The thing is you seem to use the fact that they "aren't rational" as some sort of defense. When it isn't a defense at all. People need to control themselves and there is no real excuse or defense for not teaching them that.

Do you have a better idea for women to stop treating men that way? It is ridiculous to expect me to not pull upon my experiences with men when acting with them. Unfortunately, most racism comes from lack of exposure. This is the opposite situation sadly.

Most women come to the realization that "I have a boyfriend" works better in that situation from first hand experience. The only people who have the power to change this fact is men themselves because it is an observation based off male actions.

Except if they are female. You are trying to rebrand your misandry, but it is rational to teach people to control themselves. Not "hormones control my behavior so I am not responsible for my actions." Unfortunately, it seems that people do not wish to accept the fact that for the most part, men as given a pass for most of their life.

I don't buy the men can't control themselves trope. It does nothing but spread misandry.

The minorities in the US definitely have more of a sense of community. As someone part of a minority that is commonly grouped with whites it can be interesting to see where I end up getting grouped. Most people of middle eastern descent don't even have fair skin and its common for people to assume I'm hispanic.

Ah. The OP is actually not too far a stretch from what ugly or fat girls experience. They usually say stuff like "Men don't appreciate me" when they get turned down, walked away from, or walked past. They are then told to wear make up or lose weight. In those situations, there is usually no approach from a man. It is the other way around if it happens at all.

I think that's a good point to bring up. That is probably because of the wording you guys use. A lot of the red pill is not new, it is just the old rebranded again.

No.. what I'm doing is basing this off my personal experiences. It is pretty easy to identify men who are just looking for sex. It is pretty easy to identify men who play games and try to make me compete with other women. It is pretty easy to identify men who have conflicting values to mine. It is pretty easy to identify men that would not understand my past if they knew it. All it requires is some chatting with said guy and I can gauge where he is at with his life and what he wants. Why do you …

A lot of money vs not a lot of money is a relative situation. If you only have $20 for food and travel for the week then spending a few dollars on public transport is spending a lot of money on public transport. Again you fail to take into account what it means to be poor. Gives some examples of these better jobs that require no qualifications. The only person making false assumptions is you.

I have made points: It takes time and money to get a job. It takes time and money to train yourself to be qualified for a better job. You have done nothing to address those points objectively.

I think its really telling that you haven't addressed any points I made. Instead in my eyes you've made up some fictional girlfriend. If you would continue the debate please address the points. However its pretty clear that you do not understand the situation.

It takes time and money to find a job. Which means you have to deal with the funds that you have until you can find a better one. Maybe you aren't qualified for a better paying job and that takes time and/or money to remedy as well. Those who are dirt poor are usually trying to not be dirt poor. It is not an easy thing to overcome. I'm not saying its not possible to overcome, but it is not as simple as you believe.

You realize that you keep restating your point.. for what reason? I got it the first time. It doesn't discredit what I said. It doesn't even further the discussion. That's why I chose to ignore it. I'm not "misinterpreting" what you said at all. It has been dismissed. This is the point in my original reply. You are pulling a snowflake "you misunderstand me" because you have been dismissed.

You are so sure that people are misunderstanding you. This is not the case. I'm trying to make you aware of this fact. Nothing more.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/10/14 06:45 PM
8

My point fits directly into this discussion as it is a direct counterpoint to your argument. Just because you don't want to acknowledge that it does not require a misunderstanding to find TRP ridiculous does not make it go away. A lot of outrage stems directly from the actions of TRP. It doesn't require a misunderstanding of those actions to find them offensive and dismiss them.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/10/14 06:20 PM
12

My point is that it doesn't require someone to misinterpret you to dismiss you as ridiculous. Saying that it is just a misunderstanding is false. People are capable of seeing the TRP side and acknowledging it as ridiculous.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/10/14 06:05 PM
10

That it's not just a misunderstanding. When you use such deliberate offensive tactics you really give no reason for a person to take you seriously. You are dismissed because you are viewed as ridiculous. Not because people misunderstand you.
/r/PurplePillDebate22/10/14 05:53 PM

I disagree. The wording the Red Pill uses is to directly create outrage. You guys view it as a form of tough love. I think it's fair for people to dismiss you on those grounds. You use these tactics to get attention under the thought process that "all PR is good PR." However, this is not always the case as you are pointing out in this post. People are less likely to take your ideas seriously when they are presented in such a way. Take responsibility for the actions of your movement. Don't be sur…

What if your funds only allow to have roommates in a shitty neighborhood? Honestly, it sounds like you've never been dirt poor. Trust me those who are dirt poor do not wish to be, but it is not easy to overcome poverty. There are plenty of dirt poor men who do put up with living in a shitty neighborhood. This is the option they have, and given the microphone they will complain about their neighborhood too. You are really divorced from reality here.

I think in today's society the definitions get skewed because women are becoming more manly with high-powered careers and living on their own and men are becoming more womanly by being shushed and not allowed to act like boys when young (my personal observation - YMMV) so womanly is now more masculine than in the past and manly is more feminine due to the civilizing effects of today's world. This is valid. In fact I would agree, because women now have different expectations placed on them then t…

You don't get to define what is trivial for someone else. It doesn't work that way. You have yet to prove that dread game has any positive results. You just assert it as if it were true.
/r/PurplePillDebate18/10/14 05:47 PM

Again, if you assume everyone is shitty... they will probably be shitty. Dread game is to try to increase your happiness at somebody's expense it will come back at you eventually. The best way to deal with shitty people is to disengage them.

Yup. Okay. I just responded this to Tempest so I hope quoting it helps. To be feminine, is to be what women do as a whole. We describe certain physical traits as feminine because women have that trait more so than men. We describe certain activities as feminine because women do it more so than men. Feminine is not defined by any one woman but rather what the group does as a whole. Likewise masculine is the same thing but use men as the baseline rather than women. This is the reason that I disagr…

The thing is, when it is put out like this, yes I totally get it. Yes, I can understand self improvement based off a relationship constraint. Especially in a marriage when it has to deal with two people. You cannot be completely selfish in this regard. You have to deal with the relationship constraints, this is where most marriages fail. I was talking with Tempest it really baffles to me as to what if any of that has to deal with being "feminine." She describes it as the opposite of masculine, w…

I am trying to understand. That is why I'm asking questions. Which is the very opposite of having a closed mind. Regardless you still haven't even bothered to define "feminine" beyond "my husband likes it..." That's great, but kind of useless to anyone but yourself.
/r/PurplePillDebate18/10/14 04:17 PM
1

See I think this is kind of circular thinking. Your husband enjoys you being "feminine." So your husband defines what is "feminine," then? He gets to say what is okay and not okay? What is "feminine"? What is "masculine"? Women are feminine because we use what women do to define it. Saying "I am feminine woman" is redundant.

You describe yourself as "feminine" and from what I can tell that is not defined by you personally. That's what I mean. What is the purpose of that? Does it have any purpose beyond the internet?

You're argument is basically my anecdote doesn't match up with your anecdote so you are wrong. Cutting everyone out of your life that is shitty to you in some way is not only excessive(demonstrating a lack of endurance, empathy and understanding towards others) but can also leave people out considerably worse than they were before(leaving someone socially isolated, with fewer venues available to them to meet new people and make new friends, and creating enemies and bad blood along the way).

Except that most of the drugs percribed for the sole purpose of birth control are low dosage. You have to have a real problem to get a high dosage pill... The average woman taking a low dosage pill has moderately low risk of anything if she's not stupid and doesn't smoke with the pill. If you smoke you have to get the shot or implant which has a higher risk. Then I would argue she is already harming her body more with the smoking part. In the world of drugs low dosage HBC is relatively harmless.…

I think you misunderstand the premise of this question. When this question is asked in the real world it is a rhetorical question to point out a simple fact. The fact is, that no matter what you do as a woman there will be someone there to criticize you. It doesn't matter what we are talking about, or what your actions are. The basic premise is that you cannot please everyone so quit trying. Now when this directed at the RP my interpretation is that the BP is saying that those of you at the RP a…

I apologize for the late response to this but I've been busy and wanted to not rush a response to it. You have a very simplistic view on birth control. The first counterpoint to it is that hormonal birth control (HBC) is a prescribed drug. Meaning you have to go to a doctor to get a prescription for it. It is not possible to self medicate with HBC. This means that doctor's will prescribe them based off the needs of the patient. Doctor's can and do deny HBC to patients that they feel are at risk …

You misunderstand the concept of slavery. Slavery is to treat people as items, slavery is the worst form of objectification there is. Not wanting to do something doesn't make it slavery. What makes something slavery is to remove all rights of a person. To remove all self-determining behavior from a person because you "own them." That person has no control over their life, or what is expected of them.

I do not feel that you truly understand the culture clash between middle eastern and western cultures. But lets just focus on US culture. In the US it does not matter what you do as a woman there is always some man with a chip on his shoulder to tell you that you are doing it wrong.

People get less physically attractive as they get older but also people tend to want different things when they are older.

My 54-year-old aunt whose husband died roughly a decade ago is dating a man who is 53. My 50-year-old uncle gets annoyed with dating women younger than 40 because they are still trying to have kids.

Men are shamed as being predatory and lechers at pretty much every turn. Men just have shit sold to them on the basis of sexuality, but are considered to be 'manchildren' should they bite. If male sexuality wasn't shamed, you'd expect prostitution to not be the hallmark of supposed 'loser' men. Yet, it is. I wonder why? You are going to have to give some examples of this.

The answer states that different people want different things. Thus you must find someone with similar goals as you to have a long-lasting relationship. Bam done.

Again, you cannot define the terms of how people can answer within RP framework. It would be a RP answer then. Which is what you are trying to do. Again you give a RP answer to a question that specifically is asking for a non-RP answer. The point I am making is totally going over your head.

They didn't leave the question blank. They basically said "different people want different things." Which is a blanket generalization. You are RP so you are of the belief that you can generalize, that all women want X. That is a RP belief. That is what you and other RPers believe.

This is a really good way of explaining it. Science is more of a lifestyle than just a career for those of us who truly love it. Which is why I keep reading journals past what is require in my classes. Also, why my SO is a member of the alumni association because it gives him access to all the databases the university provides for a relatively small fee.

Then you aren't looking for a BP answer but a RP answer. You want them to back up your belief system or else you dismiss it.

The reason they say this about Marilyn is because of vanity sizing. It changes every few years, with the sizes getting larger. Though I really like your photoshop theory too.

Atheist. I believe that religion is what we use to understand our world when we have a lack of tools to understand. Basically, before the scientific method we used religion to explain things around us. Science has shown us that the world is so much greater than we could imagine.

If it makes you feel better, overly feminist circles don't understand me either even though I probably fit their description better. Most of the time they think I have some chip on my shoulder to compete with men. Which I often don't, not everyone who is career oriented is interested in the dog eat dog game. I have things I want to accomplish yes but it's not about being the best which is something that seems to be lost on the younger crowd of feminists.

The end of the war on reproduction rights. Really all that needs to be done is to remove all the "pork" conservative lawmakers have been throwing into abortion laws. In addition remove any arbitrary restrictions placed on clinics that makes them hard to operate in rural areas. Other than that a shift in poltical views so that this isn't a hot button issue anymore. Its kind of ridiculous that politics get in the middle of medical treatment.

I think its because we came at this from an odd angle. Yeah most would say we are evenly matched. This probably because we met in our late 20s opposed to the early 20s.

I can see how what I said could be interpreted that way. However I don't think it's accurate. As for my boyfriend yes he knows because we had these conversations at the beginning. He feels similar towards relationships that I do as well. I don't feel the need to be in a relationship for the sake of being in a relationship. I'm not afraid to be alone or die alone. I choose to be in a relationship with my boyfriend because it adds to my life. The reverse is true for my boyfriend as well. You see w…

Do you want a partner or not? The answer to this is actually, no. I am not interested in marriage/children or anything like that. Thus, I have very little drive to seek out men. Funny thing is they will seek out me, because they like the idea of partnering with me. You mention that women will come up to you because you have your shit together. Well that actually works the other way around as well. My current relationship is amazing, but my life was good before. It's not like I was pining away fo…

It's true that you can get ready to go to school, just like you can get "ready" for a relationship. While being in the right mindset can help, it doesn't really seem to matter towards ones success. If I'm in the right mindset but my partner is not, then we are equally doomed. In my case, perhaps I'm just too much of a recluse but I generally feel little to no drive to pursue men at all. The only reason I get into relationships is because of the reverse. Being lonely is not the greatest, but its …

See the thing is, I wasn't asking for me at all. I was trying to get you actually give examples of things that weren't platitudes. You platitudes just got more specific which is good. It is my opinion you are never really ready for a relationship. I was trying to see if you had any specific reasons as to why you thought you could be ready. It doesn't seem that this is the case.

I don't know of a specific case for sexual harassment. If what you say is true then it just means the laws haven't caught up to logic. Martial rape is a thing, thus sexual harassment is a thing. Rape is the worst form of sexual harassment there is.

Sexual harassment is a lesser charge than rape and that can be brought up. If thats the case then it just means it should be changed. Regardless, I can't tell if you want a law or personal view.

By the laws in the U.S. - yes. A man can rape his wife, so he can also sexually harass her. Depending on the state, but majority uses similar metrics to consent outside of a marriage. Now what might happen since, you know, it's a marriage, is that two people will establish lines between what is acceptable and not acceptable. Some women have more barriers and some men have more barriers - it all depends on the person. When you are in a marriage it is up to you to compromise and find what is an ac…

Do you really think it is possible to be ready for a relationship? I feel this is like saying "I'm ready to have kids!" which is something no one is ever really ready to do.

It is irrational to worry about what I call the "what if's" in general. It's the basic definition of paranoia. You are paranoid at best, insecure at worst and none of that is rooted in logic. It's all based off feelings making it irrational.

It is easier to prove that women simply were not given the same opportunities than the second statement. It is just not the case that women had the same opportunities in the past. For every influential woman you learn about in the past, you learn about something she had to overcome to become influential. This is why my personal feeling lend towards the first statement. The other thing people ask is where are all the female scientists because of feminism? In my opinion it is those same people tha…

That's a very interesting link. Thanks for linking it, and I can relate to it myself. My vision naturally doesn't have depth perception which was something I was unaware of for a large part of my life. Until I started wearing glasses anyway.

Unfortunately, history isn't on your side when you make this claim. There are women that have achieved this status. If you think this is false then you aren't looking hard enough in the sciences.

In that mega thread there were some productive discussions for sure. :) However, to be the whole idea of paternity certainty is still mainly rooted in an irrational fear. This doesn't make it less important in any way, but it also doesn't make it rational. I want to make it clear that I'm not saying you shouldn't feel this way or that you can't have this fear. The idea that it is rooted in logic to me is a rationalization of your feelings on the subject. Like I said before in most cases it makes…

It wasn't band t-shirts but I did have a friend who was making a quilt out of old summer camp t-shirts. Unfortunately, she kept coming to me for advice about how to make it look presentable. Most of the time we just ended up rearranging her different neon-colored squares and deciding it looked horrid in all configurations. It took many months of biting my tongue before she realized that neon-colored camp t-shirts just didn't really go together and ended up making several quilts with similar colo…

I can understand the premise usually. Like it makes sense to be angry if you get cheated on. It makes sense to be angry if find out your not really the father of a kid. It generally 'makes sense' if it were actually true. It would make even more sense if there were clear reasons to doubt it in your situation. (Time tables, etc) But, on the flip side it doesn't 'make sense' to accuse a loyal woman of cheating and get all bent out of shape over your own paranoia. What makes it not make sense is th…

Have you ever seen a landscape or portrait quilt in real life? I think it's true that women are less destructive, but women can definitely become really passionate and "crazy" about hobbies.

I'd say its less of a question of what men want and more of not understanding men's reaction to things. To me men are irrational because they have overreact to things. A good example of this was this thread a few days ago. While I don't want to rehash the argument it's this type of thing that makes men irrational. If you have no real reasons to doubt, then it is irrational to openly insult someone so close to you in this way. The thing is this is just one case where this kind of thing happens. I…
