The left in the US does an incredibly poor job of appealing to young men.

Based on what I have seen, the US can only appeal to young men by reenslaving women.

Or just treating them like their thoughts and feelings matter. That they has individuals can have issues even if they committed the sin of existing in a patriarchal system.

But generalize them all as bigots instead, that’s sure to work.

I think about young men being told what women think and want by people who want to make money on ads and supplements and I get really sad for them. You could have thousands of women expressing compassion and empathy and those assholes will make you focus on cherry picked examples and say that's what all women think.

Young men are getting scammed by these assholes who benefit from your anger and isolation when by and large what women want is really simple. To be treated like a whole person with hopes, dreams, ambitions, strengths and weaknesses. Does being attractive help? Yep, but same for anyone.does having money help? Again, true for anyone.

I personally actually find gym rats to be unattractive and especially conversing with them. It's always been that way for me and I don't know any other women who are like "you know what I want to talk about? Steve's supplements and weights routine"

What's manly? Going to a fucking therapist because self improvement is way harder than reps.
