| – | I am exhausted by the fake empathy and invalidation I sometimes experienceIt's better than what you're going to get here. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/06/26 12:35 PM |
| 17 | Does anyone care that dating is better now for women?Trust me when I say that putting any semblance of effort into your dating app profile as a man makes little to no difference for the majority. There’s too much competition for too few spots. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/06/26 03:31 PM |
| 5 | Red Pill men trust their self-motivated inccorrect observations of women more than women's own explanations.It's more common than you might think in a looks-based dating economy. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/06/26 05:51 PM |
| 4 | Red Pill men trust their self-motivated inccorrect observations of women more than women's own explanations.Despite in-group biases, many women are not as wonderful as you might think. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 13/06/26 05:35 PM |
| – | People Should Be Split Up Into Uggos and NormalsBoth domains bleed into each other more and more today. Most people are dating via online platforms and dating apps than any other method. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/26 11:17 AM |
| – | People Should Be Split Up Into Uggos and NormalsBecause dating and romance have become gamified industries? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/26 10:08 AM |
| – | "Not all men" is barely even true and women have good reason to be wary of dating menKeep in mind that this is a survey of men who were recently sexually active. Given the declining rates of partnership and sexual activity among younger (and arguably less aggressive) men, it's not entirely surprising that the remnants of such a group are more liable to exercise such behaviors. I also want to note that these behaviors are not and should not be characterized as unique to men. I have been 'Gradually pushed verbally or physically until [a woman] got what [she] wanted' in the past se… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/06/26 11:32 AM |
| 5 | Solo travel is a completely different experience for average men and womenIf you haven’t, give it a try. Talk to your roommates. Attend the social events. Have random chats with people you meet at a bar or café. It’s all there if you’re willing to break the ice. As a guy, I’ve never experienced what your post talks about. And I’m a seasoned traveler. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/06/26 09:29 PM |
| – | Women Do Not Have “Dating Issues.” Only Men do. For some reason Pretending its anywhere EqualThat is not true. I have helped men who were roofied before. I have warned both men and women of such a possibility regardless of gender because it happens to both genders. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/05/26 05:16 PM |
| – | It's 2026. Men need to stop catering to feminist efforts and start looking after themselves.Professional organizations focused on mentoring young men would be a good start. However, many of these were dismantled or fell out of favor whether it was due to fears of gendered power imbalances or sexist behaviors. While some of these concerns are justified, there is a serious lack of mentorship available to men nowadays that should be re-instituted. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/05/26 04:17 PM |
| 2 | Women Keep Bringing Up Rape to Shut Down Male ConcernsIt’s because emotional and psychological wounds are invisible. They are difficult to reveal. Mental abuse does not standout in the same way as a black eye or a pool of blood. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/26 08:50 AM |
| 6 | What would you call the emotional male monologues on this sub and why?I would say it’s blowing off steam. You hardly see men talking about these sorts of topics in real life, so letting out pent-up emotions about dating and women online is messy and offensive to some but cathartic and validating to others. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/26 06:29 AM |
| 5 | Do Women Actually Believe Men's Dating Struggles Are Real?And yet you’ll have better chances looking there than here. That’s all I’ll say. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/04/26 05:19 PM |
| 8 | Do Women Actually Believe Men's Dating Struggles Are Real?Trying to find solutions on a debate forum like this, where everybody is entrenched in their own position, is about the worst thing you could do. Don’t expect sympathy here. You have to find it in real life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/04/26 05:10 PM |
| 3 | Do Women Actually Believe Men's Dating Struggles Are Real?Because women do not see themselves as a structural cause of this issue. However, it’s more conventionally acceptable to say that men cause the structural problems for women. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/04/26 04:57 PM |
| – | Future relationships especially amongst Gen Z are doomedAnd yet all men are somehow the problem. Fascinating. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/04/26 09:42 PM |
| – | If you don’t go to clubs/bars you can’t say you want to get women/being introverted is a choiceWhatever helps you convince yourself. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/04/26 09:34 PM |
| – | If you don’t go to clubs/bars you can’t say you want to get women/being introverted is a choice“Leave women alone” has been the dominant cultural narrative for the last 15 years. It is better and safer to assume that any subjective signal is not worth the risk of being ostracized in a public environment. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/04/26 09:17 PM |
| – | If you don’t go to clubs/bars you can’t say you want to get women/being introverted is a choiceMost women do not want to converse with strangers while they’re out and about. So it’s been told. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/04/26 09:02 PM |
| 6 | Why do you think women should change anything when they are not the ones complaining about dating?Most of the women on this sub, in fairness, are already married or coupled up. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/04/26 12:30 PM |
| 7 | What do you feel like hinders you most in dating?Neurodivergence and a lack of grace for social deficiencies. In a social-media driven world, one mistake means someone else is ready to take your place in the prospective suitor conga line. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/04/26 08:26 AM |
| 6 | Men are coping too much about women who don't desire themMany, many other things besides dating where you can actually see the rewards of the effort you put in. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/04/26 08:25 PM |
| 3 | Men don’t care about MenThe latter. However, I do not believe that a fair, gender neutral society can or will exist under our current economic paradigm. Capitalism and competition always require that there are losers. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/04/26 02:52 PM |
| 0 | Men don’t care about MenThe dirty secret of it all is that, despite crowing about the contrary, it IS a zero-sum game. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/04/26 09:40 AM |
| 1 | Men don’t care about MenGee a population of people primed tonthink of men as the problem are also being paid to "help" them. There's a large amount of variation here for which therapists / psychologists you're seeking out as well as the issues they can help you deal with. While I have had a female therapist who has belittled the male experience and psychology, I have also had others who have not. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/04/26 09:36 AM |
| 2 | Men's contribution to society isn't a dating argument.It cuts both ways. Men sometimes take credit for collective competence, women sometimes take credit for collective suffering. I occasionally see posts from women about “how we’ve suffered for thousands of years because of men” as if they were present for every iota of it and remain in constant communion with their eternally-agonized female ancestors. In the end, both want recognition but through flawed means. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/04/26 06:32 AM |
| 3 | Men should be more radicalised and actively work against women's interests.Apathy. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/03/26 07:48 PM |
| 7 | Why are yall downvoting women saying they love their husbands?Yes. I think a good portion of the women here enjoy punching down. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/03/26 04:44 AM |
| 1 | CMV: “Join Hobbies” and “Expand Your Social Circle” Are very low-ROI Dating Strategies for Most Average MenYou'll forgive me if I don't think that the bread-making demographic is likely to be full of singles or social butterflies. And in most adult classes I've taken, rarely do people want to get drinks or socialize outside of those environments. What's more, I think you and other women sorely underestimate how little social grace men are given in these situations nowadays and ones similar to it. Men do not have limitless social capital today that they can expend willy-nilly. I could pull up any rang… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/02/26 03:08 PM |
| 3 | CMV: “Join Hobbies” and “Expand Your Social Circle” Are very low-ROI Dating Strategies for Most Average MenThat doesn't sound like the sort of place where one can go and meet others in a capacity beyond the hobby. No one goes to a bread-making class to get hit on. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/02/26 02:49 PM |
| 5 | CMV: “Join Hobbies” and “Expand Your Social Circle” Are very low-ROI Dating Strategies for Most Average MenWe should actively cut out OLD and find friends and hobbies and meet through our jobs and friends There's no way I would ever risk my job or my friend circle for a relationship nowadays. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/02/26 07:50 PM |
| 1 | Myron Gaines is right that Selective Service creates an unfair responsiblity balanceYou can make the argument that the sorts of unconventional wars that we’re moving towards as a species do not require physical fortitude, and I don’t buy your point that women naturally lack mental fortitude, either. The next domain of war is cyberspace - meaning that weaponry is extending towards computers (e.g. Stuxnet) as well as remote devices such as drones. Men will still be needed (and drafted) for front-line roles, but also for this new domain - as should women, if the draft is kept. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/02/26 05:07 PM |
| 2 | What are the problems with dating apps?I would like to see these too skinny, skinflint, introverted and maybe even some of the short ones… you think they are not on dating apps at all? Behavior that allows this type to not quit apps because they don't get any attention or dates. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/26 12:04 PM |
| 2 | What are the problems with dating apps?No; I’m just letting you know my perspective as a man no longer on apps because it doesn’t reward the type of behavior you’re looking for. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/26 10:49 AM |
| 3 | What are the problems with dating apps?Apps don’t reward authenticity for men. A visually-based platform means that pictures matter more than anything, and you’re competing with countless other men to show that you’re better, hotter, fitter, and more interesting to the women sorting through you like some meat catalog. And even if you do somehow get a match, appearances must be kept up to actually go from screen to in-person meetup. You’re usually not getting there by not having some measure of extraversion and social/visual appeal. Y… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/02/26 06:44 AM |
| 3 | How Can We Hold Space for Male Victims of Violence While Acknowledging Women’s Safety Concerns in Dating?And women can't be violent, apparently. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/02/26 11:34 AM |
| 3 | The term "ran-though" needs to end.You’ve never heard of the term “fuckboy” before? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 17/02/26 06:19 AM |
| 4 | GenZ women's "icks" are just a manifestation of their innate preference for rigid gender roles and archetypes.Yes, exactly. If a woman is going to get the 'ick' because of what I order at a bar or a certain phrase I like to use in conversation, then let them. Who would want that sort of person around anyways to endlessly needle you over your mannerisms? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/02/26 08:04 PM |
| – | Generally speaking, men never get to reveal "relationship skills" to women. They get filtered out long before that. This drives a lot of male romantic loneliness.It is a term that was originally coined to describe the management of emotions in certain workplace environments where only certain feelings were deemed professionally appropriate. When people describe such 'work' as 'unpaid' within the context of a marriage or a relationship, then that indicates how out-of-place it is within such discussions. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/02/26 12:05 PM |
| 1 | A male's choice to oppress women is rooted in their fear of women's social, emotional, & intellectual power.Women are also part of rich people. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/02/26 07:02 AM |
| 7 | What do you wish women would understand about dating women?It's a really poor term to transplant from a similar-yet-different context of workplace relationships. Seeing some women contextualize it as 'unpaid labor', as if a romantic relationship is a series of economic transactions, only proves this. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/01/26 08:06 PM |
| 7 | What do you wish women would understand about dating women?I wouldn’t quite say that. I have had women friends who have supported me before, and - as mentioned - there are men out there who fit their description. But I’ve learned over time that certain friends and SOs cant or won’t provide that support, which - as I originally said - makes debates like that over ‘man keeping’ and ‘emotional labor’ ironic for me. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/01/26 01:36 PM |
| 12 | What do you wish women would understand about dating women?The core of these women's complaints is that there is an imbalance in the emotional and social work that they have to do for their male partners, who do not reciprocate it or make enough changes in their behavior to correct it. As I said before, there are instances where this is indeed true. However, these women frame the debate in a way that makes them seem like perfectly-functioning emotional automatons that do not at all need or rely on their male partners or the men in their lives for the sa… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/01/26 01:20 PM |
| 23 | What do you wish women would understand about dating women?I often find it ironic when a certain type of woman complains about emotional labor and 'mankeeping', which I don't doubt is true in some instances. But I find it ironic because, in some of my intimate or romantic relationships with women, they have created a lot of that same labor and have expected me or other men to fix it or co-regulate their emotions. I think the difference is that the sort of emotional messiness is tolerated with women by society, whereas with men, emotional messiness is tr… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/01/26 12:14 PM |
| 3 | Sought after men's behaviour is making it hard for normal women to get an LTRI think it’s safe to say that the rise of single-parent households disproportionately affects boys rather than girls in educational outcomes, alongside the lack of male teachers and role models. There are studies out there showing as well that boys are discriminated against through a gender grading bias, where they receive lower grades compared to girls. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/01/26 02:15 PM |
| – | Genuine question , what do men get out of this sub or subs similar to this.You’re asking men to think beyond and forget their own struggles because somewhere, someone inevitably has it worse than them. This is a shortcoming of intersectionality. No one wants to be told to suck it up and stop suffering because the metaphorical African children are starving. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/01/26 03:27 PM |
| 5 | Do you think you can actually Empathize and understand the points of menAs a man with mental illness, I appreciate your insight and sympathy here. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 16/01/26 05:11 PM |
| 1 | Nobody cares about men’s problems.Lots of people are on this sub to punch down on others and make themselves feel better. Away with this moral posturing. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/01/26 08:07 AM |
| 1 | Men don’t need empathy from women. They need compassionGiving advice, showing empathy, or at least listening to whatever I needed to vent about or get advice on. Not every man, of course, gave me compassion. I have had several in my life who belittled me or shamed me for what I was experiencing. But the ones that did were able to do so because they could in some way relate to my experiences. I unfortunately have not experienced that often with the women in my life. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/01/26 09:20 PM |
| 5 | The Orgasm Gap is real... but it has NOTHING to do with male selfishness.One builds skill and ability by having opportunities to practice. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/01/26 06:47 PM |
| 0 | Men don’t need empathy from women. They need compassionI would broadly tie compassion to men not feeling gaslit or made to feel bad, weak, or shameful about their struggles, problems, and emotions related to their struggles and problems. Because often when men open up, the responses – in my experience, mostly from the women in my life – have been complete silence at best and gaslighting at worst. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/01/26 06:42 PM |
| 1 | Women don’t need menSo long as we live in a socioeconomic system that requires a productive underclass of men, this will not happen. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/12/25 07:54 AM |
| 0 | Women don’t need menWorthiness exists on a set of values. Those values are not defined by nature, not by the universe, and certainly not consistently among human beings. When you see or experience suffering enough times, when you hear enough stories about children who are tortured and traumatized by their parents and caregivers, you can understand that living is not some miracle but instead an evolutionary speedbump in the universe. That's neither good or bad, but it's simply the way things are. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 10:56 PM |
| 1 | Women don’t need menThe universe does not possess a set of values. It is indifferent at best to our existence. Individuals have worth as they relate to other humans. But it is not inherent. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 10:19 PM |
| 9 | Women don’t need menSexlessness and virginity are convenient cudgels to shame men with by all parties. So long as that shaming tactic effective through the lens of 'punching up', it won't disappear as a social stigma. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 10:10 PM |
| 1 | Why doesn't the red pill community try advocating for men's issues IRL.It's a hasty generalization fallacy. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/12/25 07:09 PM |
| 6 | Why doesn't the red pill community try advocating for men's issues IRL.I would say the black pill perspective is that the decline can’t be enjoyed or worked with. Why bother? There isn’t a way to profit from the status quo, so giving up is the only option. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/12/25 04:33 PM |
| 4 | Slutcon - a training camp for learning how to flirt, etcIt’s because the perceived social costs for men learning and making mistakes in those settings has gone up in the last several decades between changing social norms, social media, online spaces, deteriorating mental health, and other factors. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 14/12/25 07:35 AM |
| 4 | Is dating in Europe via dating apps better for men?Northern European cultures are indeed more distant and less spontaneously social, and it leaks into dating culture. It’s very uncommon for people here to approach unless there’s a prior connection. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/11/25 06:38 AM |
| – | 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 anythingBecause there is no societal push for men in these roles like there has been for women in men’s traditional roles. Men will not go into these industries without collective support and funding from government-led initiatives. I am a male teacher. I had no support programs, mentors, role models, or recruitment opportunities to get into my career path. There are few male teachers my age because there is zero push for it - only talk. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/11/25 06:03 PM |
