0	Are there men in your life who are good overall but fail at dating? What does this say about modern dating? You only know “sluts” and “nerds”? None who are “good overall” as the OP said? Damn, sorry for you	/r/PurplePillDebate	26/01/23 10:25 PM
6	Are there men in your life who are good overall but fail at dating? What does this say about modern dating? Sounds like you need to change up your circle	/r/PurplePillDebate	26/01/23 03:41 PM
1	Are relationships becoming more openly transactional? It's because What's because? I don't understand this as a stand-alone response to the OP.	/r/PurplePillDebate	13/12/22 03:27 PM
1	CMV: Men have to get their abundance mentality on the same level of women. But the observation about female abundance mentality suggests that there are “homeless” females demanding $100 bills too. I think your idea of abundance mentality is pretty similar to mine.	/r/PurplePillDebate	12/12/22 04:07 PM
5	CMV: Men have to get their abundance mentality on the same level of women. I’m surprised this changed your mind. Surely the original thought for your idea was the observation that seemingly low value women (a homeless woman in keeping with the example) have the confidence (abundance mentality) to Next guys and your thought was well why don’t we men do that too to even the playing field and obtain better outcomes through solidarity? Of course you can’t play hardball successfully if your bargaining position is very weak and this is obvious to your female counterparty. I …	/r/PurplePillDebate	12/12/22 03:18 PM
1	As a leftist man, I believe that men are better off not pursuing progressive/feminist/leftist women for long-term relationships. Ok you sound like you have a hot soup of ideas sloshing around in your head about politics, society and history, not gonna touch that… good day!	/r/PurplePillDebate	01/12/22 07:50 PM
0	As a leftist man, I believe that men are better off not pursuing progressive/feminist/leftist women for long-term relationships. lol is this a serious comment or am i being wooshed?	/r/PurplePillDebate	01/12/22 06:50 PM
-1	Why is it most women view low self esteem in a guy a red flag, but most guys view low self esteem as not a deal breaker? Holy reductive generalizations! This doesn’t ring true at all. This sub is so addicted to the women good/men bad dichotomy	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/09/22 12:37 PM
-1	Attractive men are really rare You obviously haven’t been to Scandinavia. 80% would be conservative	/r/PurplePillDebate	21/08/22 12:34 AM
6	It’s women’s nature to exploit men’s sex drives, they evolved to be this way Holy shit you’re a woman? lmao	/r/PurplePillDebate	20/08/22 09:42 AM
7	It’s women’s nature to exploit men’s sex drives, they evolved to be this way Whatever. “Women are just gold diggers who tolerate sex”. Good luck in life if you’re planning to die on that hill	/r/PurplePillDebate	20/08/22 09:37 AM
6	It’s women’s nature to exploit men’s sex drives, they evolved to be this way Another bad energy toxic red pill thread? This sub continues to confuse me.	/r/PurplePillDebate	20/08/22 09:34 AM
9	what do you see as the dividing line between the blue and red pills? Based on this thread, I think we can tell who is red pill and who is blue pill by how they each describe the other.	/r/PurplePillDebate	19/08/22 01:57 PM
3	"My friend had a lot of fun in her 20s and 30s. Now She's happily married with an amazing husband and has 2 kids." - A lot of women on this sub and FDS sub says that. But there are big holes in that logic. Yeah basically. That’s why I was confused. I was like, ok in what way is “Purple” different from red if this is getting posted?	/r/PurplePillDebate	16/08/22 07:33 AM
28	"My friend had a lot of fun in her 20s and 30s. Now She's happily married with an amazing husband and has 2 kids." - A lot of women on this sub and FDS sub says that. But there are big holes in that logic. I’m relatively new to this sub, but is this seriously the level of discourse that I can expect? Mods were very quick to take down a post of mine because it was flaired wrong (apparently) but this rubbish gets through? Weird place	/r/PurplePillDebate	16/08/22 05:57 AM
1	Why does the phrase “unrealistic body standards” get thrown around mainly in relation to men’s views of women? It also arguably applies to women’s views of men Ok …and? What does your comment mean? Have you removed this post?	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/08/22 05:34 PM
1	Why does the phrase “unrealistic body standards” get thrown around mainly in relation to men’s views of women? It also arguably applies to women’s views of men Well yeah, body positivity and railing against the “unrealistic body standards” women face hasn’t actually changed men’s preferences - but it has created/imposed a social cost on men for those preferences (where no such cost existed before). Men should advocate for that cost to be applied in the opposite direction as well.	/r/PurplePillDebate	15/08/22 09:37 AM
4	Is Andrew Schulz correct about this? Love goggles are different tho. Overlooking flaws is not the same as noting flaws but growing to love them. I agree with OP that men generally don’t find flaws they’ve noted in women endearing over time	/r/PurplePillDebate	13/08/22 07:30 AM
4	I don’t see anything wrong with pumping and dumping a woman I mean, you could make this kind of response (if you dared) to any number of gripes raised by women. Imagine dismissing a woman's concerns as her "fantasy war with men"	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/08/22 06:07 AM
7	I don’t see anything wrong with pumping and dumping a woman I see the point you're making kind of smugly, but to be more charitable it is a bit of a chicken/egg problem that's as old as the sexes themselves.	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/08/22 06:05 AM
9	I don’t see anything wrong with pumping and dumping a woman Can you put a few more words on the ways in which, historically, women have betrayed and the ways in which men have trusted? And how could men reciprocate betrayal in this context?	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/08/22 06:03 AM
3	What are common ways men and women shoot themselves in the foot? Whats old?	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/08/22 08:40 PM
2	“Pick better men” is a cop out to not hold men accountable Your comment reminded me of this thing I've been thinking about: a model of gender differences in Micro vs Macro Solidarity (or "allegiance" as you put it). By Micro Solidarity, I mean a person's propensity to feel solidarity with (as opposed to cut-throat competition) members of their own sex on an interpersonal level, i.e. in a group of friends etc. By Macro Solidarity, I mean a person's propensity to feel that same solidarity with members of their own sex on a society-wide level, i.e. when th…	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/08/22 02:03 PM
8	Do you think modern dating is fair for men? Why? The response "men are trash" Yeah, I'm not sure zeroing in on that gives the impression that you've taken my comment in good faith. I guess I wonder how it would go over to give a "both sides experience this, let's not compare" response to a post by a woman complaining about, oh I don't know, any of the following off the top of my head: - No good men - Men don't lift their weight enough - Mansplaining - Bumping up against the limitations of gender role expectations	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/08/22 09:06 AM
8	Do you think modern dating is fair for men? Why? You’re right of course, but I think what gets up some people’s (men’s) nose is that this nuanced, balanced view isn’t also taken when it comes to a “complaint” that women have about the way the world is. It’s a failure of the dialogue - this perception that men’s grievances are minimized or dismissed while women’s are amplified or prioritized. It feels a bit like: Men: Dating really sucks for us at the moment Response: Hold on now; it sucks for everyone, it’s not very productive to compete as to…	/r/PurplePillDebate	10/08/22 08:43 AM
1	This was posted on other subs months ago. We're slipping guys. Really? Shropshire? How wonderful	/r/PussyPassDenied	04/03/17 04:58 PM
9	Girl gets hit by truck - instant karma Don't agree. He stayed calm. He put himself between his girl and the pack. He kept in on a leash until really provoked and even then it was restrained and self-defensive. Got his girl in the car, safe. Props to him.	/r/PussyPassDenied	04/03/17 04:57 PM
2	Girl gets hit by truck - instant karma That kid (the guy) handled that really well	/r/PussyPassDenied	04/03/17 04:56 PM
2	The twilight zone. That awkward step of trying to make the transition from being friends/acquaintances to the bedroom. No probs man. I thought you might ask that follow up. Look, I get that you don't feel you can make overt sexual overtures towards her in front of all your friends. But I'm also assuming from your original post that she's into you and that – really – she's simply waiting for you to engineer a situation in which to sexualise the relationship between you. She's expecting it. She's waiting for you to make it happen. That's why I think it's important that you isolate her during one of your nights out…	/r/seduction	31/03/13 12:52 AM
2	The twilight zone. That awkward step of trying to make the transition from being friends/acquaintances to the bedroom. I'm a noob, so take my advice with a grain of salt. Reading your situation, it sounds like you have a really organic bond of attraction developing with this girl as a result of you being a fun, awesome person. My worry for you is that texting her during the week to organise a formal lunch "date" might have the effect of applying the brakes to this developing relationship. Ie, it might scare her off or come across as unnatural. You should pay attention to the milieu in which your relationship wit…	/r/seduction	30/03/13 07:07 AM
