In the same way I don’t want to put my hand in a snakes den, I just don’t want to go out of my way to increase the likelihood I am hurt dramatically for almost no payoff.

/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 05:41 PM

Again yeah from a male perspective this is how i feel. But I come at it from a givers perspective. I wouldn’t have a problem serving someone I was not attracted to, I just think the important bits won’t work.
/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 05:35 PM

I have a very high sex drive, but I am not willing to have sex with women I have no attraction to. I can’t really relate to the type of man to find a woman unattractive but still sleep with them.
/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 05:14 PM

It doesn’t vary— I’ve had sex with women I’ve been more attracted to and less attracted to and I don’t remember there being any variance. It might affect my physical performance but as far as pleasuring a person it doesn’t matter.
/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 04:35 PM

Duncan answered your question exactly the way I would have. It’s not the same, but it’s a different kind of fun. And you end up connecting with them, too. I have always said that my bar for sex is the same as my bar for having sex is about the same as having someone over my house 1 on 1.
/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 03:41 PM

I disagree that he would do better per encounter, but I agree that the average man will have a greater volume of interested women than the hot man. I just think the hot man is more likely to be accepted by the women that find him attractive and he will receive more leeway for his social faults. I think a lot of bpers ultimately want to become hot enough that their social deficiencies are excused ignored or romanticized.
/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 03:39 PM

Right, and for some people even when they’re out at a bar and socializing among friends, a stranger approaching is a source of anxiety for them, not fun. All I’m really arguing is that you seem to be having a general positive experience because you enjoy the process of meeting strangers, which a lot of these men do not enjoy. If they enjoyed it, they’d probably have a better dating life, lol. I know I would.
/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 01:40 PM

That’s not what I intended— it just sounds like you enjoy a random encounter. I love socializing too— with people I already know. A lot of people— men and women are this way.
/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 01:08 PM

I mean I enjoy the act of pleasuring someone. They don’t need to be the light of my life for it to be enjoyable.
/r/PurplePillDebate04/08/26 01:02 PM

If you want a relationship/children, you have to play the game whether you want to or not. Also, are you extroverted? You sound like you enjoy socializing.

But my post mentions abusers. Physical and sexual abuse or felonies. Oh. Those guys try. They’re just not good at it. What I'm saying is that the incels complaining about abusers can't even be a dickhead to women, much less an abuser. How do you try to be an abuser? I feel like it's a pretty binary event based on actions taken. I’m going to need an example from you. I don't have anything but anecdotes.

I know we are talking in a separate comment thread, but in my response to the OP I addressed this part of your post.

See, you guys don’t want to hear when people say your actions might be conveying the opposite of what you’re feeling. What actions??? This is what I'm asking you to prove. What actions are people taking? The fact that it’s only a problem when it’s someone the man it’s interested in says a lot. But go ahead and complain about me criticizing how bad your words sound, proving me right. I will actually take this criticism, I used a poor choice of words.

Thanks for showing YOU dont listen. This whole post has been about behavior. I read through your post for the 4th time just to make sure I didn't miss anything. Nowhere in your post do you list a single behavior. The closest you have is this: Also, most men also do not spend their time victim blaming abuse victims, resenting women, or treating basic decency like a service that should be rewarded with sex. Which is just at best your interpretation of someone's feelings. And when they tell you "No…

But you aren’t talking about behaviors, with are material, though. Like I said if people act crazy, I agree with you. Nice guys aren’t bad because they feel the way they feel, they’re bad because of the abuse they fling at the women who reject them. Are the actions these commit make them assholish things? Are the words they say to the women they’re interested in offensive? Whiny? Entitled? Or is that your perception based on private online conversations? Writing an anonymous comment online is an…

That was not the argument you stated, though. When you say things like “They want her to see them as a savior and reward them with sex, admiration, and gratitude” this is you directly saying “When you say you feel this way actually you feel this way!” This is not about facts. Thank you for proving my point that you don’t listen when people are talking to you. You can prove that someone is in a situationship or not because situationships are an action(or lack of action, in not defining the relati…

You can’t decide to disagree with someone else’s feelings. This isn’t a disagreement on reality— you don’t get to say “Actually when you guys say how you feel you actually mean x”. This proves that at least you don’t listen.

I knew it was a thread from you based on the title. Anyway, no, most men who talk about the way abusers treat their partners with surprise and frustration is because when you are told that your personality is the problem, and you look at men who literally abuse women, it is discordant. By virtue of not hitting a woman I am not a paragon of humanity, but I am better than anyone who ever hits a woman. Full stop, argue with the wall on that one. So, a lot of men like this, who are inexperienced and…

that is an aspect of patriarchy that WOMEN SEEK TO FREE MEN FROM ALSO. I do not believe that. I don't believe that most feminists believe this. You can just look at data on who's getting married, articles on men not stepping up financially enough, etc etc. I think most women seek to be divested of the female gender role which was oppressive, but don't introspect about what they expect out of men. The male role has not changed in part because it is not attractive to act unmanly. that is neither h…

I understand what you mean— I still disagree with you. I do not think women(at large) are willing to give up what it means to be a woman under patriarchy— which comes with certain privileges and from what I’ve seen women at large don’t want to give those things up, which reinforces men to present in harmful ways. Like you said, patriarchy is a comprehensive, invisible force. We are all complicit— even women uphold the patriarchy. I guess I should have said that until women examine their role in …

You're really underselling the genital surgeries here. Supporting someone's right to do it doesn't mean I find it appetizing to put my body parts in there. There are things with sex with cis women that would be different with trans women at least now. In a hypothetical future where trans women could actually change their parts to a cis woman's, I would have no qualms at all dating a trans woman.

I think that Jamie has more feminine features that women like in guys. Women don't typically like giant muscle men so a thinner guy with tighter proportions is probably more attractive in jamie's case. In Ryu and Alex's case though it feels like they were made in a lab to be sex appeal. I think they actually gave Ryu a beard in 6, because they gave him a skin with a beard in 5 and everyone was drooling over him. And if you haven't seen Alex's trailer you should, lol.

What does that have to do with being bi, then? What does that even have to do with being in a relationship? If a man is committing to you he's committing to you, so no matter what he would 'like' to do if it is outside of the confines of the relationship normal people don't step outside those bounds.

It is a projection to say that the majority of men are alright with a bi partner because they want a threesome. The straight men who fetishize bi-ness in their partners is also problematic, and should be shamed for their prejudiced ideas on what a bi woman is.

Homophobia doesn't mean you have to be afraid of gay people. Bigoted, incorrect, and hateful opinions on LGBT people are homophobia even if you aren't spooked by them. I don’t think cultural or religious aversions to dating/marrying bisexual people are automatically homophobic. I can't imagine a single instance where this would be true. Maybe in the hypothetical.

Why do men care about body count? First of all, people who care about this are weirdos, and the reasons they care are often ad hoc justfications for insecurity. But anyway- Having a high body count is an action, not a state of being. A bi man can be bi and not act on that bi-ness whatsoever. If people like you said they couldn't imagine being with a man who got fucked by another man or something, I'd agree with you on this point. Sexual past, sexual preferences, sexual wants... they are very imp…

The second time. Then it seems like we have a similar barometer for when things get uncomfortable for us. they absolutely know women enthusiastically consent to sex even if they haven't experienced it themselves How would they know what that looks like?

I know no one asked me too. That’s the almost the same reason I broke up with my partner at that time. And “asking for sex was becoming coercive” how many times did you ask before you felt that way? You asked me why men will accept lukewarm women and I answered that they don’t know anything else. That’s the answer imo.

The idea is that "coercing a woman into sex" should be an intolerable potential outcome for anyone, while "not having sex" is a perfectly acceptable potential outcome for anyone. I agree with you. I believe I'm hyper aware to this to the point it is detrimental to my dating success. However, I refuse to be romantically involved in an asexual relationship- I've dealt with it once and I have absolutely zero interest in putting myself through that again.

There has only been one time I asked a girl if she wanted to have sex and she said no where I asked her again. I tried to see if she wanted to have sex on the 4th date, and she said she wasn't ready. I said that was fine, and continued to date her for another month. I asked if she would be more open to it, and she said she still wasn't ready. I did not ask for another 3 months, hoping she would it up herself, and dropped her when I figured nothing was going to happen. My regret is that I did not…

I'm not playing a game with you. I said a portion of women feel one way. You have just now said 'Lots of women find men repeatedly asking for sex to be coercive.' And I think that greatly helps my argument. Some women act the way I said before, some women act the way you are saying now. What does that mean? It means that women are different, and you can't approach all of them with the same stock responses and practices. I feel like the blue pill(I won't blame you specifically, but I'm almost sur…

You won't be able to convince me that asking more than a single time is coercion. There are plenty of examples of women who said no one day, and then when asked a month later have a genuine yes. Lots of women want to have sex and do not make a single movement in that direction, because it is 'men's work.' Personally, I have about 2 asks in me before I will drop someone. But asking once and then asking again at a later date is not weird.

The logic is that if they don't want to and are fine with the results of that there is nothing you or I can do about that. If you or I don't want to take the risk to pester every woman we see into dating us we don't have to do that either, but expect the man who does the birdshot approach to eventually land on one girl who wants to date but does not want to take any action to do so.

Nobody actually believes in equal dynamics between men and women. If that were the case, men who want equal dynamics would be trying to figure out a way for the male body to gestate and birth children, but so far men do not want this. Hmmmmm lol. I mean.

Even if I granted you that, which I’m not, they have a relationship outside of the bounds of normal courtship. You’re not supposed to sleep with other people in a relationship but they communicated that and made it different— any other relationship defining terms should be laid out similarly.

They really should have spoken very clearly about what each of them want if they’re going to have such an off the beaten path relationship. This is the kind of relationship where everything needs to be communicated, and she had a desire she did not communicate. Do you think the man should have read her mind and think when she didn’t bring it up she secretly wanted a relationship?

Oh, sorry. Forgot to answer that. The woman I'm currently talking about we spoke yesterday at around 8am and she hasn't responded. Another girl was saturday the 11th, and the other was the 7th. The girl from the 7th is the only one that I have a natural lead in for. I've gone on quite a few dating app first dates.

What does an exclusive kink/open relationship mean? I have no idea how open and exclusive interact there, lol. Still though, this is on her for not communicating her needs in my opinion. I firmly believe that if this had happened to me I would know to suck it up, because I just made assumptions.

The last time I dated someone for more than a month she wasn't flakey but she was very mentally unwell. I think I do attract a lot of flakes but it could be more dating apps than their nature.

I think I match with some very pleasant, normal women- but they don't get off the texting.

I agree, logically. Every time I match with someone it's a new roll of the dice, and women do not owe me anything. I can only pull the slot machine so many times though. I understand that any individual girl I match with does not owe me her time, but when no one is treating your time as worth considering it gets hard to keep it pushing with a smile.

Hmm. I agree with almost everything, but I would argue that 'Acting in more attractive ways' if that isn't who you are is still just trying to get girls who don't like you to like you.

It's more that I went from "This is never going to happen and you should stop caring about it" to "Wait this might happen" which was a mistake.

But then I went and started to try again, and I think that was a mistake because it undid a lot of progress emotionally.

Really all of the experience men need is just having some female friends and talking to women. I don't think this is true.

I think you are correct, but like you said, women don't want to do this(and they shouldn't have to). I've seen this play out a thousand times because I was a nerd surrounded by nerds.

Offense and bitterness are not behaviors nor are the words, though. How I feel only manifests as harshly as you allow- at least as long as you're aware of the emotions.
/r/PurplePillDebate17/07/26 02:15 PM

Do I have typos? Let me try to explain it a different way: I think undermining sexual abuse that women have faced as a man is wrong. However, I do believe that the emotion- bitterness- is not something someone can control. I do think you can eliminate the emotion 'offense' however, as each individual woman does not owe you anything. Bitterness, to me, is an emotion that comes gradually due to your material conditions not matching your desires.
/r/PurplePillDebate17/07/26 02:09 PM
1

I guess I agree, then. Just not for the reasons presented in your text body. Especially when the men get bitter where they undermine sexual abuse and make certain issues a competition. I think undermining sexual abuse is wrong, however you I don't think avoiding some level of bitterness is possible. I think eliminating offense towards a particular person is possible, though.
/r/PurplePillDebate17/07/26 02:03 PM

What are you arguing? What does offended mean here? I've read your text body, but I don't know what it has to do for offense. Why would women separate from yourself being judged make you feel less bad about the fact that you're judged, too? I guess under my interpterion of the word offended, I agree that men shouldn't be offended because it's a useless emotion. But that's because it doesn't get you any closer to your goal, not because I think women have it hard in dating.

To me, pain is NOT neutral. I avoid pain! I choose happiness 24/7. I do my best to avoid pain but there's nothing to do after it's already happened. A few months ago I broke my jaw. It sort of sucked. But while the pain radiated really badly, ultimately there was just nothing I could do about it. You can just accept something is going to be painful- thats sort of how I see my desires at the moment.

The only time that mind over matter works is if you take it to a positive place... Well, that's not true. The reason to go to therapy is because negative thoughts cause negative realities, right? If I were you I would really just start to accept what is (because it might actually take you to a good place)... I try to react to this information and these feeling neutrally. Pain is neutral.

/r/PurplePillDebate16/07/26 04:30 PM

That's because it's literally a built in male urge... And for some people it is nothing but a burden. Some men are willing/able to will their body into not having these urges, but most men (99.x%) cannot do this...and they should not try to either. I agree with you that while some men can, most men won't and couldn't. But if I could take a pill to neutralize my desire for a relationship I absolutely would.

They just shouldn't obsess over it. As much as people like to say 'Just reset your mind bro' unfortunately at least for some people relationships and sexual urges cannot be prayed away.

For some men? Maybe. But no, this would not be sufficient for me. I've lived with a male roommate who is my best friend of over 10 years.

Because being a jester is an insult, not a prescriptive term. This is something men see other men do and tell them they are jestering, because some women will treat him like a pet.

Attractively dressed? I’m not sure what you mean by that. I desire a romantic relationship and I also desire sex. For some people that is linked and it happens to not be for me. I don’t need to love the people I have sex with, I just need to like them as people— the same way I would feel about inviting a friend on a 1 on 1 hang out is about the emotional safety it needs for me to have sex. And separately from that, I have the life goal of being a father, and badly want to love someone and choose…

Honestly? If she was kind to me and treated me like a friend, that is enough that I would not complain. I don’t need someone to be in love with me but i would like them to be in like with me. It is not my optimal— but I think the emotional aspects of loneliness I am currently able to 80% supplement. It hurts having no one ‘choose you’ first, though.

If someone doesn't want to have sex with you then the answer is no. If it's about their hygiene, they have 2 options. Correct the problem she's addressing, or find someone who doesn't see it as a problem. If it's about desire/ideal frequency, you have 2 options. Decide you can live with the rules set by the other partner, or leave. In either case, arguing or trying to plead you case will do nothing except make your partner fear you won't respect their no. So- it's better to just leave.

“Wordlessly”? Yes. I think I've seen enough evidence to conclude that if you are unhappy with the cadence of sex as a man it's important that you do not talk about it. Just leave if you're able to. Of course you lose attraction. Hygiene is very important. It’s amazing how men get so defensive about this. Personally? I read through this list.

Sorry to say this, but this means that women are not going to enjoy having sex with you. Sex without emotions is cold, like an exercise. Only sex with emotions has the potential to be hot. I have had nothing but glowing reviews from people I have had sex with.

The third one was a callback to the first answer. The joke is that I'm saying people foaming at the mouth at 'woke' have the brains and emotional intelligence of children.

The ability to actually know if a woman is interested. Women tend to not lie as much about what they are looking for in a relationship. Yes, there are gold diggers. But just don't spend money or a lot of money in the beginning and they are super easy to avoid Not going to argue the rest but women absolutely allow you to take them on dates while not being interested in you. Sometimes it's not malicious, sometimes they are attempting to give you a chance to interest them, but it absolutely happens…

I am happier not constraining myself to the bounds of masculinity. I like myself more, I show up as more authentic, I get complimented in public, and lead a better life. Being non masculine is a giant turnoff for women and if I want to go on a date I have to mask as a masculine man if I want to get the time of day from a straight woman.

Yes. Assuming I have a similar enough mind to I am now all of my life goals would be achieved much easier as a woman as they are as a man. I doubt much about my employment would change. Assuming I stayed at the same schools as I did now I could see my friend groups changing a little, but I've always been in mixed gender friend groups. The only negative I think would be getting constantly hit on at my hobbies. Assuming I'm as autistic and health conscious as I am now, I'd probably still be skinny…

If she opened with “for the record I will never have sex with you” I would think she’d be an unpleasant person to be around. If she proved herself pleasant or more likely I just went crazy from the lack of socialization I’d end up talking to her.

My answer immediately was “I would leave her alone and never interact with her again” just in case you wanted my actual, unfiltered opinion.

I’m not sure where you keep getting “I will force someone to change something” from “I don’t like this thing”. I’m sure there are plenty of things you don’t like but have no desire to change. I don’t like horror movies but I don’t think they should stop making them. In that same vein, I don’t like some of the standards women have and think they’re negative. But I’m not trying to change the way women act nor force them to act differently.

For example, when faced with two choices, a good chunk of people would likely choose a butterface over a morbidly obese person with a stunning face. This is what I was thinking too! I didn't bring up that example to my roommates, because I feel like I see women like the latter all the time. Most people look very normal with a quirk or two that you learn to love. I have heard of a lot of people when they are married to someone come to love their partner's facial quirks.

Part of why I want to be rich and hot is that I need enough hotness and capital to find a woman willing to deal with all my bullshit.

Are most people face > body people? I was talking to my roommates, and they both agree they prioritize face over body. We debated it briefly and I'm redirecting it here.

YES in my experience. Maybe I'm a crazy person, but attraction has to do a lot with my nose, not just their body or face. Men definitely have a scent to them I really dislike- I can't smell every dude in the world, so this is just anecdotal. Like, I hate man sweat I think.

It’s definitely a risk. I hate hurting people’s feelings. I really need to get comfortable asking for what I want and not compromising. Ultimately, I want to take a woman out, see her often, and be intimate with her emotionally and physically. That does not need to be within the confines of a romantic relationship for me— but it does for other people sometimes.

All women are essentially hypergamous and are attracted to men who they believe have high social status. Even if I believed this is true(status imo is about eyes on you not about quality of woman you obtain but whatever) the trick to status is that it's actually the easiest to change.

Keep in mind that the average woman commenting on PPD is much less likely to be closer to the average, normie women than women who are into niches that might include gaming or nerdy hobbies. Don't discount their responses, but understand the sample bias.

Unironically this is sad that some guys were not able to date in the life stages where this is acceptable. I dunno how old this guy is, but I feel like when you're in your late 20s/early 30s women just sort of go "Ok I'm ready to be married now" But... you got to have a dating experience. Lots of these late bloomer guys are functionally teenagers when it comes to their dating experience, and no one has anything to say to them. It's like all the advice is horrible.

Swiping left changes your algorithm to not show you people like that, but as far as I know it doesn't negatively effect your elo. I think Elo is based on match percentage- ie how many times people swipe right on you and how many times your right swipes are matches for you.

Not exactly asking if it’s going well or not — but are you actively trying to date? Are you on dating apps? Yes. I have a tinder, bumble, and hinge account. Are you asking women out IRL? I have on occasion. I hate doing it. And if you are,why are you still here? Does it help or hurt? Or do you consider this just a hobby? I came here for answers as to why I was struggling so much to date. This place is neutral- it does confirm my biases on dating, but it also helps me feel not alone in how bad it…

Does anyone else decide intentionally not to match with someone you have a fair idea would swipe back on you, because you know you don't have the bandwidth to talk to anyone at the moment?

There's actually a pretty easy way to find out through gaming if the boy is misogynist. You can say something like "Oh yeah I'm not into it but my friend was but they're so mean to girls on there. Have you heard about that stuff?" And gauge his reaction to misogyny in gaming. If he can't help but say something like "It's not so bad" or "If she can't take the heat go back to stardew valley" or something you have your answer. There are also tons of female writers for some of the most popular games…

You don't have to be homophobic (or any -phobic) to feel uncomfortable being prepositioned for sex like that, especially if you just don't know a person in this way. Then why did you use a big burly man as an example? You might be okay with that, but keep in mind that's *you* Right, and my opinion is that it's pretty homophobic to be appalled if a big burly gay man asked me but not if a pretty woman asked me. I would feel wary or in danger if he cornered me or did this without a good exit option…

But I care about what she feels not how she acts— I think other people could to. Would you rather have someone who loved you and acted like it or someone who only acted? I choose the latter and even if I couldn’t tell practically it’s still important to me. This is like saying “your friend can secretly hate you but if they act like they like you it’s the same” it’s like, practically yes but spiritually no.

You’re a grown ass man and can’t seem to grasp the very basic fact that these men get with women inspite of their red flags not because of them. Red flags are sometimes corollary to things that are attractive. To other men, a woman who is very sexually forward early is attractive.

The argument was about whether or not lying is wrong, it is if lying is desired or ignored. For example, I want a woman who openly sexually desires me. I don't want a woman who 'acts' that way, just because she knows I like it. I want her to actually feel it in some capacity.

Sorry, I didn't see your edit and read it now. You sound like a very nice, nerdy guy, but sadly that doesn't really cause attraction.

Right, then it’s about something else. If I thought the answer was that shittiness was attractive, my question would be “how do I emulate shittiness to be attractive to women?

Where did I criticize the women that date shitty men? What I asked was “how do I become attractive enough that women will date me” because men who abusive are still dating. Being shitty is still a negative trait, like being a slob is a negative trait. If the question was ‘how do I become attractive if slobs are attractive and I’m not one and can’t get a partner?’ The answer to that is ‘Being a slob is something people can hide for months before being in a relationship.’ Stuff like that.

Because men with equal sexual access to women are more likely to enjoy being in a non monogamous relationship.

The example you stated and most examples of what is reinforced by gender roles are enforced in part by women if not fully by women and their attraction. If women were attracted to men who cried ‘boys don’t cry’ would be erased in a single generation, I’d bet one million dollars on it.

It’s just not cheating— because they never entered into a monogamous relationship in the first place.

Watching someone’s naked body whilst thinking about the existing reality of them regretting it removes the fun out of it for me. It leaves me feeling bad instead of good. This is what I think causes the negative feelings for me. It's not fun anymore. This might be a weird comparison, but do you know the artist D4vd? He killed his minor girlfriend(allegedly... 🙄), and his music heavily referenced his crimes. I don't have problems listening to music from criminals. But hearing a song that is about…

Thank you for answering the question!

Tbh I completely get the argument that some people can be trafficked or not consent. I don't agree that because you regret making the porn its bad to consume. Not exactly the same thing, but there are definitely movie stars that regret roles they were in. I don't think it's wrong to enjoy those movies anyway. Is it just the sensitivity of sexual content?

For someone you’ve never met before? I guess agree to disagree. I’m not a woman, but if a woman gave me flowers or some equivalent on a first date before we got to know eachother I would be put off. And 3 texts isn’t the issue— that’s easy. It’s the level of commitment and stock you’re putting into someone on a dating app. Again, agree to disagree. I’ve done it before at a woman’s request and it felt extremely inauthentic. I don’t spend enough time on the apps to be talking to anyone as long as …

Not to detract from your point(maybe it adds to it) but I am very scared of driving, so I don’t drive. I choose in a city where public transportation is plentiful.

Basic effort is not love bombing. A quote from the original post. I used to believe most women were far too wise to be love-bombed and that they would know that any flood of attention coming from a man in a relatively short amount of time was highly suspicious.

It's also active vs passive harm, e.g. the Trolley Problem. Harder to rationalize active engagement vs lack of action. By eating the oysters, you're not killing them.

I love the frugal subreddits and use those often, too. Maybe I'll check out the poverty subreddits, but the reason I'm like this is because my parents came from nothing and have ardent saving principals that's made me really neurotic about this

I know that, but living like that sounds so stressful. So long as my life is tied to employment my entire world can be ripped away from me if I lose my job. If I can keep up the amount of saving I'm doing for at least the next 16 years I will feel secure but I don't think I will feel secure until then.

I'm currently above that mark. It just doesn't feel like enough.

Depends on the space you're trying to operate in. Attractiveness standards fluctuate between communities and subgroups, but being white has the most absolute general appeal yeah. So is being 6 feet tall as a man. There's nothing to be done about it, so we work with what we have. I normally date in communities where my body type is a bit more appealing and dress very well, while realizing that my blackness is a negative in mass appeal.

Why would being involuntarily celibate be a moral failing? I don’t think it is no. I just wanted to ask for consistency's sake. And what you’re suggesting, is controlling “society”? And society is made up of individuals. It’s individuals that give other individuals sex and love Culture is what makes society more than a collection of individuals.

I think the Bechdel test is kinda a poor metric for seeing if someone cares about women or not. Half of people on earth are men, so if you're ever telling someone something relational, depending on the conversation you can have a 50/50 shot of bringing up a man in some capacity.

You had me in the intro and lost me in the body. None of those are valid reasons to treat someone as anything other than 'human'.

Which is why the data shows such persistent overlaps between the manosphere and MAGA/right wing/fascist/supremacist/libertarian/etc. ideologies.

I just think the types to externalize their suffering are more likely to be right wing. Additionally this is anecdotal but i've seen PUAs across the political spectrum. It's fallen o…

The irony is that most successful long-term relationships start with emotional comfort, friendship, trust, humor, and basic social warmth. But TRP often treats platonic connection as either weakness, manipulation, or a failed sexual strategy. This just isn't true. Most ltrs start online these days, at least according to the data. And even if this were true, it still misses key things that differentiate a relationship from a friendship. If you were next to someone who was your perfect person but …

Maybe that’s my problem. I don’t really want anything. A lot of what I have I have because it made the most logical choice for me to do those things.

You could make a hinge and be insanely direct with what you want, but referencing genitals in your profile might get you banned.

But the people who enjoy it even enjoy the process of getting there more. With people like me, it's a major turn off to have a 'finally thank god I can stop looking around' attitude about dating, because it feels like settling to the other person.
/r/PurplePillDebate21/05/26 06:57 PM

I think I want the result of my hard work and typically in non dating spheres I get what I wanted- I just don't really get enjoyment out of performing the action it takes to get what I want. I wish I had the quality some people do where the effort seems to feel nice to them instead of dreadful to me. Not everyone is achievement oriented I really wish I was. People who get enjoyment out of goals set are probably happy to work and sweat for the things they want.

It's less male/female dynamics and more oppressor/oppressed dynamics. Not that I agree with it but the idea is more that a woman's hate for a man has no systemic power but a man's hate for women does. I don't see how this makes sense to anyone but as far as I can figure that's the justification.

Love is a feeling and an action to me. I feel the feelings of love and commit the actions of love. I can feel love and not do love, or do love and not feel love- both need to be together for a relationship to work to me. Also spark can be built with a lot of people if you work on your skill.

I am talking about finding someone compatible to build a relationship with, not just someone to fuck But you need to find both for them to be a compatible partner.

the males who complain think of quantity not quality, so they want to have some sort of status that will make more women into them, rather than find a woman into them. This is exactly why status is important to me, for the reason you state in the latter half of this sentence but the first doesn't map for me. It's not about quality, not really- but in order to find quality you need a large enough sample size. Status increases the amount of women who have their eyes on you at all- to be known soci…

Yeah I agree- when I say marriage is different though I more mean that there is more duty and responsibility compared to a girlfriend boyfriend thing— not that the love is somehow different. I would just behave different. And funny enough, I don’t need to have sex with them to ‘turn on’ that feeling, but if I feel that way about someone for too long without any sex the feeling starts to feel grating and I start to really dislike it.

/r/PurplePillDebate21/05/26 04:03 AM

I guess that’s why I think a relationship and a friendship aren’t much different— if I can just turn it on, wouldn’t I be able to do that with anyone I found attractive and interesting? Now, I’m only talking dating here, not a marriage. But I think being a husband is much different than being a boyfriend or a friend.
/r/PurplePillDebate21/05/26 04:02 AM

It depends if he’s happy then he’s won. If he’s not happy he hasn’t. I’ve been in relationships with very attractive women who sucked and if I didn’t have the self respect to leave maybe people would have thought it was very happy because I had a super hot woman on my arm.

/r/PurplePillDebate21/05/26 03:36 AM

To me, romantic feelings normally happen from connection attraction and interest, then allowing myself to feel those romantic feelings for someone over time. It’s weird, but I’ve always been able to turn that on and off— I can look at someone with a romantic glow about them, but if I can’t have that person for whatever reason I can just make that feeling go away pretty easily? I’ve had plenty of female friends I’ve decided not to be romantically attracted to and it just shuts it down.

/r/PurplePillDebate21/05/26 03:25 AM

That scenario is kind of funny to me because I don’t think this would happen— I think enough people would still want relationships/children once the luster wears off. I think it would only push up the average ‘incel’ age from like 25 to 40 on average, because that’s when they’d want a relationship and be permanently kicked out of the dating market. It’s almost a trap to enjoy the first half of your life much more in exchange for ruining the second half.
/r/PurplePillDebate21/05/26 03:16 AM

If I had no access to entertainment and just A or B I think I would go crazy either way, though.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. People want to fulfill a desire, which is sexual validation, they just don't know how to articulate that and say sex. Otherwise, a prostitute would give them everything they want. How long are you allowed to work towards a goal until it is absolutist?

That's because the redpill is about getting sexual relationships, not making female friends. I have female friends- and they are great for platonic partnership. But friends do not replace my desire for a romantic(and yes, sexual) partner.

I would rather be alone. I really mulled over this question, but ultimately I don't think I could get over the self hate and frustration that would come with having this partner in my space that didn't desire me sexually, for the rest of my life. I would feel like I settled for something I so deeply didn't want. I would probably be a terrible partner because I'd be irritable, never want to lay or cuddle with her, and just spend time away.

Like you said, it's fear and insecurity, at the end of the day. I think we should allow men to be vulnerable more. I think the capacity to be embarrassed is not something modeled by men because to be embarrassed is not just to lose social standing but also masculinity. Also, being vulnerable enough and safe enough to express when you feel a change in your relationships with someone is hard for people to do, men included. I still have a lot of trouble telling romantic partners how I feel, because…

I really wonder what it feels like on both sides of this. I wonder if I’d be able to tell, and conversely I wonder what it feels like to want to do this. Like I said, I don’t really feel crushes and especially not towards my friends so I can’t map this feeling at all. When you say friends, you mean people who you hang with platonically in both single and group settings for months, years? This seems like such a waste of time on the guys end.

Most women aren’t into casual sex What does that matter?

In my experience, I wouldn't call them crazy, but most women who are a virgin at my age are doing so intentionally, because they see purity as a virtue. I think the entire idea is cringe and would not date anyone with those values.

I actually have a great example. I'm into anal- not everyone is. I would be sad if my partner wasn't interested in me playing with her butt at all. But, that would be something I would try to get over because it's her body, and obviously I'm into her personality if I'm with her. I suppose it is settling, but I never once thought I could get everything I've ever wanted in a partner.

I looked through this thread in its entirety at this point, and only like 5 women said they would have casual sex if the orgasm gap didn’t exist, and a few of them had casual sex before. I find it interesting that people use the others gap as an argument when it seems like women don’t really care about it. The safety and std argument seems like the one most people focus on in this thread.

Bad from a red pill man’s perspective. That’s why he’s saying this is a female sexual strategy that benefits women and ‘costs’ men, just like how the ‘for fun’ and ‘for marriage’ girl idea is a male sexual strategy that benefits men. I don’t agree with it but that’s the gist I’m pretty sure.

Sex work is cool and based and they should be able to create a union have healthcare and anyone who assaults a sex worker should be put on the sex offender database for the rest of their life.

Elders still have sex. Senior homes are hotbeds for STDs because the seniors fuck around. Virgins also want to have sex— and asexuals are not Allosexuals.

But that obviously doesn’t matter very much, which also annoys us My positive traits for a ltr do not matter to me yet because I have not made it long enough to show off those attractive qualities. I could be a 10/10 or a 0/10 when it comes to ltr qualities, but since I've never got there my concern is not on step 10 when I have not completed step 0.

What if you do not plan to cohabitate through? I mentioned that in the post you linked, too.

though I suspect more will with less harassment) This might come off as aggressive and I'm not intending to sound aggressive, I just don't know how else to word this question: Why do you think this will be the case? I like to think I hang out in pretty progressive spaces, and the conversation between approaching as a man and not approaching is a huge matter of debate even irl in my experience. Every woman has their own preference and at least where I am it's like literally 50/50. But what is alm…

I agree with your topic and the first paragraph but the rest falls apart for me. I do not think women feel that approaching is submissive, they just see it as part of the male gender role and the tango that is courting. A lot of this is based on traditionally masculine framing, but the logic doesn't hold up for me. If the woman wants a traditionally masculine man, she shouldn't be doing all this. But yes in general I think men should not approach women for their own mental health. If you can wit…

I don't think that's the way I would put it. It's more like... Imagine you wanted to be a boxer. And everyone your whole life(by your perception) told you that your legs were important. So you trained your legs and your footwork every day. Then, you step into the ring for the first time, and find out while footwork is important it doesn't matter if you can't swing a good punch. It's anger at the idea that we have honed a tool that is worthless for romantic relationship building. What's even wors…

I don't think this is true. I think natures can't really be changed- in a way, I wish I was causally confident. I'm not. I'm gentle, soft spoken, anxious, and nerdy. But I do look at the guy I would describe as an asshole and wish I had his success with women. And it makes me feel a sense of dissonance because despite you guys saying it didn't actually happen, I grew up thinking if I was nice and sweet enough someone would end up liking me. Then I became a teenager and then adult and found out n…

/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 03:09 PM

They’ll bitch about the quality of women theyre getting, as I also had mentioned. They care about the consequences very much, they will blame those consequences on women and society. I agree. I share no love for those men so I do not care to defend them. What traits did they display that was obviously a red flag? The one guy I know for sure was mean, anti social, and did not share her values at all. He was the kind of guy that tried to direct who she hung out with and what she wore. But he was v…

The point of what? Are we talking about being an asshole, or are we talking about being a criminal. The men I was referring to were not criminals, just people with low empathy and respect for other humans, abrasive personality, mocking personality, etc...
/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 02:52 PM

.....We are talking about being an asshole, right? Being an abuser or a murderer is not being an asshole, it's being a criminal.
/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 02:47 PM

All I've done is tell you what I have experienced in real life. I have been in the room with female friends and watched their partner act in ways I would consider assholeish towards them, silently think that guy is bad news, and then watch the tower eventually fall when she finally releases him. Those men were not hot and, even if they were, that’s not what got them “in the door”. Being hot is what gets everyone in the door. Most everyone has some sort of attraction threshold, and most people ar…
/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 02:46 PM

They do and wont STFU about it. Incels, blackpill, redpill, etc. They all care about rejection. Because they dont like that women can choose to not tolerate them. By 'those people' I meant the assholes getting girls, not pillers. …….. a wolf in sheep clothing isn’t a new concept. Do you know how many vile criminals were pillars of their communities? But I'm telling you they weren't wolves in sheeps clothing. They were just wolves my friends went 'Maybe it's a puppy!' over. It had to bite a few t…
/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 02:33 PM

Part of being an asshole is a lack of empathy, and typically misogyny comes packaged with it. These men do not care about rejection because they do not value the opinions of women, and with enough bird shot you will eventually hit a bird. I think most men think that being an asshole is bad, and yet I am someone who also looks around me and notices that all of my friends have had a shitty asshole ex that did x y and z. And these are women I like and respect. But what it tells me is that while bei…

These questions are all rhetorical. Your argument was about how since dating was unbalanced in the aspects you outlined, men should have to pay. My questions were intended to poke holes in that logic- if I'm providing the same things as the woman, am I still supposed to pay? Your followup would be that men do not have the burden of carrying children. The next question was to preempt that- if neither of us want to get married or have children, that factor does not apply. Can you see my logic here…

I scrolled through this entire thread to check- and no, I didn't say any of that. My reading of my responses is very consistent with what I outlined above- I do not like gender roles and I think both yours and the guy you were arguing with are dumb to be assigned to gender. Everyone should be initiating and looking the best for their partner and paying for things and holding doors and stuff. And somehow you twisted that into thinking I wouldn't pay 50 dollars for dinner. Address the fact that I …

Quote me. The last time I spoke about it was with my therapist, and I have evolving dialogue on this subject. I've spoken about it online and in person at length. So if I've said anything other than what i've said now, that is my feelings on paying for the first date as I have discussed with my friends and therapist, lol. You have made it clear that you hate it because you don’t want to spend the money and you feel victimized and used for a $50 dinner. The last date I was on I spent ~130 dollars…

Yeah, I hate it. Do you know why I hate it? Because it's patriarchal, and comes from a time when men did not respect women. The idea of purchasing a woman's time is uncomfortable to me, which is why I dislike it. I've never come at it from any other angle, other than the fact that I dislike being branded as 'The Man' when that is not something I've chosen.

I contribute to the housework all the time. I have to, because I live with 2 other people and split the chores equitably. I choose to believe that if I ever have a live in partner I won't suddenly decide she needs to be my maid. And ewww another reason why men who don’t pay for dates are a red flag. I never said I don't pay for dates. If the woman wants to split I won't fight her though. you don’t value marriage or commitment, Certainly not in a religious way. Relationships take different forms-…

Most men claim to be progressive and helpful until the time actually comes to be progressive and helpful. Okay. What 'most men' do in their relationships has no baring on the relationship you're having with your partner. If he is not measuring up to your standards find someone who can. And if you don’t want to marry a woman and you constantly want to keep her at arms length, you’re wasting her youth, beauty, and fertility. Eww wait are you religious or something

I did them over medium, and then plastered some green tabasco sauce on top. Did you make brekky?
/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 12:59 PM

Kind of? It would make me no longer enjoy the sex to know that those were her feelings about it.

/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 12:19 PM

Well, it's less that I think she thinks it's bad. It's more that if I knew my wife felt the way this woman felt about me/our sex, I would find that to be a bad thing.
/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 12:16 PM

Probably. I really can’t do it any more. If a girl is my friend or know my friends she’s already deeply entrenched in my life, and if the relationship doesn’t work out I have no desire to try to navigate that minefield. My social life is still fucked from the girl I dated two years ago.

Dating is individual not collective. If I don’t expect my wife to do more housework, cook, clean, and do childcare more than me does that mean I don’t have to pay for the date? If I don’t want to marry her, cohabitate with her, or have children does that mean I don’t have to pay for the date? I don’t understand how you can say say ‘if this is fair so is this’ when no one is forcing you to put up with the ‘woman options’
/r/PurplePillDebate12/05/26 06:24 AM

I don’t hate women like red pillers do but if there was a button that would make me actually not attracted to women anymore I’d push it a million times
