| 3 | is it important for men and women to share political beliefs while dating?Get your European standards out of here, they make too much sense. In America, you either believe in having financial freedom or social freedom. Never both. Never none. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/10/21 05:21 PM |
| 4 | This is the reason why shouldn't date multiple people at the same time and use the other one as an option.I like hundreds of thousands of women. Every woman I see goes into one of two categories: would bang / would not bang. If I’m really bored, I can think of more categories, like: would bang a second time / would bang only once. You clearly don’t know what love is. Sure, to the untrained mind, the flood of emotions you get while doing the dirty dirty can easily be misinterpreted as love. But let me assure you, it’s not. Next, while you’re searching for potential partners, you need a way to organiz… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/21 10:37 AM |

| 1 | What do women really gain from being in LTRs or relationships with men?I was specifically referring to the number of men that receive alimony compared to women. Article like this quickly confirms their bias that women do receive special treatment, either legally or via cultural expectations. https://www.sflg.com/blog/2014/11/why-are-only-3-percent-of-alimony-recipients-men/ FYI, I’m neither here nor there on this. The statistic is what it is, and I’d need a lot more background information before making a judgment. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/21 07:20 PM |
| 1 | What do women really gain from being in LTRs or relationships with men?Well the manosphere looks at it like any other statistic is generally used. Reddit is particularly bad about saying “here’s a statistic, must be true” | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/21 06:40 PM |
| 1 | What do women really gain from being in LTRs or relationships with men?Vague question, since you’re involved in law (and I’m not). A lot of the language is “considerations” or like at the bottom “Any other factors the court determines are just and equitable.” Sounds like courts really have the freedom to do whatever they’re going to do. Are courts, more or less, obligated to follow precedent of earlier cases? Or do they have more freedom, based on how they feel at the time? Like to put this in context, I’m an engineer. Numbers go in, numbers come out. This level of… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/21 05:53 PM |
| 1 | What do women really gain from being in LTRs or relationships with men?I should probably replace “solely” with “primarily”. But yeah, i wouldn’t mind if you could walk me through how alimony works in like California. Never been through the process myself. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/21 05:25 PM |
| 2 | What do women really gain from being in LTRs or relationships with men?Obviously depends on the woman. Ideally in a relationship, you cover each other’s weaknesses. For many women, the primary benefit is income. Out of my 4 neighbor couples I regularly communicate with, 3 of the wives are stay at home mothers. Those 3 really don’t ever express any desire to get a job. They enjoy what they’re doing now. One of them divorced her husband, and already had his replacement picked out before the divorce was finalized. She’s now enjoying child support and alimony, and won’… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/21 03:18 PM |
| 6 | What do women really gain from being in LTRs or relationships with men?It may be less common, but doesn’t mean it’s non-existent. Alimony varies by state, but is often solely based on income difference. Smart and hard working doesn’t imply equal income. So when there’s a divorce, the court often sets out to give the lower earner (usually the woman) more money to help offset the quality of life change. For an extreme example, there’s MacKenzie Scott, ex-wife of Jeff Bezos. She got like 59 billion or something out of her divorce. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/21 02:54 PM |
| 1 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?See the several comments about men saying they’re controlling and prefer to be in relationships where they have control.

| 1 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?It’s not sidestepping if I never made the claim, girl. What you’re doing is called a straw man. I’ll link that shit for your uneducated ass. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man Show me where anyone said “a majority of men are tradcons”. Not one fucking person cares whether or not most men are “tradcons” No where did I mention most men. Secondly, you throw out “tradcons” as a way to move the goal posts. Original discussion was on controlling men. You further tried to back me in to a positio… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/21 10:38 AM |
| 2 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Then why you mad, girl? Think about this for a second, if entire cultures exhibit a behavior, why is it even remotely absurd that individuals outside that culture would exhibit a similar behavior? Get your uneducated ass off Reddit and back in school. You need to learn yourself some critical thinking. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/09/21 02:23 AM |
| 2 | Women don’t care if you’re sensitive, women don’t like or appreciate men expressing their emotions or showing any vulnerability when it comes to relationshipsPendulum has, in fact, swung to far in the opposite direction. At least in some circles | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 08:01 PM |
| 1 | Women don’t care if you’re sensitive, women don’t like or appreciate men expressing their emotions or showing any vulnerability when it comes to relationshipsToxic masculinity isn’t just reinforced by men. I do think there needs to be a balance though. You show too much weakness and it’s only understandable that you’re perceived as being weak. There’s some truth to RP when they say that many women want to feel secure and protected by men. And if you’re an emotional wreck, you don’t put off a sense of stability. I wouldn’t date an emotionally unstable woman (again). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 07:47 PM |

| 3 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?That’s what I’m thinking. Like what the hell are they even trying to say? Yeah, sure, as you’ve pointed out, my use of “absolute” is hyperbole. That’s not something I can defend. But that’s not even what they took issue with. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 07:26 PM |

| 2 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?I think there’s a certain truth in Red Pill statements. There’s a certain psychology to attraction and dating. And methods to explain are perfectly fine. What bothers me is the virgin fanatics on here that still live in their parent’s basement who claim they’ve figured out the entire human psyche. It’s quite a ridiculous claim. They wouldn’t be so mad about being incel if they did. Like your husband, I’m kind of Red Pill without being “Red Pill”. I think men should have balance in their own live… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 05:44 PM |

| 3 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?When you’re proven wrong, it doesn’t mean the goal posts were moved. It means the original statement that you support is wrong. The original person I responded to asserted that controlling men do not exist. I simply pointed at the most obvious example. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 05:33 PM |
| 1 | What makes a man desireable?I’m simply referring to numbers. It’s almost a pretty even split between males and females in most countries. Strictly talking about the numbers. If you have 100 males, 100 females. 70 males are in a relationship, 80 females are in a relationship. Either multiple women are dating the same man, or they’re dating each other. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 04:25 PM |
| 4 | What makes a man desireable?Why the 10% difference? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 04:13 PM |
| 4 | What makes a man desireable?Interesting. More women are in relationships than men. I didn’t think the stat would be that noticeable. Must be offset by lesbian and poly relationships? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 04:05 PM |

| 3 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Okay. Prove that controlling relationships do not exist. Here’s your chance. If that sounds like a ridiculous position to hold, it’s because it is. That’s literally where this discussion stemmed from. Homeboy does not think controlling domestic partners exist. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 01:29 PM |
| 3 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?It’s no about dating in the Middle East, it’s about human psychology. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 10:56 AM |
| 7 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Haha. Oof. When I was younger and more naive, I thought the regular stuff, like love conquers all. No matter what problems a relationship faced, I could work through them. I dated bipolar once. I do not recommend. That’s when I learned that I cannot fix people. Nothing I could do to make anything better. Everything I did made everything worse. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 02:56 AM |
| 5 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Lol, I tried to be careful when I described it for that reason. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/09/21 12:18 AM |
| 4 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Yknow, I didn’t realize OP said “significant portion of men”. So yeah, I see what you were pointing out. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 11:26 PM |
| 8 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?I don’t disagree. He needed her, just like she needed him. It’s weird to look at from my perspective. But they do appear to be happy and healthy (physically). And to be fair, I have no authority to quantify their mental health. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 11:19 PM |
| 7 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Happy cake day. Also, never said it applied to most men. But I don’t think OPs question applies to most men, since most men to not meet both requirements set by OP. Men that do, frequently have psychological or emotional issues. Psychology is inherently anecdotal. While you can apply statistics to anything, statistics provide little insight to how people think, even if they provide a lot of information on how they act. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 10:52 PM |
| 6 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Sure. But I don’t think OP was referring to average. Some of the loudest people on here are crazy. I think if you get most of us in the same room with a beer, you’d find out that most people aren’t too crazy. I also think that using finances is an entirely unhealthy manifestation of being needed, which can totally backfire on the man. And generally leads to low quality relationships. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 10:29 PM |
| 9 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Yeah… I can relate to that a little bit. My father frequently reminded us that his authority came from god. I was homeschooled for several years too. Was allowed to be independent, as long as that meant doing/saying/believing whatever he wanted me to. Spent a few years of my life adjusting back from the brainwashing. I think it’s scary how common it really is. I’m happy with where I ended up. Unfortunately, I can not give any advice on that. My wife is wonderful, but how I ended up with her is a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 10:20 PM |

I’m sure he thinks he’s doing the right thing. And yeah, debatably, he is. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 10:00 PM |

| 8 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Absolutely women can be as well. It does manifest in a different way though, I believe. More manipulative in nature. Playing victim and using social pressure | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 09:58 PM |
| 13 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?Not a single person mentioned red pill. Further, there is a toxic minority that exists on reddit that actually want to subjugate women and look to the middle east as an example of how women should be treated. One of the core tenants of the Red Pill is to explain HUMAN BEHAVIOR. It's rather ignorant of you to argue that just because it's a different culture, it doesn't apply here. Red Pill is about denying what society tells you to believe and look towards evolutionary psychology. I'm simply poin… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 09:56 PM |

| 6 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?So not a total ass. Just a partial ass. If she really is that dependent on him no ammount of ass is acceptable. Total control means total responsibility. I can get behind that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 07:58 PM |
| 25 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?It's dark, yeah. I don't mean to defend the position, but you also have to look through it with the lens of how emotionally damaged he was (or still is). He was already a fairly damaged person, emotionally. I guess as much as you'd expect people to be. Some history of being abused, drug abuse, etc. He went through a series of mediocre relationships before he thought he found found "the one". He really latched onto that girl, and I think was getting ready to marry her. She really was a great catc… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 07:57 PM |
| 8 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?His actions made sense, when you put them in perspective of the girl that just broke up with him. It absolutely devastated him. And it was a way for him to maintain control in his own life. I get that. Maybe I'm wrong on why he criticizes her, I was just looking for an explanation. He does say she's stupid, and that she wouldn't survive in life without him. But he's not ruthless towards her, there's still some amount of appreciation. I don't fully understand that one myself | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 07:38 PM |
| 95 | [Q4M] If you don’t want women to have careers/work, what do you expect them to do to obtain money, resources, and meet their needs?There exists, in some men, the desire to maintain absolute control in a relationship. The woman not working ensures that she must rely on the man 100% for food, shelter, etc. Resenting her for it is, in a way, enforcing the idea that the man is superior. I know someone who was absolutely devastated when his girlfriend broke up with him. His response was to go out and find a girl who was entirely dependent on him financially and emotionally. He married someone who is autistic enough that she need… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/09/21 04:36 PM |
| 2 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane idea“Dehumanizing” cannot have any moral implications if you can’t define what a human is, and justify why things that are less human don’t have the same moral implications when they are harmed. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 09:55 PM |
| 2 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaDon’t fall back on society’s standard. Because right now, society’s standard is that abortion is legal. Since it’s legal, it must be morally acceptable. That’s using your own logic. Done with you.

| 2 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaIf you can’t explain why killing a pig is morally acceptable, yet killing a human embryo is morally wrong, you have no business lecturing people on morals. “Because human embryo is human” is not an acceptable answer | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 08:58 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaIt’s very clear that your only argument is: “abortion is murder, because fertilized egg is human.” But back to my original statement, you’d never be able to program a computer to recognize what a human is. Interesting isn’t it? That YOU don’t know what a human is | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 08:30 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaNo, I said a strict definition. “Capacity for human thought and reasoning” Mentally sound is used differently within normal speech. Now answer my question, what’s the difference between the two embryos? It’s okay that you don’t know. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 08:28 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaNice straw man. Im kidding, this is a low quality debate. You’ve yet to answer my early posed questions. Or rebute that your whole argument is simply based on the future potential. EZ answer. Capacity for human thought and reasoning is the qualifier for being human. Think about this for a second. 2 embryos, one human, one pig. Why is it only murder with the human embryo? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 08:09 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaNo, it’s not as human as I am. I am absolutely suggesting that a fertilized egg is not as human as we are. It’s not thinking. There is no capacity for thought or feeling in a fertilized egg. That’s an absurd statement. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:55 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaYou’re ignoring the next 9 months that also have to go well. There is a high possibility that it will grow into what we recognize as a human, but there is a chance that it won’t. And that chance is probably higher than you’d expect. It’s simply a potential human. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:48 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaNo, it only undergoes they process if it remains in the womb. If ejected from the womb, that process stops. If you look at a fertilized egg under a microscope, it looks quite similar to a non-fertilized egg, except for an extra packet of dna. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:40 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaI don’t agree dude. Mere potential doesn’t determine humanity. If a child was born brain dead, it’d be murder to take it off life support, by your reasoning | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:32 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaWow. I knew courts often rule in favor of the children’s best interest, but that’s odd if both parents agree to it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:30 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaYou’re the one that suggested it is human, by virtue of it potentially growing to be human one day. Same thing can be said if any unfertilized egg. Letting an egg go unfertilized must be murder as well, right? It’s still human dna, wrapped up in a nice little package | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:21 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaSo conception? So it’s the mere fact that the fertilized egg has the potential to one-day be a human? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:09 PM |
| 2 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaI would guess that men can only sign away their parental rights if the mothers let them. Usually, the man is on the hook financially, if the mother wants him to be. I could be wrong though. And let’s be honest, most people don’t pass up a free pay check. Some do, but not most | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:07 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaI’ll take the bait. I’m not even really pro-choice, but your statement is loaded, so let’s debunk that. At what stage is it considered murder? When does a human become human? What are specific human traits, the absolute necessary ones, to determine what a human is. Like if you were teaching a computer. Describe to me exactly. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 07:04 PM |
| 1 | Texas abortion law has put a light on a really insane ideaThere’s been a lot of discussion on the internet that men should be able to financially abort a child, as long as it’s held to the same restrictions as a physical abortion. Counter-argument is that children who are financially aborted would suffer because of it. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/09/21 06:52 PM |

But there are other sources, like the companionship of good friends, the feeling of accomplishment, the appreciation for new knowledge or experiences, or even that content feeling you get from safety after a near death experience.

| 2 | "You don't need a relationship to be happy" is BS because happily married people of PPD aren't willing to rely on it with their own livesSorry to hear that. I’ve known a few people to commit suicide. But I think that kind of depression goes deeper. I believe they need more help than simply being in a relationship.

I think people can be happy without significant romantic relationships. I think you still need purpose and companionship, even if the companionship just comes from friends. I also believe a bad relationship is worse than no relationship. But I don’t think most people will stop seeking romance, nor do I think they should. A good relationship is a fulfilling part of life.

That’s like saying “if you don’t need a dad to grow up and function fine, you’re okay with me killing yours, right?” It’d be the same as asking anyone to empty out their bank account, sell all their possessions, and donate everything, because they say “money doesn’t buy happiness”. IMO, it’s really not a fair question. Of course I wouldn’t break up with my wife to prove a point. But to say I wasn’t happy before … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/09/21 05:55 PM |
| 1 | What do you consider to be "realistic standards" for your gender?It’s just supply and demand. People like driving up demand over artificial scarcity, see crypto. One thing that honestly bothers me a little bit is women’s unrealistic height expectation. Women than can’t use a tape measure know that they’re unwilling to date anyone under 6’.

| 1 | Men, would you get married in the USA? And if money wasn't an issue, would you live in another country to meet women?That’s fair. I don’t know how true it is. It may have a bit of truth to it. One problem I see is that if a woman is being nice and respectful just because she’s expected to, there is a component of the relationship that you’ll be lacking. There are many marriages that don’t have love, but they do have respect. And those marriages will often last. But I’m not sure that’s the type of relationship I’d want. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/09/21 12:24 AM |

I wouldn’t move simply to meet women, if I were single. Would travel just for the sake of traveling. But had I met the right woman when I was traveling as a young man, I probably would have stayed or figured out how to make it work. Wouldn’t have bothered me to stay in a different country.

I have no doubts that any arbitrary guy would totally try to date the most conniving woman and end up turning your work into a toxic shit-hole.

At least it’s often perceived that way. Since the natural doesn’t have to try as hard, when they start trying, they’ll surpass their peers.

Lots of women “love” douchebag celebrities, and don’t know them.

I spent so much time thinking I needed a woman to be happy, but what I really needed was a toxic relationship to teach me that I didn’t need one to be happy. She actually had the opposite effect. Once I was intrinsically happy, I become more popular with the girls (funny how t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/05/20 01:28 PM |

| 2 | Women gaslight men by pretending all we want is sexWe both know that isn’t true. Unless you look like the elephant man. There are plenty of ugly guys with hot wives/girlfriends, and in some of those cases, they’re attracted to the guy’s personality. So you need to figure out what they’re doing that you’re not. Regardless of what you believe, ranting to women about how you disagree with their behavior isn’t going to fix YOUR problem. If you work on your physical health and appearance, your social skills, your income potential, your self reliance … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/05/20 12:39 PM |

| 3 | Women gaslight men by pretending all we want is sexMaking yourself more physically, mentally, and emotionally attractive is literally the only think you can do to improve your odds on the sexual marketplace. You might not turn into Chad and be able to snatch up any pussy you desire, but no girl wants to bang your smelly little hobbit ass if all you do is sit in your cave and rant against women while eating hot pockets. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/05/20 10:52 AM |

Removing the ability for people to learn from their mistakes. Who even cares if it doesn’t mean anything more than a dating? It has religious and personal significance to many, and I’m totally okay with allowing it to have meaning for them. Our government has no business being involved in marriage, who I’m fucking is no business of theirs, or anyone else’s for that matter. If someone has meaning for you, great!

| 2 | Saying “If you want commitment, go for less desirable guys” is like saying “If you want commitment, go for guys who can’t do any better.”What a weak cop out. Some men learn from their mistakes. Become better men, stronger and wiser. You chose those insane women. You had all the freedom to steer clear. You fucked up. That’s on you. I don’t even judge, I did that too. Only took one crazy bitch for me to learn, though. My mom is the only woman that created me. Everyone else was just a lesson in life | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/05/20 10:27 PM |
| 2 | Making shit matter - Penalties for abandonment during illness, no-fault divorce, and more!I could see penalties under certain circumstances, but I’m fairly sure alimony already exists, and should be utilized when necessary. For example, an illness. Child support already exists. Forcing a good mom to stay with a bad dad (or vice versa) won’t help the situation. Kids are going to be fucked up anyway. But just to totally fuck an incompatible couple into remaining together because you believe they aught to? That’s a bit bold. I’ve been in a toxic relationship before, and it was terrible!… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/05/20 10:17 PM |

But it sure was a morale booster. Though I think you missed the point. When I tried, girls were able to tell. Something I doing was offputting, maybe cringy. After I got out of that bad relationship, I wasn’t even looking for a rebound. I literally just was happy to be free. I guess the girls would pick up on it. The best advice I can give guys is be happy with yourself. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/05/20 06:01 PM |

The one time it didn’t, I got in this horribly toxic relationship, and took me a year to get out. Anyway, I started college right at the end of that relationship, and I was slightly on the older end of the spectrum, like 24. I was so happy to be single and really had no interest in dating, I wasn’t even trying to flirt with girls, and I got a ridiculous amount of attention.

That doesn’t stop me (or anyone else, I think) from being sex crazed. I believe sex and affection are closely related, but driven by separate chemical processes. I show and receive plenty of affection from both males and females (I must have an innocent look). But that doesn’t seem to slow me down from appreciating a woman’s body (I worded that nicely).

Men (and women) don’t develop the right social skills. Everyone is busy being fake on social media. And it’s easy to get extremely hostile or judgmental over social media. Social media seems to be wrecking some havoc on interpersonal relationships. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/01/20 11:26 PM |

I’ve seen plenty of examples where women want (and get) the “bad guy”, only to find out he’s a total douche. 2 kids later, single mom is trying to hit me up. So, it really does go both ways. It’s pretty easy to convince one’s self that lust is love. You see someone attractive and you fill in the rest with wishful thinking. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/12/19 06:39 PM |

Everyone likes having something new. Most people don’t see or fully recognize the flaws in the beginning. I don’t think you’re necessarily wrong about women not getting what they really want, but I think it is due, in part, to not knowing what they want. Applies for men too. I thought I wanted a skinny, crazy slut... then I dated one. Found out I prefer the nerdy homebody that likes to cook, by dating one. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/12/19 12:53 AM |

| 3 | Why Men can financially support/accept their partner but women only want men who are financially stronger than them?1- it is more socially acceptable for men to support women than vice versa. This idea seems to be a carryover from earlier eras, when men brought home food, and a woman’s number one priority was giving birth and raising children. 2- just because that is more socially acceptable does not mean it is the only case. There are definitely many women that make more money than their spouse. There are even many women that are the sole income earners for the family, 3- regardless of social norms or statis… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/12/19 01:31 PM |
| 4 | Guys in relationships with women who had casual sex feel like they're losingDisagree. Seems like you think women are strictly sexual objects that you have to “pay” to be rewarded. I enjoy being around my significant other. While we both have our physical needs, the rest of our time is spent actually enjoying each others company. We’re best friends. We wouldn’t be together if sex was the only thing we wanted. Pro-tip: Marry your best friend and you won’t feel like you’re just paying for sex. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/11/19 12:22 AM |

Some men are far needier (emotionally) than many women are, and vice versa. I’ve seen both sides, they both exist. Both society and expectations suggest that women are more needy, and that may be true on average. But some of that is probably due to societal gender roles and expectations.

There are some logistical concerns to be considered when you throw a couple women into an all male unit. Normally, they try to separate male and female berthing/barracks. You’d probably want to assign the unit a female doctor, in addition to the normally male doctors. I peed in a 2” pvc pipe for like two months. I don’t think there were any women on that FOB.

| 3 | You cannot be pro-male and pro-female. The sexual and relationship market places are a zero sum game. To want better for one sex, is to want things to be worse for the other.Upvoted. I’m all for empowering women to put them on equal footing with men (where reasonable), and argue for the same for men (when reasonable). There’s never going to be true equality, since our biology is different, but we should be able to get fairly close in regards to laws and social treatment. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/04/19 07:40 PM |

We’ve seen what is considered attractive constantly change throughout history. Very fair skin, for example, was and is considered attractive in many cultures. But in America, very fair skin is not seen as attractive as having a “healthy tan”. Attractiveness is not completely driven by biological factors, cultural influences also play a large role.

| 4 | Lover vs. Provider is REALJust depends on the person. Kids don’t want to play with their old toys, unless another kid is playing with it, then they’re jealous. Many adults aren’t vastly different than children. New toys are always more exciting, for a little while. So yeah, you’re right. But I wouldn’t want to be married to a woman completely driven by those emotions. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/12/18 06:00 PM |
| 2 | Lover vs. Provider is REALThat as a blanket statement just isn’t true. Haven’t you seen or heard about how much attention a guy gets once he’s in a committed relationship or married? There’s something to be said about the confidence boost on the male’s part, but a wedding ring is just a challenge to many girls. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/12/18 03:29 PM |

| 1 | The notion that women are all getting "bullshit degrees" is false.Fair enough. I believe more women would do fine in STEM, if they chose to. ME was a tough degree at my school, but the few girls that put in the time and effort did just as well or better than the average male. They tended to be just as good at math. I don't think mechanical intuition comes as easy to most females as it does males, but I think that's cultural upbringing. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/05/17 08:03 PM |

But I'm not gonna fight for that, I'll settle for the paying full and getting out of child support. What is really funny though, is if the man wanted to keep the child and the woman wanted an abortion, we could never find common ground for equality.
