...not out of empathy for women, obviously, but because they're like: "Last thing I want is to get stuck with a kid if the condom breaks on a Tinder hookup! Or worse have condoms be illegal! Free morning after pills for all!"

their parents tend to just pay to support the child - I've seen this happen with many frat-boy libertarians. hooks up with a girl, gets her pregnant, parents step in, suddenly they're engaged and posting about their wedding on instagram & also buying a house despite both of them still being in school and not working. divorced in <10 years if they don't wind up just having more children. many such cases

That still sounds like a massive pain in the ass, I'd personally rather just use the morning after pill

Those guys evolved into Jordan Peterson "personal responsibility" types over the years, so they don't really care these days

I have a hard time believing there aren't any horny straight boys left.

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Alas, we're all horny bi boys nowadays.

[–] SunriseParabellum@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Yeah I know that feel

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We are horribly oppressed and marginalized at every turn but we exist (for now)

[–] SunriseParabellum@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

When will the oppression of horny straight men end? deeper-sadness

not that all misogyny is based on sexual deprivation, but i don't believe libertarians are slammin toon enough for that to be an immediate concern of theirs

[–] DavidGarcia 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

there are plenty of those, the socially conservative libertarians have just successfully executed a coup recently, so they are much more visible

[–] silent_water@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

socially conservative libertarians

look either they're anarchists -- who are cool -- or they're temporarily embarrassed reactionaries. there's no libertarianism without anticapitalism.

The actual practical benefits of legal abortion aren't as valuable to them as women Knowing Their Place as second-class human beings

I honestly don't think it's malicious like that. Like only the evil little goblin men, the strivers, are thinking tactically and yearning to shape their perfect Back to the Future 2 evil timeline. The majority of them don't really give a shit or just follow along with whatever their parents or church say, like most Americans.

To be honest, I'm not even sure that what's being brought up in the post is terribly accurate to reality anyways. I've met plenty of frat bros and while it's not like they're the core of the vanguard, they're hardly all anti-choice libertarians. Except for the Ivy League ones of course, but those places deserve a little Cultural Revolution anyways

Social Justice, 1-2-3! (Woo Woo)
I wanna be PC! (Woo Woo)
It's just the way to be for me... And you! (Woo Woo)
Your hateful slurs are through! (Woo Woo)
(I call woo woo on you!)
(Woo Woo)
We'll fight until you're PC black and blue! (Woo Woo)
We are language police! Fighting bigotry! Hurtful words can suck our turds! 'Cause it's PC for me... And you! (Woo Woo)

I don't think I'm familiar with this song

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's from an episode of South Park, where a bunch of PC bros have a PC frat house. Then it's exposed that some might just be there to mislead women and "crush puss."

[–] SunriseParabellum@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think women would be more down with guys trying to crush puss if they had reproductive rights

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Surely everyone would be better off if the puritanical war on reproductive autonomy were squashed.

[–] SunriseParabellum@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

Yeah, you think more horny frat bros would realize this

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

They're just conservatives with an edgier label
