Many women will profess outwardly and even on their tinder profiles (increasingly the majority way people date) a strong preference for a partner who is politically egalitarian yet in their actual mate selection they will act like eugenicist fascists. "6 feet, 6 inches, 6 figures". It should be no one's surprise when the average height and phallic size of men continues to grow over time, especially throughout the western world, given how strong that the selection signals are from women. This is scary for those with a progressive world view, since conservatives try to monopolize masculinity. "Working out" as a man, being a "gym bro" etc are things that are lightly conservatively coded. Effeminate egalitarian nerds in American media are depicted constantly as being physically dominated by authoritarian and tyrannical bullies. Women will increasingly find conservative politics enticing by it's transgressive nature despite outwardly professing preferences against it. This is why black men in clubs tend to do well with white women despite dating app data showing systemic dating discrimination against black men.

> conservative politics enticing by it's transgressive nature Yup, nothing could be more transgressive than (checks notes) having the political views of your great grandparents’ generation.

  In a world where your great grandparent has double the testosterone rates, more than double the sperm counts, and significantly better fertility rates than their young peers, I stand by what I said unironically. Chances are also good that their great grandparents were getting laid far more often too! Also, there's been a lot written even in other liberal communities admitting that modern conservatism has essentially replaced the old "counterculture" that was previously held by hippies. This is because of a mainstreamification of "being woke" and of related ideology. Today, an honest to god "live in the forest off the grid type" who tries to live a conservative rugged man ideal is peak counterculture.
