| 13 | Research Paper claims: (1) Men tend to fall in love more readily than women; (2) women tend to fall out of love more readily than men. Seems to explain / describe hypergamy (and a few other dating phenomena).The 2nd sounds like walkaway wife syndrome. Men often seem to want a status quo in relationships and hope issues go away if they ignore it. The woman keeps hoping for a while that he will change, then eventually realizes it won’t, gives up and leaves. And the paper equals “in love” with not leaving. In a “traditional” dynamic men have more opportunity to distance themselves from an unhappy relationship without breaking up- either by burying themselves into work, or just going home ignoring the f… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/12/20 12:17 AM |
| 1 | How old were you when you first noticed men looking at you sexually?I was about 9-10 when social media had its first pages. I had a photo on one of those and a stranger, 40ish man wrote an message that I looked cute on it. At that time I didn’t think much of it but mentioned it to my parents and they freaked out, my dad wrote back an e-mail that he didn’t let me read but I assume it was not nice. About 10 when I was on some play site where we had characters and could chat and I talked to a guy who claimed to be 20 and he asked me to be in a “relationship” and ma… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/11/20 10:59 AM |
| 7 | To women that seek out partners a foot taller than them... Why?Well, I’m one of the short girls and i can’t understand this approach. I have found tall guys attractive, but also had crushes on average guys as well. Interestingly, the short guys i knew were the first to mention how short i was or make fun of my height. That’s a quick way to lose sympathy. It takes two to tango and if the tall guys made the first step and i liked them, what was i supposed to do, send them away? People have preferences and some have the opportunity to choose. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/08/20 02:38 PM |
| 2 | "I suck with women because I get high math grades" has got to be the stupidest cop out in the history of PPDI think it’s entirely possible. Tool usage is also an important way to describe intelligence and learning. One component is whether the tools are combined to solve a problem, or not, and whether it’s used with intentionality or in a trial-error way. Another is whether they teach each other- if one solved a problem, do they show others how to do it, or everyone has to figure it out on their own? The first part was based on my studies, the second is my speculation. Now with more developed communic… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/05/20 07:17 AM |
| 3 | "I suck with women because I get high math grades" has got to be the stupidest cop out in the history of PPDLanguage should be a quite good proof that communicating with others helped our development as a species. But if you want an actual hypothesis, Robin Dunbar has the social brain hypothesis- he argues that human intelligence evolved to make humans succesful in complex social groups. In evolutionary psychology, mind reading theory is one of the hottest topic. It’s the ability to assume others have mental states, intents, feelings, thoughts, and being able to understand and reflect to those- it’s o… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/05/20 12:12 AM |

| 1 | Waist circumference statistics suggest that women might be significantly fatter than menSo it is possible that my waist is almost closer to my chest than my belly button? Because I do have a curve (which I use for measurement to track progress) that’s the narrowest part on my upper body, but it’s halfway between my breast and belly button. I always wondered if my measurements are off and I should just use the tape at belly button level. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/20 01:59 PM |
| 2 | Why are most guys overweight if they're already struggling with women. Do they simply not realize the benefits or is it due to popular "wisdom" that looks don't matter?I think OP isn’t talking about shredded, just a healthy (or somewhat muscular than healthy) frame. Which can be earned without all of the things you listed. And carrying 100-200 lbs of fat is also not the natural state of humans. Eating all day, consistently more than what you body needs, consuming food that is ultra proccessed, drowning in sugar and fat, plus moving way less than our ancestors did on a typical day is also not the natural state of humans. That’s why we have an obesity epidemic a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/20 01:12 PM |
| 21 | Waist circumference statistics suggest that women might be significantly fatter than menWhere did you get the idea that women don’t typically store fat around their waist? Where you gain first depends on genetics, and waist is not less typical than hips or thighs. While it’s true than men tend to grow beer guts first, there is a big variety in women’s body types, and that’s an important factor in fat distribution. Have you not heard about the different body shapes in women (or, observed it)? Apple shaped women’s literal description is that they tend to gain weight on the stomach ar… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/20 12:26 PM |
| 3 | A lot of issues brought up on this sub aren’t gender-specific, and tend to be people-specific in actualityI will never forget the thread where OP and several other posters tried to explain that if they explicitly claim they’re looking for a relationship, somehow it’s the girl’s fault for taking it at face value and being upset after being used for a ONS. It’s one thing to use vague definitons (which happens a lot in the sub), but when someone tries to tell that words mean something different than what 95% of the population thinks it means, that’s a new level. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/03/20 05:06 PM |
| 3 | Were men told that being nice would get them laid? If so, by who?In my experience, “personality will overpower looks” is not a message explicitly guys get. Girls also hear that if they are smart and nice and nurturing they will get their happily ever after even if they’re not attractive. I was the ugly duckling girl growing up- chubby, flat greasy hair, pimples from age 10, awkward clothes, glasses, braces both on my teeth and due to scoliosis. And you know what my parents told me? That young guys go after the ‘easy’ and pretty girls now, but they’ll want the… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/03/20 03:21 PM |
| 5 | "Women don't care about your struggles. They wait at the finish line and pick the winners." Do you agree with this?You’re right. Effort is not required, because most expect that you should naturally have the great figure, flawless skin, pretty hair, pretty face, be hairless etc etc. And if you dont, then you also are invisible or get the insults, if you try to change, you’re unnatural. Have you heard all the ‘she was beautiful but didn’t know it’ tropes? Where the protagonist is a 10/10 who never did anything to reach that and is completely unaware of her attractiveness,while people keep falling for her.

| 1 | If women disdain the majority of men and do not want to have a relationship or sex with them why do they care if those same men use sex bots or sex dolls if they don’t even want them?!Sorry but a blog site that refers to the people they are writing about as ‘slut feminists’ does not sound like the height of credibility. I’ll correct myself: I loosely quoted the opinions I saw at many places, as the general attitude. Some sites did a very poor reporting on the study, framing it in a way that the effect was comparable. I did not read the paper itself but I dont neccessarily agree with the conclusion- I believe the guidelines were different when the female pill came out.

If anything, what I see mentioned as an issue is that the burden of long-term contraception (which usually comes with a series of side effects) falls on the women. When the trial of some male pill was stopped, the most common talking point was that the fact that they deemed the side effects (that were similar to what women experience) too dangerous while it’s acceptable with the pill for women, is a sign of some double standard in medicine, a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/01/20 01:43 PM |
| 1 | For all the women that blame men because they were supposedly “used” and for men to understand the real reason why they blame us.Jesus fuck. Salad is relationship in this context burger is sex but it’s not the point. One person says they want a relationship, the other says they too (I guess, because otherwise they wouldn’t feel used if it turns out to be casual) but they want sex too before it’s official. Person one takes the sex and no longer wants the relationship. The point is, if I say I want X, then you rightfully assume I do want X and not Y. And if I take Y and no longer want X, it’s confusing. If you’re on a datin… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/01/20 11:33 AM |

You can be looking for NSA and relationship at the same time, but if you only mention the relationship yet still have flings you’re dishonest. A different analogy. We order food. You ask me what I want- I say I’m not very hungry, I JUST want a salad.

If you say you’re looking for a relationship, it translates to ‘I’m not interested in something casual’, therefore, you arent looking for NSA sex, if you talk to someone you consider them a potential partner. So how is the women at fault if she takes what he says at face value, and if he says he wants something serious, talks to her and hangs out with her she assumes he wants to be with her? Sure, no one is entitled to anything but words have meaning and if you lead people on you’re st… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/01/20 09:06 AM |
| 5 | Not wanting to spend a lot on the first date, doesn't indicate a low value man.The cause of discomfort is not neccessarily men, it’s the situation. I’m introverted and have mild social anxiety, and can’t fake a conversation for too long if I’m not feeling it. So I either connect with someone and we won’t shut up for hours and have a really good time, or I end up being awkward and just want to remove myself immediately. So in order to even go out and spend time with people, I’m trying to make adjustments that make me feel more comfortable and i can relax and be myself, and … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/12/19 04:15 PM |
| 2 | Q4W: Is your first impression about a guy who doesn't use social media (Facebook, Instagram, etc.) that he is a creep or that he has issues?It’s interesting because giving out social media (if you’re active on it) means that they learn a lot more personal information than a phone number would provide. But somehow it’s still more accepted, maybe because now you can also screen them? Or because people can find out your name anyway and stalk the page, so giving it voluntarily doesn’t make much difference. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/12/19 03:51 PM |
| 1 | Q4W: Is your first impression about a guy who doesn't use social media (Facebook, Instagram, etc.) that he is a creep or that he has issues?I think there is a difference between being active on these sites or not having an account at all. No presence at all does sound a bit odd, only having a few posts and occasionally checking is not weird at all. I wouldn’t neccessarily care for other SM, but where I live (Europe, central/eastern) Facebook and FB messenger is the most popular form of online communication. Even if you dont share anything and dont care to look at other people’s lives, you kind of need it. For example at university w… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/12/19 03:15 PM |
| 8 | Not wanting to spend a lot on the first date, doesn't indicate a low value man.I (22F) actually agree with this. And when the topic came up, my friends were also on the opinion that the ideal first date is coffee/tea or drinks. Its a more laid-back environment, with less interruptions, and also someone offering to spend so much while you dont know whether you like the person does sound uncomfortable, and it makes harder to back off if the other person already invested a lot. Maybe this has something to do with the fact that we’re at university where most people are on a ti… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/12/19 02:44 PM |
| 1 | Redpillers who don’t want to settle down until their 40s: Won’t the best women be married or single moms by then?Yeah, it can be interpreted that way but I think the way it was phrased is more projection. There is a big portion of people who rather stay in a dysfunctional relationship, or jump from one bad to another because they are too afraid to be single. Of course these issues won’t be solved by a few motivational quotes but it’s more about the situations when the relationship is dead or toxic, not neccessarily about the honeymoon phase wearing off or someone not being 100% perfect. But, of course some… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/19 11:39 AM |
| 3 | The reason so many women think men have out of control egosLet me put this quote here: “confidence is not ‘they will like me’, confidence is ‘I’ll be fine if they dont’”. I think there lies the difference between confident and too egoistic. A person with high ego expects everyone to like them, cater to them etc, and gets upset if they aren’t shown the admiration they want. It might seem as confident at first, but after a while they become very exhausting to be around. This ego often superficially masks deep insecurities, they demand the attention becaus… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/11/19 11:42 PM |
| 3 | A contradiction: The more I seem to think 'like a woman', the less friendzone makes sense.That’s it. It people show you who they are, and what they want, believe them. If your crush tells you they aren’t interested, or keep dating other people and not you, it’s a pretty good indication that you’re not what they are looking for. You have no obligation to stay and watch, if it’s hurting you, the best is to remove yourself from the situation. But if you stay around and keep hoping that somehow they are going to change their minds, convincing yourself that you know them better than they … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/10/19 12:42 PM |

| 2 | The hyper-focus on online dating/looks by men on reddit is because they are socially anxious , bad at flirting/game/socializing and have small social circles with mostly men.As OP pointed out, where are the attractive or average women in this group? You’re working under the assumption that every person finds the same things attractive. While there are some people who are considered attractive by many, the majority of people does not belong in this category. People come with different tastes, someone can be the ideal partner for one, and just meh for another. And even if there is an objective way to measure attractiveness, there will be people of the group who develo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/09/19 09:37 AM |
| 4 | Study finds facially unattractive adolescents lose social popularity when they act aggressively, but facially attractive ones do not lose popularity when they do itJust mentioning, if the rating was done by students who knew the participants, it can skew the data. It’s pretty hard to objectively rate someone you like/dislike, so the more popular participants could have gotten higher scores for attractiveness because more people like them, and they also get away with that behaviour due to popularity. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/09/19 12:32 PM |

I had to argue with men that just because there is someone paid to clean up after you, it doesn’t mean you can leave a huge mess behind (like piles of dirty dishes), others are the first to volunteer to clean up and are very considerate.

We can study people who are already in a program after committing DV, and it’s pretty useful to see what traits they share, what similarities or differences have, but again that’s a very limited part of the population.

| 2 | If male sexuality is predatory, do females enjoy being the prey?It seems like you think of dating as a chase, while it’s a dance. Maybe the male takes the first steps more often, but a woman who is interested in you will also step towards you, give green flags that it’s ok to come closer etc. Your post kinda implies that women being the prey, some resistance is part of the package. That may have been the case with older generations but it’s less and less common now. Most women will let the men know if they like them, or when it’s time to move things further. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/08/19 02:55 PM |

Several people tried to explain this in this thread, with examples, but you seem to ignore it. If you’re really innocent, you won’t assume others think you did something (unless they indicate their distrust earlier), and you have anything to prove/explain.

Someone hot can look quite bad if the angle/lighting sucks, while below average people can appear more attractive on a photo taken by someone who knows what they’re doing.

I recently held back from giving an innocent zero further intent compliment, and thought to myself, well isn’t this ironic.It does sound condescending, they subtly criticize the place you work at, and thus your choices. It’s like people trying to ‘flirt’ by insulting friends or significant other, or telling a girl they didn’t assume they could be pretty and intelligent at the same time; its not a compliment, it’s a half insult.

If he lives alone he would have to do 100% of the housework himself, so why does splitting chores become such a burden in a relationship? At the end of the day, he has to do less than in single times. And if gf/wife works (and why would you choose someone who doesn’t unless they are looking after children?), her income boosts his spending power too. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/06/19 09:17 PM |

| 0 | Q4ALL: why do some men on PPD claim that women cannot or do not enjoy sex?I think part of the reason is that, at especially a young age, you dont really know what it takes until you experience it. Now female orgasm is more openly talked about but at the beginning, it can be a lot of trial and error, and what works for one may not for someone else. So it’s possible that those girls couldn’t really help out because they wasn’t sure what they were supposed to feel, or how to achieve it, not because they didn’t want to. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/19 12:49 PM |

Yes, there are people (men and women, though) who dont like being around children and/or dont want to raise one. It’s a visceral feeling, and does not have much to do with societal views.

They should be.Interesting because the studies I found about this suggest that there is a connection, but different variables play a role- household income, the neighbourhood they live in, parental behavior and attention. The children who see abuse at home are more likely to engage in criminal behavior later- so no, again, marriage isn't about tingles but it's sure as hell about mutual respect and healthy boundaries, and if one of the parents fail to provide that, it hurts the child to be exposed to that.

| 4 | Why do women have such a hard time admitting thier advantages over men?Reading comprehension?? Staying home comfortably was not an option for people who weren’t rich. I dont think it was an option for poorer American women, too. They didn’t start to work outside the home because they were bored, they did because they had to. And again childcare is not where all the work stopped- work unpaid domestic work all day, living dependent on someone or earning something and making your own decisions - the latter is more appealing for a lot of people, but you do you. Also, l… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/19 06:45 AM |
| 4 | Why do women have such a hard time admitting thier advantages over men?What do you think women did before offices, sit at home all day? Maybe if they belonged to middle class or upper, they did have an easily life, but that meant their husbands also had more comfortable tasks. The majority of people who weren’t that rich worked their ass off, regardless of gender. Womens work might have been physically less demanding, but their duties didn’t stop at childcare and housekeeping, they typically cared for the livestock and do field work. After industrial revolution the… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/19 06:12 AM |
| 4 | Getting married young doesn't work anymore because women want to be "young, wild and free"There is quality strategy and quantity strategy. We can expect to live quite long, so we dont need to rush, we can focus on education etc, so adolescence become longer. There are very different expectations towards children now vs then; 100 years ago they had to be more independent, older girls wer expected to take care of younger siblings, keep house as teens, and boys were expected to do hard manual labor, or were sent to boarding schools away from the parents way before 18, which is not as co… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/03/19 01:45 PM |
| 6 | Why do some men (and more-vocally,a lot of RP men) sh*t on the looks of 30+ year old women?Especially that they forget that young girls not neccessarily want to date someone 10-20 years older than them. I understand that some do find it attractive, but most of the people I know prefer someone in the +5 age range. I personally found 20s guys who hit on my very cringey, we usually joked around that if they had to hit on highschool girls, they didn’t stand a change with someone appropriate of their age. I dont want to be mean but it often seems like wishful thinking. Some girls like olde… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/03/19 04:31 PM |
| 2 | Why do some men (and more-vocally,a lot of RP men) sh*t on the looks of 30+ year old women?Sex for humans isn’t just about reproduction. Most mammals only copulate when the female ovulates (oestrus cycle), and it has visible signs (bottom becoming red, different behaviors etc), while with us there is no obvious signs of the fertile days. If it was really just about reproduction, we wouldn’t have sex except for the few fertile days/cycle. Now the purpose of being sexually available all the time can be debated, some say it’s for bonding, others claim it’s women trying to make men involv… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/03/19 04:15 PM |
| 2 | How many men would actually be willing to be in a relationship with women who are virgins in their mid/late twenties?If you have nothing to compare it to, you definitely can’t tell. You feel if it’s good or nah, but if you’ve never experienced better, it’s easy to think that’s just how your body works. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/03/19 03:34 PM |
