Are you claiming lottery winnings are not random?

By asking questions that would incriminate fuckbois? Or by observing subtleties in the way they speak to you? I don't know; maybe I'm unusual in that I only date people who can explicitly tell me about their beliefs about and talk openly about sexuality and sexual conflict. It's clear that online dating as a woman is hard, which is why women are so underrepresented on apps. I'm not here to deny your experiences.

That's a fair enough answer, thanks for elaborating your experiences. I think also as a man I'm probably at an advantage to see what games other men are playing; it would probably be trickier as an outsider. And although I know many women who are very good at spotting it too, they aren't representative of all women.

Fair enough, well I hope your mood improves - hard to effect positive change on the world when you're disenchanted

Meh, even with all the problems in the world, on balance I'd still rather be here than never born, by a long way. I'll take the world as it is, not as I'd like it to be. Imperfect but still worth experiencing.

a) I don't use twitter and never will; b) all the women I am/have been close friends with and talk to about this stuff (probably close to 20 people) are all able to read that kind of body language / pick up on that vibe from a mile off. c) why on earth would I want to punish women? I don't get it?

On dating apps, yes, there are selection biases at work. Another reason why I don't use apps.

Yeah with women with BPD. Not something to be envious of.

Okay, that makes sense. Please don't downvote my question (if that was you), I'm asking it in a spirit of curiosity not defensiveness.

I agree, as a man. It's not that hard. Just show up regularly and be friendly and you can get the chance to demonstrate your social skills before moving things further.

Why would you be matching with fuckbois and losers? Can't you see who they are from a mile away? Or at least ghost them after they demonstrate that they have zero social skills, rather than before? I don't understand it.

If that's the case, why would you swipe yes on someone if you know you won't be able to talk to them?

I agree so much with this, as a man. Whenever male friends of mine ask me for dating advice the first thing I tell them is to delete their apps and talk to people IRL. I met my long term partner when I went and joined a gymnastics club, for example. But at the same time I think a lot of men have no clue about how to be confident enough to shoot their shot while remaining non-threatening to female strangers. That takes practice and thought for guys who have no idea how difficult it can be to be o…

This situation is dicey. If he's unable to communicate clearly to you what his feelings are, he shouldn't be touching you in that way. If he says "I'm touch starved and want these things in a non sexual way", then he's possibly being honest and you can negotiate from there.

Yep, can confirm, GF is more securely attached than a barnacle to a ship. Her family background is remarkably free of trauma too, which makes the relationship so easy, in the best way. I hadn't thought about my colleague's situation in terms of attachment theory but I think you're absolutely right. Thanks for the observation!

Who knows. Women differ a lot and have different views when it comes to approaching relationships. My girlfriend adores my emotional availability, because that's what was modeled to her in her relationship with her parents, and her parents' relationship with each other. On the other hand my hot female Chinese colleague can't stand men who want any kind of emotional connection whatsoever, and gets rid of them at the first opportunity. She told me she "doesn't believe in unconditionality" in roman…

In my experience the misandrists are a very small minority, but I'm in Australia. Maybe the political environment is different here. Regardless, the philosophy and history of feminism is what matters to me. It's irrelevant what bigots who want to be associated with that label think it means.

As a feminist, I'm more than happy to denounce bigotry when I see it. So sure, I'll go ahead and denounce all that behaviour. I bet you I can find hundreds of other feminists who also would. I got banned from the anarchism subreddit for supporting a certain famous individual who himself is an anarchist, and whose behaviours certainly are anarchist. Does that mean I conclude that anarchism is an inconsistent and bankrupt philosophy, just because individual people who call themselves anarchists ba…

Should I wear that as a badge of honour? Are you so ashamed of yourself that such an insult would be meaningful to you?

Australia. I have a lot of close female friends, and they trust me enough to tell me about their sex lives, desires etc. Surveys on the prevalence of bisexuality are often anonymous but have their own design limitations (a lot of bisexual women don't think of themselves as bisexual for example).

Go and look at that subreddit and you'll see thousands of individual answers. You could also look at the more than 12,000 positive reviews (most from men) of renowned feminist author bell hooks' book "The Will to Change". Every successful feminist action brings benefits to men as well as women, since we all benefit from equality. For example, #MeToo directly benefited men by helping us see how our friends, girlfriends, daughters etc. were being sexually exploited by men in positions of power. If…

A lot of men on here who seem determined to go to war with feminism, while simultaneously knowing nothing of its history and philosophy. At the same time a lot of toxic misandrists who try to pass their bigotry off as feminism, hence giving the movement a bad name. People are disappointing sometimes.

There are scenarios where men lack political rights. Menslib is a group of pro-feminist men dedicated to tackling those issues. MRA is a group of anti-feminist men with the same scope but a much more gender-adversarial philosophy. MRA pits itself against feminism, when really it has goals that are entirely compatible. Feminism is not the cause of its problems; feminism is an allied movement. Because, as we've discussed, feminism wants equal rights for both men and women. And enlightened feminist…

There exist plenty of small-minded individual women who call themselves feminists to disguise the fact that they're just basic b*tch man-hating misandrists. Those people certainly exist. But they are the exception, not the norm, as a little bit of historical digging will uncover. And we shouldn't let them co-opt the movement; they are a threat to it. Feminists who know a bit about the history and philosophy of the movement care a lot about men. A good example is bell hooks, whose book "The Will …

...We at Menslib literally are feminists. Just because we're men doesn't mean we don't have the same political goals. So nothing you wrote above makes sense.

Not the gotcha that you think it is. That's where the men's liberation movement comes in. Go and look at r/menslib. You'll see a large community of feminist men discussing the exact same issues that MRAs discuss.

Come on dude, it's one google search away. "Feminism is greatly informed by egalitarian philosophy, being a gender-focused philosophy of equality. Feminism is distinguished from egalitarianism by also existing as a political and social movement." from Wikipedia There are a multitude of reasons to eschew the label "egalitarian", not least of which is that in practice it means nothing. Like, who on earth isn't an egalitarian, apart from maybe an outright fascist or sadist?

Women have historically been the people who didn't have rights; the feminist movement is what brought those rights, and continues to work on reducing political discrimination based on gender. r/Menslib for example, is a men's rights group that refers to itself as feminist. "Egalitarianism" is a term used to sideline feminist achievements and to cast suspicion on the goals of the feminist movement. As for bisexuality, I'm agreeing with you and stating that most women are not heterosexual. Where I…

I'm a man, and I believe feminism is good, actually. Equal rights is a great idea. Am I also "infected" according to your worldview? And most of the women I know are bisexual. Is that a problem?

The whole way of looking at relationships that's implicit in the red pill worldview, is antithetical to the way that most of the women I know look at relationships. It leaves no room for unconditional behaviour of any sort; it's entirely transactional. Yes, the dating world can be analysed as a marketplace, but no, that doesn't mean that analogy captures all of what's going on in said world. I say this as a man who is not the most conventionally attractive guy (I'm probably like a 7), but who ha…

removing the pleasant thinly veiled facade of modern civilised society and clearly stating the basic lizard brain impulses that still exist among men and women in the modern age in respect to finding a partner Freud did just that 130 years ago, and yet here we are still talking about it

This is patently untrue. It's about making sure she doesn't feel singled out or targeted. 99% of "dating advice" fails to achieve the goal of making the woman not feel targeted. And attractive women have an especially keen sense of who is targeting them, since it's a huge part of their lived experience. For example, I picked up an attractive woman on the train the other day, and took her out on a date. In order to approach her on the train, I had to set up a situation where I "coincidentally" en…

I wouldn't think they're representative of the general male population, but they are probably quite representative of the terminally online male population. If I want to see well-adjusted men who "get it" I go to r/menslib instead.

And in Christianity you also need to “love everyone”, to which you can then logically extend “have sex with anyone because you should love them all”. Hmm...
/r/PurplePillDebate18/05/23 06:43 AM

As a bi man myself the reason I often end up preferring hetero relationships is that women are more different from me and therefore tend to be more interesting. Also there are a lot more well-adjusted and intelligent single women out there than there are other bi men (I'm not really interested in dating purely gay men). And then of course it's less work dealing with stigma, because other people don't bat an eye if they see me with a woman. But dating men every now and then is exciting as well, s…

This doesn't contradict what you're saying, but I (as a man) did have a strange experience once back when I was working in retail where a customer hit on me and we started dating because I liked her. She saw herself as a lesbian, and had actually just broken off a marriage engagement with another woman before she met me. The fact that she was dating me didn't change in any way the fact that she saw herself as a lesbian, and she was sleeping with other women at the same time she was dating me (I …
