  • There are some women who want exactly that kind of man. OTOH, even around the reddest part of Florida, most women put something on their dating profile to reject those men. Dated more than ever during the pandemic, yeah, weird, I know, but here’s what I saw and heard.

    • Profiles outright saying MAGA can fuck off.
    • Profiles saying either they’re “not political” or “no politics”. That’s a dog whistle for no MAGA (more on that).
    • Plainly stated liberal views, again, no MAGA.
    • Laughingly told one woman before we went out that I was pretty redneck. “Uh, just how redneck?” “I fucking loathe Trump if that’s what you mean.” “OH! Whew. OK.”
    • More than one date told me guys either went OFF about Trump or went off on THEM about Trump, on the first date.
    • Either they gently probed me on politics or flat out refused to speak of it, at least until they knew for sure I wasn’t MAGA. See note about about first dates.

    Despite being a middle-aged white guy, my looks and profile were clearly, to me anyway, liberal. Did quite well! LOL, friends and neighbors were making fun of me regarding all the women in and out the house. (That wasn’t on purpose, most just didn’t work out.) As I said, there were a handful of profiles saying “conservatives only, no liberals”. Given the politics of the region, those were shockingly rare.

    I can only imagine that going red ain’t working out so well for incels. And the downward spiral continues.

    EDIT: I worked hard on the meme. Please clap.

    LOL, that was my Akita when grandma (mom) took him. Long story, couldn’t keep him any longer. “Shalafi, I am NOT going to take that dog!” Well, she did. 130lbs. of black bear wandering around the house.

    After hip surgery: “Oh Shalafi! He’s just too big! He might knock me down!” Guess who got knocked down when I came home to visit. Beast knocked me flat while not laying so much as a whisker on her walker. Didn’t so much as brush her walker with that monster tail. In a 8’x 8’ entryway. That was something to witness. From the ground.

    “Oh he just barks and barks when strange men come around the house! I don’t know what to do with him!” Yeah, bet you hate having a dog with the lungs of a dragon going off at “strange men about the house”. 🙄 Yoshi sounded like some Resident Evil shit going down on the other side of the door.

    He did stress her out by plopping down on the freezing concrete patio and refusing to come in, even covered in snow. “Mom, they were raised in northern Japan to hunt bears. He’s LOVING this!” LOL, did not compute for her.

    And being an Akita, he was perfectly patient and loving with little ones. Slammed a bottle of gin and cried forever the night mom told me he was gone. Gods I got funny stories about that animal.

    Pretty sure my .22s have a larger bore, and I have a shitload.

    Funny story:

    Black dude runs up in the local redneck bar and starts waving a BB pistol around. “You’re money and your jewelry!”, kinda talk. People were like, whatever dude, that’s a BB gun. “I’m fucking serious!” One the guys playing pool walked up behind him and clocked him over the skull with the blunt end of a pool stick. Fin.
