Don't mean to be disrespectful but most western women are liberal so they happen to be anti communist

you know how sex pest destiny says that hasan is more evil than trump ,this is basically the same thing

[–] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It's very sweet of you to be worried about being disrespectful, the west is very much overrun by liberals and that definitely includes women.

I mean I get why communism is a turn off to normies. Politics is boring and depressing especially if you actually understand what's going on. And people want their treats and to have fun. But I for one will never stfu about communism a-guy

It’s hard to overstate just how little Americans understand about communism. My own parents just think it’s about atheism. I’m not even talking about people who have opinions on it but are wrong like “communism is when people are taxed to make everyone’s incomes equal”. I’m talking about the majority who can only loosely associate communism with “really bad thing”. Something like a vague notion that is evil like the Nazis but instead they were Russians. Our official “big boss” enemy. Their minds literally just go to cold and snow and all-male choirs singing Russian and big tanks and nukes.

These people do not know what communism is. It's true of the entire Anglosphere. Hell, I do act like a stereotypical Soviet sympathiser and my mum still has no idea I'm a communist, since I don't call myself one in front of her. (She'd never claim to be a socialist. And insists she's not a communist. But when we discuss actual questions of economic and social policy... well, I think she'd have liked Cold War era USSR more than Cold War era USA. And we tend to agree on most things, even when I don't hold back the way I usually do in mixed company. And if communist revolution were to break out in our country, she'd stay put, she isn't viscerally ideologically opposed enough to uproot her life even further under such circumstances.)

Being a communist has never once affected my sex life in a negative way. I’ve told women that I listened to Joe Rogan before (I was a fan in his pre Spotify days) and also never affected it.

The only time those things have stopped me from getting laid is when I get too drunk and start demanding excitedly that they read some books I’ve read. I also do this with sci-fi though so I think it’s not so much the media I ingest as my personality that unseals the deal.

I can't count the times I've inadvertently slowed (never stopped!) an intimate moment from becoming much more intimate because I got excited about a new book I'm reading.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 9 points 1 day ago

I mean ladies do like guys who read.

Better off not having sex tbh

any woman that is turned off by communism can go advocate for their own subjugation in someone else’s ear. i dont need women like that in my life. keep advocating for a system that didnt wanna give you the right to vote and only “liberated” you to the point that it can exploit you for your labor and reproductive capability.

[–] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 41 points 1 day ago (1 children)

To be fair, this is basically just a measure of how many women are "moderate liberals". Being too into politics is seen as a red flag, and to removed from politics is a red flag.

Also, to be fair, there is a bit of a stigma with communist guys that I can definitely see influencing that position. Especially if their only interaction with them is the more aggressive CPUSA/Trot types at lib protests.

I openly identify as a communist, and haven't noticed it turning anyone off. Have seen a lot of guys obsessed with Rogan strike out...

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 32 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Bit of an apples to oranges comparison, if you ask me. If you meet a communist they might get their ideas and news from any one of dozens of sects. If you meet a Joe Rogan guy he gets his news from Joe Rogan.

I’ll forever remember my coworker who challenged himself to work through all of his episodes at work and whenever he talked about it his only response was:

wow, he says the n-word ALOT.

I wish cancel culture was real

[–] CleverOleg@hexbear.net 34 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (5 children)

Even taking off my commie and anti-racist hats… I cannot understand the uncontrollable urge some white dudes have to say the n-word (all the while telling you they definitely aren’t racist). Even at my worst, when I was a sort of a libertarian asshat who considered myself not racist but didn’t believe in institutional racism… never in a million years did I want to say that word. Like, even in a situation where there would have been zero consequences. I honestly don’t get it.

[–] sleeplessone@lemmy.ml 6 points 21 hours ago

The caucasian urge to say the n-word.

frothingfash it's not any more complicated than this

This. I am ashamed to say that in my youth I used it semi-regularly to describe any person of color that pissed me off in the slightest, and I had a hair trigger. Just raging at the world in any way I could.

As unattractive as communism to women? I gotta say, putting a Lenin meme, a ☭, and “Let’s overthrow the ruling class together ❤️” in my Bumble bio did not cause me any trouble getting dates. It honestly seemed like a big plus.

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 44 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I saw this study a while ago, and while I think it's pretty heavily BS, it did make me wonder: for how many women is being a Rogan listener attractive, versus how many women is being a communist attractive? I cannot name a single woman who would be more interested in someone if she knew they listened to the Dumb Guy Enables Fascism show, but I can name many who would be more interested and comfortable with someone who self-identifies as a communist.

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 4 points 20 hours ago

I mean, I'm not into men so I'm probably not the type of woman they're trying to poll, but I'm definitely... being a communist in and of itself won't make someone I wasn't already interested in attractive to me, but I do feel more attracted to a cute girl who's also a commie.
