| 2 | I find women from other countries respect men more than in USA?how do you differentiate between those cases when you see them - is it strictly by the perceived transactional nature? I sometimes think about moving overseas once i have the means, and being able to find a partner would be a big part of it. I don't really care for finding a subservient wife or whatever (anymore), although being a relatively wealthy American seems like an asset to whatever degree transactionality happens to affect things. the bigger draw for me is that I feel people from outside… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/06/26 04:07 PM |

| 5 | women do not hate objectification, they hate low value objectificationI wouldn't know, I don't have that kind of experience or mind what I do know is that men typically need to interact at a level beyond basic platonic/cordial if they want to flirt or attract or get dates, and that this is where women already express discomfort (depending on the situation/context). this is what i mean by flirtatious comments/interactions. obviously there's a level at which it becomes very clearly wrong regardless of context (e.g. catcalling), I'm not arguing for men getting one ca… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/05/26 06:21 PM |

| 7 | Men need their own way out of romantic dependencyI think it's just that it sounds a lot like feminism so it more easily evokes the idea of uplifting men in a way that isn't about reinforcing historic masculinity/machismo/etc, and it also lacks the baggage that stuff like "MRA" ended up taking on. virinism is too esoteric for the average reader, and masculism probably evokes typical and/or toxic masculinity sooner than it evokes "male counterpart to feminism" | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/05/26 06:19 PM |
| 9 | Men need their own way out of romantic dependencyyour edit is something i feel is the case. I've heard the term "meninism/meninist" used for what OP describes (or more broadly, for non-toxic non-manosphere feminism equivalents for men), and I agree that we need it, but as long as the word "virgin" carries weight as an insult, or whatever word is down the euphemism treadmill from "virgin", I don't think it's gonna happen at scale | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/05/26 03:32 PM |

| 3 | I don’t agree with any of the pills but blue pill advice is far worse than red pill"bluepill" typically accepts that, marriage rates are dropping but so are divorce rates, bc the marriages that do happen are better ones on average redpillers are more likely to be the ones that idolize the past where everybody got married, even when that marriage was out of necessity on the woman's part (which afaik is a big reason why so many married couples seem to hate eachother) | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/26 03:35 PM |

| 1 | Romantic relationships are getting betterWouldn’t there always be some unhappy people and some happy people though yes, it will never be 100% Even if the marriage rates were higher, you’d have a significant amount of people who were unhappy because they didn’t like their partner/ didn’t want to be married Or it could be the case that more people become able to seek out satisfying relationships, and the percentage of the total population (of both single and partnered people) who are in a (mutually) happy relationship/marriage goes up.

| 3 | Romantic relationships are getting betterit's meaningless for people who are already single and unhappy. i would agree that its a net good in that there are probably more happy people than not, but its not significant in the specific way that OP is implying (that it would be a "shocker" to redpill/blackpill or cast doubt on their conclusions) | /r/PurplePillDebate | 10/04/26 02:59 AM |
| 12 | Men confuse their desire as effortdesire and effort are separate things, so when I read that women want to be desired that is basically my response, "I already desire a woman I really like/love so what more is there to it?". that said, the effort part makes sense and I think your analogy about the buying flowers helps a lot. so imo the simplest thing to do is to skip to advising "he should put in the effort to make her feel desired" instead of just stating "women want to be desired" and running down the what-counts-as-desire dia… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/04/26 06:33 PM |
| 0 | People agree that women arent primarily visual like men, yet still fall for the idea that majority of men are unattractive, just because women dont get wet from men's profile pic and agetaken at face value, it means 80% of mens dating app profiles fail to interest/intrigue/attract the average woman the key is to separate the profile/presentation from the actual individual | /r/PurplePillDebate | 04/04/26 12:59 AM |
| 4 | CMV: “friends first” or waiting months to build a relationship isn’t a viable path for 99% of adults anymore and people should stop trying to act like it isI think the idea is to be making and having friends and keeping the social muscles warmed up so that you have social circles and can interact naturally and all that, which has value of its own in addition to being something that will look better to potential partners. but im not sure it's sufficient to appear attractive, and I don't think the social skills/habits/muscles for generic friendly platonic interaction translate well into romantic interaction | /r/PurplePillDebate | 31/03/26 12:23 AM |
| 2 | Most Men Would Still Fail Even If they suddenly started getting more matchesare you just trying to say that there are hurdles after "get the match" that are equally difficult? because that can be true, and it still wouldn't change the fact that getting more matches (or having equivalent first interactions with a women IRL) in the first place is advantageous over not getting them | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/03/26 05:19 PM |

| 2 | Men here misinterpret "personality matter" and overlook social skills.I think he means that each woman values various traits to different degrees, but that of the traits that would fall under "personality", "sociability" is the only one that has any relevance just to clear up what (I think) he means to claim. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/03/26 03:23 PM |

This drives a lot of male romantic loneliness.I meant in person, I guess excluding PUA-tier cold approach and also long term friendship->relationship since those work a bit different than everything in between I know redpill characterizes it as competing with other men, but i would say its more like theres a threshold (or filter, or bar) to be cleared in order for a given woman to be interested in connecting in the first place That threshold will obviously be context- and person-dependent, but what seems to be the common thread is some uniq… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/02/26 12:44 AM |

| 3 | I disagree with "there is someone out there for everybody"youre right about the history about the word incel, but honestly I think trying to make a better word is pointless unless/until the underlying social disapproval of lack of dating success is seriously curbed a better example word IMO is "virgin", which is much broader than "incel" and even includes ppl who date just fine and abstain from sex purely by personal choice, yet it's still used as an insult | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/02/26 10:57 PM |

Is the term creepy overused, or is it warranted?I find it questionable to apply the label “creepy” (which carries moral condemnation) to someone whose missteps stem from a skill deficit rather than intentional disrespect. Especially given that it's harder for those who didn't automatically acquire it to learn the social fluency needed to intuit other people's discomfort, than it is for most people to simply state their own discomfort | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/12/25 07:33 PM |
| 1 | What makes a man creepy? Is the term creepy overused, or is it warranted?how do you suggest a man becomes good at dealing with being found creepy? since your own first paragraph already establishes that failing to read the room is inescapably guaranteed to happen at various points | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/12/25 05:23 PM |

| 1 | Men say they just want a normal, decent partner and resent women for wanting ‘perfect’; Women are terrified of being chosen merely for being decent and acceptablenot really. her point is that she views the standards as not high enough, ergo "meeting the [current] standard" is "sub-standard" i think it's flawed in this instance but not for that reason | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/12/25 04:35 PM |

| 12 | The days of men cold approaching random women in streets, malls, and grocery stores left and right are long gone and will never come back.probably from being told that befriending a woman in the hopes of escalating to romance was labeled as bad and wrong | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/12/25 08:49 AM |
| 1 | Why do men think there are so many good menI don't think this question can be properly answered without first clarifying 1) the difference between "good" and "great" (you used the latter instead of the former in your last sentence) and 2) whether you are applying those terms to basic human worth, to moral character, or to partner suitability | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/12/25 02:01 AM |
| 3 | A dating quietly rewards men for behaviors that would be labeled predatory or toxic if those same men openly wanted to do themThose aren't the ethical lines I was taught upfront growing up. i was taught to be honest and respectful and considerate, and that doesn't leave room for the ambiguity or "mystery" that seems to be important for flirting and attraction, which is exactly what OP describes. i dont think he would've labeled those behaviors as "manipulative" if the norms more closely matched reality | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/12/25 08:16 PM |

| 5 | How do you think this "Red Pill recruiting" happens?this was good until the last sentence when you made a pretty wild jump you established that Joe is already seeking answers online for his struggles with approaching women or getting tinder matches. Whether through his own further curiosity in the people responding with their RP "advice" or through thw algorithm funneling more RP content to his feed, Joe is led to communities that tell him that those issues he faces are the result/fault of women being awful, either by nature or by intention.

| 3 | Men should not approach without obvious signalsin this case, i would imagine she would probably reply very coldly or not at all, and the man would just take it as the clear sign of uninterest that it is and cease to bother her | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/12/25 06:11 AM |
| 2 | Why do so many women exaggerate about their standards?it's the "the bar is in hell" kinds of comments that lead to the impression OP is describing | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/12/25 06:07 AM |
| 3 | How can we reconcile "Don't go out just to meet women." and "Get outside your comfort zone [if you want to meet women]." as dating advice for men?those who tend to meet people and date them (because they are "naturals" who don't need advice) obviously won't end up sharing his worldview | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/12/25 07:56 PM |
| 3 | CMV: "I thought y'all chose the bear" is an immature response to women's frustration with datingso I'm not really seeing the "you chose the bear" comments as much as i see men saying they aren't approaching women because they've been told basically everywhere is off limits. This tracks because the latter is typically the more common response to "why arent men approaching me anymore?" now as far as i know about the man vs bear analogy, the only prescriptive takeaway of the man vs bear analogy is "dont make women feel unsafe". this begs the question "how?" and the easiest answer to that is t… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 21/12/25 03:57 AM |

| 1 | If women were not into men, there wouldn't be so many women being side chicks and humiliating themselves for a manI don't disagree that a lot of those people make the jump from "women's attraction [seems like it] behaves in this really unsatisfying way" to dehumanizing women, but how does the former automatically become the latter? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 19/12/25 04:57 PM |

| 3 | "Nice Guys" are basically an urban legendi'm not arguing that "women only like assholes" to be clear. just that the "nice guy" phenomenon isn't often (let alone always) the result of mean men being fake nice and getting mad that it didnt work | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/12/25 03:47 AM |
| 2 | "Nice Guys" are basically an urban legendI was only asking (in this reply chain) whether you meant "phenomenon" to mean "any pattern of behavior" or specifically "an unusual pattern of behavior" That said, i misread how the other person phrased their #3. i would agree with him if he phrased the "other guys treating her worse" not as what's actually happening (like he did) but rather as what the "nice guy" in his scenario perceived | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/12/25 03:32 AM |
| 2 | "Nice Guys" are basically an urban legendsome of us were told to be extra extra nice and extra extra considerate to the women we liked. and at first, that makes sense to a young early teen boy without experience because a girlfriend is closer than just a friend, so why wouldn't it work that way? meanwhile what's actually also needed to be attractive is neglected by the people first telling this kid how to navigate early dating, and/or is assumed to be intuitive to him because ???? reasons | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/12/25 02:27 AM |
