It’s hard being an average guy and trying to find romance online. While incels have all kinds of vile theories As for why this is so (most of them center around evil women who hoard the hottest, most dominant men, whom they call “chads”), the simple reality is that men dominate dating apps.
Tinder’s user base is 78% menAnd 76% for Bumble. The numbers are similar for other popular apps. The odds do not favor men.
But if you are a conservative man? It’s much worse.
Today, January 6, insurgent Andrew Taake to plead guilty to attack officers with chemical spray and a metal whip. He was one of many insurgents caught by a woman’s Bumble sting.
Residing in Washington, she used Bumble to talk to a dozen men after the January 6 attack, using “comically minimal ego strokes” to get them to divulge more and more details until ‘she has enough to give to the FBI.
“They just wanted to regurgitate a lot of these ideas to someone, and it seemed like I was a willing participant,” she said. “It certainly didn’t take a lot of pressure to get them to start talking about it.” Basically, I’m like, “Wow, that’s so cool – so what?” What else?’ That was about all it took.
“A friend of mine said to me, ‘You basically got all these confessions just by saying, ‘Haha!’ So what?” she said.
Taake is the second insurgent caught by intrepid women on dating apps, and more are likely to come.
It may seem fantastic that these men are talking about their lawbreaking to strangers on a dating app, but the fact is that few women want to talk to them, and this phenomenon has only intensified since the Dobbs The ruling eliminated federal protections against abortion. Indeed, a 2022 report by Match (which owns Tinder, OKCupid and several other dating sites) found that two-thirds of women would not date someone with opposing views on abortion, and (attention, anti-abortion men) 34 % said they would be less so. likely to date or have sex. And unsurprisingly, 58% said it was “now more important than ever to know a partner’s political views.”
Conservative reaction to the belief of rejecting beggars. Responding to a study of 1,500 Ivy League college girls that found only 6% of them would date a Donald Trump supporter, a piece in the conservative National Review says in the title that political dating discrimination was “a civil rights struggle.” The cutting line asserted that “point-of-view neutrality should be legally mandated.” Very “small government” conservative of them.
Of course, the Conservatives are trying to place themselves on a lofty pedestal. That article cited a 2019 Pew study that found that, surprise, men were much more likely to date Hillary Clinton supporters than women were to date Trump supporters. This was considered “political discrimination” in the same way as those “which justify prejudice against Muslims or Jews”.
There was columnist Ross Douthat infamous piece in the New York Times arguing for “sexual redistribution”, in which he said: “If we are concerned about the fair distribution of goods and money, why do we assume that the desire for a certain kind of sexual redistribution is inherently ridiculous? » Don’t worry, ladies, Douthat’s solution lies in sex robots, even though he managed to wrap this argument in layers of insulting sexism and misogyny, that sex was something that allowed women to s ‘abandon to demanding men.
Hell, conservatives even argued that women’s refusal to date was the reason.The reason why Donald Trump was elected in the first place !
Yet for all the complaints about intolerant leftists not wanting to date them, the fact is that men have always had a lot of influence over what women say and how they vote. For some reason, single women (single, divorced, or widowed) are much more likely to vote Democratic than their married counterparts. Looking at the 2022 Midterm Exit Electionsmarried women voted 56 to 42 for Republicans, while single women voted 68 to 31 for Democrats – that’s huge. 51 percentage points difference! (There was a much smaller gap of 13 points among men.)
It is in the interest of the conservative movement to encourage liberal women to marry conservative men, because the data is very clear and voting patterns adjust accordingly after marriage. However, whether because of the #MeToo movement, the rise of educated professional female class– or, who knows, Taylor Swift— women are less and less interested in being around men who do not reflect their values.
Even some non-conservatives get upset at the idea that women don’t need to date asshole men who want to restrict their rights. It’s been a month since the Washington Post editorial board was formed this stench of an opinion piece in its pages, claiming that women “threaten marriage”. The Washington Post notes that “since Mr. Trump’s election in 2016, the percentage of single women aged 18 to 30 who identify as liberal has increased from just over 20% to 32%.” The young men did not follow suit. On the contrary, they have become more conservative. Accordingly, the editorial states that “someone will have to compromise,” and guess who they think should compromise? Again, these are not conservative men who refuse to mate with liberal women. Damn, the thought probably turns them on.
Ultimately, women (and men) are right to filter their relationships by ideology. It’s not as if conservatives haven’t pioneered the process, creating their own alternative conservative media outlets, political institutions, book clubs, conferences, and more. And there’s nothing wrong with that! Peter Thiel even financed a conservative meeting app called The Right Stuff (it doesn’t matter that it failed because it’s what women want to do) that thing?). It’s fair to note that when women decide to play the same game and filter out the worst from the worst, all of a sudden people are caught off guard.
I don’t blame women for not wanting to care This absurdity:
Or This absurdity:
Or This:
Or This!
Values matter.
Too many conservative men have decided to side with Trump, and women have responded accordingly. This is as it should be. Horrible people don’t deserve to have relationships with decent, caring, evolved humans.
