    will you date a fat guy regardless of his political alignment?

    short answer: no long answer: hell nooooooooo

      I see this on 4chan all the time. You’ve got this demand among the NEETs that their partners look like supermodels, then a bunch of screaming and crying when a woman is repulsed by their bad grooming or poor manners.

      On the flip side, you’ve got the /r/RelationshipAdvice threads where “RED FLAG! DUMP HIM!” is this pre-programmed response to damned near every post. Guys who aren’t sexy enough are undateable trash. Guys who are too sexy are skeazy fuckbois (or worse… gay!)

      But then you log the fuck off, touch grass, and meet dozens of happy couples of every size and shape and disposition. You even see people with disparate political philosophies dating, because not everyone is a fucking nerd obsessed with primary results and poll numbers and creating some kind of breeding program to win the next election cycle.

          Ok, let me amend my position: body mass is not a universal deal breaker. There are people who will reject someone on appearance or weight, but there are many people who would find that same person attractive.

            i don’t believe that, but like i can’t force someone to change what their preferences are, i don’t want to change who i am. its just easier to give up

              Easier maybe, but less likely to have the best outcomes. I’m sorry dating has been bad for you, and the apps are absolutely predatory, but there’s always hope
