And for many of us, walking that line is a non-negotiable lifestyle choice…

Money undoubtedly helps. It’s also not necessary either. I have very little money and I’ve been with some of the most beautiful women I could imagine, after having no luck whatsoever before my mid to late 20s. Just from working on myself and putting myself out there. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Because we have extensive life experience that contradicts what you are saying. Also, how do you know what young women are telling us?

I would never have believed this if it was t for a good friend of mine was telling me about this guy she was dating and said exactly that “he texted me yesterday and I really like him so I got nervous and I didn’t know what to say. So I just didn’t text back.” She said it like it was completely normal and was completely shocked when I told her he might be put off by her not texting him back. So I absolutely believe you on that.

Which is precisely the reason why there are so many threads about men who can’t find partners, and women complaining about “broke” men for that matter.

What really frustrates me now is mostly the way people are always so quick to sabotage others relationships. Men will always try to act like your a simp or whatever any time you try to e good to a woman for any reason, so that’s kinda frustrating.Women with few dating options will just create ridiculous unrealistic standards just to tear down any man their more appealing friends might be interested in, which is extremely frustrating. Men with lots of money will just throw outrageous sums of it a…

I mean yeah. I don’t know what color pill you would call it but it’s a hard one to swallow when you realize that you wasted all this time on blogs and books and shit when you could have just started hanging around women and easily figured it all out and made some friends to boot.

When I started spending a lot of time with women I just saw some of the realities of their experience and it made it easier for me to see their perspective. Like for some of these girls like their phones just never stop going off. Like I was hanging out with this girl and she was taking a nap and her phone was just constantly beeping. And then I thought damn she’s gonna wake up to all that spam basically. And then it occurred to me like oh that’s why she doesn’t text me back half the time. So ju…

Definitely. I used to be really frustrated with women in general until I started getting more experience with women (dating and as friends) and then their perspective really started to make sense. Now I’m frustrated by other things.

I said it's exaggerated, I didn't say it doesn't exist. If you say your way works, then I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. But it's not necessary, I promise you.
/r/PurplePillDebate24/03/22 01:21 AM

To put it in a more useful way, I think the point here is that “game” is a highly over exaggerated phenomenon. Get in shape, do interesting shit, go make money, etc. All these things will help your dating life a hell of a lot more than worrying about how you’re standing of the pitch of your voice or anything like that.
/r/PurplePillDebate21/03/22 08:45 AM

As someone who works in nightlife and is willing to give you the benefit of the doubt here, I feel like the most likely situation here is that she just felt different in the morning. Not about you, but just about being with someone in general. Social fatigue is a real thing, and sometimes it’s just too hard to stand out among the noise from all the attention they’re getting from all sides (guys trying to date them plus friends and family obligations). Just my best guess though.

You said you don’t know any successful men dating starbucks barristas. But there’s an extremely high profile example of almost that exact situation that I can think of off the top of my head. Now you’re moving the goalposts to just saying it’s not the norm. Well in my experience it is. You’re all over this thread too desperately trying to make this point too. Seems like you have some sort of bias here to me.

I think that’s exactly the point. It’s like the standards have gotten so unreasonable that just having the money isn’t enough, you have to have made the money in a way that will sound good to their friends and parties.

A very average looking single mom I work with just asked me to take her on a cruise... I literally just walked away from her. I think she thought she had a shot because one of my best friends is a single mom. Nope.

You act as if that choice is something we just get to make like we’re selecting an item at the supermarket. You’re talking about a very complex system involving billions of people each with their own motivations. You won’t get to make that choice.

She probably is, and that’s probably the cause of most of her frustrations. She probably had a good thing going with this guy with a few minor issues then she started yasss queening all over the place when she found FDS and now the guy doesn’t want to talk to her anymore because she treats him like shit based on bad advice she read on the Internet.

Yeah it’s kinda like you said all that other stuff that gets in the way of losing weight is difficult. But losing the weight in and of itself is easy. Don’t eat, that’s it. I struggle with my weight since middle school and I’ve had issues with depression and anxiety myself. I’m not trying to diminish those difficulties. Overcoming depression and/or anxiety is not easy. If food is your coping mechanism for that then yeah it’s going to make losing weight very difficult. Unless you find a new copin…

Losing weight is incredibly easy if you are properly motivated. Or pretty much impossible if you aren’t. The problem comes when you get hungry and start thinking “is this really worth it?” You start making excuses in your head. Or you start getting down on yourself thinking that you won’t succeed no matter how hard you try and the you cave. But I feel pretty confident that if people had a good concept how much they’re hurting their quality of life in general by being overweight, no one would be …

Because they don’t realize how much better their lives would be if they weren’t fat. That’s it really.

What you just described isnt different at all. Men often approach relationships in the transactional say that you described and that bothers me just as much, maybe more. It’s all just frustrating. But I think attraction factors in to the deeper things, whereas money, in and of itself, does not.
/r/PurplePillDebate15/05/21 01:15 AM
26

It really does. I mean the uncut part seems weird. Also I can’t imagine shes 35. I work with strippers and I’ve seen some pretty smoking hot 35 years olds, but none that have looked anything like that. There’s just no signs of aging in the stomach area at all.

Very true. Can’t argue with that one.
/r/PurplePillDebate14/05/21 08:54 PM

I think the difference is that one is driven by a transactional approach to relationships and the other is driven by the actual desire to be around the other person. Also, at the end of the day the among or money you have doesn’t really have anything to do with who you are as a person. Especially when you set the bar really high for financial success it just leaves most guys with nowhere to go. I think it’s fine to judge by work ethic, financial responsibility, future goals/plans and things like…

I mean I suppose you could argue that judging on looks is shallow but I’m pretty sure everyone does to some extent, that’s just the way it is. But a partner that likes you and won’t cheat? How is that shallow? That seems like the least shallow criteria you could have.

Yeah it’s really common. I’m 30 right now and my 20s were exactly as described above, but things are starting to turn around. Start looking around at successful middle aged men and you’ll probably see many examples of this. Granted the road is rough and it takes a lot of work to turn it around. But you shouldn’t give up hope. I think the hard part is not becoming bitter in the process. I definitely am, and it’s definitely hurting my quality of life. So just be cautious in that respect.

Just to point out how irrational these standards have become, this supposedly reasonable scenario would put a man at average height and almost twice the median income in the United States. You’re still really talking like a top %30 guy. And even that’s out of the question for these “queens”...

Not really. A hot chick who has been violently abused definitely doesn’t feel attractive and valued anymore regardless of how people see her. At least not until putting some serious effort into regaining their bearings on the world. Which in this case would be the metaphorical equivalent of going out and working to earn the money back.
/r/PurplePillDebate07/04/21 02:48 PM

Then if you want to narrow that down to young (like under 50), fit, not socially awkward, and have time to date, it basically drops down to zero.
/r/WhereAreAllTheGoodMen09/03/21 03:35 PM
2

Yeah I get what you’re saying. I’m just pointing out that she said couldn’t find anyone up to her standards AND that wanted to settle down. Who would want to settle down with a 38 year old woman? Definitely not a fit attractive 38 year old man, when they could likely take their pick any number of 25 years olds.
/r/WhereAreAllTheGoodMen03/03/21 08:22 PM
2

I mean, yeah if you date 500 people and none of them are good enough for you, then your standards are the problem not the people you’re dating. But she also said with a lot of them the problem was just that they didn’t want to settle down. So I’m assuming some of those men met her standards or she wouldn’t have mentioned it. My guess is that’s probably the main issue she’s running into. A fit and attractive man in his late 30s is going to choose a woman in her late 20s, not a woman that’s 38. Bu…

This is a really good point and I think it’s the main reason you see so many women like the ones on this sub. When they’re young and hot and have so many options, it feels like the options are endless so they just leave some really great things on the table. To be fair to this woman, all I saw her asking for here is that a man be in shape and attentive. But the harsh reality is that when you’re a 38 year old woman, you’re way past your prime in terms of relationships. Men are right there at thei…

So women just come up to me a lot for random shit and start talking to me. Women are always touching me for no real reason. Just like oh there’s your hand on my chest/bicep/stomach. If they’re younger they’ll get awkward and tongue tied a lot. Sometimes they’ll get really aggressive, like they’ll get like two inches away from my face and grab more aggressively. That’s mostly when it’s in a social setting and when it’s women who are fat and/or very drunk. I work in a bar so I get my crotch grabbe…

Im pretty sure I fall into this category. I get a lot of attention from women. Like a lot. Not too many dates though. Almost none in fact. That’s the short answer. I can elaborate if need be.

I don’t know about society crumbling. But I think the fantasy is that the women who rejected them will suffer when they’re stuck in a dating pool where women significantly outnumber men and they’re in much lower demand. I guess it depends on how many guys fall into this “incel” type category as far as whether this is plausible or not. But I think the biggest driving factor is that they don’t really spend a lot of time around young women and don’t really have a lot of empathy for them. They proba…

Could you elaborate on that a little? I’m not quite sure I understand what you mean. Are you saying that basically an alpha just wouldn’t ever end up in that situation? Cause I would have to disagree with you on that.

True but say an alpha gets with a girl and is all about her but then she starts wanting to settle down and values being taken care of financially over being with someone she’s attracted to. So she goes and finds some betabux. Is maybe it’s all well and good for the alpha dude and he just moves on to the next one. But maybe he still just wants to stay with the same girl but he’s left out in the cold while the girl he wants is off with beta dude. Doesnt that suck for the alpha guy too? Also, I rea…

/r/PurplePillDebate18/12/20 06:09 AM
1

Yeah I don’t agree with OPs point at all. I just feel like it’s a cop out to say “my needs aren’t being met” in that situation. A blow job every morning isn’t a need. Neither is anal. If you walk away from an otherwise good relationship because they don’t want to do anal or whatever then you’re a fool in my opinion. That’s all I’m saying.

a lot of women are far too sensitive to be touched anywhere sexual for 10 minutes or so after orgasm One time I had a girl stop me really abruptly when I was going down on her cuz she said she was about to cum. I always thought it was weird and wondered if I did something wrong. But this would be a much more palatable explanation for my ego if she didn’t want to cum yet cuz she would be too sensitive to have sex afterward. I never really had the chance to ask her about it so I’ve always wondered…

no one is forcing you to stay in a relationship if your sexuak needs aren’t met I see this thrown around a lot and I’m not really sure what it means. Like does the guy in your example really need anal every Friday night and blowjobs every day before work? No. If that’s what you think you need for then you have serious issues and that’s a problem for you to work on. I saw a comment on FDS about how she wouldn’t even entertain the notion of dating a guy if their penis was under 8 inches. It’s like…

I think you’re more or less right but maybe a little too harsh. I think it’s mostly just people trying to justify their own choices. No one on here knows their situation so they can embellish and distort things without anyone being able to disprove it.

Well if she would deep down rather be with someone else that’s more attractive then it does matter. If she’s going to be flirting with, thinking about or even having a sort of emotional affairs (if you believe that’s a thing) with other, more attractive guys then yeah it matters a lot. Especially if she’s going to be cold and distant towards you because of this. I’m not saying this is the norm, it may be very uncommon as far as I know, but I know this kind of thing does happen. So I don’t really…
/r/PurplePillDebate07/12/20 12:37 AM

Oh I guess I got my comments mixed up. Someone else had mentioned the high likelihood of them turning to drugs. And I know the two girls I was with are most definitely in the process of fucking up their health. So I might be projecting a little.
/r/PurplePillDebate03/12/20 05:53 AM
1

Yeah I kind of see all that happening now. I guess what I’m getting at is like what do these girls lives look like in their 40s and 50s? They have limited career prospects, they’ve ruined their health and all the single men their age are embittered from being sidelined in favor of clout for so many years. It’s just hard for me to wrap my brain around the kind of lifestyle they’ll end up with but it seems like a special kind of hell.
/r/PurplePillDebate03/12/20 02:23 AM
2

Yeah I think the drug use thing is big or drinking. Both the girls I talked about basically went to getting drunk every single night after we split. Getting drunk every single night will fuck your life up in a hurry. Harder drugs will do it faster. Also, neither one was a heavy social media user when we started dating. So that’s kinda what really makes me depressed about it is that I feel like it’s just such a huge social trend that there’s really no way to avoid it.

I work out pretty obsessively work as many hours as I can and I put a lot of effort into my appearance. It works ok.

Yeah, I think it’s kind of a mixed bag over there. Some commenters seem to just be genuinely sick of having bad experiences with men. Some are just bitter and unrealistic. All of them seem to have trouble accepting responsibility for their choice in men though.

I could be missing something but it sounds like what you’re saying is totally consistent with the OP. They’re saying social media presents the illusion of endless options but there aren’t actually. So if social media presents the illusion of unlimited male partners but it’s really just endless opportunities for casual sex isn’t your point consistent with the original one? For the record, I agree with both points and my social life is an absolute joke, so I’m in no place to criticize others ideas…

You will definitely have the power. Same with men who follow TRP. But youre basically doing adopting a my way or the highway kind of approach. You’re playing games with the other persons emotions. Which still leaves you vulnerable to getting screwed over. You could meet the greatest guy/girl in the world and fuck it up because you wouldn’t take a chance. You’ll probably lose the respect of a lot of your friends and family. So it doesn’t really seem worth it. Just my personal take based on my exp…

Like, she was blacked out and I was trying to get her back to the room and she ran up to a bunch of dudes and told them I was a stranger who just raped her. So then people called the cops and the cops came and that was that. Luckily I managed to get out of the situation without any charges or reports being filed. It still sucks though to be betrayed like that by someone you love. But I'm trying to stay positive just cause it could have been so much worse.

No, the concept of consent is a pretty simple one. Literally at no point ever did anyone talk to me and my brother about the importance of consent, it's just kind of obvious. This assumption that men are just generally rapists by default is ridiculous.

The problem is the idea that you have to actually take deliberate action to teach your boys that rape and sexual assault are wrong. Lead by example and display a healthy respect for women, and they will be able to figure out boundaries for themselves. Of course, it's much more fun to get on a moral high horse and preach about sexual assault. But it's also totally inneffective and obnoxious.

Equal parenting I think is huge even for men who arent parents.

Well, I looked up the penalty for slander, and you are right, that would not be enough. However, no one died so no murder was committed so I don't think anyone can be charged for murder. However, accessory to attempted murder sounds like a slam dunk assuming a fair interpretation of the law. Of course, she probably won't be charged with anything, she'll probably be made out to be a victim of the situation. The thing to keep in mind here, is that this was a totally heinous act committed by four m…

True, but to me, that doesn't absolve the people actually committing the violence. As the last line of the article states: they took it upon themselves to punish this guy for something that he allegedly did. I still think the girlfriend should be charged with slander and receive the maximum penalty considering the circumstances. I might even say she was an accessory to attempted murder. But I think paving the way for a violent offense still isn't quite as bad as the people who actually commit it…

I'm not saying what anyone should believe, but the fact is the title states that he went to jail for overlaying child support, which is just not true. He went to jail because of a legislative injustice. It's still fucked up, but that title just isn't accurate.

Yeah, I agree with all of that. I said it was unfair. I'm just saying that I think the severity of the sentence was because he walked out on the judge. I can't really blame him since it's a pretty fucked up situation. But the title was definitely a little misleading.

He was all paid up, but then he was ordered to pay his ex-wife's attorney fees at which point he walked out of the court without being dismissed. Still pretty unfair on both accounts, but he most certainly did not go to jail for the money he owed, he went to jail for disrespecting a judge.

That's all true, but the main point still stands which is that there are instances where men who can totally afford their child support and lie and say that they can't.

Not according to the FBI.

So it shows a little more than 50 out of every 100,000, compared to around 6 per 100,000 for murder.

There was no physical harm done. With crimes like this, the harm is purely psychological. The guy forcing the issue and photographing it is definitely a bigger part. This is of course on the assumption that it was all his idea and he was forcing his wife to do it. It said he took a deal to get another charge dropped, so that could well have been a domestic violence charge. Not saying that's the case for sure, but the article was just a little too thin to warrant my outrage. Especially since the …

See, I don't think so. If one person is orchestrating the crime, and the other person is being coerced to comply, the person who had the idea should pay a harsher penalty. If a parent is abusing a child, the other parent might have some fault if they just turn a blind eye and let it happen, but the blame should not land equally.

I hate to play devils advocate here, but it doesn't say anything about his wife coercing the girl, which kind of implies that he was coercing both of them.

Exactly. There's a lot of (mostly middle aged or older) people who still think of feminism as the feminism of old, but are appalled by a lot of the current trends in feminism. Of course all those people see the third wave type feminism as "not real feminism," so you really alienate those people by just bashing feminism in a blanket statement. That's why I think it's rely important to distinguish exactly who you're talking about when you talk about feminism.

And the women who grew up with this shit push it on their daughters like it's a religion. I know a woman who was literally outraged that her ex-husband told their 7 year old daughter that the princesses at Disneyland weren't actually real, and of course every other woman at the table was equally shocked and horrified. I guess we'd better also make sure the kids don't find out singing lions aren't real either.

You said women want a wedding, not a marriage, but that's. It always true. Any women with debt will always want a marriage. Any single mother will also probably want a marriage. Chris Rock said it in the same standup from the article, what women want is "everything," and in today's culture any man who won't bend over backwards to deliver it isn't a "real man."

Well, I don't have kids but my mom is an elementary school teacher and I volunteer there so I've seen my fair share of kids. I think it effects little girls pretty dramatically too, having seen some girls without male role models. I even knew a girl who was 6 or 7 and her dad wasn't I. The picture and she literally thought that she had no father, as in her mother conceived and birthed her with no male involved. I think that's pretty messed up. But it's not hard to see why it's so common when pre…

In all fairness, I think fraternities in general do a lot of stuff they're not supposed to that can get them suspended. I had a buddy that used to do various promotional work around campus parties, and the feats wouldn't even allow him to take pictures or anything. The universities always turn a blind eye to what's going on there (in terms of hazing, drinking drugs, etc), but when it's caught on tape, I think they're kind if obligated to take action.

Actually, assuming home equity isn't counted in savings, I'm surprised that number isn't higher. A lot of people just get a big house and a nice car and think they don't need savings cause those are "investments"

Well, I'll take your word for it because I know very little about English politics and it seems like you do. But I know from my experience that in America, there are plenty of well to do white men who are sort of unintentionally supportive of nonsense social justice movements without really understanding what those movements are like. So just his age alone doesn't mean much.

Yeah, you're probably right about that. But you and I also both know that if this were a 20 year old man with an 11 year old girl, things would have turned out very differently as well.

Well, that's kind if an issue in and of itself. A lot of older men that are just kind of going about their business in their careers just hear about these social justice movements and assume that they are movements for progress, when in fact they are just exploiting rhetoric under the guise of fighting for equality.

It's not even benefiting women anymore, it's just shitting on both sides. Men: Generally rapists. If you're a man, you'd better shoulder the guilt for every single rape. Women: Rapists are around every corner. You'd better never step outside your comfort zone or relax at all or you will probably be raped. You should probably just find a safe space to go blog about rape. Honestly, sounds pretty terrible to me on both sides. The part about severely punishing alleged rapists outside the justice sys…

This is so true, and I think crapshoot is the perfect metaphor cause the odds are pretty stacked against you. The kid is coming from a broken home and with only a mother, they are constantly told how wonderful they are under any circumstances. It's really not setting them up for success.

I think part of it is that more and more selfish women are just latching onto the cause so they can dk whatever they want and just call it feminism.

Yeah, I think a lot of us understand where you are coming from. I used to be big into social justice when I was in high school.

I feel the same way. It's kinda hard for me to hate her though cause I grew up watching her. But she really isn't qualified to speak on the issues she's speaking on, and she's really missing the mark on equality.

I once had a manager at work complain that it was sexism (against women) that a make employee was told he couldn't wear shorts. Her assertion was that he was only being told this because he was her employee and she was a woman. When in reality, sometimes you just can't fucking wear shorts to work.

True, but back to the original point, for a student working for the university, even if you have the money, there's nothing you can do. You can't even bring it to trial. Which is why I was saying it's probably the same for this poor guy in the rape case.

Well, that's somewhat true, but I know for a fact that at the end of the day, it really just comes down to a jury and you just need a majority vote. I served on a jury for wrongful termination where there really was like no evidence whatsoever in favor of plantif, and 2 people still voted in his favor. Also, it's not like a criminal trial where the burden of proof is on the accuser. It's just which side seems more likely.

I was an RA at UC Santa Barbara. I was put on probation because I was behind schedule putting on events in my dorm. I ended up getting all my events in and then some with attendance rates much higher than average, but I was still fired.

That's true, but it's also illegal to fire someone for a fraudulent reason. If you fire them because you don't like them, but then claim it's because of job performance (which is usually the case), then I believe that is illegal.

I absolutely agree. But they were also saying in the article that the penalty was too harsh for just sleeping with a 17 year old(compared it to more lenient drunk driving penalties, etc.). But she wasn't just an adult sleeping with a 17 year old, she was totally betraying the trust that was given to her by the parents who sent their kids to that school. I guess that's a little bit of a tangent, but I feel like it needs to be said.

Yeah, the optimist in me hopes that the anti-man attitudes that are so pervasive at the moment will just be a societal phase. I feel like we will either revert to the previous status quo where men hold all the responsibility but also all the power, or we will start to focus on equality for genders among all societal roles.

Yeah, and I am wondering how many of us, like OP, used to support feminist ideas until they got so crazy. I feel like the ideas in this forum will end up pretty mainstream soon since the more people I talk to who always have considered themselves feminists, I seem to find more and more people who strongly disagree with the direction that feminism is going.

Well, you have a point about her pretending that the man is the one attacking her. If you look you'll see that someone made that point in a comment below and I conceded that. However, I still think that most of the time a woman hits a man, it's more to prove a point that to actually try to attack someone. I've had women hit me when they were pissed more than a few times (it's kind of just what they do), and I know if I had actually hit them back, that would have been way over the top. I feel lik…

Yeah, and one thing that I'm certain of is that most women who would attack a man (or anyone) like that probably don't give a flying fuck about gender equality... until the cops come and they can use the cause as an excuse so they can get out of trouble, and probably further attack the guy they already attacked. Fuck those people. Their bullshit leads like things to the unmitigated jackassery you see in the 3rd wave feminist movement, a movement that completely ignores things such as: -women in …

Dude, come on, you're kind of exaggerating my words a little I think. I said that there are extenuating circumstances and keep in mind that this statement: Only in extremely rare cases (and I mean extremely) is a woman so aggressive that you have to actually hit them. Does imply that if a woman is aggressive enough (like in the situation you described), it justifies hitting back. That video of that dude that hits the obnoxious chick on the subway, for example, is one of those times, but I think …
/r/MensRights14/11/14 09:29 PM

What is? The only point I'm trying to make is that you shouldn't hit someone if it isn't necessary. I do admit that you have the right to hit someone, man or woman, if they attack you, but that doesn't mean it's necessary.
/r/MensRights14/11/14 06:12 PM

That is all true, and I would say those fall into the extenuating circumstances I was talking about. Also, I'm really not all that concerned with the female attackers safety. She rolled those dice and she has to live with the consequences. I'm just saying, if someone attacks you, it doesn't give you free reign to unleash more violence than necessary to deter the attacker. Of course depending on the circumstances, the amount required varies tremendously.
/r/MensRights14/11/14 06:06 PM

I think there's one major point that always gets overlooked here. It is almost never actually necessary for a man to hit a woman, even for self defense, because our upper body strength will usually allow us to detain them without actually striking them. If they won't stop hitting you, you just grab their arms and there's nothing they can do. If they start kicking you, then you maybe push them away. Only in extremely rare cases (and I mean extremely) is a woman so aggressive that you have to actu…
