| 0 | There’s a relationship drought for dating age people but half of us are in denial about it and don’t think there’s a problemRobots and AI will pick up the slack. If we survived the plague, we will survive a bit of collapse (hell maybe this will deflate the housing market). This is a natural way to reset the world economy | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/12/24 08:43 AM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Like Shinji in EoE. I can respect that POV. As long as y'all ain't complaining about the ladies being the problem because they don't like you, no harm no foul. MGTOW is a valid choice, but let's not pretend people are out to harm you. Most people, like yourself, have chronic main character syndrome, esp in western countries. They really ain't worried about you, esp if you're lower class and have nothing to offer them. The reality is life is harsh and there are bigger more pressing matters on peo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/08/24 05:35 AM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Sounds like a failure. Someone should have taught this to you as relationships are important part of life. How did they expect you to learn this stuff? If they aren't helping you with finding a mate, least they could have done is teach you how to talk to women | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/08/24 05:30 AM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Do you know your neighbors? Have you ever said hi to them? My problem with this lot who blame woman's nature for their issues is that they don't even try or are too scared to do so. Life has much bigger tougher problems waiting ahead if you can't figure that part out. If you try, then you can make IRL friends or at the very least build a network of reliable acquaintances you will need in harsh times, which will help in your dating life as a byproduct | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/24 11:34 AM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.It's in response to your comment. *you're implying that men need a woman and child in order to provide for themselves and function as an adult. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/24 07:17 AM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Why should a woman reproduce with a fat broke loser who hyper obsessed about dating woes instead of fixing his issues? Like what is the value prop here? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/24 05:59 AM |
| 2 | Just treat women as regular people who have sex and make babiesI used to think this but then I came around to see that really feminism is just a filter for the weaker men who can't hold up. It's like natural selection, let the best man win. The guys who are not socially calibrated enough to have success in this environment are to be rooted out. We want to maximize input into the system and saying that women should not be allowed to work and contribute has negative utility to the progress of mankind. And the ways to get a woman in relationship are so simple.… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/24 05:57 AM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.In someways the beta is the most degenerate way to live. It's anti-social and weak position to be in. Can't even defend himself, quick to call the police etc Those men have proven they will do whatever it takes beyond just playing 9-5 game. In some ways they are more masculine in that they ain't scared of anything. Imagine telling these types about MeToo and that they should stop approaching women because of it. They will rightly call you a cornball. They also tend to hang out in pacts and demon… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/24 05:51 AM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.But if you don't solve things like where you're gonna live or how you can provide a home for said child, then it don't matter. There are some real realities to raising children that go beyond that. There are no guy with good jobs and homes and cars and social skills and health that struggle with women. Go fix those issue first before blaming women's standards | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/24 05:42 AM |

Work on getting in a relationship first and learning to relate to women as people who you're in a relationship with as opposed to this mysterious object you (not "you" literally) need to unlock for sex. The guys who can't relate to women socially IDK what to say to them. Maybe try befriending a female coworker, or find a pen pal to confide in IDK.

| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Those who don't want to kids or a family that badly enough to do what needs to be done to make for a stable, safe home for raising shouldn't be forced to. It's an easier life. Just remember the problem isn't the women. Esp in 2024. Honestly they just need your sperm at the end of the day given how many high earning professional women there are. We don't need everyone to reproduce. Just those who are mentally and physically healthy enough for the responsibility. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 06:17 PM |

| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.What is the point of complaining? If you're expecting women to suddenly change their strategy to marry one y'all out of pity is also pretty ridiculous. My point is that the concern is missing the real problem why women don't want y'all. You're not real men. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 05:29 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Bet go find her. There are many many desperate single women waiting for a man to approach her and court her like a man. The red pill theorizing ain't helping. We need more men in the real world doing real shit. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 05:06 PM |
| 2 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.So you have no real problems then in dating as it stands. You've solved your own problem. Reproduce and be done with it. Height can be compensated for dont act like it's the end all be all. Stop it there are plenty of tall dudes who are total dweebs who struggle with dating. I know guys who are my height 5'10" who complain no woman wants them because they are too short. If a woman can look up to you that's enough brotha. Y'all over thinking this stuff. Like to cringe nerd levels. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 05:03 PM |
| -1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.The energy you need to be attractive lies in not being attached to approval of women. You need to be focused on real problems that involve survival of the family. Basically if you're self improving only so that women find you attractive, does that self improvement end the minute you enter relationship? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:55 PM |

He's average height, mother makes most of the money but the dude is a leader and a man first. He never needed any of this Red Pill theory to find a woman to date. Come the F on. Most these guys are to scared to approach a woman. A woman who they feel are inferiors by the way. Make it make sense. What is she gonna do to you? And if you can't get over this then God help us if we as… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:51 PM |
| 0 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.You ever approached a woman before? Do you have any friends? What exactly do you have to offer a woman. Your height is very low on the list. Dating apps are a curated and manipulated version of the world. Id expect RPers to be more skeptical of for-protic tech companies. Your mom married your dad. Why don't you ask him for advice? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:47 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.My point I guess was that women like men who are focused on solving real problems. Not guys who over obsess about intersexual dynamics when they are unemployed or fat or porn addicts. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:44 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Kill the ego. That's her goal as well. The goal is to pass on your genes and teach your son/daughter how to fix the next generation, otherwise your ideas will die with you. You can learn eroticism and other things to keep it fresh. But I mean men also get tired of fucking the same woman eventually. There are ways to make sure it stays interesting but it requires work. But if you'd rather jerk it more power to you brotha 🫡.

| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.I agree. It's a tough world out there. How will you make sure your family has what they need to sustain a family? Those are the problems you need to do us on first, not why women only want Chad. That's small fry shit This is why some women love criminals in the inner city. These guys will do whatever it takes to make sure their kids eat. Or at least that is the perception. It's got its own flaws (death, jail etc).

This shit is trivial AF. If you're struggling I guarantee your problem is you haven't proved you have enough social finesse to prove you are a competent part of a community. It's not as hard as you're trying to make it seem. All of this is a coping strategy to prevent you from going out and approaching. Which is downstream of a lack of courage, which is why you don't deserve to be a father… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:34 PM |
| -7 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Ok so it's not finances. Then it's social skills or hygiene or physical health. *My point is this shit ain't rocket science. It's like the basics you should have learned from your father | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:24 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Maybe. See it from the woman's perspective: What would you do if all men did was throw their sexual interest at you regardless of how pretty you are? It's not a privilege really. For some people yes they are screwed, just like that kid stuck in the sweatshop making your clothes is probably stuck in that life forever. But in first world country, if you are able bodied and have average intelligence (which most RP guys will assume they have since they have gleaned "the Truth of reality") then yes y… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:23 PM |

I'd assume red pillers would be more skeptical of media controlled by corporations. It seems the skepticism only goes so far until it confirms your own bias. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:17 PM |
| 0 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Life is tough. See it from a woman's perspective. She will have to carry your child for 9 months, and raise them for 18+. You better damn well be a good match and provider. This idea that you shouldn't have to is from the movies. Real life is a bit harsher. Dating is for adults. Leave all the kid stuff behind *To add the dehumanizing goes both ways. You are not entitled to her affection just because you are nice to her. You are entitled to a respectful rejection in order for us to live in peace.… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:13 PM |
| 0 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.The point is if you are struggling that badly in dating, maybe there are other more pressing issues you might want to put your energy into, like how are you preparing for the incoming recession etc. Like are you able to provide a safe place for a woman to bring children into? Many guys here have no skills or are not even working theorizing about women's behavior. That overemphasis is also part of their problem. They need to live life and build up a life people would like to join. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:09 PM |
| 0 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.I mean thats the solution. I mean unless you're in a wheel chair or for some reason disabled maybe I can see it. I live in a community with many very short guys who work in the fields or in construction. They still all got married. They honestly would find a lot of this internet stuff kinda funny. You can't be that afraid of rejection and call yourself a man. Life is much tougher than that.

| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.If no woman wants you, it's because they have better options. It's that simple. They don't owe you a relationship and frankly there are more important things than appeasing the desires of men who frankly aren't trying that hard. A lot of these guys are fat, broke, social awkward, no friends. All of this is way more important to fix and will also fix your dating life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 04:00 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Yeah I'll probably add an edit to note this. My main point was that there are probably other more pressing issues related to your inability to date. Like physical and mental health, or finances or maturity. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:57 PM |
| -1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Substitute that list for personal issues: finances health community (friends and family) If all those are in good standing then we can worry about why women still don't want to risk pregnancy or STD or any other slew of relationships issues with you (I'm speaking in general not you specifically). A lot of guys just want women to change seems to be the flavor of these posts when really many of these guys don't even have good relationships with people in their community or family, or are in no pos… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:55 PM |
| -3 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.My main point was focus on higher goals in your life. Like how you're gonna prepare for this recession so that you can provide a home for a woman you're gonna date. A lot of guys seem to have their entire self esteem wrapped in the approval of a human who shits and bleeds. It's an overemphasis with the guys who struggle I've noticed. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:51 PM |
| 0 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.My main point is there are most likely more pressing issues in their personal lives to fix before they can become attractive. Many of them hyper obsess on theory and lack practical application. My guess is they can afford to do this because they don't provide for themselves or they have some mental blockage keeping them from socializing. My point is they need to de-emphasize why women want Chad instead of themselves. In that pursuit of higher goals they will become more attractive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:46 PM |
| 1 | If love, relationships, companionship, attention and affection of women isnt a reward for men's good behavior, then how come the deprivation of all of those things is some sort of punishment for morally broken behavior?What do you mean by better? You mean more options of crazy women who fawn over serial killers? Let them do them. We live in a free world. Good luck convincing people to surrender their freedoms to confirm to your worldview | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:43 PM |
| 3 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Sure. Substitute that list then. I promise you most of those problems are still problems for the RP/black pill guy, but their focus is somehow still on women's behavior | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:41 PM |
| -3 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.TikTok isn't real life. Social media is manufactured. Engagement farming etc. People are not like this in general. Have you ever tried meeting people outside of apps? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:39 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Sure. I picked those examples pretty quick. Some better examples are how are your finances? what are your life goals? any addictions you can focus on first (sex, gambling, porn, gaming) how's your relationship with friends and extended family (who could help do you have any friends? hows your health (mental and physical) If all of those are good then I'd be shocked that you can't find a date if you're actually trying to meet people. That's why I said it's not a real problem because it solves its… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:38 PM |
| 0 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.That is if that's all you bring to the table. You can be a jack of all trades and still learn how to keep a relationship sexually interesting (Ester Perel has some good insights on how to do this in long term relationships). Or you can be that provider type with multiple girlfriends. The world is your oyster. Many ways to win. Pick one. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:33 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Exactly it's like their whole world is consumed by this stuff. And this obsession they don't realize is actually making them less attractive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:30 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.If you see it as therapeutic sure. But some posts are more aimed at blaming the issue on women, when really these men need to take charge of their own lives and make a life a woman would want to join you in to build a family. That's my major point. It's sad but dwelling on it ain't gonna fix it. The journey is long but it starts with the first step. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:29 PM |

| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.My point is their inability to date and mate is downstream of more pressing issue: -hygiene -finances -social skills -maturity etc I guess I was trying to say "get over yourself. Theorizing about why women are the way they are ain't helping you". I literally saw a post here that went something along the lines of "women are punishing me by rejecting me" or some other diatribe. To me there are other more pressing matters in their life that they should address first (therapy, meditation etc). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:25 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.I agree. My main point was the source of the problem isn't really women's behavior (generally there are exceptions of course). The problem is they haven't introspected enough on why they are struggling in dating. Usually it's a slew of other more important factors. I might have not worded it correctly but that was my main point. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:21 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.You can, its entertaining, but the solution is to go out there and learn to socialize. A lot of the posts are of people who don't even try to go outside. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:01 PM |
| -1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.What about you makes you a catch? Or worthy of someone's affection? Focus on contributing to society and maybe people will value you. Learn some social skills, find a community and your dating woes will disappear. That's my experience at least. Theorizing about why women don't want you is divorced from the reality of actually going out and learning to socialize and be a functional contributor to society. You can't shame women into desiring you. And why would you want to? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 03:00 PM |
| 1 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.The way some of these posts sound you'd think it is. I read a recent post where the guy said "women rejecting me is immoral". Just mind boggling | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 02:57 PM |
| -14 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Dating isn't a real problem. It's more of a maturity and bravery problem for this demographic, esp incels. A lot of them don't socialize and they theorize about why women don't swipe on their profile pics. That was my main point | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 02:56 PM |
| 4 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.Many of the issues are related to many men not even trying. They are too busy theorizing about what will go wrong, when really the consequences of approaching a woman is so small in the grand scheme of things. Most of the problem is how much emphasis they put on women | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 02:50 PM |
| -4 | If women are your biggest problem, you don't have enough real problems.The point is that the solution to their problems is to see this stuff as small fry stuff, grow up and just approach the woman. These problems disappear once you realize they aren't that big a deal and that women are just people at the end of the day. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 02:48 PM |

| 1 | If love, relationships, companionship, attention and affection of women isnt a reward for men's good behavior, then how come the deprivation of all of those things is some sort of punishment for morally broken behavior?Morality is relative. Most people are secular in the parts of the world where any of this is a relevant issue. Most people don't think it's immoral to reject you. Come on how old are you brotha. Ain't no way you really think they are punishing you because they don't want to reproduce with you? Given the risks and long term cost of child birth it is rational to pick the best person. Logically that make sense. Actually if you're so standfast on everyone acting rationally, why are you expecting peo… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 12:56 PM |
| 11 | Women need to accept that they have sexual power.BASED AF. I know a little something about this being a former athlete. The way people treat you like an object because you can run fast and jump high is quite enlightening. I think some of these people (probably all of them) are the most mentally ill, hence why they come online to these spaces. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 11:20 AM |
| 4 | Women need to accept that they have sexual power.Women are objects of sexual desire. It's like being a celebrity. Everyone wants something from you. That can be incredibly dangerous and powerful. It's something you envy but if you were a woman you would understand. Just like vice versa. You need to step out of your own mind and try to understand the other side of the equation. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/24 11:16 AM |

That actually makes more sense if that's true. I have no idea what that's like so I sympathize with your struggle I didn't notice that part earlier. People aren't that calculated consciously. Most people can't remember to pay their credit card bills, let alone keep track of manipulating people with directed goals. Most people live aimless lives.

| 3 | Just treat women as regular people who have sex and make babiesWhy do you feel you are performing? If all you want from a woman is sex, then just go pay for it. Honestly this is very anti-social way at looking at your fellow human being. No society can exist with that type of mindset | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/24 04:18 PM |
| 7 | Just treat women as regular people who have sex and make babiesIt's surprising how hard it is for people to understand this. I chalk it up to men not being raised by real men. Too many absentee boomer parents raised boys who never grew up. This used to be basic common courtesy and etiquette back in the day. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/24 04:15 PM |
| 5 | Just treat women as regular people who have sex and make babiesThe problem is overthinking the situation. In a world with much bigger problems, a woman implicitly has no time to waste procreating with a coward. 9 months and 18 years is a large commitment so it's no wonder "nice guy" is very distasteful. These should have been trained out of you by a father figure but many boys didn't grow up properly hence they are stuck in as nice guys with no spine. Grow up, go for what you want. Don't apologize. It's that simple. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/24 04:11 PM |

They are just as intelligent (and on average are probably more intelligent) as most men. They don't rebel against women's lib because it isn't advantageous to do so.

It's why women fawn over and have more respect for the gangster and rebels. They don't tolerate bullshit the same way domesticated men do. Women's lib was important so far that you don't want women feeling forced to marry a man they have no feelings or respect for.

If she will lie to me as a friend, she would lie to me in a more traditional relationship. Maybe I'm different I don't just treat people differently because I took them on a few dates. Friendship actually means something | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 04:30 PM |
| 1 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenWould you "betray" your friend? Friendship is a very strong bond. It's not as fickle as you are describing it. I'm not talking about situationships where the man is just leaving it up in "what are we" world | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 04:28 PM |
| 2 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenWhat kind of a friend doesn't care for the needs of your partner? I'm talking about FRIENDS with benefits not the less ethical situationship. Women get into FWB when the sex is good. Id argue the best sex is from the open/FWB crowd. The traditional marriage crowd is full of dead bedrooms, cheating, resentment etc. You really telling me the best sex is with the guy who knows you won't leave? Make that make sense. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 04:26 PM |

| 2 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenAnd it's def more egalitarian. She's my friend. We split everything. We keep our places exactly how we like them. And what chores require two people to maintain an apartment? Am I missing something? Robots vacuums, washers and dryers, dishwashers, hell I even have an electric tub scrubber so that chore is easy too.

| 1 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenThey can but why would they want to, esp the woman?

| 2 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenFair enough family is a good reason to get married.

I think that growth can also lead you to realize those types of relationships where you're constantly changing yourself at the whims of your partner's own idiosyncrasies is it's own hell, and thus you decide to leave and find people/situations you don't have compromise for.

| 1 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenFriendship is a relationship. Why do people have this weird idea that once you start dating something magical happens that can't happen with friendship? Think about it. you meet someone on an app or through mutuals IRL and somehow this person will become more important than friends you've known for years? Your friends will be there when the relationship ends to pick up the pieces. Friendships last waaaay longer than most romantic relationships. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 03:48 PM |
| 1 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenSituationship is basically the guy leading on the woman. He's not her friend at all and doesn't care about her well being. Basically it's leading someone on or not defining the relationship, esp when the lady (usually) is wanting to know "what are we". FWB is friends first. You actually care about your friend and you don't lead them on. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 03:44 PM |

| 2 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenI can concède on that point. My FWB was starting to get feelings but she was pretty good at keeping it in check, also we were too busy with our careers for us to see each other enough for it to be a problem.

It just seems like people behave better when it's just dates, sex, and friendship. It's like when it gets to LTR stage the script shifts and all of sudden you got chore play and dead bedrooms after 15 years. Meanwhile all the FWBs I've seen that go on for years seem pretty stable. No one has to change careers when the other moves. Basically no compromise. Where is the negative? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 12:33 PM |

| 1 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenWhen you're friends with someone who cares about your pleasure as well, it's no just mechanical.

| 1 | FWB is the best relationship for both modern men and womenI agree the sleeping around gets old. But I meant friends with benefits with an emphasis on "Friends".

Also the amount of single women who are unmarried really hammer this point home with the assumption that women want marriage and kids | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 05:04 AM |
| 3 | Why its important for men to have female friendsThat "tension" is the fuel for affairs. That "friend" you can't have but you're attracted to, I've seen relationships ruined by that coworker who is "just a friend". That's not to say it's not possible to fight against biological urges, but it's not a practical strategy for most people. In theory it sounds awesome and it's usually fine for a few months. Hell ive seen guys wait YEARS for a shot at that girl friend. I don't see many examples where it works outside of a group dynamic | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 04:59 AM |

| 2 | Acts of Chivalry like paying for the date are from a bygone era and aren’t relevantThis is very true. The chivalry is a front for "nice guys". It's weak and pathetic. I had my nice guy phase until I realized deep down it was just weakness...then I entered a player phase and was surprised to find women will go out of their way to pay for dates esp after the sexual phase begins and the hormones get all fired up. I wish guys would kill the nice guy act and just be real with women. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 04:43 AM |
| 0 | Acts of Chivalry like paying for the date are from a bygone era and aren’t relevantSomeone read Nietzsche. Very grounded and practical. My only question is where is the "love" in any of that? Seems very utilitarian. That's why I argue FWB is a better dynamic. More honest than that pretend "I love you" non-sense they say at the altar | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 04:35 AM |
| 1 | Acts of Chivalry like paying for the date are from a bygone era and aren’t relevantYou waited 45 mins? As a reformed playboy, I will tell you that's manipulative behavior on his part. Not in the evil sense, but in the sense that it's effective. I've definitely used these tactics to bed many women in the past. And Id reach back out just for sex but I'd coat it in the language of someone who wants to "reconnect". If you waited 45 mins I can already tell dude knew exactly what to say to keep you there. This is why FWB works better. It's more honest and both parties actually treat… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 04:32 AM |
| 1 | Acts of Chivalry like paying for the date are from a bygone era and aren’t relevantI've basically come the conclusion both men and women would benefit from getting rid of gender completely. It's all very antiquated. Marriage being the last bastion. FWB is the more reasonable relationship for adults. I have friends who I've known for 20+ years and I'm not about to marry them, but for some reason we normalized marrying people we know for maybe a few years. It makes no sense at all. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/24 04:19 AM |
| 3 | What do people who date/marry out of their league do?Yeah those friends are optimizing for the dopamine hit of the brief orgasm they might have with a "Baddie" who will probably be annoying AF. Nothing wrong with it but it gets boring to detrimental pretty quickly. Don't get me wrong life is slightly more free as a perpetual bachelor but you're then wasting time you could have spent raising kids. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/04/24 09:54 AM |
| 4 | What do people who date/marry out of their league do?Social skills abstracts almost all of this strategy away. People like being around sociable people. A better way to reframe it is think of it from utility standpoint. A good looking loner is useless. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/04/24 07:40 AM |
| 17 | What does PPD make of this "soft guy era"? Drizzle DrizzleIt's just comedy. Social media has replaced the traditional entertainment where we all sit down and watch the corporate approved comedians/entertainers. Don't overthink it. I've seen this with self-proclained MGTOWs hoping to see women change. News flash...they won't | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/04/24 04:41 AM |
| 1 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.Yeah in those cases those women are a bit immature. Id say to those women they need to make peace with their choices and think ahead of time moving forward. I used to enjoy laughing at women who acted like that, but the more I thought about it, the more I have compassion for them. We are all a victim of the culture we grew up in. As much as the beta-nerd with no game is a result of how he grew up, so is the entitled feminist who comes to an epiphany in their mid 30s. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/04/24 04:34 AM |
| 1 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.It is a cynical take on human nature. Their solution is to become the 5% which is basically conceding defeat to most men. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/04/24 01:34 AM |
| 2 | Is the real threat to women in the dating market the trauma dumping AI?And the same goes for women. Everyone wins! Why is it so tempting for this sub to always try to assume AI is gonna save just the male loners? Women LOVE talking. Who is gonna benefit from this more? In this "competition" it's gonna be the ladies sorry to break it to you. Esp with this crowd who are terrified of approaching women or are just bad at listening, an AI is gonna replace y'all so quick. Not to mention AI generated Literotica. So she doesn't even need to put up with mediocre sex skills … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 10:22 AM |
| 1 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.This. People don't play the game and wonder why they get no results. Or they didn't even really try that hard | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 10:17 AM |
| 1 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.Their fault for not being attracted to their partners? When they "settle" that is also a crime right? So what would you have them do? Brainwash themselves into being attracted to someone they aren't attracted to? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 10:16 AM |
| 1 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.I think there is some truth to that statement. I think our social media culture creates envy and many people are always looking for better and do the comparison thing. I've only seen this not happen with marriages tied to religion or very strong communities. In many secular marriages it's just too easy to feel like better is right around the corner after the honeymoon phase runs out. People change and most people arent well versed in psychology to check their own impulses. Hence all the cheating… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 10:14 AM |
| 0 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.That is the goal. The diamond in the rough for you. The one that people scratch their heads but you see as a catch. A worthy goal to strive for. Not easy but easy isn't fun. I think in this sub people make sexual relationships and coupling some sort of necessity, hence all the entitlement and anger that it's hard to find a partner. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 10:11 AM |
| 0 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.I might push back. I think many people experience a nagging wife or a husband that annoys them. And dead bedrooms are fairly common phenomenon. Esp after you have kids. Attraction does wane and eyes wander. So it's not hard to believe that many marriages suffer, esp in western secular culture where religion isn't there to help force people to work it out. Cheating and divorce rates are at the highest levels we've ever seen. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 10:09 AM |
| 1 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.This. I don't know why men still get confused on this point. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 10:05 AM |
| -1 | It can be liberating to realize that there are both men and women who are losers in this game.It's no one's fault. That's the problem with this community. A lot of y'all assume if you were born female you'd happily settle, when odds are that you would act like all the women you seem to have anger towards. If your female siblings and family members act the way you claim, then you would be just like them. So trying to now blame this on women like it's something they can choose is a silly position to take. And hypocritical | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/04/24 10:03 AM |
