“Can think for herself” makes me thing they’re just trolling

    Thinking for herself is a requirement in the industrialized world, since adulting is a subset. Maybe there's a farm that raises gentle ladies-in-waiting with only domestic skills the way we train service dogs to help disabled people, but such women are not found in general society.

    Also, not thinking for herself makes her unemployable in a society where all adults are required to earn a living (which often takes more than one full-time job). So this requirement implies the guy is rich enough to afford a family on one income.

    In short, like the 1950s man, he's not looking for a date or a wife. He's looking for a household appliance. Kenmore will sort him out.

    As for the rest of us losers working class guys, real women who think for them selves and can adult are an asset and a keeper. Heck, if they can think for us too, sometimes, that's a bonus.

    "Can think for herself".

    Dude really wants to do the "Where do you want to go eat?" "I dunno, where do you want to go eat?" vicious cycle?

    Yeah, this has to be satire, right? Right?

    Even this guy knows trans women are women. That battle has been lost and won.

    This man is basically saying out loud "Don't date me, I just want a servant I can fuck."

    I'm seriously on the fence with this one. A couple of points make it really difficult for it to not to be satire, but I've met guys who would unironically think of "can think for herself" as a malus - but they wouldn't admit it out loud. Now, can there be some kind of cave creature so pulled apart from civilized life that they would think this and post it?

    Vaping would be a deal breaker for me. Besides being douchy, I just plain don’t like it, just how I hate smoking. Piercings I probably wouldn’t like outa taste, but someone who can think for themselves is a must otherwise I’d get bored quickly. Not being able to cook would be somewhat problematic as I can’t cook well either, soooo…

    This guy is a troll, which does not rule out also being a sexist bigot.

    In any joke there's a part you believe and a part you don't.

    Lots of these are on my list of wants in a partner. Give me a tatt'd up sailor mouthed gym rat any day of the week. Driver's license optional.

    This person needs to hire a cook and get a sex doll. Actually scratch that, door dash. He's way too fucked to interact with other humans. I feel bad for anyone in his life.

    Plot twist: He's creating impossible standards for women because he's secretly a closeted gay man and doesn't want to date a woman

    The only thing that can take a ten to a one is not having a goblet made from a skull of one of her slain enemies!

    I choose to believe he's counting backwards from 10, and I got 12/14 so I'm gonna call my score -1/10 and hope guys like this avoid me 😂

    Only missed 500 IG followers and hugging the bouncer. But I like to think I'd hug a nice bouncer :)

    For some reason I have a real bad phobia of piercings, which is unfortunate, as most hot people have them.

    You should curse more just to be save.

    You should really start using profanity more. It's really fucking fun

    People hold these views. The fact he's trolling doesn't exclude him from holding some or all of them. Whether he holds these views or not isn't relevant to understanding these views. Here are some reasons why a conservative man would hold these views.

    These threaten his religious sensibilities:

    • Use of profanity or vulgar language
    • Any piercings
    • Vapes
    • Hugs the bouncer on a night out
    • Skimpy clothing
    • Tattoos
    • Atheist

    These threaten traditional roles for women, which he needs to deny women access to public life and define his own masculinity:

    • Over 500 followers on IG
    • Has a twitter account (Other microblogging platforms do count)
    • Cannot cook

    These threaten his masculinity because he associates them with men:

    • Knows what a barbell is
    • Been to more than 3 countries

    These threaten the dependence that he thinks women should have on him and all the other reasons apply to these as well:

    • Has a drivers license
    • Can think for herself

    Yea hes pretty picky, but don't y'all pretend you dont also have your own instant deal breakers. I share a few with this list:

    Vapes

    Hugs bouncer on a night out (Tbh that is weird but also I wouldn't date someone who goes out to bars anyways, just not my kind of life, ya know?)

    500 followers on Instagram

    Everything else on that list is either just fine or even a bonus

    Bro like 3/4 of that list are requirements for me or neutral.

    Cannot cook is a turn off tho. Everyone should know how to cook, at least somewhat.

  • source
  • [–] 5 points 2 years ago

    Dude still in love with the one that rejected him.

  • source
  • [–] 5 points 2 years ago

    That makes me a 0 ... ( Depending what he thinks about te stuff I do cook )

    Have been called worser things than a null points. But somehow in this case I see it as a compliment.
