        Well yeah, straight conservative men also wind up with all the shame and fear of queerness that manifests as a preoccupation with dicks.

        Well that and lots of guys who are basically Mac in early seasons of always sunny

        Now, I’m not too caught up on the rhetoric, so maybe I’m incorrect here, but I never really saw “Femboy” as a transgender thing, and more of a kink thing like someone who identifies as male dressing up as a woman, or wanting to be talked to like a woman, while still being male, and under that parameter, it doesn’t shock me that its the more popular search, at least it seems like it is from the graphs.

        That said, I am surprised that on the list of metro areas, Minneapolis and Sioux Falls are so closely matched.

          as a transfem (nonbinary not girl tho) i hate how porn calls trans women “femboys” despite femboys being a completely different thing

          when used to refer to trans women, femboy is a slur

          an actual “femboy” is (very literally) a “feminine boy”; a male-identifying and at-least-somewhat-feminine-presenting person, often adhering to the typical style of femboy culture (thigh high socks, crop top, skirt or short shorts, fluffy hair that doesnt go past the chin), or often other queer styles

          being a femboy is one of the ways a cishet person can be queer (other notable ways are being aromantic or intersex)

            Thank you, glad I’m not crazy, seems the study should just broaden the label its using from trans porn to something else.

              yeah thats another slur that porn likes to call us

              trans porn intended for cis people is trash, while trans porn intended for queer people is really good; especially with how (in my opinion) queer culture has perfected bdsm

                Spike in usage = the hypocritical nazis are on grindr while also supporting the filth who are actively attacking gay people.

                That is the point I was making, I conceded that down detector can be manipulated but it’s really a moot point when grindr itself shows a spike in usage.

                No need to be a prick about it unless that’s just who you are as a person.

          That’s user reported outage data. Not official outage data. People remembering the cliche may cause the outage report to happen.

          Those metrics are flimsy at best. And grinder itself reported no outages while common search sites did.

          So I call homophobia on that.

            Acknowledging that many zealots are projecting insecurities in a performative display of gender expression is essential to understanding how toxic masculinity and patriarchy keep men (and everyone else too) from living authentic, fulfilling lives.

            There is absolutely a correlation between conventions and increases in dating apps in an area. I doubt that conservative groups, no matter how closeted, can put up the numbers that the out and proud can put on the board, but there is undeniably a bump in traffc.

            I think this “homophobes crash grinder” bit is more of an exaggeration than an urban legend though.

    I was really annoyed to find out that Sophie Cunningham is an anti-trans bigot. Her pointing meme was on point (pun not intended but welcomed) and the full video and her own description of it from her podcast made her seem fun. 😮‍💨

    Oh well, she can go fuck herself with a rusty rail spike like all of her fellow bigots 🤷🏻

        Nah, I’m pretty sure the pointing was just her taunting an opponent (and former teammate afair) who had been excessively fouling Cunningham and/or her teammate Caitlin Clark and made the mistake of revealing that she REALLY hated being pointed at 😄

        Still, knowing that the one doing that excellent trolling is herself a bigot kinda pisses in the fun-broth 😮‍💨

    Except it’s literally the opposite, which is why there is a so called, 'male loneliness epidemic". If the conservative Christians were so hot, why aren’t they getting with them? Wouldn’t the girls want a conservative Christian man?

      People tend to find a certain sexual attraction in being politically dissident together. So I’ve got no doubt that a couple of edgy conservatives are hot for each other in a way they wouldn’t be for vanilla liberals.

      You can only be around someone pretty but stupid for so long

      No shortage of smart conservatives. The problem isn’t intelligence or looks. It’s how long you can fuck the leopard until it eats your face.

    I think what they meant was conservative women are the sluttiest. now, I’m not slut shaming just pointing out an observation.

    it’s amazing what a person will do with a complete lack of self-respect. the acts of depravity are endless when their entire worth hinges upon the value the opposite sex places upon them for gratification.

    ironically, the group that claims purity is likely one of the most fucked up groups.

    this is why I believe that the MAGA cult is a sexploitation cult. it always comes back to sex with those people.

    Why are conservative women sometimes better looking?

    Because they’re the one who tend to coast through life and get handed opportunities than less attractive women are. Some of the better looking women at my old job were rather right leaning…and every single one of them either banged their way into a position they weren’t qualified for, would go and cry in the boss’s office anytime they encountered a mild inconvenience or if someone wasn’t nice to them, and always complained everyone else was lazy…despite them being the ones who showed up whenever they pleased and always had some BS excuse to leave whenever they wanted, or got a couple office simps to do half their work for them.

    1 in particular would do nothing but whine about how trashy it was that someone in the office was sleeping with a married coworker… despite the fact she was also sleeping with a married coworker 🤷🏻‍♂️

        There are conservative pedophiles, and non-conservative pedophiles.

        That’s why Biden didn’t release the files, and why Trump didn’t release the files. Exact same reason.
