sense things which any sane BPer agrees will make you more attractive to women, that is found on any other PUA indeed self improvement blog: Go google 'male dating tips'. Find me a result that advises weight lifting. Everyone keeps saying this is common sense and everyone knows it, but self improvement as a whole is rarely given as advice, and weight lifting/fitness espicially are not discussed. Hell here is the link: https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UT…	/r/PurplePillDebate	28/07/15 05:12 PM
2	PPD Partner Count Stats Why is everyone claiming the sample size is too small? Drug trials often only have 12 people in each condition. The difference here is stark. It depends on the variance - but frankly the sample variance of the 'blue flair' category is so small (since the numbers are low) that I would guess this is statistically significant.	/r/PurplePillDebate	30/06/15 07:35 PM
3	Watching Bob's Burgers: Normalizing domestic abuse, ignoring consent, and victim blaming. The portrayal of Men's issues in the media seems relevant to Men's Rights I think we can discuss all those things.	/r/MensRights	23/09/14 03:55 AM
7	How men get SCREWED on life insurance premiums This is all true. However, the same situation existed in health insurance with the genders reversed (Women used more health care, and therefore had to pay higher premiums). This practice was made illegal in the case where women were disadvantaged (health insurance), but it's perfectly legal in the cases where men are disadvantaged (car insurance, life insurance). That legislation reeks of gender bias. http://ivn.us/2012/03/27/affordable-care-act-womens-health-the-end-of-gender-rating/	/r/MensRights	25/07/14 09:51 PM
2	Over a million men are unknowingly raising a child that isn't theirs. The women who do this are committing a crime. (Post-Purge Version) No, but I don't see how it's relevant. Why should the courts care less about the kids of those who perpetuate more traditional crime?	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 11:51 PM
3	Over a million men are unknowingly raising a child that isn't theirs. The women who do this are committing a crime. (Post-Purge Version) The child itself has nothing to do with paternity fraud either. The woman perpetuating it does.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 11:40 PM
7	Over a million men are unknowingly raising a child that isn't theirs. The women who do this are committing a crime. (Post-Purge Version) Not to the same extent. The first goal of the trial isn't figuring out the best interest of the child.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 11:26 PM
1	Is it wrong if it works? You said that consumers are being taken advantage of unless they already intended to spend money. If you change their intention to make a purchase, then they didn't initially intend to make a purchase. Which, by your statement, means you took advantage of them. Therefore, by your statement, changing intention -> taking advantage.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 10:08 PM
11	Over a million men are unknowingly raising a child that isn't theirs. The women who do this are committing a crime. (Post-Purge Version) I think it's interesting that in this kind of theft, people ask what's best for the child. But for any other kind of crime that question is not central. When a parent steals from their partner, we must do what's best for the child. When a parent steals from a store, the child is barely mentioned, if at all.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 10:04 PM
1	Is it wrong if it works? That's actually what you're implying, which is what I find interesting. You said "Unless a customer already intended spend money, yeah they're being taken advantage of". That statement directly implies that changing intention is the same as taking advantage of someone.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 09:56 PM
1	Is it wrong if it works? By your definition, anytime you change someones intention you're taking advantage of them, right? So, going back, any sales person has poor morality if they convince someone to buy their product, right?	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 09:48 PM
1	Is it wrong if it works? So salespeople have poor morality if they convince someone to buy their product?	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 09:43 PM
1	Is it wrong if it works? By your standard, a salesperson prevents consumers from willfully making purchases. They should be charged with theft.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 09:31 PM
0	Is the notion that men hit their SMV peak at 35 wishful thinking? If you just take the fact that women tend to pair off with older men, then the dating will change. Take preferences that are fairly common on a dating site: a woman wants to date someone their age or older, and a man will want to date someone their age or younger. As you get older, the womans pool shrinks, and the mens pool expands. This means that as a male, you're generally competiting with those your age and up whereas a woman is generally competiting with their age and down. Compare a 20 yea…	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 09:25 PM
0	Is the notion that men hit their SMV peak at 35 wishful thinking? TRP generally does not say that 'she must now suffer the consequences of her decisions'. There are tons of stories every day posted about women settling down with provider-types. Women can and do play this game, and TRP is about playing the same game right back. Second, I think the narrative is that men's become much higher relative to females their age, not relative to their younger selves. Age itself isn't an attractive characteristic, but Men overtime get money, stability, and expanded dating…	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/06/14 08:47 PM
2	I don't full understand the Red Pill views on certain topics. Possibly - haven't seen it myself. My guess is that if you started a thread asking 'My gf doesn't put out, should I cheat?', the reply would be to 'next' her immediately.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/05/14 10:52 PM
16	I don't full understand the Red Pill views on certain topics. I wish the held true in society, but it isn't. They don't cast movies by finding the kindest men they can. Girls in clubs aren't asking about your charitable work.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/05/14 10:50 PM
20	I don't full understand the Red Pill views on certain topics. From my understanding of TRP: 1) Against - it's a distraction and you should be going after the real thing. 2) Absolutely would not blame the female. Part of redpill is about being responsible for yourself. If you make a mistake, go fix it. The male there would have failed to make a proper descision. 3) Against cheating. If you aren't getting what you need from a relationship, end it. That being said, it's healthy for other girls to be interested in you as it raises your value. 4) No real rules …	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/05/14 10:30 PM
1	Feminists tell female reporter that they are inclusive and everyone is welcome.. Until they find out she is a conservative. Most republican states are overweight.	/r/MensRights	04/04/14 02:38 AM
1	Feminists tell female reporter that they are inclusive and everyone is welcome.. Until they find out she is a conservative. If this holds, certainly seems to imply that the way for a woman to get ahead in the conservative party is to be attractive.	/r/MensRights	03/04/14 03:53 PM
3	been doing research into feminist theory and stumbled across this gem. that this way of thinking is considered scholarly and taught to students is really gonna set us back Basically I think her not understanding relativity. If you don't get relativity, then you might wonder why we use the speed of light as the constant, instead of something else (like 1 km/h). She is arguing we use the fastest one because men are obsessed with the fastest, rather than something relatable. Her mistake is that the speed of light is the ONLY constant speed in a relativistic universe, so that's why it's used in the equation.	/r/MensRights	01/04/14 07:03 PM

1	Twitter / im_adam_barrett: What is even happening right now- Men's Rights Halifax creates major uproar! Do we have a citation on that? (That the majority of child abusers are women). I couldn't find one.	/r/MensRights	25/03/14 04:55 PM
22	A 15-year-old boy who was raped by a 34-year-old woman now faces child support. You're right - the child deserves support. Why don't you give funds, instead of the rape victim?	/r/MensRights	01/09/13 01:58 AM
1	Can we talk about 50:50 custody of children? Just curious, what are the factors? Edit: (1) The wishes of the child's parents as to custody and the proposed parenting plan submitted by both parties; (2) The needs of the child for a frequent, continuing and meaningful relationship with both parents and the ability and willingness of parents to actively perform their functions as mother and father for the needs of the child; (3) The interaction and interrelationship of the child with parents, siblings, and any other person who may significant…	/r/MensRights	26/08/13 08:49 PM

8	This has been circulating around Greek life at my school. Take a look at number nine. The whole thing is pretty stupid. It'd be more accurate to replace every instance of 'fraternities members' with 'people whose families can afford fraternity dues'.	/r/MensRights	28/07/13 08:55 PM

-16	"Sick of being treated like the enemy, guys are dropping out of society" Life involves risk - period. If you cross the street you might get hit by a car. That is more likely to happen to you than being randomly charged with sexual assault. If you're afraid of any kind of risk, you'll miss out on a huge portion of life's experiences, like what's on the other side of the street.	/r/MensRights	30/06/13 09:14 PM
-12	"Sick of being treated like the enemy, guys are dropping out of society" False rape accusations are rare. Not as rare as some feminist groups say, which is a big issue, but still rare. Same with women inseminating themselves. I get your logic - it's good that you're thinking critically about societies expectations. But, with that, you should be open to new experiences, especially ones so universally enjoyed as the romantic company of someone else. I could construct a similar argument about why you shouldn't try any number of other things, including My Little Pony. "I…	/r/MensRights	30/06/13 08:29 PM
-16	"Sick of being treated like the enemy, guys are dropping out of society" I think you're making a terrible mistake. As much anecdotal evidence as you might see here, the standard relationship a 20 year old would have does not have any legal ramifications. Just don't get married for a while. Relationships and sexuality are a huge part of life that you'd be missing out on. They're both skills, and you get better at them, so you should start soon.	/r/MensRights	30/06/13 08:04 PM
