| 2 | CMV: the fact that women complain about double standards when it comes to the number of past sexual partners reinforces the fact that men are not allowed to show insecurityWhy do you even try to date women? Sounds like you can’t stand them, in general. If you’re so insecure about being a woman’s consolation prize, then maybe don’t date women who make you feel this way. Plenty of women are serial monogamists, notwithstanding having had significant romantic or sexual experience with other men. If a woman is lukewarm towards you, move onto something a little more reciprocal, perhaps. Don’t chalk up a woman’s tepid feelings for you as purely being a function of her n-… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/06/20 05:22 PM |

| 2 | Apparently Homelessness is only a Problem if you are a Woman.Meant long read. Ah! I thought it may have been an expression I'd never heard before. Honestly though do you not think it is unlikely for a woman to penetrate a man? Yes. The original definition of rape would have made it impossible for a woman to be found guilty of the crime, but it also made it impossible for a male who forcibly penetrated another male anally to be found guilty of the crime. It was insufficient to provide equitable justice to victims of sexual assaults which didn't fall into o… | /r/MensRights | 29/03/17 12:10 PM |
| 2 | Apparently Homelessness is only a Problem if you are a Woman.The victim does need to be penetrated, but not just vaginally, or anally. Being orally penetrated by a 'sex organ' counts, too. A penis need not be the only culpable appendage, when it comes to vaginal or anal penetration, which can explicitly be done with any body part, or object. There is another provision in the Victorian statute which explicitly includes the act of causing sexual penetration against consent in the overall definition of rape, so 'made to penetrate' would be defined as rape, t… | /r/MensRights | 26/03/17 10:52 PM |

| 1 | Apparently Homelessness is only a Problem if you are a Woman.FTR, the equivalent legislation in Victoria, Australia, includes 'surgically constructed' vaginas as part of the definition of 'vagina'. Not sure if this is universally accepted, however. The definition itself is pretty airtight, otherwise. I disagree that the definition itself makes it very unlikely the perpetrator would be female. It's discomfittingly gender-neutral - anyone can be found guilty of raping another on these grounds, no excuses. Keep your fingers, mouth, sex organs, and wielded ob… | /r/MensRights | 26/03/17 07:20 PM |
| 1 | Apparently Homelessness is only a Problem if you are a Woman.This definition of rape includes male victims. The term 'vagina' is inclusive, not exclusive. | /r/MensRights | 26/03/17 06:33 PM |
| 1 | Apparently Homelessness is only a Problem if you are a Woman.Sexual penetration is possible without a penis. It doesn't matter whether the recipient is male or female. Think tongues, fingers, and objects. A male forcing his penis into a non-consenting person's mouth is just as guilty of rape as a female forcing her fingers into a non-consenting person's anus is, for example. | /r/MensRights | 26/03/17 06:22 PM |
| 2 | Opinion Piece Delivers a "wake up and smell the bullshit ladies!" message in a major media publicationThere is no doubt in my mind this would be the case. The thing about 'feminised' roles, trades and professions is that they are chronically undervalued by society, both in remuneration and in prestige. Women have the reverse Midas touch, as I like to put it - everything they touch turns to tin. Is this fair? Is the value we place on women's work commensurate with the value it contributes to society? Imma say, no. Absolutely not. Doesn't mean women are social dead-weight, however. Far from it.

Hiring, or eligibilty, policy should not be based on gender stereotypes, but on individual merit. If 9/10 times a man can do it better than a woman, then so be it. However, when it comes to matters not of pure brawn, is a man really 9/10 times really more likely than a woman to do it better? Let's look a little deeper. Is our society truly a meritocracy?

| 4 | Opinion Piece Delivers a "wake up and smell the bullshit ladies!" message in a major media publicationHaving worked in several call center/office type jobs I can safely say it is much better to be a woman there than a man. Um, those jobs are extremely low-brow office work. Speaking as an ex-call centre worker myself, with years of experience in the industry. Managing a call centre is not where the money or prestige of the corporate world is. The men you weren't seeing were all out making serious money in a serious job elsewhere. Manual labour would earn men more than those types of office jobs. | /r/PussyPassDenied | 29/01/17 12:12 PM |

That's right. But it's not so easy for everyone to break free of these ingrained expectations, and there are ingrained expectations.

This is a salient point. If men, women, and robots can all manage to perform the same jobs that historically only men were fit to perform, what roles are left just for men?

As a second wave feminist and woman, myself, I bridle at these assertions, because they're so freaking sexist and misguided. Women are as equally capable of being self-interested assholes as men are.

I don't know enough about the history of the women's suffragette movement to comment on this with confidence, but these aims appear to be at odds with those of the official initiators - government/military big wigs, who presumed to trade in men's insecurity over having their masculinity challenged by those whom they most wished to impress out of customary social de… | /r/MensRights | 05/04/16 07:13 PM |

| 2 | Why do men care about partner count so much more than women?Of course you can (any woman can), but as you have bitterly learned, men will not commit to you. You have now realized how truthful the red pill really is and that while women hold the gateway to sex, men hold the gateway to commitment. You're over-the-hill and the high value men you desire are looking at your 24 year old counterparts. Sigh. The father of my two children and I were together for 10 years. We own a house together. We co-parent our children harmoniously. I've never been fat, but I'… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/04/15 07:38 AM |
| 1 | Why do men care about partner count so much more than women?"Virgin" implies more than mere youth; it suggests a mindset or lifestyle, also. An older woman who 'maintains' her virginity, probably has cultural and/or psychological reasons for doing so which are (probably) negatively correlated with an enthusiastic attitude towards sex, generally. This usually spells doom for the married person's sex life, make no mistake. Is investing in a virgin really as worthwhile as some men think it is? I'm extremely dubious, but also a faithful, past the wall, non-v… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/04/15 02:47 PM |
| 6 | Why do men care about partner count so much more than women?I think any age is fine to want a virgin. Really? So you'd 'want' a virgin who was... 40, even if you were, say, 60? What sort of person remains a virgin by choice indefinitely? Well beyond completion of puberty is something I'd consider indicative of something unattractively dysfunctional about the person, regardless of gender. I think you would have to be very confident about your own worth and value to go for the prime pussy that is a virgin 18-20 year old female. '...prime pussy that is a vi… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/04/15 12:53 PM |
| 2 | Why do men care about partner count so much more than women?OMG, yes. I (34F) wouldn't date a (male) virgin now either, and wouldn't have for quite a long time. It's just too weird, and I can't understand why any man, at least in my own age group, would want to date a female virgin. Beyond a certain age, wanting a sexual partner to be a virgin indicates a deep-seated insecurity about one's own self-worth. My own partner count is well under 10, but I've also never cheated in a relationship, and wouldn't in future if I'd committed to someone. Some of the m… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/04/15 11:06 AM |
| 1 | What do you think of a Stay-at-Home dad and Business Executive mother arrangement in a family?If the roles of the two parents are so rigid, it could cause issues of resentment if one needed help with theirs from the other, or vice versa, and the other was unwilling to step up. The breadwinner might not always want to be just the breadwinner, and the home-maker might always want to be just the home-maker. Unless the pair can address these types of issues when or if they arise, then the lack of flexibility in the division of labour is a recipe for resentment and unhappiness, IMO. One paren… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/03/15 03:38 AM |
| -1 | If alpha/fucks beta bucks is present in society, will men not continue to be adopt more RP values?Nope. 'Good' people, i.e. faithful partners in this example, regularly deny, outright, the blatant faults their beloved is telling them about all along. It's all a huge 'lie' when the truth can no longer be ignored, but most often, it was there all along, and the 'good' partner simply refused to acknowledge it. Yes, people can deliberately act to their own detriment, and not believe they are doing so - 'good' OR 'bad' people, as the case may be. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/03/15 12:33 PM |

| 4 | BP, Whats the biggest Red Pill belief you disagree with?In the same way that I don't think religious people can pretend their crazy zealots aren't really part of their religion (ex. Muslims saying terrorists aren't real Muslims), I don't think RPers can deny that these guys are RPers. This is a side effect of what TRP is and this is what TRP helps create. I agree. It's nice to take credit for the people who do your ideology proud, but not so much when the exact same ideology results in anti-social outcomes. IMO, you gotta accept the good with the bad… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/03/15 01:30 PM |
| 2 | BP, Whats the biggest Red Pill belief you disagree with?You have the right to pursue the relationship you want most. Everyone does. As long as you're upfront about your expectations, and follow through accordingly, then there's no issue, right? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/03/15 01:04 PM |
| 2 | BP, Whats the biggest Red Pill belief you disagree with?I wouldn't want men to be replaced with robots. As a woman, I have to say I love men, and mostly because they're different to me. (Yes, this is an egocentric view, but I know I'm not alone on this one.) I want men to do what they need to do, but I don't want it to impede what women, on the whole, want to do themselves. I really do believe in equality, but it's from the assumption that EVERYONE is naturally self-serving. Hence, I believe each person has a right to pursue their self interests as b… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/03/15 12:56 PM |
| 5 | Should Low SMV men participate in nightlife? Or should they stay in and build up their SMV?I've always hated clubbing for clubbing's sake, and only went 'out' to see bands, or to go to raves with friends. I would never go out with the sole purpose of meeting strangers on my mind. Maybe I'm boring, though. If you don't have a suitable group of friends to go out with, and hate it anyway, it probably is a useless way for you to meet new people, especially women, if that's your goal. You still need to put yourself 'out there', but maybe conserve your efforts for social situations in which… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/01/15 01:55 PM |
| 2 | [Serious] Feminists, how do you feel about MGTOW?I think /u/an_absolute_rose meant feel free to offend others with your actual opinion. Why should you apologise for it? If you set out to deliberately offend people, then expect, 1. backlash, and 2. (more likely) nobody will care unless you're somebody important. (Are you?) Proffering your "extreme" version of MGTOW for analysis on-line suggests (screams) that you care - a lot - what people think of you.

| 1 | How do you explain the existence of patriarchy if the sexes have equal natural willpower?The question is why were they able to be denied it in the first place? If women had this great power, then why weren't they in charge of who gets to be denied power/agency/buzzword? I'm not an expert on these matters, but I believe there are matriarchal societies which exist for both humans and other animals. I would argue that women have equally contributed towards the development and maintenance of patriarchal societies - as much as men. I think an anthropologist would be needed to answer why … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/12/14 01:17 AM |
| 3 | How do you explain the existence of patriarchy if the sexes have equal natural willpower?I DISAGREE! I think it's just the one thing - only women can bear children. That's a pretty big deal. Denying women any other power or agency in their lives was basically a necessity to maintaining a semblance of equal contribution to society between the sexes. Ask why the ability to produce more people isn't deemed the greater power, physically, between men and women? Why is men's generally greater physical strength compared to women's considered an unequivocal advantage, despite physically str… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/12/14 11:12 PM |
| 1 | Redpillers, do you believe in "wife goggles"? How do you explain it's origin or purpose?Humans take a very long time to reach sexual maturity. Even our gestation takes the better part of a year. Raising a human to adulthood is resource intensive, so it's not that much of a stretch to extrapolate that individuals who provided support to their offspring for longer than mere attainment of adulthood were more likely to propagate their genetic material in subsequent generations. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/12/14 07:26 AM |
| 3 | Is the current system of sexual dynamics bad for society?Yes it is a social experiment. It's a radical departure from what previous generations of humans have lived with for thousands of years. No one is 'testing' a hypothesis - effective, affordable, self-determined birth control is available to women as a matter of health care, not social engineering, although social concerns would likely have expedited the development of the pill, for example. Whatever the social implications, it's no longer considered acceptable or appropriate to withhold access t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/14 10:11 PM |
| 3 | Is the current system of sexual dynamics bad for society?People married more out of necessity for most of human history. Yep. Today is the aberration, Yep. and therefore largely an experiment Nope. 'Today' is not an experiment at all. as it hasn't been tested long enough with any strong indicators of success. This is not the definition of 'experiment'. Access to safe, affordable birth control is not provisional.

This is why I'd call myself 'purple pill' rather than strictly 'blue pill'. I appreciate the self-improvement aspect of TRP, but feel that it's mostly lip service when I read the average TRP post and comments. You should continue your self-improvement journey, and realise it never really ends, IMO. Always strive to be the best you that you can be.

| 3 | TRP's take on the leaked celebrity pics...If I leave my wallet in an unlocked locker at the gym and somebody robs me, guess what it's my fault and I accept that. I could have prevented that from happening. If I leave my keys in my car, I should not be surprised nor angry that when my car is stolen. The digital files were not kept in an 'unlocked locker' at the (public) 'gym'. The work of hackers is nebulous, esoteric and unpredictable to the lay person, as with the work of car thieves.

| 7 | TRP's take on the leaked celebrity pics...Just like you lock your house to prevent robberies even if you live in a nice area, you just have to do the same with your private material." I think these people DID, metaphorically, lock their houses to prevent robbery (sic). (Burglary is the crime when someone enters and steals from premises; robbery necessarily involves an assault.) It's an unfortunate situation for those exposed, but it's an opportunistic act more than anything. It is definitely NOT the celebrity's/ies' fault, unless they c… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/09/14 10:25 AM |
| 8 | Women's role in marriage (and later) - a questionThe man can lose his entire lifestyle in a divorce. The woman has to lose nothing. I don't understand how this plays out in real life. I'm from Australia and we have very good welfare provisions, so it must be very different to the US. If a couple divorce, they must live in separate houses, so if the wife is solely relying on her ex husband to support her, her lifestyle is not going to be anywhere near the same - one income split over two households doesn't go as far as that same income spent on… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 06/06/14 01:44 AM |

Circumstances in which a person does not freely agree to an act include the following— ... (e) the person is incapable of understanding the sexual nature of the act; (f) the person is mistaken about the sexual nature of the act or the identity of the person; (g) the person mistakenly believes that the act is for medical or hygienic pu… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/05/14 04:12 AM |
| 1 | What is Rape?I'm from Melbourne, Australia, and in my state rape is defined thus: "A person commits rape if - he or she intentionally sexually penetrates another person without that person's consent while being aware that the person is not consenting or might not be consenting..." (s 38 2(a) Crimes Act 1958). Section 38 contains other defining provisions, but this basically sums up what I consider rape to be. The legislation is gender neutral, so men and women are equally deemed capable of committing rape, a… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/05/14 03:23 AM |
| 2 | I am a Heterosexual Woman AMAIn that case, a gay man who's sucked a lot of cock, and vice versa, probably wouldn't be able to coach her either. Is good blowjob technique really so ineffable? I often read some fairly specific blow-by-blow accounts of successful blowjob technique by women on /r/sex, which seem to go down well. Maybe she just needs more practice. ;) Sorry for the puns. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/02/14 10:01 PM |
| 5 | I am a Heterosexual Woman AMAI bet you could give great blowjob advice! What you like is probably not so dissimilar to what other guys would like, and I'm sure you have the vocabulary to describe what it is that a woman does when you get a good one. Furthermore, fish would be able to tell you what food they like, and therefore what bait is likely to work. The fishing analogy fails because you'd have to assume the fish has a vested interest in NOT being caught. Women do want to be 'caught', however, just by the right person.… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/02/14 09:50 PM |
| 4 | Wage Gap MythLOL. I can see your point about human resources employees - I suppose the world wouldn't exactly stop turning if they all didn't show up for work one day, so low salary is perhaps justified. The same could be said of many well-paid male-dominated white collar jobs which are non-essential too, though. I was inspired to do some further reading to see if I could find some studies comparing the pay of certain jobs relative to education and skill requirements in feminised and male-dominated jobs. Unf… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/11/13 03:58 AM |
| 4 | Wage Gap MythA lot of typically low-paid professions are dominated by women, teaching and nursing, for example, and the often highly paid STEM professions are dominated by men. Superficially, this can explain the gender wage gap as non-discriminatory - women are simply choosing the low-paid professions, so naturally are earning less than men overall. I believe the issue runs a bit deeper than that, however. Is it just some massive coincidence that jobs which are typically female-dominated are low-paid? Women… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 23/11/13 12:31 AM |

These are necessarily pejorative terms, and the implication is that women are lacking character, no good and not worth treating deferentially if they post nudey pics of themselves online.
