| 1 | Humans utilize a dualistic approach to matingIf society thinks that a behavior is immoral and a group of people thinks that the same behavior is amoral, then it has the same outcome for the group as for them to say the behavior is moral. They oppose society as a whole. The reason for that lies in evolution, see the paragraph above. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/09/15 06:21 AM |
| 2 | Humans utilize a dualistic approach to matingGaming the system is exactly what you think it is. Throughout evolution society could only function if the vast majority of men were "BB". Children without a providing father were almost guaranteed to die. This means that the "BB" were the backbone of society and this view got ingrained in moral values. Even though nowadays children no longer die without a providing father, the moral values of ancient times are still planted in people's heads. People on TRP seem to understand that and also conce… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/09/15 07:37 PM |
| 3 | Humans utilize a dualistic approach to matingI think that most people would agree that short-term and long-term mating strategies exist. Most people would also be perfectly OK with short-term mating inasmuch it is a 'natural' phenomenon. Womanizers have existed throughout history due to their natural charisma and looks. What pisses people off is the systematic approach TRP takes on short-term mating. This is where it goes against common morality. Here is a bunch of dudes that are no natural womanizers that are trying to game the system. Do… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/09/15 04:55 PM |
| 2 | An intense interventionMolyneux explains how the guy feels the relationship will be threatened if he asserts himself. Brings up guy's relationship with mom. Comes out that he couldn't strongly disagree with her without her withholding affection and care. Which is a huge reason why many men nowadays become pushovers in relationships. Agreed, even though these callers may sound a bit extreme, the fundamental problem is actually very common amongst men. The big take home message is that the spineless guy can ONLY fix his… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/08/15 04:36 AM |
| 1 | CMV: Rational thought cannot be used to understand sexual attraction.Increased social awareness is generally an impediment to courtship success. Do you think that a horny dog puts lots of thought into the best strategy on how to approach bitches? No, he just goes for it. That's why the rational approach to mating is always inferior to the don't-think-just-do approach. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/08/15 07:51 AM |

| 0 | How does a woman keep the dick pointed at her direction?It may make people happier, but it may also make society more vulnerable as a whole. People can do whatever they want may also translate to "no one gives a shit about anything" which leads to social, cultural and moral decay and eventually to the fall of the civilization.

| 1 | How does a woman keep the dick pointed at her direction?Honestly I don't know. I haven't heard compelling arguments from either side of the debate if long-term relationships are essential or not for society. Likely there is a trade-off, but is it big enough to have negative effects? I see it as a logical consequence of a society that shifts from growth in a harsh environment to decadence. One thing I know is that we have seen that before in Ancient Rome and that didn't end too well. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/08/15 03:48 PM |

| 1 | How does a woman keep the dick pointed at her direction?You could say that men as a whole are too stupid. Men in our society are not becoming more dominant, if anything they are becoming more feminine. I don't see any signs of reversal of this trend. Men that act dominant and object the moral values of society at large become ostracized. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/08/15 11:10 AM |
| 1 | What is your alternative to evo psych for explaining patterns of human behavior?That's exactly the point. Nobody knows what percentage is learned and what percentage is innate. As a result, you cannot make predictions of human behavior. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/08/15 09:19 AM |
| 6 | Can someome explain other countries divorce laws?Germany/Austria: After a divorce, men in most cases lose the house, lose child custody and have to pay alimonies. But the public awareness is literally zero and people just tell men to suck it up and not be a pussy about it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/08/15 07:22 AM |
| 1 | Why does TRP not make r/K selection theory their core concept?Humans are mainly a K-selected species. A large number of r-selected males would be detrimental to the society. That's why r-selected traits have primarily negative connotations. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/08/15 06:29 AM |
| 7 | CMV: Being a traditionalist/conservative is the only way of TRP unless you have nihilistic tendencies.I believe feminism is harmful to society. Can you elaborate on that? What does "harmful to society" actually mean? Does it mean that the society will perish and all humans will die? Does it mean there will be human suffering? Does it mean that the economy will go down? "Harmful to society" is using big words, but it doesn't mean a whole lot since literally everything is "society". | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/08/15 10:44 AM |

Those days are gone and there is no going back. Individual freedom is something people won't have taken from them. Even if there was some major collapse of society, people would blame it on all sorts of socioeconomic factors rather than libertarianism. That said, how would you even envision collapse of society caused by libertarianism?

| 1 | Are there any takedowns of the evolutionary idea of sexual selection?The theory of sexual selection dates back to Darwin, Bateman and Trivers and is pretty much text book knowledge, so you won't find many biologists that have strong arguments against it. There is of course discussion about the details concerning specific species and a general cautiousness when it comes to its application to the psychology of humans. Most criticism will come from the feminist camp concerning sexual selection specific to humans. This site should give a nice overview of the criticis… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/08/15 05:20 PM |

| 1 | Are there any takedowns of the evolutionary idea of sexual selection?If you want to read a recent review of sexual selection theory, I would recommend this one: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ajpa.22394/abstract;jsessionid=C40D4816C850CCF607507DC2AF277398.f04t04 This review simply presents the data in a descriptive manner without stepping into psychology. Also, if you want to discuss specific theories or findings of evolutionary psychology, it would be best if you make a thread that links to the publication(s). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/08/15 04:33 PM |
| 2 | Are there any takedowns of the evolutionary idea of sexual selection?Let's take an example, courtship behavior. In flies, this behavior is completely innate: The male fly will always do the same pattern of dancing and singing around the female. Humans also have a courtship behavior. Part of it is innate. However the margin of behavioral possibilities is so huge to the point where it becomes impossible to make clear delineations of what defines human courtship behavior and what not. In order to incorporate all possibilities, you end up with a definition so broad t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/08/15 07:19 AM |
| 1 | Are there any takedowns of the evolutionary idea of sexual selection?Agreed, human behavior becomes predictable if you know the input and the processing. However, each of those factors is so complex that you would have to essentially incorporate thousands of parameters into your model to make any valid predictions about individual behavior. Psychology is not doing any of that (because it's impossible). That's why it fails to make predictive statements about human behavior. All psychology does is retrograde description: "Oh this person behaves like this, so he mus… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/08/15 06:56 AM |
| 1 | Are there any takedowns of the evolutionary idea of sexual selection?People can adapt and put on layers above but they cannot change their animalistic nature. Sure, but that also means that we cannot predict behaviors by only considering the animalistic nature. A simple example would be the observation that "men are inherently aggressive and violent". How can you use that information to make predictions about modern male behavior? The answer is you can not. You can say "men only have the tendency to be aggressive and violent". But how does that help you in modern… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/08/15 06:23 AM |
| 1 | Are there any takedowns of the evolutionary idea of sexual selection?What is key to realize is that the theory of sexual selection centers around concepts of "paternal investment" and "survival of offspring". In our society both those concepts are shifting from its ancient meaning. Fathers increasingly start taking care of children and the acquisition of resources to ensure the survival of offspring has become less important due to the welfare state and automatization. So the theory of sexual selection is still intact, however our behaviors are adapting to the ch… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/08/15 05:40 AM |

| 1 | Are there any takedowns of the evolutionary idea of sexual selection?I have a background in biology and I fully subscribe to the concept of evolution and sexual dimorphisms. However, when it comes to evolutionary psychology I have my doubts. There is a lot of bullshitting and theory crafting going on in that field. What people often overlook is that humans due to their superior mental capacities are the only animal species that have the possibility to completely change their social structure. A change in social structure also leads to a change in behavior. The mo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/08/15 04:51 AM |
| 0 | Bluepill, list all the Logical fallacies you believe TRP engages in. Redpill, refute those fallacies.That would only give you insights into the choice of those women that went through divorce and remarriage. But the hypothesis states that ALL women have the propensity for hypergamy. That given the opportunity, all women will leave their partner for a higher status male. How would you test that? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/08/15 07:56 PM |
| 1 | Bluepill, list all the Logical fallacies you believe TRP engages in. Redpill, refute those fallacies.How would you design the experiment that tests the hypothesis of hypergamy?

| 10 | If AWALT is true, why do you care about her sexual history?Paternity tests exist mainly to settle legal issues regarding child support, inheritance, adoption, immigration, etc. If a father demands a paternity test just to satisfy his curiosity it is often construed as a breach of trust in the relationship. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/08/15 10:28 AM |
| 3 | If AWALT is true, why do you care about her sexual history?If a male commits to a female, he wants to ensure that the children he raises are actually his own. Just like hypergamy, this is more of an innate behavior resulting from sexual dimorphisms in sexual strategy rather than a conscious act of decision making. That is not to say that changes in sexual strategies, as they are occurring in our society, cannot partially override these innate tendencies. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/08/15 09:51 AM |
| 1 | Is it hypocrisy if a woman says she is a feminist, and wants men to pay for dinners/outings on dates?I agree, I haven't met any feminists or women in general that would expect the man to pay. Out of convenience, it would often be "I pay this time, you pay next time". | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/08/15 09:00 AM |
| 0 | The discussion to end most discussion about AWALTSure, you can criticize AWALT, no problem with that. That's not the issue. The issue is that AWALT is immune to criticism. You follow AWALT as a heuristic in order to maximize your happiness in life. How should there ever be a debate about another person's happiness? There is no measure of a successful outcome. Everyone has a different opinion on what makes him happy. That's why basically every single debate on this subreddit is bound to fail from the get go. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/08/15 05:22 PM |
| 2 | The discussion to end most discussion about AWALTPresenting AWALT as a heuristic makes lots of sense, however that doesn't mean that it becomes exempt from scientific scrutiny. The outcome of two different heuristic approaches is still something measurable and therefore scientifically tractable. However if you cannot compare the outcomes of two different approaches (as is the case with AWALT and NAWALT), then there is no discussion to be had.

| 2 | I'm a true feministI would be OK with feminism if all women were true feminists, that is, if they all would acknowledge the responsibility that comes with authority. Also the idea that women can be turned into men is all good on paper but meets some obvious obstacles in the form of pregnancy, maternal bond, hormones and female preferences. As a result, feminism is doing more harm than good to women in that it devalues what women are naturally good at.

| 2 | Do you think Thomas Jefferson's biotruths sound a lot like the red pill's?Comparing the number of genes or chromosomes gives you no real indication of the degree the resulting phenotypes will differ. The reason for that is that transcriptional regulation is usually more complicated than "gene exists or not". A simple example would be the sex determination genes on the Y chromosome that regulate a number of genes on the autosomes. That means, genes whose code looks exactly the same between sexes will be expressed differently depending on the presence of transcription f… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/08/15 03:16 PM |
| 3 | If most divorces are because of alpha widowism , why are younger people more likely to divorce ?I'm not sure why make a post like this if you are not even interested in an answer. A MGTOW video will be as good as it gets, because any other channel wouldn't even dare to touch this topic. As I said, the guy in the video puts forward a very sound logical argumentation. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/08/15 12:41 PM |
| 1 | If most divorces are because of alpha widowism , why are younger people more likely to divorce ?The whole concept is beautifully explained in this video: https://youtu.be/KkPVNTB1570?t=1m39s The professor in the video is very logically rigorous and manages to explain the concept of "alpha widowism" without resorting to an alpha/beta dichotomy. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/08/15 12:29 PM |
| 1 | Why should we say that women , as a group, are inferior ?but I doubt that it effects everything. It does not have to affect "everything". If you would have any idea of how transcription factor networks work, you would see that ONE gene on the Y chromosome is enough to influence a number of genes on the autosomes. Genomic imprinting is a fairly rare phenomenon in mammals If 1% of genes are imprinted, we are still talking about 200 genes. You were started accusing me of not having an alternative hypothesis. Yes, rightly so. The theory of sexual selectio… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/08/15 07:23 AM |

| 1 | The mystery behind pursuing lots of womenHaha, you are turning around the logic for a third time now, congratulations! So now you say an alpha may spin plates or he may not spin plates. In both scenarios he would be an alpha. Now this is the BIG question I am asking: [drumroll] "If alphas are not defined by their pursuit of women, why does TRP place so much emphasis on the pursuit of women?" | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/15 06:11 PM |
| -1 | The mystery behind pursuing lots of womenSure, but that means that you are letting other people (society) decide over your life and they are getting away with it. If you want to have a family, there should be no reason not to make it happen. Marriage is optional, but even if you are married, it always takes two people to end up in a divorce. Cause and effect. Equipped with red pill knowledge you should know how to behave as a man in marriage. And the "safe choice" of raising a kid alone is obviously not an option. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/15 06:06 PM |
| 1 | The mystery behind pursuing lots of womenThis is painfully obvious. So much so that I fail to see the point of saying it. It means that your argument that "dating is fun and not a waste of time" is not 100% correct. Yeah, some guys, maybe. But most in TRP would hold onto the main plate and consider upgrading her, if she were that good. If that is the end goal of most people in TRP, then why is there so much focus on short-term mating in /r/TheRedPill?

Since you reject LTRs and have a lower sex drive will you just live alone from 40-80, that is 40 years? "Constantly courting new women" is called "dating".

| 2 | Why should we say that women , as a group, are inferior ?"Objectively" here means "as an outside non-human observer". Consider a human who observes an ant colony: For him to say "The workers are superior to the queen" would be a ridiculous statement. Both workers and queen are critical for survival of the ant colony. The workers are better at working, the queen is better at producing eggs. Now consider another statement: "An NBA player is superior to a heart surgeon". This statement is equally ridiculous because both fulfill different roles. The NBA p… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/15 06:18 AM |
| 2 | Why should we say that women , as a group, are inferior ?The Y chromosome is generally considered to be the main factor that defines sexual dimorphisms in humans. See http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169534798015675 For the second question look up 'genomic imprinting'. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/15 03:05 AM |
| 2 | Why should we say that women , as a group, are inferior ?Generally, males have a Y chromosome that is not passed on to female offspring (Males: XY, Females: XX). In addition, even on autosomes some alleles can be asymmetrically affected via epigenetics (e.g. paternal imprinting). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/15 12:29 AM |
| 13 | Why should we say that women , as a group, are inferior ?I don't think it's the feminists who say that women are inferior I didn't say that. What I said is that feminists started to value the things males are naturally good at (competition) more than their own strengths (parental investment). As a result, the feminist movement unwillingly put women into a position of inferiority. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/15 12:31 PM |
| 15 | Why should we say that women , as a group, are inferior ?It really depends on what is valued in a society. Objectively, no one sex is superior to the other. But here it is where things get more complicated. In biology, the members of one sex compete against each other for access to the other sex that has to carry the most weight of parental investment. Mind that it is not always the males who compete in all animal species. There are certain bird species who have the roles reversed: Females give birth and males take over care of the child. As a result,… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/15 12:01 PM |

| 1 | My problem with The Red Pill sub-redditA self-help group is obviously not the place to discuss science because of group think and the lack of peer review or the scientific method. As far as I know, challenging red pill ideas is even disallowed on /r/TRP. But you can go to /r/evopsych or /r/psychology and ask them what they think of red pill concepts. That said, I would not mind having a subreddit that is dedicated to discussing solely the science behind red pill without all the self-help and dating aspects. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/08/15 06:59 AM |
| 3 | CMV: High status males never need to approach women, they get approachedThe point is that the high status male does not "want" it as much because he sees the abundance of women. It is the opposite mentality of the average chump who sees pursuing women as the highest goal in life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/08/15 02:53 PM |
| 0 | CMV: High status males never need to approach women, they get approachedWell observed, the world is not fair. And that is why it is so important for the normal chump to acquire the mindset of the high status male. This is a matter of completely changing ones motivations regarding women. Remember, the high status male thinks that women are low on demand. This is exactly the kind of mindset the normal chump needs to get into. By centering his life around women, the normal chump inevitably reaches a ceiling sooner or later. However by realizing that sex and women are l… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/08/15 02:30 PM |
| 0 | CMV: High status males never need to approach women, they get approachedThe conclusion I draw from it is that for the normal chump attaining high status has priority over pursuing women. Any effort he spends on pickup and pursuing women is not spent on acquiring high status and therefore lost effort. Once he has achieved high status, women will flock. You have to acquire the mindset of the high status male. And that is the one that women are not on high demand. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/08/15 01:50 PM |
| -1 | CMV: High status males never need to approach women, they get approachedIncorrect, you are again assuming that there is a motivation to want the cake. If you can have all the cake in the world, cake becomes completely uninteresting. This is basic psychology. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/08/15 01:35 PM |
| 0 | CMV: High status males never need to approach women, they get approachedYes, exactly. The high status male sees a shift from him pursuing women to him being the one being pursued. The power dynamic has shifted. Suddenly the gatekeeper of commitment is the one being on high demand. Meanwhile all the normal chumps are still pursuing women because they think the gatekeepers of sex are on high demand. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/08/15 01:28 PM |
| 0 | CMV: High status males never need to approach women, they get approachedNo, that's not what I'm saying. Read again! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/08/15 01:16 PM |
| -1 | CMV: High status males never need to approach women, they get approachedAgreed. Then it becomes a question of "what the man wants to happen". And my argument is that a high status male that is flocked by women will not have the motivation to put effort into approaching women because he understands that he is the one that is sought after. Women understand that subconsciously and see men who actively pursue as lower status. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/08/15 12:53 PM |
| -1 | CMV: High status males never need to approach women, they get approachedI thought that "not putting women on a pedestal" was one of the basic tenets of red pill knowledge. So when you say "omg, I will never see this woman again, I have to approach", you are putting her on a pedestal. A high status male realizes that he is the one who is putting value on the table. Women have to put in some effort in order to raise his interest. As a result, the high status male will never chase women or initiate contact. He sees "fucking tons of chicks" never as a major goal in life… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/08/15 10:53 AM |
