Rant Just wanted to show a different side to things

I’m a woman who reaches out and I don’t get responses either. It goes both ways fellas. It’s not just y’all, it happens to us too.

Edit: The assumption that I must be ugly or I’m aiming too high out of my league is a reflection on how many of you are broken on the inside and should take some time to find some healing. Your projection & insecurity is not my truth.

So sad to learn this about Canada, though I suppose it depends on where you live. Funnily enough, I know multiple guys who went to work in Quebec and came back having gone through a speedrun of feminism 101. One is a friend of mine who even approached me after he came back to apologize for the way he used to be a bit dismissive of my feminist concerns back when we were students. Hah !

Oh Canada has its douches. We just have an image of being progressive but we have our MAGA type crowd here as well.

But yeah even I as a guy won’t date a woman if she says she’s not a feminist. I 100% agree it’s important. But even here we have plenty that aren’t or are anti feminism. The stereotype of Canada is just that. A stereotype. :) but our racists and bigots used to be polite in their racism and fit that stereotype. Just is weird that they’re not anymore as they’ve gone MAGA-like and don’t mind being aggressive. But like I said at least it makes it easier in dating on who to avoid.

Can confirm. Worked for a Canadian veterinarian (in a town just over the border) and that lady was perpetually gargling trumps balls it was so weird. She was certifiable.

It’s sad. Especially when Trump has made our countries into enemies when we were close friends before 😢 I hope we can build back the alliance one day but won’t happen with Trump at the helm. I cannot date any maple MAGA respectfully when I see them as traitors to my country. Sadly my city is full of them.

I assume you live in a smaller town in Canada? Because Toronto and Vancouver are extremely liberal
