| – | Young men mating is a modern constructNeed higher wages and wealth creation opportunity for folks lower down the chain (top 20% instead of top 1%) — there are ways to change the social norms, but not easy Burden of childcare will always fall primarily on women, need social reward to balance it out | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 06:15 AM |
| – | Young men mating is a modern constructYoung women and young men seem to do whatever is expected of them. I think it wouldn’t hurt to reintroduce the social expectation that one marry and have kids | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 06:03 AM |
| – | Young men mating is a modern constructNot sure what the point is | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 04:00 AM |
| – | Young men mating is a modern constructBecause they rebel against the government / create a low trust society that doesn’t cohere | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 03:56 AM |
| – | Young men mating is a modern constructLike normal mono marriage. It’s the right way to do it. Bad things happen in the polygamous places. Not stable | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 03:53 AM |
| – | Young men mating is a modern constructI think pair marriage is a highly successful social organization paradigm. Excess young males are bad news. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/07/26 03:48 AM |
| 1 | A man without female friends is a red flagFather and brother probably not. But the rest absolutely. How close you allow each to get, how much time and energy you spend, your word choice and other cues, how you advance the relationship or don’t. All of it is based on mate selection, on both sides. I mean, this is true of every animal. That’s just how the world turns. A lot of it unconscious, of course. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 07:33 AM |
| 1 | A man without female friends is a red flagIf you think men and women can have non-sexual interactions I have a bridge to sell you. Every single interaction between any given man and any given woman, by definition, happens on a foundation of sex. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 07:23 AM |
| – | CMV: If it's true that men don't pull their weight in housework in reversed relationships, it's a "fuck you pay me" situationThis is I think just because women make a certain set of consumer decisions regardless of who makes the money (women love to shop / plan / etc), and then the breadwinner makes other decisions organically (where to invest the money, health insurance, etc.) | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 07:14 AM |
| – | Attraction isn’t a meritocracyThis subreddit, and the world, generally revile two groups of people: 1) men who incessantly pursue women for casual sex who they will never land 2) women who trick themselves into thinking men who will never commit to them actually do like them and so give up sex easily to these men So when people say women have unrealistic standards, it’s because of the concept in (2) above. 1 and 2 are both derived from historical reality where the world needed men who would play their role and care for child… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 07:06 AM |
| 1 | What do you think about this quote from Bell Hooks?Fine in theory but ultimately her research was probably funded by grants and programs underpinned by people who created real value in the real world | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 06:57 AM |
| 1 | Women Aren't Playing the Victim. Red Pill Men Don't Understand Consent.Wrong way to look at this, even if it got popular on campuses. We all know what rape looks like, what a fair HR complaint looks like, etc. That’s the test here. There’s no need to over analyze normal sexual encounters where no one meant harm. And if you think I’m wrong just think about this. In any marriage, if one partner turns down sex enough, the marriage will end. This will have obvious consequences for that person, maybe financial, but certainly disruptive regardless of finances. So is all … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/26 06:49 AM |
| 1 | Women being sexually selective with their own partners makes almost no sense.Dude it makes complete sense from a historical perspective. Pregnancy -> costly + unclear who the dad is if she’s sleeping around Families and villages —> need all the babies to be accounted for and provided for and clear inheritance and shit Men —> want sex Women —> want sex Men —> don’t want to care for babies that aren’t theirs Women and their fathers —> don’t want to get pregnant and be alone and have a child they can’t care for So social norms evolved where: Men —> have to show that they ar… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/07/26 08:58 PM |
| -6 | Just because a woman wants a relationship with you doesn't mean she desires you.The tell is just that they are clearly ready to get married after one date or even before the date. Like the exact same type of interest you might have in getting a post-tax $20M payout. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/07/26 02:10 PM |
| 2 | Just because a woman wants a relationship with you doesn't mean she desires you.Oh yes they do lol I’m relatively attractive but extremely wealthy. If I want I can get married to some nurse off hinge tomorrow — that’s less so a function of desire and more a function of her setting her life up. I’m attractive enough, so it isn’t the perfect example, but you can 100% tell when someone mainly sees you as their “ticket” and it happens all the time | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/07/26 02:01 PM |

| 3 | Why do some women find it so much more difficult to orgasm than others?The “answer” is just that the female orgasm isn’t necessary for reproduction so evolution was indifferent to it. The male orgasm is critical to reproduction so men who don’t finish didn’t reproduce and so eventually we are all genetically predisposed to be shooting jizz left and right. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/07/26 03:25 AM |

| – | There’s nothing wrong with living for love.Sure it may not be wrong, but I wonder if guys who do that are really being the person they are, or if they haven’t found that yet so they’re defaulting to whatever the nearby stimulus is. I think every man needs a war to fight, whatever that war is for you. Make a career out of that and you’ll be happy and dating & family is just something that happens around that. I could be wrong — there could be guys who genuinely love relationships and all that, but personally think women are built that way… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/07/26 03:19 AM |

| 1 | There are no blue pill influencers for men because the lies don't workThe right is becoming the party of Id (unsocialized animal instinct) and the left the party of superego (behaving according to how you think everyone wants you to). We all use both in our lives, but our entertainment is usually weighted towards the former, because the latter is boring. That’s why there aren’t as many blue content creators. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/07/26 03:10 AM |

| 3 | Is it ok to hate women who do not understand men?I mean I’ll be honest, it’s easy to resent the other gender if you feel like they don’t find you attractive. But if you work out and are socially adjusted that shouldn’t be the case (don’t believe 80/20 doomerism from no-life’s online) | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/01/26 04:33 AM |

| 1 | Women should compete for the Provider Position If they feel Men Have It Easier.Both genders are dealing with some sticky gender role stuff. Women have the freedom to work and be independent now, but many are still socially conditioned, naturally inclined and often expected to be maternal / managerial domestically, and their professional success doesn’t make them more attractive to men in a uniform way. Many men meanwhile are still socially conditioned / expected / inclined to be successful and wealthy, and many women are still attracted to this higher relative status.

| 3 | Telling people to be single is a form of mate suppressionSingle people absolutely do not make the best customers and employees — there is no blanket statement like that. You can divide single and coupled folks into archetypes and if you do I think you’ll probably find that coupled folks are generally more predictably behaved which is good for employees for example | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/11/25 07:34 PM |
| 0 | why do so many men look down on sex workers (escorts, prostitutes, onlyfans model, sugarbabies etc ) but at the same time also consume their services/content?Yes, definitely — it will always be in demand. It doesn’t necessarily always have to be low status — but it definitely always has been and is currently. I think the basic reason it is low status is because in the wild, before we were “humans,” status was basically: for a male, ability to have sex with whichever females you want, which is achieved through combat dominance vs. other males and external threats, and for a female, to be the favored (even if not exclusive) female of a high status male… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/11/25 11:50 PM |
| 39 | why do so many men look down on sex workers (escorts, prostitutes, onlyfans model, sugarbabies etc ) but at the same time also consume their services/content?Difference between having someone clean your toilet and being the guy that cleans toilets — it’s low status work that is still in demand. As to why it’s considered low status — that’s a whole ball of yarn | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/11/25 10:51 PM |
| 1 | Why do you think women want to talk to men?Like them | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/11/25 05:44 PM |
| – | Women expanded their gender role to include what women traditionally do and what men traditionally do. A lot of men are rejected by society because they dont want to do anythingI think there’s a couple of things 1) some of this is matching — if someone who wants to be a SAHD goes on tik tok and sees a bunch of trad wife content showing contempt for someone like him then he will be engaged and frustrated; whereas someone who is a traditional provider type will be shown other stuff that highlights their own insecurities or frustrations etc — engagement bait — same thing goes for women — providers can find trad wives and 50/50 types can find their match and SAHDs can find… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/25 10:54 PM |
| 2 | Certain parts of female sexuality give men the ickIt’s porn, porn is weird because the whole point is to try to take one thing people like about sex and dial it up to the extreme to give a part of the brain a concentrated hit and rush. Similar to how McDonald’s flavors are gross and made in a lab but also our lizard brain loves them type of thing. The CNC thing is basically a reconciliation of the innate desire to submit sexually that all people have (I mean, without this desire existing in our DNA we would not reproduce as efficiently), reconc… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/25 02:42 AM |
| 1 | Do men genuinely want to return to traditional gender roles ?There’s no way 70% of men want that — I definitely don’t want that, sounds v boring | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/11/25 07:33 AM |
| 1 | What's even the point for average woman to be in a relationship with average men?Who do you do stuff with on the weekends, who do you have a glass of wine with after work? Relationships are really about answering those questions at least at first imo, finding someone you really love spending time with and touching | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/11/25 05:54 PM |

But obviously if it doesn’t for whatever reason for someone you shouldn’t let it make you anxious. Live your life and be open to connecting with people and don’t be neurotic and you’ll have a happy relational life. But my answers.. Sex: 18-20? Maybe like by the time you get out of college.

| 1 | What options do high income women have?Well I know a lot of such women so I guess I can give you some concrete examples — the short answer is they date assortative-ly like most other people, primarily dating people from “their world” meaning some aspect of school / work / family. Same as the men. I know third hand (from online) that comp difference sometimes causes what my sense is is “mutually reinforcing” relationship friction — but irl this hasn’t been a problem for my female friends, or my male friends for that matter. However — … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/10/25 10:55 PM |
| 1 | Female written romantic literature is insanely patriarchalIt’s porn for women. Porn is an escape fantasy, and it is fun in part because it is fake — it takes a set of evolutionarily attractive paradigms and creates a visual or written representation that gives you a hyper concentrated “hit” of these ideas. It’s an episodic experience, not something you want for your baseline life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/10/25 11:44 PM |
| 1 | Situationship is a term made up by women to make themselves feel better about being used for sexBeing “used for sex” is only a term that has meaning if you assume that the woman only wants to have sex with someone if that person is interested in a committed life partnership with her for at least some period of time. I think that is sometimes true for some “instances of sex” | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/10/25 11:40 PM |

| -1 | There really isn't a correct way to approach womenYes there is. You just look at her, and if she gives you a look that is best described as like the look you would give someone who is like juggling on a unicycle (sort of like an intrigue), then you’re good to say hi. Otherwise don’t. They only do it for a second though unless they’ve been drinking. It kind of looks like a look you’d give if someone off hand mentioned that they might want to offer you a slightly preferable to your current job. / like they’re waiting for you to say something.

| – | What are some secrets men dont tell women?I’ve been in a relationship like that when I was younger but it fell apart when I hooked up with her good friend which I guess was off limits — that was honestly a very stupid thing to do in retrospect. It’s just rare to find a woman I’m attracted to for a relationship who is looking for that kind of relationship. I agree with you though, greater interpersonal honesty and/or temperance would be laudable traits for me to adopt. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/08/25 08:01 PM |
| – | What are some secrets men dont tell women?I wouldn’t care if she cheated on me. Maybe that’s why subconsciously it doesn’t bother me that much when I do it. Interesting point. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/08/25 07:58 PM |
| – | What are some secrets men dont tell women?Mainly because there are not that many girls that I am attracted to for a relationship that are looking for that kind of arrangement. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/08/25 07:55 PM |
| – | What are some secrets men dont tell women?Some stuff that fits for me, but everyone’s different to an extent. This is just stuff I feel that I just would not articulate irl for obvious reasons. 1) like you said, I cheat, which I know is not nice. I don’t think most guys do / would. But I just really enjoy variety and sex. The right thing to do would be to do open relationship stuff but I don’t want to do that for the obvious reasons. So I just cheat, which like I said I know is bad. 2) porn is dope as hell. It’s fucking awesome. I doubt… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/08/25 05:51 AM |
| 2 | If knowing your own attractiveness was like having a spider-sense, women generally have it way more finely tuned than men , and a lot of men don’t have it at all.That’s also bc men have much more prescriptive taste as a gender vs women. I’ve had girls I consider equally attractive all find me varying levels of attractiveness for varying reasons. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/08/25 07:19 PM |
| 1 | Do you or someone you know pay for Onlyfans?I’d rather rub one out than text some girl that I would just be using for sex. It detracts from my peace to have to carry on that charade. Even in a relationship, sometimes it’s nice to rub one out, it’s a different feeling than sex. You don’t masturbate? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/25 08:37 PM |

| – | Online dating, If Truly Designed to Satisfy Users, Would Solve All Our Dating WoesThe problem with online dating is that it’s kind of a lift to go see someone you met on an app. So it has to be pretty enticing, which is why many people primarily invest time in people “out of their league.” The real solution is for people to just go to bars and drink together. That’s always been the glue that holds this country together, and it still is! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/08/25 01:59 AM |
| 1 | How do you all talk about this online discourse in real life?Yeah I mean I’ve had rl convo’s about the deeper ideas like how both women and men are now socialized as agents and society is still evolving to incorporate this paradigm etc | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/25 06:07 PM |
| 1 | Ladies! I’m just genuinely curious on why you don’t care if your man lusts over other women?Porn is kinda whatever Actual cheating that goes beyond harmless flirting is bad Onlyfans kind of rides the line. I mean, it’s porn. But if someone is also doing the parasocial messaging stuff, then even if there’s no reciprocation it’s still a little weird. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/25 05:54 PM |
| 1 | Do you or someone you know pay for Onlyfans?Well I can’t get, nor do I want, that specific girl. She has a very unique look. I do very well with women irl, but you can only really date one girl at a time so porn is nice for variety. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/25 05:08 PM |
| 2 | How do you all talk about this online discourse in real life?Things don’t stay that way for long these days because everyone gets saturated with the “taboo” of it from doom scrolling and then before long late night shows are doing balanced jokes about how the gender wars are dumb — I’ve had many convos irl about how incels and femcels should just pair up and disappear from the internet e.g. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/25 07:43 AM |
| 1 | How do you all talk about this online discourse in real life?I think if you have a well reasoned and logical opinion it’s usually socially acceptable to share, unless it’s just a very touchy subject (this isn’t in most circles), or you are hanging out with unthinking people, which I try not to do. My “gender wars” opinions are perfectly shareable if the topic comes up | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/08/25 07:19 AM |
| 5 | Onlyfans proves male hypergamy.Lol this is a pretty decent argument against the brain dead 80/20 stuff. The #1 argument against all that is just the basic fact that it’s much more like top 30% of women are into the top 20-30% of men and no one deeply cares what the bottom 70% of either gender do | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/07/25 11:06 PM |
| 1 | Hypergamy is real. But what's wrong is saying that it's "women's fault." Or that women are "Sharing men."I mean, I’m not the target audience of this post, but I will say that this essentially is the red pill doctrine, no? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/07/25 01:02 AM |
| – | Why do you genuinely think men are more lonely now?I personally can’t really relate to the male loneliness epidemic but I do I think know the root cause, which is that male friendships are not the same as female-female or male-female friendships or relationships. The latter two make you feel seen / heard in a deeper way which is ultimately what makes you feel less alone. If I didn’t have those I would feel lonely. If I didn’t have my male friendships I would feel sad / bored but not really as lonely. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/25 02:26 AM |
| 2 | What’s your checklist before a date?I just go to the date. If im gonna live with her she’s gonna have to like me and I her sans checklist. I keep my “get ready in the morning” routine even on WFH days and I try to keep my apt in “company shape” most days bc my friends make last minute plans all the time. If I was messier on a day to day I would def clean my apt / make bed before dates. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/07/25 12:33 AM |

| 3 | Explain so many involuntarily single men at a roughly 50/50 gender ratioIn 1960, 13% of all adults were obese. In 2018, that figure was 42%, and for women 20-39 it was 40%. Note that obesity is much more prevalent in the 40-59 age group than in the 20-39 (or 59+ group — sad) so actually this comparison understates the total increase in obesity among the group of women of roughly marrying age. And this is just obesity, not overweight status. There are obviously other factors such as technology which is a major one, but one of the key founding principles of all manosp… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/07/25 07:59 PM |

| 1 | Question for feminists: If paying for sex with prostitutes always non-consensual since that consent is bought with money, wouldn’t that make all paid labour also non-consensual since that labour is compensated with money?Sex work is complicated so you’ll get a lot of different perspectives whether someone identifies as a feminist or not I think sex work is fine as long as the women or men want to be there and aren’t being physically forced. “Not having other job options” is not force — everyone has some menial employment opportunities; if those are not acceptable to someone, and that person instead chooses to engage in sex work, that’s a free choice. If they’re being physically forced then that’s sex trafficking… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/07/25 02:52 AM |

| 11 | How often do you run into men who are "good/solid/catch" men that cannot seem to attract women - if, so what is typically the glaring obvious reason why? is there ever a time where just is no good reason?The main reason for a guy like that to be single is that he doesn’t want to be in a relationship with the many options he has (put differently, he is being a little picky). And it’s extremely common. This basically describes ~50%+ of singles in NYC of both genders. They are usually aware that they are single because of their own pickiness and so don’t feel like “they can’t attract” a partner / are comfortable being single. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/07/25 03:53 AM |

People often don’t know how really how to react or feel about their life. If you can project certainty you give them certainty and people love that. “Oh ok I should be at this restaurant with this person, this is nice and a good life.” 2) correlation — attractive people are often confident in situations where there attractiveness makes it logical for them to be | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/06/25 04:57 PM |

| 26 | The average woman has a lower libido than the average manThis is definitely true, though once in a relationship I think it can be a lot more varied. Men need to ejaculate a lot, but it’s not necessarily uncommon for women to desire sex with their partner more often than the partner needs it. There’s also sort of a decoupling of sexual promiscuity and libido in single people, as for both men and women, “modern masturbation” (I.e. with toys or porn) is often more physically pleasurable than many of the sexual options available to each, and comes with le… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/06/25 10:47 PM |

I honestly would consider dating her even though she had a pretty face but all my friends would be like dude what are you doing. 2) women do this too — the idea that you’d like to be out of your partner’s league because it’s nice to have the peace of mind / “upper hand” in the relationship a little — it was a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/06/25 06:34 AM |

| 1 | Why are OF models disliked?I think a lot of people have contempt for sex workers, both men and women, for the usual reasons. I think there is another component which is that people project onto OF models a particular behavior that people dislike, which can perhaps be called “bad faith moralization and romanticization of normal stuff.” People like when people are honest about normal relatable things and the decisions they are making. It often isn’t likable when people appear to be putting apparently duplicitous moral or ro… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/25 01:18 AM |

| 1 | "Chad" is less likely to be misogynistic than a sexually inexperienced man: A study found that the more sexually experienced a man is, the more biased he is towards women.I think it’s probably both, little of column a little of column b. Guys with bad attitudes are less likely to get laid and also guys who get positive attention from women are more likely to like them That said idt the study gives any illustrative examples of questions asked in the surveys. Depending on the specific questions the interpretation may need to be adjusted | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/25 12:15 AM |
| 5 | A word about "single mothers"To some extent all of the gender wars is predicated on “I have contempt for xyz archetype of the opposite sex and am upset because I perceive that they believe they are more attractive than me — publicly expressing my contempt will allow me to feel better about myself” Here, the cathartic value is clear — imagine a decently attractive normal woman whose dating options are severely limited because she has a kid — that picture is probably quite appealing for some Manosphere folks.

| 4 | Prostitution should be legalizedSex work is very complex. No woman wants to do it, but some will if they feel it is their best option. Right off the bat, uncomfortable. Sex workers are reviled in society, but also sex work is consumed every day by men of every population segment. Very few if any sex workers would want their daughter to do it. In many circles, doing sex work would be reducing your status to zero in exchange for money. Who would want that? What if someone’s check bounces? Is that rape or theft?

| 2 | Post-Scarcity should come to the Sexual Marketplace.Yeah I don’t think it will be hard to replicate the actual physical experience of sex. But frankly porn and other technologies are almost better in terms of orgasm quality than a lot of sex is. Obv sex has various physical sensations that the former don’t, and a robot could replicate those. But I think if it isn’t a “real person” on the receiving end, there will always be a delta between that and real sex. Because of the psychological side of it.

| 1 | How true is the notion that you all are lonely as well because of a lack of good options for boyfriends, not because of a lack of options in general.Yeah I agree with you. I’m just saying that I think the sociology of sex has something to do with it as well in addition to the physical sensation of sex, in determining the perceived quality of sex. I.e., as a man, any sex with someone who is sufficiently attractive is good sex. Yes because it feels good, but honestly sometimes jacking off feels better.

| 2 | How true is the notion that you all are lonely as well because of a lack of good options for boyfriends, not because of a lack of options in general.The other piece here is that many “incels” whether male or female aren’t really seeking sex and relationships — it seems they are more so seeking to be considered attractive by those they find attractive — or if not those they find attractive, those they find to be “in their league.” And perhaps even more so than that, they want the status that accrues to someone who is found attractive by those they find attractive, or perhaps those that “most” find attractive.

| 1 | Prostitution should be legalizedHonestly I agree that if I could “pay her to leave” I totally would. The problem is I find it inherently exploitative. No one wants their daughter to be a sex worker. Even sex workers don’t want that for their kids. Sure sure all work is exploitative, but the fact is there always has been, is, and always will be a significant incremental discomfort with sex work. I don’t know that legalization would help people who have trouble dating though. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/04/25 05:17 PM |

I do think they are all a little romantic. Ime. Being in the same friend circle is obv not romantic necessarily but if you would describe yourself as friends with xyz, I think that is probably a little romantic. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/25 08:04 AM |

Fair enough, I hooked up with one not long after. For me, honestly, female friends are usually people I don’t want to date for some reason but I do romantically like.

| 1 | Q4All - How do we adjust the education system to suit boys? Does this NPR podcast series "Falling Behind: The Miseducation of America's Boys" present the issue fairly?Totally agree. I had to act like I didn’t know where my folder or binder was to be cool like the other guys. Girls are expected to do their homework neatly and in all sorts of colors. Men were expected to scribble it before hockey practice. Obviously now I wouldn’t care at all what other kids think but when you’re a kid it’s very difficult to transcend the idea that your current stage of life is all there is.

| 1 | Q4All - How do we adjust the education system to suit boys? Does this NPR podcast series "Falling Behind: The Miseducation of America's Boys" present the issue fairly?I think it’s because boys are expected primarily by US culture to be good at sports. Being good at school is actually portrayed as a “nice to have, if you’re also very good at sports.” If you aren’t good at sports, you are basically treated like a nerd by the whole school and everyone likes the smart athletes, then the athletes, then the smart kids in that order. It all changes once you graduate college of course, but we do our kids a disservice by having them live in a weird false hierarchy unt… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/25 10:55 PM |

| 1 | Why doesn't porn seem to warp womens' perceptions of sex the same way it does for men?Yeah agree on all points, though there must be a reason that porn evolved the way it has into its unsexy/scary modern form vs having been more woman-friendly from the start, the way erotica has been for a long time now? And vice versa for erotica. My guess is it has something to do with how men and women experience horniness and what they need to sate it, but the specifics within that are I’m sure complex and nuanced | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/25 06:17 PM |
| 1 | Why doesn't porn seem to warp womens' perceptions of sex the same way it does for men?Yeah that’s a good point tbh, both on paraphilia and on most non-tumblr gif porn not really showing anything that would entice women. But surely there is some reason there isn’t more porn designed for women / it isn’t as mainstream? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/25 05:59 PM |
| 1 | Feminists somehow acknowledge men being expected to be breadwinners, stoic protectors and pursuers under "patriarchy hurts men too" while they simultaneously tell men their dating issues have nothing to do with society or women.Obviously any dating issue that anyone has has to do with the interaction between that person and society / the pursued gender. I think what people are saying is that it is up to that person to control what they can and accept what they cannot — what you can control is yourself. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/25 05:49 PM |

| 2 | Why doesn't porn seem to warp womens' perceptions of sex the same way it does for men?I meant psych triggers like the woman’s pleasure (incl from oral), the audio cues from the gay guys, the dominance / passion / submission in rougher porn, similar to what you’re saying etc. Straight porn I think is more bing bang boom in that for a guy to get off there really just has to be the woman, in some sort of sexual situation if even that, we’re just much more sexually simple in that way | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/25 05:36 PM |

| 0 | Why doesn't porn seem to warp womens' perceptions of sex the same way it does for men?Yeah but I think just less. Also a lot of women I know watch primarily if not only lesbian porn or even gay porn, I think basically because heterosexual porn is very “bing bang boom got that out of the way let’s get back to life” whereas some of those other types of porn have more of the psychological triggers / subtleties that are hot for women. On the other end of the continuum some women are into bdsm porn, but I think women into “mainstream” porn is actually a thinner quantity. Who knows tho… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/25 05:16 PM |
| 2 | If marrying is so dangerous, why do men still marry in 2025? For any PPD married men here: why did you marry?Tbh I would always do a pre-nup. Doesn’t matter if she’s the love of my life. But it is complex, as if one partner forgoes earning potential to provide a platform for the family to prosper in other ways, then how do you divide things if the relationship changes? On the other hand, should both partners continue to work full steam ahead, forcing much of family life to be outsourced to inferior hired providers? Brutal | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/25 03:21 AM |
| 1 | Why do women want men to provide but not make more?I mean this is a topic area where there is definitely stuff to be said — as the male and female relationship to the economy begins to converge several traditional gender norms become more complicated.

| -1 | People on this sub don't understand what being in your Prime or the Wall actually meansTotally false.

For example picture a woman with extremely high SMV/RMV — we are all picturing something generally somewhat similar now.

For men, fucking anyone moderately attractive (7/10+, skinny) gives you that feeling to some extent (which just btw is already only like 30% of women which is important to note).

| 6 | When a conventionally unattractive woman low-key brags about her hedonistic sex life, how to rationalize it?I think just because this isn’t how people talk in regular life bro. Unless this was on some red pill type forum, discussing any of this so explicitly and/or using any of the “terms of art” used in this set of fora is going to just get you called an incel and rightfully so — this stuff should be kept to theoretical discussions online and in real life you should just be yourself and touch grass.

Meanwhile super attractive people obviously in theory have more options than less attractive people, but I literally never see attractive men “steal away” women… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/03/25 05:41 AM |
| 1 | Female Sexuality is innately SelfishIdk my first rxn was just to see this as a little women hating for no reason. But yeah I see where you’re coming from. For me though I think all people are turned on by feeling sexy. Sex is narcissistic like that — I like when she touches my muscles because I know it’s impressive to her, shit like that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/03/25 05:24 AM |
| 4 | When a conventionally unattractive woman low-key brags about her hedonistic sex life, how to rationalize it?I’m going to get shit on for this but Bro find me the ugly chick that’s fucking around a lot. That doesn’t exist.. I seriously think people are attracted to their “equals” and that it’s similarly accessible for women and men to date / fuck their equals. I don’t understand why people take it as obvious wisdom that that’s not the case. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/03/25 05:20 AM |
| 3 | If men are more eager, in what way is that okay to manifest in society?Yeah I see where you are coming from. Tbh I think women are just as eager it’s just less socially acceptable for them to go around fucking everyone. They constrain behavior like that to places where it’s appropriate and context where it’s more socially acceptable like club/bar/going to dinner/vacations/shit like that I’ve observed / experienced horniness in women that way transcends male horniness. Male horniness is like an itch you have to scratch, but female horniness that I’ve seen at its pea… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/03/25 04:49 AM |
| 51 | Women often view toxicity through a male-centric lens, making them less likely to recognize their own toxic behavior.There is definitely female toxicity out there and ime it stems from the same place as male toxicity — insecurity | /r/PurplePillDebate | 11/03/25 04:48 AM |

| 1 | Since ageing is inevitable - why are women still being pushed to marry and have children young?Yeah aging really screws women for sure. The “everyday benefit” of being significantly attractive drops off. People are just a little less nice, you have that much less social opportunity readily available. Just life I guess but it isn’t like the end of the world and it’s not that impactful to the quality of your relationships and friendships, but the everyday value in knowing that others see you as attractive is lessened for sure | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 09:17 PM |
| 1 | 4B and MGTOW are the exact same.Yeah that’s crazy. Although zero people I know have stated any such pledge. Also what is MGTOW? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 07:56 PM |
| – | Masculinity - a scamI see your point — one thing though, I didn’t read that as OP justifying criminality. Read charitably, his view expressed here has been quite common in academia for decades now, and at a high level I do believe it is directionally accurate. A lot of crime is driven by male insecurity, especially non-economic crimes. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 08:42 AM |
| 3 | There's really no proof that men love more unconditionally than womenAgree — the one thing though, like most scams, it’s not just being dumb but also that they want to believe it. Anyone who claims to have “the truth of the world” figured out really saves you a lot of time and energy thinking if you can just take the red pill instead. It’s undeniably an appealing pitch | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 07:41 AM |
| 5 | There's really no proof that men love more unconditionally than womenIt’s insanely toxic. It’s like some mean girls shit — “Jessica said that she doesn’t like your outfit” when Jessica never said anything like that. Make you insecure so you need a friend and then be that friend. She’s going to leave you all you really have is me, this blogger | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 07:28 AM |
| 1 | Q4W who identify with feminism. Are there any priveleges that mostly benefit women you’re advocating to give up in the name of equality.Yeah this is one of the things that modernity / the culture will have to contend with over the next 50 years. Well intentioned smart people were like women should be able to have jobs and go to school — obviously. Then it was also well intentioned smart people who were like boards should be 50% female, mgmt teams should be 50% female, etc. — slightly more complex now but I can see how you might need positive action like that to overwrite long held biases. But now there are a LOT of expectations … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 07:02 AM |
| 0 | The best way to correct the dating market is for men to leave women alone.You really feel like women you date don’t care about you as a human being? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 06:48 AM |
| 4 | The best way to correct the dating market is for men to leave women alone.100%. Although at this point I think most of this forum is people who are now addicted to telling those people and their female equivalents to touch grass | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 06:45 AM |
| 0 | The idea that men are intimidated by successful women is mostly a myth.Definitely agree. Also can’t paint genders as a monolith. Of the 6 women that immediately come to mind for whom I know their motivations / outlook: 1) very traditional values — wants to be a SAHM eventually, but doesn’t need a ton of money 2) doesn’t care who is the breadwinner, but believes it will be her husband, but fine if it isn’t 3) looking to marry rich 4) wants the man to be the breadwinner 5) doesn’t care who is the breadwinner, but by her own admission won’t be due to her field 6) look… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 06:30 AM |
| 7 | The best way to correct the dating market is for men to leave women alone.Yeah wouldn’t surprise me, dating apps are a big driver of all of this gender wars content too. The response we always have for crazy shit on here is “touch grass, go outside,” but until the first date anyway, dating apps basically are like human interaction w/o touching grass and going outside, so it can be very toxic just people making decisions based on face/school/job. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 06:29 AM |
| 1 | The best way to correct the dating market is for men to leave women alone.Yeah you are right. Perhaps gold digger content is necessary because the RP/manosphere is all basically predicated on the 80/20 idea that 80% of women go for 20% of men. Which is obviously false by just looking around, but RP proponents can talk around that, but it’s undeniably false by the simple fact that people get married and the human race has not ground to a halt. But by saying that those marriages are only happening because women are gold diggers and need a “workhorse” you can keep the il… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 06:24 AM |
| 3 | The idea that men are intimidated by successful women is mostly a myth.Yeah I see what you mean. Intimidate is a word people use colloquially but it’s an oversimplification / what they really mean is something different. There’s a lot of movies and books and shows that touch on these themes. I think some to many women feel that men are looking for a particular set of relational dynamics at home. They want their wife to be a witness to their life, a cheerleader, a caretaker. They want to feel like “the man” at home, as all men have a little bit of a need to feel lik… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 06:06 AM |
| 0 | LGBTQ, Feminist, and Body Positivity movements should be men's greatest allies.Yeah but the TRP premises are all wrong lmao. Go outside you see everywhere the “80/20” rule just doesn’t hold. I feel like what really drives the continued existence of incels / RP is just that men’s perception of an “average” girl is somewhat skewed by social media / etc. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 05:18 AM |
| 3 | The best way to correct the dating market is for men to leave women alone.So much of the anti-woman side of this subreddit seems financially driven. Why? Some women I hang out with are like self professed gold diggers and own it, but it’s definitely not all women that are like that. In my experience it’s like 1 in 5 are like primarily motivated by money in relationships | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 05:05 AM |
| 1 | Why do seemingly wholesome women consume so much toxic anti-male content on social media?Yeah def get how it seems weird. I think basically content about “the worst version of the other gender” gets a lot of engagement. It’s what this whole subreddit is for example, people love it, it scratches some itch. She clearly doesn’t actually believe that — seems like its more she gets to just scratch the itch of hating the “hypothetical awful guy” | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/03/25 04:55 AM |
| 6 | LOOKS WEEKLY DISCUSSION THREADI remember that that was so weird. When I was a kid you’d search like “which axe spray will get me the most girls” or “are dog people different from cat people” or something stupid like that and there would be an in depth discussion on bodybuilding.com Yahoo answers and bodybuilding.com did a lot of heavy lifting | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 08:09 PM |
| -2 | LOOKS WEEKLY DISCUSSION THREADYeah that can be hard. But it’s like “my flight got delayed” hard, not “dunk a basketball” hard — I.e. everyone does it. First thing I’ll say is I’m sure you’ve been invited to something in the last few months that you said no to for some reason or another — the easiest way to have a booming social life is to just be a “yes man” for a while. You’re down to hang whenever wherever (within your value system). Second: You must have work or school — would suggest you start there and grab beers with s… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:59 AM |
| 0 | LOOKS WEEKLY DISCUSSION THREADIt’s interesting how women sometimes have such different types but men at least ime all seem to have pretty similar types (not exactly the same ofc but more similar than women ime). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:49 AM |
| -1 | LOOKS WEEKLY DISCUSSION THREADBro what are you talking about turn off Reddit and go socialize right now | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:46 AM |
| 3 | LOOKS WEEKLY DISCUSSION THREADFor sure you need to be confident in life for anything good to come your way — though improving your attractiveness improves your attractiveness. Hitting the gym is recommended because it makes you hot — literally every Olympian is attractive — it ain’t a coincidence. Olympian body fat % and a little muscle = hot person. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:43 AM |
| 11 | LOOKS WEEKLY DISCUSSION THREADI think they’re about the same league lol..dude needs to fix his hair and hit the gym and she has taken this picture in a way that you can’t even tell what she looks like which is not a good sign | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:38 AM |
| 1 | CMV: CMV: Alot of men/women overcomplicate the shit out of livingDefinitely agree that a lot of what’s posted here seems like men and women reacting to rage baiting online content that people in real life don’t really believe in any meaningful wat | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:37 AM |
| 1 | Why do you view male sexuality as inherently objectifying and degrading?Definitely see your point, but there are clearly vastly substantial differences between humans and chimps even if our DNA is very similar, that 1% difference is really felt. So pretty fair to think there are differences to how we think and behave socially | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:34 AM |
| 1 | Modern dating and IRL approachesI meet people at bars all the time and then you merge groups or whatever — that is very much still a thing for friendship / dating / ONS etc | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:30 AM |
| 2 | Majority of "misandrists" are men.Yeah this is def true I mean more in general is expected of men in certain ways, more is expected of women in certain other ways. Those gender norms cut both ways and we all uphold it every day imo. It’s not all bad but you gotta be aware of it | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:28 AM |
| 0 | CMV: just because she enjoys the sex doesn't mean you aren't using her for her bodyGuy is not in the wrong — they’re both enjoying what they’re doing usually. This happens all the time | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 06:06 AM |
| 1 | Society should encourage Women to become single moms.That’s crazy | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/03/25 05:57 AM |
| 1 | Women wield a ton of access to sex. But, it's pointless to argue about it.Yeah you’re probably right but my only thing there is I feel like they still have to go way below their own attractiveness level to do that, like it’s not hard to hook up with unattractive girls on hinge if that’s what your goal is (that’s obv mean and one shouldn’t lead people on, just saying the ability to do that is not that different between men and women) | /r/PurplePillDebate | 08/03/25 11:00 PM |
| 1 | Women wield a ton of access to sex. But, it's pointless to argue about it.Yeah I see where you’re coming from, my question is though do women have easier access to sex than men? Probably going to be told it’s obvious that the answer is yes but I’d like to hear the argument for it because in my head it isn’t really that black and white at first | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/03/25 09:03 PM |
| 4 | Why do you view male sexuality as inherently objectifying and degrading?This is obvious in reality but it’s actually difficult to articulate exactly what drives it. I think people basically like to feel valued and attractive. It isn’t going to make anyone feel valued and attractive to say certain types of overly sexual things or even just certain direct compliments. Like if you say “nice ass” or “I want to xyz gross thing” — that communicates that you like “ass” and “xyz gross thing” — it doesn’t make anyone feel valued or attractive. Try extending a “just and lovin… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/03/25 08:36 PM |

| 7 | The Sexual Diversity Movement is a Cultural InvasionCool, and he’s saying that that’s a bad thing why? Or is he just saying that it’s a Western thing and we shouldn’t “deny other cultures the right to explore their own solutions —“ to that point, solutions to what stated problem? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/03/25 02:41 PM |

| 5 | Is effort attractive?Maybe she’s born with it | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/03/25 02:27 AM |
| 1 | Is effort attractive?Yeah definitely admirable to aspire to leadership for the right reasons. I think leadership ought to be an organic thing — starts with leading by example, and grows through ongoing dedication to the group being led. But I don’t think that transcends being yourself — it’s just another different thing imo | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/03/25 02:08 AM |
| 2 | Is effort attractive?Well said | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/03/25 02:01 AM |
| 1 | Is effort attractive?Lol yeah good point. But my question would be does anyone really think they or anyone ought to be that? Live that way? My personal view is no, but people can get stuck in certain life ways easily because humans are so adaptable — but that same adaptability means that once you get that flywheel going, people can change their minds and ways to fit their true values. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/03/25 01:47 AM |

| 15 | Men: What do you bring to the table?I feel like I tend to date my “equals,” so the concept of bringing things to the table is not really there Even if I did date someone who is in some way much better or much worse than me, I wouldn’t want to look at it like that.. I know I’m not the target market for this question — but the real question for me is what drives people to look at dating like a competition between man and woman as opposed to finding a partner. Is it just a string of bad experiences and then you’re like alright you kn… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 10:06 PM |
| 6 | What really is FDS?Yikes lol One thing I’ve noticed about FDS, that last bit of your screenshot is doing a lot of work there. Where she says her perspective is based on her dating tons of men in her 20s that didn’t get her or plan anything for V day. So there’s a component of where the “starting point” of some of these women is way too accepting / pushover so what reads like pretty aggressive advice is actually just bringing some of them to baseline selectivity. It reads really crazy but if you read it charitably … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 09:42 PM |
| 1 | Why do girls invest so much into their looks, but hate to be complimented about it?I think it’s more just that it isn’t always socially appropriate. Now why is it not socially appropriate is a pretty complex question. Maybe because it can be seen as a conspicuous expression of interest — which then puts the woman in the position of responding to that. And generally socially it’s usually only appropriate to do that when you have a pretty good sense that your interest is reciprocated (otherwise it’s awkward). But that’s not always the case — you can definitely platonically compl… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 09:34 PM |
| 3 | What really is FDS?Yeah seems pretty normal, although following anything to the letter is weird but in general not chasing men who don’t reciprocate commitment / investment makes sense obv. What are some of the big drivers that bring people to FDS? For TRP it seems like it’s a lot of men who feel they can’t get the attraction of women they like. And it’s more of seeing women as like a nice car or a nice house, I want the best one as opposed to I want a partner in life. For FDS it seems like it’s women who have bee… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 08:16 PM |
| 3 | What really is FDS?Yeah definitely but my point was just that the TRP “thesis” is quite clear — the opposition to that articulated on this subreddit runs the continuum from “normal people who think TRP is weird” to “people who are almost TRPish in the other direction” so it’s a little unclear what the actual debate is — but the other commenter explained it well | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 08:02 PM |
| 4 | What really is FDS?Thanks this is a very helpful articulation Complex topic Do you have views on what some of the big drivers are that lead people to these different schools of thought / groups Edit: just looked up “hypergamy” and kind of get why people think FDS is toxic now — similar to TRP it’s focused on treating the opposite sex like a BMW or something as opposed to a person and partner | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 07:50 PM |
| 1 | What really is FDS?Got it, I thought that the point of this subreddit is a debate forum between TRP and FDS. But sounds like it is more so a debate between TRP and “not TRP” (which is I guess what is meant by the blue pill). Is that more accurate | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 07:46 PM |

| 1 | Men use deception, not straightforward lies, to maintain casual sexual relationships. Deception is just as harmful as lying.Yeah, to be clear I think this is something men do when they’re younger, don’t know who they are or what they want, and generally aren’t ready to begin a life w/ someone (is what it was w me) — I would never do this now, it’s a waste of my time (and hers of course). I’m sure there are some men that don’t grow out of it until later in life though, and yeah generally it’s for all the perks of having a relationship w/ someone you aren’t actually interested in being with for whatever reason but yes … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 02:42 AM |
| 1 | Men use deception, not straightforward lies, to maintain casual sexual relationships. Deception is just as harmful as lying.Yeah definitely, this stuff gets weird when people start trying to quantify it but she has to be really attracted to the man for this dynamic to happen, it happens all the time tho | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 02:33 AM |
| 0 | Women's attraction is relative, Men's attraction is absolute.Dude this is not true, this is warped. You seem to be only thinking of a situation with a super attractive woman and an average or unattractive man. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 01:05 AM |
| 2 | Men use deception, not straightforward lies, to maintain casual sexual relationships. Deception is just as harmful as lying.Hm, I guess that’s fair. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/03/25 01:03 AM |
