I don't see the point in making this association.

The study is correlating signaling with long-term mating prospects; the meme is about predation. You're suggesting that predators will present as potential partners for long-term mating, when in fact they're only out for prey.

That's certainly not wrong, but it's also not an argument against signaling. Or if it is, then it becomes an argument against any type of imitatable communication whatsoever. It becomes an argument against want ads, since a predator might respond to one by presenting as a potential employee.

A final point: it's actually quite hard for sexual predators to blend in as a feminist. That doesn't mean it's impossible, but it takes a very specific kind of person to pull that off; most often, they would out themselves. It's not some common occurrence.

So again, I don't see any significant point is making the association.

At the very least, anecdotally, I've noticed that cishet white "allies" are generally more obnoxious and aggressive than the transhomo poc folx they defend.

Why I won't date another 'male feminist' - Kate Iselin

What a stupid article.

First, as soon as some dipshit asks for nudes after send bare chest pics, it's pretty obvious he's not a feminist. Does that really count as "dating"?

Second, and to my earlier point: if someone's being insincere then he's going to out himself pretty damn quick--i.e. asking for nudes after sending a pecs pic

A smart person wouldn't look for someone qualifying themselves as "feminist" at the outset. Just try your best to see if someone's a decent person, and his "feminism" will make itself apparent. Anyone promoting themselves as feminist is protesting a bit too much. Honesly, how is this any different from any other dating presentation? People false advertise all the time; this whole feminist angle is nothing new. Why is this a big deal?

Nobody is denying that promoting yourself as a feminist isn't just another dating tactic. In fact pretty sure that's the point isn't it?

Yes, but...

Why what?

the fellow who agonised over accepting a blowjob because, despite enjoying them, he found the act simply too degrading to let me perform

lmao

So what? People can promote themselves as anything for the purpose of appearing attractive.

Why what?

Why bring it up? What are the stakes?

Fair criticism. I'm done.

I don't know what's real and what's fake anymore. I do know that I have a sudden urge to never buy products from any large corporation beyond the bare minimum, however.

They are the gatekeepers of culture, don't you know?

I've decided that no matter who wins in November, once finances allow it, I'm leaving. The response to 2016 was bad, Covid was worse but this is what finally did it for me. I honestly wasn't aware just how ingrained leftist brainwashing is among normal people. Everyone always says you can move to a different area but once leftists start felling the consequences their hideous worldview and voting habits have on their enclaves they too start congregating to places where actual, functioning human beings live and their poisonous cloud follows. I'm officially tapping out.

Where you moving too?

Looking more and more like Greece. I actually have contacts there and a friend who's been walking me through some of the logistics. Been looking at Poland, too, actually. If I had my way, I'd fuck off to Namibia for the rest of my days but that's a bit too extreme for the time being.

Why not just Idaho or something? The worst of the nonsense is limited to the deep blue urban areas, and these various companies can be boycotted.

dont worry man, this is all once again backfiring on them. Do you think there are more normal hard working citizens in this country who are upset with whats going on or the clowns that are hitting up the streets and these internet wokies? Trust me, they are in the minority and all this is only doing more damage to them in the long run. They're just too stupid to notice it.
