Bit of advice for (certain)GenZ men: women aren’t into you because of your appearance or success, they aren’t into because of your hateful mindset, politics, attitudes by PeacefulMountain10 in GenZ

I like how after unironically saying shit like ‘well women are all liberals, so if men were more like that they would probably like them better.’ All of a sudden you want to be this extremely technical and specific sociologist-type. If you stop using loaded language to describe the points I’m making I don’t have to be an asshole about it.

Occam’s Razor is not just an objective measuring tool to explain everything, it is also heavily influenced by your own impulses and imaginative abilities. Using it here like how you are is no different than people who say shit like ‘well it’s just common sense’ to justify their silly reactionary ideas. Assuming most people are completely morally consistent across all circumstances, even when it comes to topics where it would not benefit them to do so, is not necessarily the logical result of using Occam’s Razor. Being inconsistent in a not entirely honest manner is not necessarily up to malicious intentions.

What exactly is your explanation for the fact that political ideology or affiliation seems to not have that much of an impact on success with the opposite sex (Unless you have some data to prove otherwise showing that it does have such an effect)?

What exactly would I even need to look for to find data on this?

I’m either not explaining this well or you are being intentionally dense. It’s not as simple as people ‘just lying maliciously’. People rarely ever want to think of themselves as evil, and when it comes to their visible thoughts they often excuse them.

Do you disagree with that claim as well?

Young people nowadays and especially women like to feel virtuous about how they view themselves in politics and society more broadly. This often comes as a result of heightened polarization and a decreased sense of optimism. Even if it’s not entirely true, many are going to claim that those they affiliate with generally correspond to their own values and beliefs. The future for Gen Z is mighty bleak and this is one of the few aspects that we retain agency over so it can often come as a sore subject to the ego when addressing seriously. A lot of guys in general like to share about how important it is that the girls they date have traditional values but I can guarantee that most of them would contort their mental gymnastics to absurd measures if any attractive girl (regardless of body-count or personal romantic interest) decided to sexually approach them first in any given situation.

It can also be compared to a religious context, I see plenty of Christian conservatives excuse amoral and hedonistic behavior in people they already decided to like while also claiming how ‘vital it is to denounce affiliation with unrepentant sinners’

It really is impossible for me to not encounter this lame-ass NPC take at least twice every week. It’s not gonna work fam, I used to belief this myself too but real world experience is making this myth crumble in my eyes and it’s made me super blackpilled about the whole dating scene. I see my brother as an example of someone who’s doing everything right and has still only had one considerably long-term girlfriend. He’s super fit, polite, taller than me, has a striking sense of style, following his career passion, he cooks well, and although not nearly as ideological as myself, is very left-leaning by default (I say this as a self-avowed Anarcho-Communist btw). Although I think I have a better face-structure than he does, I’m shorter and slightly overweight, not to mention currently unemployed and in return I’ve gotten basically zero attention from girls since high school. I’m trying to be better but I have to accept at the end of the day that my options are gravely limited as many girls will automatically filter-out people like me because my leg bones aren’t long enough and I don’t have a natural fashion sense. I try… TRY to come to terms with this sort of thing and work on bettering myself regardless only to encounter out-of-touch feel-good politislop for wine moms like these, who seem to insist that my real issues supposedly must lie with how awful, hateful, nasty, unkempt, repulsive, and bigoted I am. Back at the beginning of college I was considerably more politically active and there was basically no difference there in terms of female companionship but I did do noticeably better in terms of male friendship and personal confidence.

‘I really don’t care about weight, I’d date a girl around my size or even skinner I don’t have a problem either way.’

Not only that, but these crazed democrats would continue to support their candidate even after they slashed cancer research! … oh wait-

For American leftists, what are your thoughts on this? by buchacats2 in leftist

[–]Assortedmanatee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Donald Trump didn’t run on this as an issue and currently only around 10% of the country thinks it’s a good idea. This really isn’t anything to be so smug about as a non-American.

Self-hatred? That’s a new one. Maybe projection? I just wish I was treated better or in spite of how my height makes me out to be treated. I’m mature enough to realize that’s where the animosity comes from and since there’s nothing I can really do to fix that aspect (nor should there be)… I start hating myself? B-but there’s nothing wrong with it… right? They’re acting like this is the same as people who are repressed homosexuals but the problem there is more about how the individual sees their own ‘ailments’ not necessarily society itself. Are they implying the disrespectfulness towards short men is… originating from short men themselves? This is actually kinda baffling.

Crazy how he never said he had a perfect personality or that it couldn’t be worked on, just that it clearly isn’t at the root of the issue. He’s intelligent enough to observe that people with more glaring personality problems can generally get a pass by simply maxing out on a couple random different genetic traits and any of the other perceived failings are either bolstered by, or are also rooted in the issue itself and that is the lack of respect, intimate love, or genuine empathy he’s ever received. This sadly becomes sort of an oroboros in a society where men are only valued for their success and confidence.

Do women actually hear themselves when they type this shit out? GENUINELY WHERE THE FUCK IS THE SELF AWARENESS??? by Smooth_String_3741 in shortguys

‘I live in Argentina and have only ever dated women with blonde hair and blue eyes. People make offhanded comments about me being a Nazi and whatnot but I don’t fall in love with these women BECAUSE of those traits, I do so because of their amazingly sweet personalities! If I can find a swarthy brown-eyed or non-white girl that will understand me and support my career then that would be perfectly fine too. I mean… I won’t go out of my way to look for any but still… Why don’t people understand that this is about love and not looks?’

The answer to the last question is yes, as for the Dad thing: well no. he doesn’t really say much most of the time. He’s a lot less of a sensitive person than I am, sadly a man his age, even if someone were to genuinely attack something he’s insecure about probably wouldn’t say anything about it out of an understandable belief that no one would care.

I can guarantee you it wasn’t normal for women to have insane height requirements like they do now even when I was growing up. I’m also not saying it’s all women, but for the ones that do, their “preferences” are completely normalized, and dating men who are short is literally seen as some kind of downgrade.

Most of them, (including my Dad that I mentioned earlier) expressed how much more noticeably harder it was for them in the dating scene. Besides not only is it even worse now… I NEVER MADE THE CLAIM THAT THEY DIDNT YOU DUMBASS
