0	Most women have no desire to use their bodies to soothe the egos of insecure men. In a world where nobody gets married and people simply move from one meaningless sex romp to another, it seems plausable to just elevate a small group of gorgeous men and leave the rest to loneliness and insult. But thats not the world we live in, yet women are proceeding in life as if most men don’t matter. This has created a generation of men with insecurities. So the gender that is uniquely capable of teasing their friends into an eating disorder can also fuck up men’s self worth. Congrats, n…	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/03/26 03:34 PM
1	Know any guys that have stopped paying for dates? My post isn’t a plea for dating advice. It isn’t about me. The post lays out a supply/demand dynamic in the overall dating marketplace. Don’t lie to yourself. If a nice, tall, gorgeous man wants to date you, but he can’t afford to pay right now, what will you do? Be honest. My point of the post is, I believe most women would date him anyway. So why should these guys ever bother paying for anything. They are hot.	/r/PurplePillDebate	02/03/26 03:21 PM
1	What do you value? Option 1 & 2 are a divorce lawyer‘s income stream. Option 3 goes the distance. I’d go with option 3.	/r/PurplePillDebate	01/03/26 05:41 PM
11	Why is domestic violence funny/acceptable when the man is the victim? The best advice men could have is that no one cares about them unless they're getting something from them Yep. Paying people to care is the only solution for men unless you can offer a valuable service in return to them.	/r/PurplePillDebate	26/11/23 06:04 PM
2	What percentage of men attract you? What is your opinion of the men who don't attract you? In a balanced dating marketplace, there would be no difference. The genders would discriminate equally. But women have the extreme advantage today in dating. Lower value women have an inflated male selection, and thus, women have inflated standards. So a 3/10 man has zero prospects, a 3/10 woman still has several prospects.	/r/PurplePillDebate	26/11/23 04:16 PM
4	What percentage of men attract you? What is your opinion of the men who don't attract you? The “full package” is irrelevant. Generally, a facially ugly or unusually short man will not benefit from having a great personality or lots of money. It’s been my experience that women treat unattractive man as misc background objects in the environment. (ex: If her package delivery driver is ugly, he is just the thing that makes her box appear at her door.)	/r/PurplePillDebate	26/11/23 04:03 PM
8	Why are there so many of you still struggling even though you make good money and have a successful career ? Money solves almost everything I have a close golf buddy who I’ve known for a long time. He got divorced about 3 years ago from his college sweetheart and re-rentered the dating market after a long pause. He is a short guy, but is a very positive, social person and very financially successful (net worth at around $7 million, post divorce). He has no kids and lives in a 5-bedroom home in a gated golf community with his two dogs. Dispite trying to date, he has nobody interested in him and he spend…	/r/PurplePillDebate	13/11/23 01:02 AM
7	Men’s loneliness epidemic is not women’s problem. I’m not talking about agreeing with the sexual trickery within hookup culture. Thats a separate issue. I’m talking about caring that there are people in society who don’t feel fulfilled. To find real solutions to the problems. You can’t write off an entire group of people just because you can’t relate to their struggles.	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/11/23 10:54 PM
2	Women genuinely have to do nothing to attract men. The double standard is ridiculous. Something needs to replace it though. We can’t go back to the limited options in our small friendship circles. Workplace culture has changed forever so guys aren’t ever going back to risking their jobs just to ask Jane in accounting out for drinks. Large organized social groups are ideal in my opinion but even those are starting to get regulated against date seekers.	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/11/23 10:45 PM
3	Women genuinely have to do nothing to attract men. The double standard is ridiculous. And what’s worse is she’ll keep that app in her back pocket. If the guy sneezes wrong, he gets replaced with her next choice. Fuck that. And women wonder why guys don’t get emotionally involved. It’s like having a job where the manager is always intervewing new candidates to replace you. No reason to put much thought into the job, just collect the check.	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/11/23 10:28 PM
7	Men’s loneliness epidemic is not women’s problem. Repeat after me: WE NEED MEN. Stop pretending that women aren’t affected by men’s loneliness. Just stop it. For every man that is alone there is a woman that is alone (or is at least not experiencing monogamy.) If all the men who aren’t finding fulfillment in life were to suddenly stop participating in maintaining a healthy community, the shit would hit the fan. Women can’t sit back and pretend that happy men aren’t a huge part of why they live with modern conveniences today. Piss on men long en…	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/11/23 10:15 PM
2	Men’s loneliness epidemic is not women’s problem. Agreed	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/11/23 10:02 PM
5	Women genuinely have to do nothing to attract men. The double standard is ridiculous. The “paradox of choice“ theory is another factor. Research has shown that when people are offered too many choices they become paralyzed with indecision. When people were given 24 choices, only 3% actually made a decision. But when scaled back to only 6 choices, then 30% made a decision. Online dating offers thousands of choices.	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/11/23 09:00 PM
40	Women genuinely have to do nothing to attract men. The double standard is ridiculous. This is the world that the dating apps have created. For the most part, the US still has a gender ratio of about 50:50 but your wouldn’t know that by looking at the online dating marketplace. You would think that men outnumber women by a ratio of 3 to 1 in the US. Men need to walk away from online dating. It’s the only solution.	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/11/23 07:15 PM
73	current dating climate in 2023 Slowly learning to accept living life solo long term and forgetting about some life goals. Very few options for meeting women today that is considered “acceptable.” Work (🚫 - get fired ) Dating apps (🚫 top 10% men only ), Random public spaces (🚫 super risky if she doesn’t find you instantly attractive ) Bars (🚫 most women want to be left alone to be with their friends ) Groups (🚫 meetup organizers are increasingly making rules against flirting with other members irl or using the meetup app.) Thr…	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/11/23 03:45 AM
29	If you've ever called a man an incel, you can't really claim there's nothing wrong with being a male virgin The same thing happens in political discussion. Tired of crime in cities? FOUND THE TRUMPER! Believe in abortion rights? FOUND THE WOKE LEFTIST. Think women are making bad choices in men? FOUND THE INCEL. We should be talking about big problems but we can’t anymore.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/11/23 10:57 PM
23	If you've ever called a man an incel, you can't really claim there's nothing wrong with being a male virgin You don’t have to be a virgin to be called an incel. You just have to accuse women of choosing men poorly. Being labelled an incel shuts down the conversation immediately. If you don’t challange the status quo and nod your head like a good boy, you can avoid being labelled, but then the dating marketplace problems don’t actually get fixed because nobody is being brutally honest about what is happening.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/11/23 10:40 PM
–	Is it unfair that hinge has a height preference but doesn’t have a weight/body type preference? Nope. 4 months, zero dates. It’s not that I’m ugly. If I use online speed dating, about 75% of women will match with me after 2 minutes of conversation but they’ve all been in different cities so we just chat for a while then thats it. Also, none of them knew my height in advance.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/11/23 10:51 PM
–	Is it unfair that hinge has a height preference but doesn’t have a weight/body type preference? I have a bunch of golf buddies who share dating stories. One of the guys is 52 and goes on 50+ singles wine nights. He told us that those 50s women are all waiting for an NFL player to drive up to their door with flowers and a limo. They’re all full of themselves and unapproachable just like they were in their twenties.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/11/23 07:52 PM
–	Is it unfair that hinge has a height preference but doesn’t have a weight/body type preference? I’m on a dating app right now and it’s fascinating to watch the system’s tactics. If I stop validating women (showing interest) for 7 days, the system will generate a woman who is interested in me. She will not respond of course, but then they will offer discounts for membership. If I pay, I stop receiving any “matches” from women until it expires. This is designed to keep me perpetually single, paying and validating women.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/11/23 07:03 PM

–	Is it unfair that hinge has a height preference but doesn’t have a weight/body type preference? I hope men wise up soon. The only group keeping their businesses afloat are the average looking, employed men that nobody wants.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/11/23 06:52 PM
–	Is it unfair that hinge has a height preference but doesn’t have a weight/body type preference? Well, a man’s height is now a woman’s main source of self esteem. If she can’t land a 6’0” guy she doesn’t feel attractive. It didn’t used to be like that years ago. Women looked for good character in men first.	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/11/23 06:45 PM
12	What would happen if OF, all dating websites, and all social media sites suddenly disappeared The lives changed the most? Attractive men. Instead of constantly getting notifications from dozens of women from the apps they would have to go back out into the bars again and approach, show personality, spend money. Hard times. Women would have to settle for choosing between ten men irl instead of one thousand men on the apps. Maybe have to lower standards? I don’t know. Hard to undo standards once they’ve been raised.	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/09/23 02:31 AM
6	The different types of Women How many women have you actually date in the last few years?	/r/PurplePillDebate	08/09/23 02:03 AM
5	I hear others say that relationships where the women pursued or initiated are set to fail, but why do so many marriages which are often initiated by men fail? does which gender initiate really determine the outcome then? You are relying on the judgement of a complete stranger to act with common sense though. Simply asking her to have coffee is innocent to most people, but it only takes one crazy woman to ruin your life. Before #metoo, the average person would question the authenticity of her accusations. But today? All women are to be believed. He must have said something perverted to her, so he needs to be punished.	/r/PurplePillDebate	07/09/23 07:00 PM
7	I hear others say that relationships where the women pursued or initiated are set to fail, but why do so many marriages which are often initiated by men fail? does which gender initiate really determine the outcome then? However it negates the act that today many men do not even bother to approach out of fear of being called a creep, anxiety, etc.. I do not think society is doing men favors by telling them they're inherently bad and must walk on eggshells with women. It started with #metoo. I saw the change happen almost instantly. Don’t get me wrong, a lot of good came from this movement but the side effect from it was that “good“ men have become very cautious with approaching women in public. Not the men who h…	/r/PurplePillDebate	07/09/23 06:18 PM
24	CMV : I believe as a man you have two options. Accept and prepare for a life alone or go all in on raising your SMV most women are not attracted to most men This will sound weird but I actually get a lot of relief from this mindset. I know I’m not alone in this dateless environment, and many like me are trying to figure out whats next. You go to the gym, you socialize in public spaces, you learn great social skills, but its not enough. Genetics just reign supreme over women’s selection process. You are either born with great looks and stature or you aren’t. its just going to be sadness and frustration for t…	/r/PurplePillDebate	06/09/23 04:35 PM
32	There are good reasons why birthrates are falling Women don’t pick men for their ability to raise kids, they pick men for their genetics. It is stated over and over on this sub. Women are only attracted to certain types of men. Because…biology. If women don’t prioritize dating men with good character and stability, you create a society of single moms.	/r/PurplePillDebate	06/09/23 01:22 PM
3	This is very anecdotal, but as a man, i miss the attention, do others also? sometimes i do flirt with girls just to get some positive attention But aren’t 99% of women online (dating apps, instagram, etc, etc,), mostly there to get “positive attention.” Imagine getting 1 million likes just brushing your teeth in a low cut shirt on youtube. That’s gotta be an addictive mega shot of validation.	/r/PurplePillDebate	04/09/23 10:24 PM
1	Escorts and strip club should be normalized for people who have no other options What the drug industry needs to work on is a pill that makes men not want women or affection at all. SSRIs are very close so I know it could be done and pharma would make billions. Attractive men won’t buy it because there is no reason to buy it, so no worries there. Problem solved.	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/09/23 05:54 PM
6	Escorts and strip club should be normalized for people who have no other options Countries that have tried legalizing prostitution have seen an increase in trafficking. Legalizing is pointless without licensing. Prostitutes would need to be properly vetted, tested and licensed for it to remove trafficking, abuse, etc. good chance men who were struggling to date (but not hopeless) would be more likely to stop trying Visit a dating sub sometime.

6	Do you think there is a large trend of women cohabiting with the same men? My theory: Young women are with older men (30s). They make more money. Slightly older women (30s) are dating even older guys (40s) Single Women over 50? They join wine clubs.	/r/PurplePillDebate	31/08/23 06:13 AM
-3	Women who get ugly and fat & men who start being lazy and stingy cannot maintain the relationship , keeping yourself desired is a must This is particularly brutal if the couple is not look-matched in the first place. Women have to work extra hard with their appearance (and other efforts) in order to keep a man who is objectively better looking than she deserves.	/r/PurplePillDebate	22/07/23 08:46 PM

–	Everyone has an unconscious bias to believe their own standards are flexible while others are rigid but she's probably not going to rule out any short kings if their personality clicks that short guys have no chance with her and she's likely to laugh you off if you approach The problem is that 50% of the way we meet today is online. The dating filters she sets do the vetting. There is no chance to show your personality because the system already rejected your profile. That’s rigid.	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/07/23 01:01 PM
–	Could u in the 80s as a Man basically "just exist" and you were basically guaranteed that u will end up with a Wife + Family? Was it that easy? If robotics doesn’t move along quickly, a lot of people in their 30s and 40s are going to suffer from a lack of services and resources as they age. Not enough working class people to provide the basics for a large older population.	/r/PurplePillDebate	18/07/23 12:54 PM

–	Do you think the lonely men online actually just want sex? I think the women here would be surprised just how many average looking guys exist here that have zero love life. They want to paint every guy on the subs as a bottom 5% undatable loser. Nope. Over 60% of 20-something men are single right now. Of course most of us want more than sex. Its obvious but it doesn’t fit the “all men evil thirsty bad” narrative. Escorts are last resort for the vast majority of guys unless they have a fetish or can’t stand their wives altogether.	/r/PurplePillDebate	14/07/23 11:35 PM
98	Men can't cold approach, but they can't ask out their female friends either. What options are we left with? Bars? No. Many women are married in bars or just out to enjoy a girls night. General Public? No. Women find this creepy if you aren’t really attractive. Friends? No. Friendzoning is real. Work? Absolutely not. Social Clubs? Sometimes. Though some have rules against flirting. OLD? Meh. You can go online and hope that your profile gets noticed in a sea of other men, some of which are on there cheating or creating a collection of fwbs for themselves. Friends of Friends?

–	CMV: Maine legalizing the selling of sex, but criminalizing the buying of it is another example of institutionalized misandry. Yea, I could envision the licensing process funding an investigations unit for both support for the sex workers and to track down abusers. There is a solution to this. I just don’t think married women (voters) are going to allow the legitimization of this line of work. They simply don’t want their husbands to have a place to buy sex legally.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/07/23 02:33 AM
–	CMV: Maine legalizing the selling of sex, but criminalizing the buying of it is another example of institutionalized misandry. The only way to solve this problem is FULL decriminalization with state licensing. Each prostitute would need to apply for a license yearly and undergo a series of tests to determine if the woman is physically healthy, and acting independently. If you are caught without a license, or with a unlicensed prostitute you are charged with a crime.	/r/PurplePillDebate	09/07/23 02:02 AM
1	Girls aren't lying about their preferences, they just don't know guys can improve Its obvious that women need attraction, what I’m talking about here are stating physical attributes widely considered to be highly attractive qualities. “I need a guy who is 6’3” or have “six-pack abs.” She risks looking shallow in the same way men risk looking shallow listing off women’s body parts.	/r/PurplePillDebate	05/07/23 03:12 AM
35	Girls aren't lying about their preferences, they just don't know guys can improve Slightly different spin: It took me a while to interpret what women meant when they said they were attracted to loyalty, kindness, charisma, maturity, sense of humor, and confidence. What they actual mean is, they want these traits above and beyond the physical attraction. There is no replacement for physical attraction, so if you are a 6/10 guy, being loyal and mature is fairly meaningless to women who believe their looks-match is 7/10 and above. Women omit the attraction requirement because so…	/r/PurplePillDebate	04/07/23 03:03 PM

Because “not all women…” I’m not here to say that all short men are doomed to die alone. I’m here to say that short men are disproportionately excluded from the dating pool based on their height alone. Here’s just a basic 538 study on the height of men in relationships. It shows that only 8% of relationships in the UK contain men who are less than 5cm taller than his partner. Given that demographically there are roughly the same number of short women as their are men, only 8% is extraordinary. T…	/r/PurplePillDebate	30/06/23 10:00 PM

The actual statistics on height and dating show otherwise. Just because a problem doesn’t exist in your world doesn’t mean the problem doesn’t exist at all.
