like one youtubers i used to follow, there are someone for everyone. even killers/serial killers have a partner of some sort, despite knowing that they are murderers. not good looking, but have a very fun or attractive personality. the common thing that steers people away, is being broke(although not always the case), hygiene and dressing well seems to be a major one.

men with pets often gets attention too, it makes you look less creepy and more of a normal person and a potential parent.(thats why there are so many thirst traps of men(although they are already attractive) pet animal videos, like with the dodo.

Pardon, but it smacks of weird defensiveness that you feel the need to bring up that serial killers often have intimate partners as some kind of counterpoint to the fact that men who figure out how to respect women's boundaries are highly sought as partners.

Serial killers likely find partners by being manipulative and playing mind games - ie, being psychopaths.

Clearly the evidence that men who respect women have major success fostering reliable and enjoyable relationships with them is somehow highly threatening to a lot of guys.

Something has to immediately be said that instead says "but not respecting women also works." Followed by crude red pill thinking - "And aren't all women dumb bc some seem to like danger? And also, women are superficial, so pretend to like a puppy bc that works a lot."

I know media has taught men that masculinity is basically defined by being able to disrespect women and think of them as winnable objects but --

Mentally healthy women aren't falling for that shit. And you guys hate the baggage that the traumatized ones have who are insecure enough fall for that crap.

You could give up the machismo to try.. respect and growing into someone who could be happy?

That's how I found my wife. She was very impressed with my love and care for the last living dodo, which I keep safe from extinction solely for selfish purposes.

What brand of safe do you keep the dodo in? I have a thylacine that dashes for the door whenever I come and go.

In this case a cage made of the coldest iron, same as I use for my wife.

Do you keep your wife in cage? That's smart.

[–] Nico_198X@europe.pub 3 points 10 hours ago

Thank you!

After her first three failed attempts to escape from my estate, I realized something had to be done.

And, well, she already liked the dodo and I already had the cage, Bob's your uncle, problem solved!
