| 1 | Is Islamic culture misogynist? What are your views on it?Misogynistic is the hatred or dislike of women. I don't think that's the case. Maybe from a western liberal view, the way they were treated isn't so fair. You see, the bible and quran were written by men for men. Both religion are centered around male's perspective. Woman were defined by their relations with men, and were often the secondary character. There wasn't a 50 Shades of Grey moment in these religious texts (only Songs of Songs come close). | /r/PurplePillDebate | 15/06/15 12:13 AM |
| 1 | Are unattractive men invisible to women? Are unattractive women invisible to men? Scientific study on cognitive bias in estimates, attention, and memory when viewing attractive faces.Fixed ta-da. Just pointing out that line of thought is erroneous. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/15 04:56 AM |
| 1 | Are unattractive men invisible to women? Are unattractive women invisible to men? Scientific study on cognitive bias in estimates, attention, and memory when viewing attractive faces.First of all, this is not an evidence but one plausible explanation. The hypothesis that men (in uncommitted relationships) would overestimate the no. of attractive women was supported, but not the other way round. If you attribute this to bad memory, then wouldn't men be affected by it just the same? edited: wording | /r/PurplePillDebate | 05/06/15 04:48 AM |
| 3 | What are your thoughts on Paul Nungesser? Is he a victim?From the other thread: I agree that this is a wtich hunt, but if we don't take the side of the accuser, what's the alternative? We risk letting actual rapists walk if we don't believe the accuser. Despite the lack of evidence, you're advocating that the police "take the side of the accuser". See that's what pisses people off. I like the sound of this but the problem is that even if someone is cleared of wrongdoing, we don't know for sure if he did commit a crime or not, like in this case. The sa… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/06/15 02:51 AM |
| 8 | What do you think about Emma Sulkowicz? Is she a victim or not?I don't know for sure if you're a troll or not. But the evidence presented is insufficient to determine that you're one. Hence I will be civil with my responses until proven otherwise. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/06/15 04:16 PM |
| 8 | What do you think about Emma Sulkowicz? Is she a victim or not?Seriously I think you are trolling. What does his/her gender have to do with anything? P.s. Are you a woman? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 02/06/15 04:07 PM |
| 1 | What do you think about men who sleep with married women ?Nah the original post didn't state whether she is manipulated or not | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/05/15 04:14 AM |
| 2 | What do you think about men who sleep with married women ?That depends on the extent of care. I care if my neighbours didn't commit suicide in front of their house. Cos that will depreciate the value of estates around the area. But I don't care if a stranger half way around the world is cheating on his/her spouse. What I'm trying to say is it depends. On some level I care, on some I don't. I presume it's the same for most people. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/05/15 08:34 PM |
| 1 | What do you think about men who sleep with married women ?You are assuming she's manipulated, and not doing it out of her own will. As with any affair, the victims are both the married man and woman. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/05/15 08:23 PM |
| 5 | Why is Feminism considered to be about equality?Unfortunately I don't see that coming from modern feminism. Why? Feminists protest at Toronto. Men's Rights Lecture. Protein World Anita Sarkeesian Sarah Silverman lied about being paid less than her male counterpart. Guest spot. Wage gap. 77 cent stats taken out of context. 1/5 women on campus has been sexually assaulted/raped Jazz hand nonsense And that's just off the top of my head. Edit: "Recognizing gender as a social construct allows men to escape toxic forms of masculinity" would probably… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/05/15 02:20 AM |
| 3 | Women of PPD: Why should men *not* hate women?Your qn is weird. I wouldn't flat out call them 'misogynistic' groups. Some men are hateful towards women, some aren't. Same problem w Islam, some are terrorists some aren't. Calling it a religion of peace or violence is both unhelpful and only serve to derail any meaningful conversation. See now, RPers have to 'defend' that claim instead of answering the essence of your questions. Cos it's tiring to be negative all the time? Srsly Argh I'll skip to the next qn After realising what they been tol… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/05/15 02:14 AM |
| 4 | Why is Feminism considered to be about equality?Just curious. What about third-wave feminists? What are the things they have done that benefit men in the last decade? I'm thinking they ain't like how they used to be | /r/PurplePillDebate | 12/05/15 01:14 AM |
| 1 | Would you call this manipulation?Fair enough. I understand the look good feel good aspect. I'd like to say the intention behind it is a key determining factor too. Often when we talk about manipulation it involves a deliberate attempt to influence/control someone in a dishonest way. However, unintentional manipulation is possible too. Imo make-up is just a petty example of that, which I consider negligible. Comedians usually use it to tell jokes anyway. Breast enhancement, plastic surgery and sex change are more worthy consider… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/15 05:23 PM |
| 1 | Would you call this manipulation?Corrected. Take a look again. Nope I agree. Strictly speaking, it's still manipulation albeit minor. Real-life example here: a Chinese couple (both good-looking) married and had kids, but their child was unusually ugly. Turns out she had a plastic surgery prior to knowing him, and hid it from him. In the end he divorced and sued her. I acknowledge this is an extreme case though. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/15 04:19 PM |
| 4 | Would you call this manipulation?You know, sometimes men tell lies to leave a better impression on others Just to showcase how meaningless that statement is | /r/PurplePillDebate | 09/05/15 03:34 PM |
| 4 | IS "Rape" a Felony or a Moral Transgression?Both. First it is clearly a crime. Second, imposing your will on others while disregarding theirs and treating them as an object is morally wrong. Maybe someone more eloquent can better explain the moral aspect. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/05/15 08:05 PM |
| 6 | Are some men naturally feminine ?Do people have either masculine or feminine natural tendencies that they're supposed to develop ? It's not either or, but both. Men and women display both masculine and feminine traits at different times and frequency. Is it possible for some men to naturally have more feminine than masculine tendencies or for some women to have more masculine than feminine tendencies ? Yes for both parts. If yes , why do you think those people exist according to evo psych ? Biological (hormones), environment (s… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 07/05/15 04:51 PM |
| 2 | Why does feminism rarely, if ever, have anything critical to say about Islam?you sure live up to your name | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/05/15 08:27 PM |
| 2 | Why does feminism rarely, if ever, have anything critical to say about Islam?Crazy things are done in the name of religion. Remember Charlie Hebdo? Or Boston Marathon Bombing? If you do speak up about the treatment of women in Middle East, you may get death threats and lose your life. Another point is prominent feminists (Anita etc) are mostly concerned with the women in their own country or nearby countries. So of course they'd not speak up for women thousand miles away. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 03/05/15 03:52 PM |
| 4 | Are men hypergamous when it comes to commitment ?Men will settle for any woman decent in looks and personality. They commit pretty easily, and tend to look for women whose value are proportionate to theirs. Few would go after the most attractive one anyway. Well, those high quality men are most probably rich etc. Basically a man's only as faithful as his options - true to some extent. I mean Arnold Schwarzenegger slept with one of the ugliest human being. There you go, men are polygamous. P.S. Men's hypergamy - partner w best looks possible. M… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/05/15 05:34 PM |
| 5 | Is sex something worth ending a marriage over?Not necessarily. But lack of sex is usually an indication of emotional issues or lack of intimacy. Both of which exacerbate frustration, resentment, and all sorts of negative feelings. Sex is not just sex; it's more than that. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 01/05/15 07:34 AM |
| 1 | Stress undermines empathic abilities in men but increases them in women: Stressed males tend to become more self-centered and less able to distinguish their own emotions and intentions from those of other people. For women the exact opposite is true.Nice, you have my upvote | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/15 07:09 PM |
| 2 | Stress undermines empathic abilities in men but increases them in women: Stressed males tend to become more self-centered and less able to distinguish their own emotions and intentions from those of other people. For women the exact opposite is true.How do they usually relate to you? Examples? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/15 06:48 PM |
| 5 | Stress undermines empathic abilities in men but increases them in women: Stressed males tend to become more self-centered and less able to distinguish their own emotions and intentions from those of other people. For women the exact opposite is true.Yeah I vaguely recall reading an article saying an autistic woman's brain resemble more like a typical man's brain. For anyone interested, here's an autistic woman's account. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/15 06:22 PM |
| 6 | [Question for PurplePillers] What's your biggest point of disagreement with RedPill and BluePill?BP: It's a satire of Red Pill. They provide no alternatives, other than criticising and ridiculing RP. RP provides a framework that explains relationship dynamics and attempt to predict how women will act in certain situations. It can be useful but as with any ideology, take it with a grain of salt; think for yourself whether its completely true, partially true, or false. Many RPers don't question what they read, so I can see how the sub turns into a cesspool of anger and bitterness. Nevertheles… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/15 06:17 PM |
| 2 | If sexual strategy is amoral, does that mean mental maturity is something to take advantage of?It is said that human brain does not fully mature until at least the mid-20s (25 give or take). Most people wouldn't delay LTR/sex just because of this, neither should you. Don't break the law, ensure she's of legal age, avoid the crazies and you'll be fine. Regarding marriage (if you intend to), it's better to wait till you're 25 or older first. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/04/15 08:10 AM |
| 3 | What # makes a slut?It is only women who have more than one intimate premarital relationship who have an elevated risk of marital disruption. Here. I presume it's due to evolutionary reasons why women are more affected by the number of premarital relationship (w sex or not) they have. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 29/04/15 05:21 PM |
| 3 | Fat feminism (fat acceptance) is stupidYeah remember Protein World? | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/04/15 06:48 PM |
| 1 | Men 7x more likely to leave wives with cancerI did imply it when I said "if he dies, she can get some money/assets out of it". | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/04/15 04:15 PM |
| 1 | Men 7x more likely to leave wives with cancerI stand corrected then. I wonder how this will play out among different cultural groups like Japanese, African etc. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/04/15 03:02 PM |
| 2 | Men 7x more likely to leave wives with cancerIt's hard to determine with the sample size (515 patients), plus iirc this is the only study of the phenomenon by far. You'll probably need thousands (or more) to gather meaningful data. I can only hypothesise why women are more likely to stay. Pardon the cynic in me: IMO women are concerned with social appearances so if she leave when he needs her the most, it will reflect badly on her. Also if he dies, she can get some money/assets out of it. Lack of provision matters more to women than a sick… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 28/04/15 01:57 PM |
| 1 | I wrote a letter to my wifeThat's what he's planning to do anyway. When he's done with this, he'll go back to doing whatever he's doing: You're upset because I hurt you last week. I'm upset because you've been hurting me for the past 10 years. I won't keep living like this. I can't. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/04/15 02:07 PM |
| 0 | I wrote a letter to my wifeI got a feeling action speaks louder than words, but you know, let the man sees for himself. Experience is the best teacher. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/04/15 01:56 PM |
| 1 | I wrote a letter to my wifesounds interesting. Will she 'hamster', or change her attitude towards sex? Think of it as doing an experiment, give it a try and let us know. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 27/04/15 01:47 PM |
| 2 | Are women inherently manipulative?yeah my bad, I realise I should have provided more context for the question. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/04/15 07:01 AM |
| 2 | Are women inherently manipulative?interesting, found it. I can't find other studies, let me know if you find (or know of) a different one. total of 515 patients Women composed 53% of the patient population. Divorce or separation occurred at a rate similar to that reported in the literature (11.6%). There was, however, a greater than 6-fold increase in risk after diagnosis when the affected spouse was the woman (20.8% vs 2.9%; P < .001). Not sure if the sample size was sufficient or how they calculate the numbers, but that's what… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/04/15 06:47 AM |
| 2 | Are women inherently manipulative?FIFU great* | /r/PurplePillDebate | 26/04/15 06:38 AM |
| 1 | Are women inherently manipulative?Agreed. I'd say a large part of it is innate: They're predisposed to behave this way. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 06:07 PM |
| 2 | Are women inherently manipulative?Yeah I also find that they rationalise or 'hamster' their actions more often than not. So it could be like they somehow convince themselves that their actions were right, then proceed to give that explanations to others; thereby indirectly manipulating them. Or they are aware but they don't care. Or both. Who knows. Thereby their words seem to carry less weight. I have this idea that women love men for his provisions (pay the bills, houses etc), while men love women pretty much for who they are … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 06:03 PM |
| 2 | Are women inherently manipulative?Good point. You gave me more ideas to think about. Will definitely give more thoughts to my question next time round. It seems to me that women rationalise their actions more so than men. Like they're not that self-aware or that they're aware but still choose to go ahead anyway. I just wonder how does it all works in their head. Sorry if I sound incoherent and all over the place. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 05:36 PM |
| 2 | Are women inherently manipulative?I didn't write "Are women more manipulative than men?" because I didn't want to make it a guys vs girls thing. I phrased it this way because it seems like women in general have a greater capacity for dissimulation. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 05:24 PM |
| 5 | Can you give examples of how western society is feminized ?It's hard not to say things were made worst by third wave feminism; when they perpetuate lies such as the wage gap, and rape statistics that's taken out of context which creates fear in women etc. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 03:50 PM |
| 5 | Can you give examples of how western society is feminized ?Not really. In my opinion, the third wave of feminism made things worst. Wage gap, 1 in 4 women in college get raped, false rape allegations etc. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 03:23 PM |
| 1 | Can you give examples of how western society is feminized ?Actually I wasn't. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 12:02 PM |
| 3 | Can you give examples of how western society is feminized ?Not going to debate about this. But the end results remain. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 11:12 AM |
| 7 | Can you give examples of how western society is feminized ?I agree w what you said. Though I'm not so sure about the statement, "The law is gender neutral." If you look at other aspects of it (rape, assault etc), clearly it's in favour of women. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 09:50 AM |
| 8 | Can you give examples of how western society is feminized ?Pretty easy. Check your state law or your country's law. Most of the time it's in favour of women. Divorce settlement. Men who earns more than his wife, risk losing half of the marital asset (mostly contributed by him) to the wife. Child custody. Women often get the kids unless it's proven that she's unfit. Alimony. The chief provider (often men) has to provide financial support to his/her spouse after separation or divorce. Women who raped men are rarely convicted of rape, they can usually get … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 25/04/15 06:03 AM |
| 2 | Blue Pill and Purple Pill : Why do you disagree with TRP ?Just want to point out something. You're using the term 'hypergamy' wrongly; in the traditional sense, it refers to the act of marrying upwards (to someone wealthier or of a higher social status). In that sense, women in general are more hypergamous than men. Men generally don't care if the woman he's going to marry is richer or of a higher social status. Of course there are rare exceptions. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 08:32 PM |
| 2 | Who has it easier, men, or women?Nah (that men have life easier than women) I'd argue that being male or female is a different ball game. I would still choose to be a man, cos I can do whatever I want in the guise of being an asshole. And be able to tell crude jokes that most women can't or are not able to. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 24/04/15 07:05 PM |
| 2 | If the male wealth advantage is fair, then why isn't it fair that women have a physical desirability advantage?hmm what's your point? I'm confused From what I gather from the title: "If the male wealth advantage is fair, then why isn't it fair that women have a physical desirability advantage?" The word 'fair' suggests someone has a hand in this, which I don't believe so. Evolution just happened, and both men and women have different predispositions. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/04/15 06:22 PM |
| 1 | Why Do All Guys Think They're The 'Nice Guys'?Perhaps he doesn't have any other redeeming qualities. I remember joking with a friend once, that when a girl compliments a guy as being nice, that usually means she has nothing else to say about him. Nothing good anyway. Bad qualities gets mentioned first, then the good, and when there is nothing else to say, 'nice guy' is used. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 30/03/15 12:55 PM |
