| – | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I don't see how I'm putting him down? I love my husband very much and think he's an intelligent and gifted man. He is very socially awkward and bad with people but then so am I. I think that helps us connect if anything. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/23 09:26 PM |
| 1 | 'The Best For The Child', Possible Solutions Moving ForwardIt's not growing up without a father, it's growing up in poverty. Kids do just as well with single mothers and single fathers and LGBTQ parents when the parents are not impoverished. If you really wanted to help children you would increase social programs that help families with children in poverty and in high crime areas. You also can't solve all off societies social problems. There is a fine line between good and evil. Even imperfect people should be allowed to be parents as long as they are n… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/23 09:23 PM |

| 2 | Is this whole 'stay in your lane' ideology in dating, healthy and fair, or the opposite?(hypothetically because I'm married with children) I'm a white woman and I only like asian men. I am diagnosed autistic and I prefer men not to be neurotypical but I also wouldn't date a man who is on disability and doesn't have a job even if I'm not employed. If he's autistic he has to be very high functioning and capable. I'm sorry if that bothers people. I personally want a man to take care of me and make me feel safe. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/23 09:13 PM |

| – | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I wouldn't call it an obsession. The conversation probably comes up a few times a year if that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/23 08:45 PM |
| – | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.Studies show that women are attracted to men around the same age as them, while men continue to chase 22 year olds (who usually don't want them) so this is false. A 55 year old woman wants a middle aged or slightly old man. Men also on average get less attractive to younger women as they age. We are not talking the top 1% of earners or celebrities, but then the same goes for women in that category because if they want a toy boy they usually get one. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/23 08:42 PM |
| – | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I wouldn't say he was 'in love'. To me love denotes a real relationship. The whole thing is a fantasy based in the past. She's around 40 now and married and isn't the same person. I disagree. I know the difference between casual sex and a relationship. A man just has to be attractive enough for me. I don't compare men I am attracted to even if I can see that another is more conventionally attractive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/09/23 08:40 PM |

| 1 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I have definitely been with men taller than my husband. I don't really care as long as a man is taller than me. I have been with some very nice looking men who are tall and muscular. They haven't shaped my standards for romantic relationships because there was nothing there beyond sex and I knew that from the beginning. I have also hooked up with men who look way worse than my husband. The worst one was a man who lied to me about his age. I am only into Asians and sometimes they have smoother an… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 02:00 AM |
| 2 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I think by 'pure love' he means that feeling you get when you are young and naive and you think everything is going to be a bed of roses because of that person. As an adult, I don't think that's realistic. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:50 AM |
| -3 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.Most men fantasize about other women. Hell women even when they are married check out men who they find good looking. It is what it is. This woman would be almost 40 now with a life of her own. It's not like he's actually going to get with her or like she's going to change the outcome of my marriage. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:48 AM |
| 1 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I don't think my husband is a loser. He is socially awkward, but then I am too. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:45 AM |
| 7 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.Another thing, how women feel about their bodies effects their sex drive. My body turns me off. I don't like it. I don't like the size of my boobs and they make me feel repulsive. Women tend to feel worse about their bodies after having kids. A woman's sex drive varies so much based upon so many factors, even if she finds a man physically attractive. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:40 AM |
| 3 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.Women have lower sex drives than men and lower expectations of sex in general. Having children and having adult responsibilities amplifies this fact tremendously. Most women are content not to orgasm, but men demand it and feel inadequate when they don't because they have been convinced by porn that women are naturally super horny and super orgasmic and have to behave like that if they like you. Men also project their own desire to finish sex with an orgasm onto women. I never say no to my husba… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:38 AM |

| 2 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.You talked about being an incel Most women have been in relationships in the past. If you are happy enough with your life though, who am I to judge? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:16 AM |
| 1 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.You sound way too idealistic to me. Life is not a Disney movie and you are not a prince. There will be difficult times and things you dislike about any partner. And I definitely feel like I have an emotional bond with my husband, much, much moreso than with any other man I have had. I think it's because we have had children together. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:15 AM |
| 3 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.It seems like you are holding onto this perfect fairytale idea of love, still and you can't get over your own insecurities. I don't care if a man compares me to other women if the end result is still the same as it would be if he didn't. And let's be fair, men do that even if they don't say that's what they are doing. I think you need to understand that you are holding yourself back because of this insecurity you have. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:06 AM |
| 3 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I have been with men where that has happened and I moved on from them maybe after a few weeks. It all just feels pointless now. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 01:03 AM |

| 0 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.Interesting. I think I agree with a lot of what you are saying. The part about my husband and men in general is really interesting. You seem very insightful. If that's the case though, then why is being an alpha widow a bad thing? My husband is a really good provider financially and he's an excellent handy man, all the men I was with before him were broke with absolutely no drive or ambition or they were still students. Let's say god forbid something awful happened and I dated again, would it be… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:57 AM |

| 1 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I don't know what's significant about it. He was in highschool, it was 20 years ago. I didn't even know him then. If he wants to fantasize about it, that's up to him. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:47 AM |
| 1 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.It's not significant. It's just a silly highschool crush that he seems to still be idealizing. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:44 AM |
| 4 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I have had sex with many men I haven't developed feelings for. To be honest, the only man I can say I have ever loved is my husband because we have children together. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:41 AM |
| 3 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.In my experience | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:36 AM |
| 2 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.That's not true Women don't compare men like that. Either he meets their standards or he doesn't. It also doesn't matter how physically attractive a man is. A man just has to be physically attractive enough, there are other things that are more important, like I don't know, sharing a life together, having children, supporting that person when they are vulnerable and vice versa. I can't say I have ever had deep feelings for a hookup partner because nothing was shared beyond sex. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:36 AM |
| 4 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.Sorry but you are wrong I have had a lot of hookup partners. I am not hung up on them at all and any feelings I did have were fleeting. If there is no expectation of a romantic relationship I simply will not get emotionally attached. I might become infatuated with someone for a few weeks but it burns out quickly. On the other hand I am very emotionally attached to my husband because of everything we have been through together. I'm of the opinion that you can't generally say you love someone unti… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:31 AM |

| 2 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I mean he's not psychotic, he doesn't bring it up very often. I have however noticed that he has always been emotionally guarded with me, despite the fact we have been together for years and have 3 children together and he seems to have this fear of vulnerability. It's as if he's subconsciously afraid of his own feelings. I have met numerous men like this and it seems to be more common in men. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:13 AM |

| 3 | Men are projecting the whole 'alpha widow' thing.I can't think of one ex I am still interested in or hung up on. Most women I know feel the same. You say hook up, most people, if they are just hooking up and nothing more, do not become emotionally invested in that person. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/09/23 12:07 AM |

| 1 | 50-50 doesn't work because men actually have to do more than the woman in order for the relationship to surviveI agree with a lot of what you said. However I think it's unfair to expect any partner or spouse who works to do 90% of the chores unless the other is sick. My husband would live in an undecorated pigsty with minimal furniture if he was on his own. Every time he watches the kids I have more work to do because everything gets really dirty and disgusting. He will give them full cans and bottles of coke to stop them complaining and because they are only 2 and 4 they will spill it everywhere. Then t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/08/23 12:56 PM |
| 1 | What causes dead bead bedrooms in your opinion ? and are they preventable ?Caring for babies and very young children Women get insecure about their bodies as they have children and age and it kills their sex drive Women go through menopause and it kills their sex drive People work long hours and they are tired Both parties work and men don't always help out around the house. Even if the woman is a SAHM it's a job 24/7 to look after kids and make sure the house is clean. Breastfeeding and menopause can effect sex drive | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/08/23 12:49 PM |

| 1 | This is all my knowledge from dozens of Hinge dates I've been on. I wish I could have told my younger self this.Please don't take pictures of you hanging out with your friends at bars. Women don't know which one you are and it sends the message "we are a package deal and you get all of us". | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/08/23 12:41 PM |

| 3 | Why don’t men just do what women do?They do. They develop hobbies and interests and they throw themselves into their jobs. That doesn't stop a person desiring a romantic partner and feeling lonely. You can also speak for yourself. I have never had a solid group of female friends. When I haven't been in a relationship or my husband is working away it's just been me or me and my children spending weeks upon weeks alone not seeing to or talking to anyone who isn't online or isn't a family member passing by me in the same house.

| 1 | how important is oral / fore play for you as a woman in terms of how much you like a man?I'll go down on a man and perform it on him, but I don't like receiving. I personally just think it's gross to have a mouth or fingers down there. I don't care about having an orgasm. I don't need one to be satisfied. I think I'm unusual sexually. When I have sex I completely focus on the man and I'm very passive. I don't like to feel like I'm participating in it. It almost feels like I'm so heterosexual that I'm kind of sexually grossed out by my own body, if that makes sense and it's all about… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/08/23 12:35 AM |
| 3 | How do red pillers explain the average guy being in a relationship?The average guy is with an average woman and they can connect with her on some level. Red pillers don't want average women. They want this image of a woman that they have built and analyzed in their heads. They're usually awkward, pessimistic men with OCD tendencies and this translates into their obsession with women being conventionally physically attractive and everything else they want her to be, regardless of who they are and what they bring to a relationship.

| 1 | Expecting women have a low body count is hypocriticalTheoretically you can get leg lengthening surgery. You explained the apparent reasons behind obesity but you didn't disprove my point. Losing weight and keeping it off in an obesogenic environment is very difficult, if it wasn't we wouldn't have a global obesity crisis that's only getting worse every year. There are now more obese people worldwide then there are starving people. Congratulations, you are not an attractive person. Most people aren't hot.

| 1 | Expecting women have a low body count is hypocriticalI mean you can get leg surgery, which of course I wouldn't expect anyone to do. It's hard to lose weight and keep it off. Only 5% of obese people who lose weight keep it off after 5 years. You obviously don't understand the biological and genetic mechanism that drives people to eat enough to get fat. I could easily turn it around and claim that you don't have the discipline to get a good job and then the drive and will to get leg surgery. It's nonsense.

| 1 | What do you think is at the root of the “Femcel” phenomenon?I feel exactly the same way. I have been with my husband for around a decade. We have 3 children. I love my husband but he's not an emotionally intelligent guy and he's a disaster with people. Think Daniel Lord levels of disaster (hiding in my room on YouTube) He was definitely the best I could do.

| 6 | What do you think is at the root of the “Femcel” phenomenon?Insecurity and avoidant behavior. Negative thinking. People say that women can't be femcels but I disagree, it just happens differently. A woman can be too insecure and negative to enjoy an intimate and romantic relationship with a man and be unable to help herself. A woman can be avoidant beyond her own control. Femcels are often afraid of men. They often have low self esteem or they are hyper aware of their own shortcomings and so they distance themselves from men. Many also fear violence from… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/08/23 10:01 PM |

The risk of some complications are slightly higher, but they are very far from absolute. Our ancestors had to deal with far worse health than we did.

If you are fat in some parts of Africa, Bangladesh or in North Korea you are considered attractive and desirable. Prostitutes in Bangladesh will inject themselves with steroid medication just to gain weight because it brings them more business. Obesogenic genes exist because of evolution.

I have been attracted to non autistic men physically but it's never worked out. It's like we are on two different planets.

On paper it's very possible but in practice if someone is obesity prone having the willpower to not only lose weight but then keep it off long term is extremely difficult for most people.
