[By community I mean men that struggle with intimacy]

To preface this, I am a very short brown dude in the west...yes I have struggled profoundly with dating, and yes, I fully agree with 90% of what the reasonable people on this sub would argue. There is a mating crisis and it's only going to get worse.

HOWEVER, the one thing I see constantly on here that I think is fu**ing idiotic is the promotion of tradcon stuff, e.g. I hate girls with tattoos, "leftists", nanny state, hatred of socialism, etc.

The cold hard truth? Some of the worst bullying I've ever received in my life has been from the high-end "tradcon", preppy types that this sub weirdly idolises. Just one example: When I was in University, a couple of young tradcon types came up to me and my female friend and shouted full in our faces: "OMG YOU'RE ALL SO UGLY"...with literally no provocation.

And sorry to burst the Tradcon bubble: Tradcon girls are also some of the most BRUTAL when it comes to selecting only chad types. I know a lot of these types of women and if you think liberal women are bad just wait until you see their list of requirements in a man...6666 BARE MINIMUM.

They're also the group of people that give the LEAST shits about inkwell suffering...think about it...conservative, free market, SURVIVAL OF THE CHADLIEST.

On the other hand, some of the few (non escort) sexual experiences I've had have been with liberal alternative women (yes cute enough, yes tattooed, etc.). Tbh they seem to be the types of people that are most likely to look past conventional beauty standards. I've even had some decent discussions with rational, liberal feminist types who are starting to take men's issues deadly seriously.

I think a lot of inkwell types are so blinded by hatred that they don't realise that we actually have more in common with rational liberals than fucking privately educated, Ralph Lauren toffs...trust me those people are savages in tweed jackets.
