As a woman, you don't have to work hard in your career. You're guaranteed a man making an upper middle class income. You can take sabbaticals, go backpacking, take a job for enjoyment instead of income, prioritize partying and social life in your 20s and early 30s and still come out good, stable and secure in your late 30s and 40s. As long as you can do the basic of having a healthy (19-21) BMI and not being crazy/mean, you easily can marry an upper middle class man making twice you are making.

At my job, there's a girl who's making as much as me (which is solidly upper middle class) who brags about her boyfriend who makes 600k+ (and will increase cause he's still young), his boss making mid 7 figures and his friends and coworkers making like 800k - 1.5mil, and it's not a lie cause I know his company pays that much. We work a very similar job, spent similar amounts of effort, and she's set for life and doesn't have to worry about anything just because she's a woman while I have to worry about working for a long time. Women only date down in income, so at best I'll only be able to date someone at my income, or more likely like 1/2 my income, so I'll have like 30-40% of her household income even though we put in similar amounts of effort working in almost the job/position.

I can't take long sabbaticals because the job markets can go to crap at any minute. I have to study on the side to get a better job. I can't relax with this financial insecurity. She can just relax and take it easy and be carefree with her financial security.

Women won the lottery by being born female.

Regarding the whole “what do you even have in common” argument. I’d argue there’s far more difference between girls within a age group than there are between age groups. Like there’s far more variance between different 20 year old girls than between the average 20 year old girl and the average 25 year old girl.

Weight classes at the Olympics is absolutely bs. The Olympics should be about being the very best and except the top weight class you aren’t actually the best in the World.

So if a guy is a bit delayed in his mental development shouldn’t he date down in age?

Ok I said I wasn’t coming back here for a few days and it’s true but I just have to say this

I wanted to go to the store with my mom to order a cake and I’m at school. My expectation was that I would go home and we would go together…. But no she’s asking me to meet her there and it’s making me sad. She’s treating me like an adult and I don’t like it. Now that I think about it I haven’t been in her car in months. I wanted to go WITH her not separately doing it together is what makes it special

And I’m also going to ask her if she can take off work on my birthday

I will never understand why "women are helping other women, men should help other men" is somehow an acceptable argument when used by leftwing individuals.

How is it not just a gendered version of nationalism, basically "my kind comes first and is superior" kind of thinking?

Then you have these people accusing men of not helping other men as if there are no ethical issues with women selectively helping other women. If any other group did this they would be accused of all kinds of isms.

How about humans helping other humans, men helping women and women helping men?

So recently Shannon sharp has been fired from undisputed and am personally very upset since he was always the most entertaining person on that show, and just the best Lebron fan l've witnessed

Speaking of King James, his about to enter his 21st season were he'll become the first player to average more than 25pts and potentially make an first nba all-star team selection

But yea am really gonna miss Shannon because l've been getting the best entertainment from him

Q4W

What would you say to your younger brother of college age who’d say that he has no luck with girls? Let’s say he tried approaching some girls, but was rejected every time.

gigrabbit · 2023-09-18T20:24:40+00:00

one take i see on here a lot that doesn't parallel real life is the idea that; when in a relationship, women tend to drive off men's friends and that adds to the male loneliness epidemic.

in my experience, me having any kind of friendship was a + 1. i actually believe women would rather me be friends with klan members than having no friends at all.

accountinghelpadviso · 2023-09-18T20:05:10+00:00

One common argument against all this red pill stuff is people just say “well there’s about as many women and men and most people end up in relationships so all of this male dating anger is overblown.”

What people don’t understand is the pairing up in LTR among men and women is decreasing in the modern age, so a lot of these single women with ridiculous standards are just gonna stay single or maybe drop them as they age.

You can find these sad women all over places like twox, FDS, LSA, vindicta. There are very sad women all over the place as well

meteorness123 · 2023-09-18T19:42:58+00:00

Competence, game, demographics, charisma, vibe - all these things are far more important as long as you're not below average looking. The thing is that the manosphere (respectively the blacpill sphere) might be a concentration of people who are below average so they zone in and consider looks to be the holy grail. This creates a discrepancy between opinions on the internet and opinions in day-to-day life.

adelaidemonkie · 2023-09-18T19:39:30+00:00

I started my first community college class today and I think half of my classmates are high schoolers in an accelerated program. Most of the men an appropriate age for me are not very appealing. I’m making a profile on a conservative dating website tonight.

eye_fuck · 2023-09-18T19:27:42+00:00

men still don't understand that being afraid is arousing for women. Men are so solipsistic that they never stop to think about physiology of sex and what it sex from pov of women and that it's only for men sex is tied to power, because they are the ones in power due to having thing that goes inside the vulnerable body of someone smaller and weaker than them.

For women sex is deeply interwined with fear — someone bigger and way stronger than them puts something inside their vulnerable body for their own pleasure and gets to control the whole process. Sex is for men is inherently aggressive action, pussy gets wet to not get damaged when confronted with it.

Fear, anxiety, nervousness — horny feelings.

meteorness123 · 2023-09-18T19:14:54+00:00

I like having female friends. The only problem is when they fall in love with you.

KevinDurantsDurag · 2023-09-18T19:11:37+00:00

I’m interested, for the people who are naturally loners or homebodies, and are struggling or have nothing in the sex/dating area , what would push you to go out more (or if you’re a loner who does go out, what would push you to try to meet more people?)? Or are you satisfied with your lifestyle even if it isn’t favorable to getting dates or casual sex?

odd_cloud · 2023-09-18T19:07:11+00:00

There are only several reasons why a woman may have an unsatisfactory dating life:

1) unlucky with looks 2) autism 3) unreasonable standards 4) passion for abusive morons.

accountinghelpadviso · 2023-09-18T19:05:30+00:00

Modern dating is honestly GG for dudes if you didn’t meet a girl in school or don’t have a social group with many single attractive and looking women.

What are your preferences that are not deal breakers. Like little bonus things that make someone more appealing but you can live without it.

Mine:

owns an AK-47

is into Korean horror movies

black hair

looks dead inside

be that guy that just seems to know everyone

owns an interesting older car (doesn't have to be expensive)

I'm hoping someone can help me find a hike that is eluding me.

My wife and I are staying at an Airbnb for the month in Oregon.
Before we came, my wife and I were looking up hikes. We found one hike that looked like the trail crossed over several streams/rivers that sort looked like fingers. I'm pretty sure there was a waterfall somewhere too.
We cannot find what hike that was. Anybody have any ideas on what it might be?

Katatonicsnake · 2023-09-18T17:52:32+00:00

Sometimes I wonder how much internalized misogyny I probably have. Mostly because I tend to prefer male teachers. I rarely like teachers, but when I do, they are usually men. It has been like this as long as I can remember, and seems like I haven’t been able to outgrow it. I really like my woodworking teacher, he actually makes me want to go to a class even when I would prefer to stay home. I don’t get along with my ceramics teacher, even though I recognize that she is extremely talented and I have so much to learn from her.

towerofcheeeeza · 2023-09-18T17:45:42+00:00

Was able to get tickets this weekend for a concert I knew my bf would want to go to. We didn't previously know about it, but I suddenly came across an email saying tickets were on sale. It took almost an hour but I was able to successfully snag them and seeing him so excited when I told him about it was worth every second.

crushmynutsplz · 2023-09-18T17:42:27+00:00

CMV: Modern-day feminism (toxic feminism) is an ideology of hatred.

If you had asked me 5-10 years ago, I would have called myself a feminist. I am no longer a fan of the current feminist talking points. I think the whole feminist ideology is sliding toward fascist ideas that look a lot like Nazism to me.

Take, for example, the reluctance to acknowledge the existence of misandry. For a long time, feminists rejected the idea that misandry exists. Now, however, the narrative has shifted...and if you ask feminists they'll say "oh, yes, misandry is real, but it's caused by the patriarchy! and misandry is actually misogyny!". As a man, this is complete nonsense to me.

There are lots of feminist ideas that make good sense. Women should have the right to choose what they do with their bodies, everyone should have access to birth control and we should all be allowed to abort every fetus if we feel like it (both men and women). These aren't really women's rights, these are human rights.

In fact, if you ask a feminist to tell you what rights a man has that a woman does not (in the West at least), they can't tell you because the answer is that men and women have the exact same rights, at least on paper. In real terms, women actually have many more rights than men. For example, the bar for hiring women is much lower in corporate America, there are many women-only welfare programs, housing programs, scholarships, investment opportunities, so and and so forth. Men are at a huge disadvantage in modern society in nearly every way, perhaps except for the fact that we continue to dominate the extremes due to variability (i.e., men tend to be the highest and lowest IQ people, highest and lowest performers in various trades, activities, sports, etc), and of course men are physically stronger than women and typically larger.

So what then, is feminism about these days? What is the fight about? When I dig deep, the only thing I can come up with is that feminists hate men, they want men to disappear, and they actually take pleasure in the suffering of men. In other words, modern feminism is an ideology of hatred.

Or am I wrong?

(I thought about posting this to /r/AskFeminists but it would be an instaban, obv. PPD is really one of the only places on the internet we can discuss these things anymore.)

Q4M (and women too tbh):

Should your social life be a factor when picking a career?

Conventional wisdom says that's a dumb thing to consider. But honestly, in post-covid society a lot of your friends are work colleagues. This is especially true in big companies/firms that are more tech-oriented.

You're going to have a better time socially and dating as say a lawyer in Atlanta than as a software engineer in Man Jose.

My boyfriend has started to smile a lot more, and I've found out that he is CRAZY attractive when he smiles. Apparently, he has gotten told to smile more by multiple women when they saw him smile. Last night, I told him whenever he smiles, I question whether I'm dating him mainly for his looks, cause he is so good looking when he smiles.

Critical_Lettuce2899 · 2023-09-18T16:37:30+00:00

Women claim they hate men with controlling behaviour yet they overwhelmingly fall for them.

Makes you wonder, do most women like men who control most aspects of the relationship?

Why do they friendzone passive betas if they hate controlling men?

InjectAdrenochrome · 2023-09-18T16:28:09+00:00

I think the most controversial thing I like in men are guys who own guns. Specifically guys who own AR-style rifles and are strapped at all times in public.

One of my exes and my current bf have a gun collection. Ever since I went shooting for the first time, I'm like you know what? Guns are pretty awesome.

4PointTakedown · 2023-09-18T16:16:41+00:00

Alright I'm about to change my flair to RP because for the first time in my life I think I hate women because of one word:

Ozempic

Holy fucking shit. The Health At Every Size movement has broken these women's brains. And I (was) a supporter at HAES (for women, men stop being losers and fucking lift). Like actually broken it irrevocably. And it's literally going to kill people.

So we have this amazing new drug, Ozempic and what it does is that it crushes your appetite. Basically this is the drug, the golden grail of public health. It could literally solve the obesity crisis. It could save us not billions but trillions over the course of a few years in healthcare costs. This is the holy fucking grail of weightloss drugs. It could create new paradigm in healthcare truly transforming the world more than anything since the fucking antibiotic/penicillin. Alexander Fleming eat your heart out, or rather don't.

So what's the issue? Well now the people who were part of the HAES are going "I spent so much time not worrying about the number on the scale and instead just focusing on being healthy, now I feel like I have to worry about the number on the scale again and that makes me feel bad :( :( :( :(. Obesity isn't a moral failing :( :( :( :( . And this medication makes me feel like this is a disease that needs to be treated with medication :( . I worked so hard mentally to not feel like that :( :( :( . WE NEED TO BAN IT BECAUSE IT'S HURTING US CULTURALLY AND IT'S GONIG TO CREATE A CULTURAL STIGMA AGAINST BEING FAT"

Oh my god. It is unfathomable to me. My anger is unbounded.

And the doctors aren't making it better either. The dumbfucks are like "Well we don't know what it looks like in 50 years if you've been on these drugs for a long time." Even though we do know what these people will look like in 50 years if they don't take the drug, fucking dead from a massive fucking heart attack.

If this causes these medications to become unapproved I'm going to have a full ass joker moment where I say we live in a society.

This is mindblowing and mindnumbing. Nothing about this is okay.

Q4M would you prefer

A. Girlfriend who fucks u enthusiasticly once a week/sometimes once every 2 weeks. The sex is very good and she is very enthusiastic.

B. Girlfriend who is always DTF. If u want it she will give it. But she treats it like a chore or starfishes a lot. But u still get pussy whenever u want

assume they both love u and r still affectionate outside of sex

HungerISanEmotion · 2023-09-18T15:35:10+00:00

Researchers estimated that 68 percent of romantic relationships start from friendship.

The super great part of dating within social circle, is... you don't have to be as careful.

When you date complete strangers... people can be deceitful and malicious as fuck! And one has to be careful, vet, know red flags, match commitment, etc.

But when you date within your social circle... you and your friends know them. If they are an asshole and hiding it, you are almost guaranteed to have a friend tell you about it.

So you can lose the anxiousness, relax, show self confidence.

AspiringMogger · 2023-09-18T15:16:12+00:00

I am 100% sure I have way too high standards for LTR dating. The women I want got better options lookswise, personality-wise, money wise. No woman I’ll ever be in a LTR or have been in a long term relationship with has ever been my first choice. It’s truly brutal to realise that the future that awaits me is betabuxxing. Only women I’ve been able to sleep with through dating apps and irl this past year have been women I’ve been unattracted to. Life truly isn’t what it was promised.

Critical_Lettuce2899 · 2023-09-18T15:15:16+00:00

The ability to cross post threads on other subreddits worked effectively as a fact check.

And Reddit got rid of the feature.

Reddit needs to bring community guidelines because the amount of inaccurate information is rampant.
