| 6 | Clarification about the BDSM rule?Plenty of us have been 'into' it - led to believe it was the best way to practice our sexuality, that it was 'liberating' to be abused in this way. Especially when we were very young, at the hands of older partners. BDSM was packaged for and marketed to vulnerable young women as a way to TrUsT your partner. Not the truth. I don't think you're in the right place. This sub is strictly anti-porn, anti-bdsm, anti-extreme fetishes/kinks. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 06/07/20 05:49 PM |
| 2 | Clarification about the BDSM rule?Agreed! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 06/07/20 05:48 PM |
| 8 | Clarification about the BDSM rule?BDSM is just another way for porn-addicted men to abuse their partners in the name of kink/sexuality. And we, as women, are told off for not being into what is because it is, as you said, a perfectly healthy way to explore sexuality and have fun while being intimate Shouldn't it say something about men who are into BDSM, that they need this level of extreme stimulation and must inflict pain onto their partners to get off? This isn't a sub for promoting abuse. BDSM is abuse, intentionally. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 06/07/20 05:42 PM |

| 82 | Jay Z will always be kinda weird to meTheir relationship is the epitome of the fact that women are taught to settle and accept, while men, even if they have a face and personality that only a mother could love, think that they almost deserve more. They enjoy taking away from women, molding women into their ideal partners, but still leaving them out in the cold. She IS a dreamgirl in every sense, but that could never change that he's an LVM. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/06/20 04:45 PM |
| 59 | Advice/thoughts on the 90 days before sex rule?The essence of the 90 day rule is to see whether a man is still worth dating if/when his mask slips, which is usually three months in, maybe longer, but rarely shorter. This protects us from becoming too vulnerable, only for our new BF to turn out to be a complete LVM who got tired of acting potentially high value. My tips: I would super strongly recommend against bringing up any number, or specific time frame. This could feel super formulaic and I wouldn't feel great about a guy counting the da… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/06/20 04:37 PM |

What I've noticed is that men from cultures like ours want modern perks (as much sex as they want before and during marriage, the freedom to be a loser) and traditional control (wife can never outpace them in any way). Basically all rewa… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 24/05/20 03:29 PM |
| 13 | Weekly FDS Chat, Check-In, Quick Questions Answered 5/22/2020I hear that... I've been thinking about how I feel compelled to look my 'best' in professional settings, but how that always feels like it's tinged by the male gaze or something. I don't know how to word it. Some LinkedIn posters are starting to look like Instagram models :(. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/05/20 04:55 PM |
| 5 | Weekly FDS Chat, Check-In, Quick Questions Answered 5/22/2020This is so hard, but you already know you'll be better when you move on, which'll be so much sooner than you realize. Yes, you're in love with him, but your love deserves and will find someone better. There will be someone who lifts you up, someone who won't exhaust you. <3 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/05/20 04:54 PM |

| 26 | Weekly FDS Chat, Check-In, Quick Questions Answered 5/22/2020Having a severe case of FOMO, I feel like I focused too much on work and school, so I don’t have many friends + haven’t traveled at all, and now I’m thinking of all of the times when it was safe to travel but I just didn’t! Really wish I could meet like-minded women. It’s hard to open with “Porn is bad for women and we should stop planning our lives AROUND men.” when it’s the era of OnlyFans and “propose to him, it’s 2020!”. A dear friend is planning on throwing her life away for her husband who… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 22/05/20 04:27 AM |
| 6 | He’d recently been arrested for kidnap, rape, sodomy and assault with a gun and was out on bail when he shot the mom of his 4 yr old daughter. RUN AND NEVER ALLOW AN ABUSIVE MAN NEAR YOU AT ALL EVER FOR ANY REASON!She survived - I’m AMAZED he was let out so early and allowed to be within walking distance of any woman or child. But am I really surprised? | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/05/20 01:31 PM |
| 129 | Husband gets wife DEMOTED from high level corporate job because she’s being “UNUSEFUL” [sic] at home.I'm shocked that the boss took the husband's call into ACTUAL consideration. I feel like she can and should sue him into high heavens. This is horrible overstepping and meddling on BOTH the husband and the boss' side. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/05/20 08:15 PM |
| 177 | Couple I’ve known since HS. Together 11 yrs and SHE had to propose, after yrs of bringing up marriage. She’s also in a PhD program at an Ivy League — she can do way betterELEVEN years?! He's willfully wasting her time. Betting he's a 'male feminist' (in the style of, 'liberate yourself by wasting your life on me with minimal commitment while my idea of putting in effort is barely showing up'). | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/05/20 04:28 PM |
| 489 | Not having a father to show you how to be a man is not an excuse to be a piece of shit. Fatherless men can be good men if they want to be.So wholesome. He could've chosen any way to handle and process the aftermath of his dad leaving, and he chose the absolute best way :'). | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/05/20 02:20 PM |
| 2 | Starting to seriously discuss marriage with BF: what should I be mindful of?Sometimes it's not a matter of conversations as much as taking a step back and having a good look at the big picture. This is true, though I'm worried that some things need to be hyper-clarified and dissected, you know? Though - my answers to all of these questions are positive, so I'm glad I've seen him in/we've collectively been through some very, very difficult situations and circumstances! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 11/05/20 08:44 PM |
| 37 | Early signs he's no good in bed or with communicationTo add on to #1: if a man is picky with food but will never take responsibility for working around his own preferences (not allergies!), run. Momma's boy who has been pandered to right there. (personally, it's really important to me that a partner be open to trying my cultural foods, so pickiness is a full-on incompatibility.) | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 07/05/20 01:22 AM |
| 3 | Never date men that are "cheap" in their mindset ...Imagine not giving a shit enough about your LTR that you're unwilling to pawn off or sell a ring attached to a past relationship and just get a new one. That's it he had to do. And he didn't do it. Hope she really thinks this through. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/05/20 07:19 PM |
| 3 | As follow up to a recent discussion here, I propose we create a #NoGoodDesiMen flair.Loving the presence of Desi women on this sub. As a Desi-American it feels like such an uphill battle to not even command, but just to EXPECT basic respect from men. I just refuse to deal with Desi men for this reason. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 04/05/20 07:13 PM |
| 8 | How do you define a man who isn't sensitive enough, or is "too unemotional"?I don't, generally, believe that vulnerability = weakness. And I do believe that sensitivity to a partner's needs can show overall sensitivity - it's harder to try and actively love someone than it is to be apathetic and withhold affection. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/05/20 04:12 PM |
| 19 | How do you define a man who isn't sensitive enough, or is "too unemotional"?It's usually a pretty big red flag, IMO, if anyone shares a Big Traumatic Life Event of Which They Are The Helpless VictimTM early on, and it's pretty different from being sensitive or emotional. A man who isn't sensitive enough, or is too unemotional, in my opinion... Never says "I love you" first (or only says it when he knows he's in the dog house) Won't be thoughtful with gifts, actions, or words (i.e. will get you flowers out of obligation, or gets a card because he feels like he has to, bu… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/05/20 03:05 PM |
| 1 | Is the height issue exaggerated in part because most men lie and many women don't know what a given height looks like?...neither. South Asian, something like Kirti Kulhari with darker skin and a smaller frame. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/20 07:40 PM |
| 2 | Is the height issue exaggerated in part because most men lie and many women don't know what a given height looks like?I’m a brown woman with plenty of personable merits who would never get second looks from most men solely due to my race. But I’ve realized that being angry about that, towards all men who I thought were shallow, just made me bitter, and I hated myself even more. Stop painting all women with a broad brush stroke, man, you’re seriously just going to hate yourself more for it. My BF has expressed that his biggest concern has always been respect from OTHER MEN, and not women. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/20 04:40 AM |
| 2 | Is the height issue exaggerated in part because most men lie and many women don't know what a given height looks like?We met in person. He asked me out in person. I was 100% aware of his height being identical to mine when I said yes, and have continued to date him for 2 years. Not everything is happening on OLD. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/20 04:18 AM |
| 6 | Is the height issue exaggerated in part because most men lie and many women don't know what a given height looks like?YEP, this is it. I don't really care about height as long as he 'looks' the same height as me (I'm average height, but pretty lanky). It's just a bad, bad sign if someone is standing shoulder-shoulder with me and is insisting they're 5 foot 9. We are both 5 foot 4 and it's OK! | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/20 02:46 AM |
| 6 | Q4W: How Many of You Want To Marry and What Does Marriage Mean To You?I want to get married. For the warm fuzzies, sharing and building a life together, to have a family. It's an emotional, physical, and, yes, legal commitment to be together. It means we have shared goals, values, and hopes. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/20 02:36 AM |
