I’ve seen this happen way too much with my friends too. Like guys on bumble would write “apolitical” in the politics section and then end up spouting the worst most bigoted garbage ever. Even if they want a long term relationship, they still hide their political beliefs for a long time. Is it because they’re ashamed of their beliefs? Or is it because they know that women won’t date them if they come to know?
I’ve been seeing so many posts from straight women lately who are completely flabbergasted by their partner’s reactions to the abortion bans in the USA. A lot of people might say “discuss politics before you start dating” but a LOT of men pretend to give some neutral answer to questions or steer the conversation why. It’s a little disturbing to me and I’m a little scared about dating now.
Edit: someone sent Reddit Cares my way. I am actually thankful because I wasn’t doing so well mentally. Thank you for the amazing responses everyone! I am truly grateful. I am 19F and still quite inexperienced when it comes to dating so I just wanted to understand the motivations behind this lying and deceiving. But I received a lot of in-depth answers that are honestly very enriching and helpful. I am extremely grateful! :)
Edit 2: I love how a question about some men’s dishonesty regarding their political beliefs just to get date someone welcomed a bunch of maidenless folks crying about women’s extreme political beliefs. It’s like magic. As if women aren’t allowed to disagree with you so you’ll HAVE to lie and deceive to get your way.
Edit 3: The American conservative men in my DMs are ANGRY. Like full on kill-yourself-foid level angry. I wonder why. Bless Reddit’s awesome block feature though.
