| 32 | Why Does it Always Feel Like Men are Coercing Me to Have Sex..Because they are. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/09/20 11:12 PM |
| 41 | Dependent girls are the female version of nice guys, I realized (as a concept)I feel like the book "why men love bitches" nails this. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/09/20 06:22 AM |
| 5 | So, in OkCupid you can look for men by questions. If you ask: is it wrong for men to watch porn in a relationship ONLY 4 MEN SAID YES! 🤢🤮🤬 So men will continue to look at other women having sex because you are not enough?!😂😂😂 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/09/20 05:41 AM |
| 23 | How does FDS apply to those of us already in relationships?Is he a HVM? | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 02/09/20 06:52 AM |
| 16 | If he wants you to have an OnlyFans or is okay with you having an OnlyFans = LV?I understand and for the most part I agree with everything you've said, I don't think women engaging in sex work makes them bad people. However regardless of the reasons it is low value and in the context of leveling up or a relationship with a HVM, a HVM would not want a relationship with a sex worker. And to be real the majority of women doing only fans are doing so out of privilege, because it's currently on trend and promoted by libfem and pickme culture as an empowering and liberating thing… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 02/09/20 02:28 AM |
| 58 | If he wants you to have an OnlyFans or is okay with you having an OnlyFans = LV?Yes it's very low value behaviour of both the man and the woman with the OF. It's an unpopular truth that libfems love to deny, but no high quality person would associate themselves with such a thing. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 01/09/20 10:40 PM |
| 8 | Insecure about my ageI recently turned 30 and it's been the best age of my life, I've never felt sexier or more confident and I've never had so many men chasing me and trying to lock me down. The wall is something I've only ever read about on here, it does not reflect the reality of being a 30+ woman. I will say that men my age are fewer as the majority of the men I attract are early to late 20s and mid to late 30s but I'm not complaining, most men 40 plus I've encountered very much appreciate me but put me in the "… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 01/09/20 10:32 PM |
| 10 | He doesn’t necessarily prefer that you “don’t wear makeup”: he’d just hate that you might expect anything from him.Bingo! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 26/08/20 11:17 PM |
| 64 | Being a Tall womanI’m the same height as you, my solution is to only be with men over 6ft tall. In my experience men shorter than that often suffer from Napoleon complexes. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 25/08/20 10:19 PM |
| 4 | Another LVM to add to the trash pileI’m wondering the same because I’ve had a few guys compliment my brows now and thought it was odd 😂 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 25/08/20 12:55 PM |
| 70 | Is he really too busy?You’re not being crazy, he is stringing you along. When a man is truly interested in you, you will never doubt it, he will make it clear with his actions which includes making time for you. It’s 2020, we’re all busy, but we make time for the things we care about. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 25/08/20 02:26 AM |
| 14 | How would you answer these dating Qs as an HVW?I would never answer such questions, at least not until later in dating or getting to know them. There’s too many narcissistic, manipulative and low value men that use this kind of information as a way in and to use you. I would be very vague in my answers until they had demonstrated a lot of the qualities I’m looking for and given value. Actions speak. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/08/20 01:51 AM |
| 16 | HVM has only known me for a month and wants to get married????There are so many red flags here that my eyes hurt 😳 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/08/20 04:05 PM |
| 121 | Another oneMen are actually clueless and generally cannot tell if a girl is wearing makeup or not and what’s natural or not, they think these women are “natural” beauties and are completely oblivious to what actually goes into creating their looks. I get my brows and nails done, lash extensions, wear makeup and sometimes a spray tan and men are none the wiser, they don’t know that it’s not “natural” lol | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/08/20 08:30 AM |
| 4 | When and how do you tell a guy you’re a mom?It’s a tough one, the obvious thing would seem to disclose it immediately but there are a lot LVM men who specifically target single mothers to exploit, as well as pedophiles out there. I have 3 kids, I generally mention I’m a mum off the bat but keep the rest of the details very vague and see any early interest in my children as a red flag | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/08/20 11:48 PM |
| 7 | How do HVMs approach 'alone time' and 'space'He just tells me straight up “I’m going through______ at the moment so if I’m not as responsive or attentive as usual that’s why and I don’t want you to think it’s about you” | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/08/20 02:25 AM |
| 33 | Came across this old post. Sadly, it’s not satire. There’s just so much wrong here.I came to say exactly this! These are not the words of a man who has ever seen or touched a real life breast lol | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 17/08/20 02:15 AM |

| 6 | Thoughts?I would seriously side eye the intentions and self esteem of someone who derives their confidence that way, it’s low value imo | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 01/08/20 01:43 AM |
| 5 | I fucked up and became too emotionally vulnerable too quickly, and I’m not sure if I should cut my losses and move on or continue.I get love bombing vibes from this, he’s saying he wants to take it slowly (mirroring you) but behaving the complete opposite way. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 30/07/20 11:24 PM |
| 11 | How to explain that he should pay?You don’t say anything, if a man attempts to make you pay then you pay and never see him again | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 30/07/20 08:02 AM |
| 20 | Guy asked for my number on bumble, I kind of didn't give it to him now I regret itNothing, he has ruled himself out by not being willing to continue the conversation on bumble, that’s a red flag | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 25/07/20 09:18 AM |
| 10 | How to respond when PickMe’s say you are “slut shaming” when you point out that showing your ass on the Internet is thirsty and embarrassing ?I generally just assert that these are my own morals and standards and that I don’t have to approve of something just to validate somebody else. If they’re honestly okay with what they’re doing then they shouldn’t be concerned by what I think, the truth is they know it’s low value and that’s why they get so triggered and try to shame and belittle anyone who doesn’t support it, ironic hey. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/07/20 04:39 AM |
| 26 | breaking mom and TikToks are my birth control 😬I have 3 kids and I don’t really relate to any of these things, yes there was sleeplessness and hard times, postpartum changes can be hard to adjust to etc, but in mum culture a lot of it is over exaggerated as a form of dark humour. Having a useless partner would definitely exacerbate it all too! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/07/20 04:36 AM |
| 85 | Unbelievable. This is only his third message to me.In Australia ‘mad c_nt” is a common term of endearment. As an Australian woman I don’t mind being called that by some people in the right context, to me this is not the right context. This kind of colloquialism/ slang is generally used in extremely casual situations and often by people of lower intelligence or socioeconomic status, it’s certainly not a great opener for a person you would like to impress. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 23/07/20 03:41 PM |
| 48 | Thoughts?Hormonal birth control is terribly destructive to our bodies, the idea that we need to suppress and destroy our fertility to be always sexually available to men without consequence to them is gross and not very feminist at all. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/07/20 03:22 AM |
| 12 | Queen from the startI’m in this situation, you can still utilise FDS and hold him to the same standards as you would anyone else. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/07/20 02:59 AM |
| 18 | In your experience do most men drink beer/alcohol like its water?A lot of these men will turn in to alcoholics. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/07/20 11:42 PM |
| 36 | The Difference Between Being Used Versus Engaging In Sex: ReciprocationExcellent post! I’m exactly like you, I absolutely love giving blow jobs to a man who I trust and adore and who appreciates and reciprocates my efforts. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/07/20 02:02 AM |
| 28 | Ladies, if you're in your early 30s, how old is too old?I’m 30 and I won’t date younger at all, and no more than a few years older. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/07/20 06:07 AM |
| 7 | Is this a common issue? Guys doing chores/housework badly on purpose so stop asking them to do it...I beat them to it! I love cooking and I’m an excellent cook but I keep it low key and you’d be surprised how often men try to woo me with their culinary skills. I’m also pretty domestic, I take pride in my home and genuinely enjoy keeping it clean and tidy, but I keep this on the down low too. It really works lol | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 15/07/20 05:21 AM |
| 179 | Is it a red flag if a man in his late twenties doesn’t speak to his mom ?For me it’s an orange flag. Some people have genuinely toxic, abusive and neglectful parents, I did, and in that case cutting them off is self care. In absence of those things and if their differences and disagreements seem trivial then it’s a massive red flag. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/07/20 03:46 AM |
| 12 | Cut off “friend with benefits” of three years five months ago and he contacted me again - what’s his motive?His motive is sex, that’s pretty much every mans motive for anything ever. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/07/20 04:05 PM |
| 100 | Men who prefer a toxic woman over a loving, respectful HVWWhy does everyone say she’s rude and disrespectful? Maybe she just has boundaries and doesn’t feel the need to pander to everyone or impress anyone? Just because she’s not a ‘nice girl’, it doesn’t make her low value. Have you read the book “why men love bitches”? Maybe she’s a ‘bitch’ 🤷♀️ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 10/07/20 08:05 AM |
| 31 | LVM and sex early onActions speak, a block and delete says it all, there’s no need for words. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 10/07/20 05:10 AM |
| 2 | Love bombing vs Normal interestIt’s scary in the beginning, being with a narc is like being on drugs, the highs, the lows, the withdrawals and loving them even though they’re terrible for you. A healthy relationship is like sobriety in comparison, it’s hard to adjust to. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 10/07/20 02:42 AM |
| 49 | Love bombing vs Normal interestMy ex love bombed me hard, long story short I ended up getting engaged and pregnant to him really quickly because I believed it was true love and that he was the one, he turned out to be an alcoholic narcissist. I’m currently getting to know another man romantically and sometimes the lack of grandiose gestures, pedestaling, constant words of affirmation, constant contact, talking about the future etc, has me feeling like he’s not that into me. It’s silly because I know he adores me, he tells me … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/07/20 06:35 AM |
| 69 | Don’t make fun of yourself, even jokingly, or guys will jump right on it and try to put you down even furtherI have a very self deprecating sense of humour, a guy I’m getting to know hates it, he’s always calling me out for putting myself down. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/07/20 05:04 AM |
| 10 | Going from a narcissistic asshole to successful good guy?When you’re used to narcissistic abuse a healthy relationship feels wrong. I’m in a very similar position except I had kids to my narc. Our relationship has been over for months now and I know I’m not ready but there is a guy I like, and he’s so normal, patient, kind and caring that it feels completely alien to me. I keep waiting for a red flag, a bad mood, a put down, jealously etc, basically any sign that he’s not good, yet there are none. I know I’m not ready to enter into anything with this … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/07/20 03:39 AM |
| 14 | Is it possible for a LVM to better himself and become a HVM, in order to make himself a suitable match for a HVW?I believe strongly that people change, I’m currently watching a good friend transition from LVM to someone with huge HVM potential. BUT in saying that, you should never ever date a guy for his potential, it’s way too high risk. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/06/20 09:27 AM |
| 16 | This one triggered me.I have 3 and it’s a vulgar thing to say imo but I have seen it used a lot by parents | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/06/20 09:20 AM |

| 72 | Men only take me seriously when I look “hot”I don’t do online dating but I can confirm that men treat you significantly better when you look good. If I go out in casual lounge type clothes, no makeup etc it’s like I’m invisible. When I put the effort in and choose nice clothes, do my hair makeup and all that, I get lots of positive attention from men, just small things like saying hello, opening doors for me, helping me with things. The difference is like night and day. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/06/20 04:22 AM |
| 14 | How to stop being needy and detach emotionally from menBest post! I really needed this, thank you | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/06/20 10:43 AM |
| 24 | How do you guys feel about all body hair?When I was younger it was something I was concerned with but now I’m 30 it’s a total non issue. I’ll shave sometimes and sometimes just let it all grow, I haven’t touched my pubic hair in years except for a slight trim, I’ve never been shamed nor encountered a man who has a problem with it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/06/20 05:12 AM |
| 69 | I have created an HVM. You're welcome, ladies.To me reaching out to an ex to tell them how well you’re doing and thanking them for it, is strange behaviour. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/06/20 08:35 AM |
| 14 | What range of price is acceptable for gifts on bdays?I would urge against getting him a gift at all, a nice card or a small sentimental token like a photo or his favourite sweet is more than enough. Leave the spoiling and gift giving to him. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 07/06/20 11:06 PM |

| 72 | He went for a kiss after I told him I wasn't interestedWalks are not dates, you were guaranteed a LVM by agreeing to such a date. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 29/05/20 04:20 AM |
| 29 | Is it a red flag that my boyfriend is against pedophiles being killed???Pedophile part aside, If he’s against the death penalty in general for anyone then that’s a perfectly reasonable stance imo, even though I don’t personally agree with it, some people are just anti capital punishment. Only you can decide if such difference in beliefs is a dealbreaker in your relationship or not. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/05/20 03:09 PM |
| 102 | Am I reverting to pickme ways?Absolutely do not play therapist to some LVM who didn’t want kids but still went and got his girlfriend pregnant. He needs to put his big boy panties on and work through this with his poor pregnant partner, you know the one who’s body and life this will affect the most. What a self absorbed prick. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/05/20 02:33 PM |
| 20 | How to stay charming in a relationship?You have to maintain some mystery. The problem when couples become official is that they can quickly fall into a rut and habit of putting too much time and effort into the relationship. Basically don’t live in each other’s pockets, maintain your own separate lives, hobbies and interests and never allow your man to become complacent, even when you official he still needs to work for your affection and attention and prove himself worthy of it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/05/20 10:02 AM |
| 11 | My aunt pretends she can't cook so all the men in her life do it for herI always pretend to be absolutely hopeless with anything handy or dirty work, truth is I can change my own light bulbs and prune my own hedges and I know my way around a circuit box, but I also like lightening my load 🤷♀️ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 27/05/20 07:52 AM |
| 46 | Do I have to be a ice queen to be a HVW? I wear my heart on my sleeve but I have boundaries. What do you think?Vulnerability is a strength, the problem comes from what people think vulnerability means vs what it really is. Being vulnerable is not being emotional or sharing all your darkest secrets and fears, it’s not about trusting anyone or talking about your feelings, or giving people power over you. Vulnerability is being true to yourself, being honest, being able to speak your mind and heart without fear of what people will think of it, it’s knowing not everyone is going to approve and you don’t even… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 27/05/20 05:52 AM |

If dinner is on me it will be something low effort, preferably take out or something out of a packet or microwave. I cooked every night, delicious meals from scratch for my nvm ex and he never appreciated it or me.

| 7 | Man blatantly disregards my "NO". I say don't call, I don't like it. He calls right after.Goes to show how different we all are, I much prefer phone calls to texting and would take it as a positive sign if a man would rather talk properly than text, I consider constant texting to be low effort.

| 29 | Your dignity comes first no matter how much you think you love him. Period.It’s a great book, it helped me a lot too. Never ever sacrifice any of yourself or what you enjoy for a man, always have your own life and priorities.

| 52 | What Awesome Things Did You Accomplish After Getting Rid of the LVM or NVM?I’ve changed and grown so much, it’s like I’m not even the same person. I enjoy my space and home unapologetically without having to consider somebody else’s moods and needs (except my kids). It’s the small things, being able to watch what I want, eat what I want, stay up as long as I like without being judged or nagged. Everything I do is just for me. I learned that I really really enjoy my own company. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/05/20 03:01 AM |
| 26 | What’s the thing about FDS that you struggle the most with ?This is a good one! I think we all make the mistake of thinking others think and feel like we do when that couldn’t be further from the truth. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/05/20 01:21 AM |
| 5 | How should an HVM react when you make mistakes?It’s really hard to fathom because we’re so used to LVM, but a HVM would not give you the silent treatment, that’s really manipulative and childish behaviour. A HVM if he was serious about you would be honest and open about how he’s feeling and want to talk about it and work through it, he wouldn’t push you away or attempt to punish you by pulling back. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/05/20 11:46 PM |
| 15 | Doesn’t it feel like a woman have to choose between a Homer Simpson and Ned Flanders?I’m not religious and I know religion can bring a host of other issues so there’s that, but religion in essence gives people someone higher than themselves to answer and be accountable to. It also provides a code of morals and ethics that non religious men would see little point or incentive in upholding. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/05/20 11:41 PM |

| 69 | Caught my “best friend” taking inappropriate photos of meThere’s no such thing as truly platonic male and female friendships, 9 times out of 10 this is how your male friends will see you.

| 8 | How often do you expect to hear from your partner?Once a man feels like he’s got you on the hook, he will put in less effort because he thinks he doesn’t need to try win you over anymore, he’s already got you. Telling him how you feel as far as wanting to hear from him more and that if you don’t you think he hates you and doesn’t want you, just reinforces that to him. Even HVM are still men and nobody responds well to neediness. Men don’t respond to emotions, men respond to no contact, I would back away and focus on yourself, if he really is HV… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 08/05/20 12:12 AM |
| 58 | Should I expect a Mother’s Day Gift?Personally I wouldn’t expect that, to me it would be weird. Birthdays, Christmas, anniversary, valentines etc, definitely, but not Mother’s Day, you’re not his mother and you don’t have children together. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 06/05/20 12:49 PM |

| 6 | FDS and dating when you might be considered LV?I wouldn’t think you were low value at all, you sound like a high value woman to me, just with low self esteem. At the end of the day being high value isn’t really defined by finances or the affordability of your housing or whether you have kids or not, it’s about the person that you are, your ambition, values, morals etc | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 06/05/20 04:38 AM |

| 17 | Do you date when youre not your ideal weight ?I personally don’t think it makes much difference, it’s your confidence and how you feel about and project yourself that matters. I’ve been both very thin and overweight, I’m now in the middle and I haven’t noticed a difference in my attractiveness to and relationships with men at any certain size. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/05/20 08:44 AM |
| 6 | What’s the difference between a LVM and a NVM?A simple way of looking at it I find is a LVM adds nothing of value to your life, a NVM actually subtracts value, aka drags you down. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/05/20 01:46 AM |

You’re welcome to your own opinions but I would just be careful giving out non FDS advice in FDS, there are plenty of other dating forums that don’t have a strong stance on drink dates, we are against them. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/05/20 09:39 AM |

| 16 | I hate how common it is for men to do degrading/ abusive shit during sexI read so much about this kind of behaviour on here and I’m lucky I haven’t really experienced anything like this. I’m not sure if it’s because of my age (30+) or because I’ve only been intimate with few men, all who were long term boyfriends. I just can’t believe how common it is, it makes me scared to put myself out there and meet new men/ date. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/04/20 11:09 AM |

| 37 | Millennials grew up when LibFems were pushing porn & TradCons were pushing abstinence education, both of which massively failed to teach women anything good or helpful about our sexuality. Meanwhile, racist middle aged perverts used porn to groom an entire generation of men to sexually abuse us.It all comes down to two extremes of consent, obviously consent is important but one side says you should never consent and the other side says that all that matters is consent, and both are wrong. This libfem idea that anything goes as long as you consent is disingenuous and dangerous for women. Consent is the absolute bare minimum requirement for any type sexual contact, there needs to be way more than just consent. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/03/20 01:20 PM |

| 2 | New, working my way through the handbook, and had a couple questionsI think you may have misread or misunderstood these two points, FDS does not encourage women to rely on men financially, actually the complete opposite, you MUST remain financially independent, however it is not wise to pay for or even go 50/50 on dates. This is about weeding out LVM, men who will use you, lead you on and take advantage of you, which is much easier for them to do if you’re a cheap date. Having a man pay for your dinner and drinks is hardly being taken care of financially, it’s a… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/03/20 03:50 PM |

Kissing and making out is fine, anything beyond that I would be weary, sex doesn’t have to be penetrative, for example oral sex is sex.

It’s purely platonic on his behalf, he’s never said anything even remotely inappropriate or sexualised me, he’s great to talk to, great listener, very intelligent, kind, funny, successful, moral...

Don’t we all deserve to be spoilt though?I think a lot of women say they don’t care or don’t celebrate it because 1. They’re so used to being let down or 2. They’re setting their expectations really low so that they can’t be let down. That’s not to say there aren’t women who genuinely don’t care for it, I know some don’t, but I think secretly most would not object to someone going out of their way and making an effort to spoil or appreciate them. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 14/02/20 08:03 AM |

| 3 | Friendly reminder that some women CAN have a FWB and never get emotionally attachedIs this the forum for it though? For the women who want that kind of thing, there’s literally dozens of subs that will cheer them on and be all “go get that d girlll”, this is one of the only ones that tell women they deserve better and shouldn’t settle for that. It’s not shaming, if they feel shame about it then maybe they really need to take the advice here. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/02/20 01:52 PM |
| 10 | Friendly reminder that some women CAN have a FWB and never get emotionally attachedI don’t think catching feelings is the main concern people have about fwb, a concern but hardly the most detrimental one.
