American women should absolutely say it out loud, "If you voted for Trump, no pussy." I saw that stated (low-key) when I was dating a few years back. Their profiles either said, "Don't care about politics.", which translates as, "Fuck off with your Trump shit." Or, outright said, no MAGA, in those words.

I saw both types on tinder when I was using it a few years ago. Some would say “no MAGA” and some would say “no libs.”

I suspect religious indoctrination to be the main factor as this was UT and AZ but there are more women out there willing to vote for their own objectification and yoke than I think we assume.

ALL women need to go on general strike. Not just if you voted for Trump, for everyone. Hard-line for "no freedom? no work, no sex, no labor". Watch the economy cripple at the greatest union in history. Watch political organizations form behind women because they've been denied access to what women provide.

ALL women need to go on general strike.

It worked in Iceland

Funny, in Russia "I don't care about politics" usually means something similar to Trump support.

"No Z" I have seen a lot, but usually those very socialized etc girls have that. I'm aspie (probably also social anxiety and PTSD). Nothing to discuss with people whose profiles indirectly say "don't be a whiny bitch".

Well, I guess maga chuds can always just fall back on good ole reliable porn... ooohhh sorry dipshits, you banned that too.

[–] reddig33@lemmy.world 41 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (8 children)

The male maga chuds will just sleep with female maga chuds. This isn’t going to really accomplish anything except for liberals not getting laid or procreating.

Isn’t this how the movie idiocracy started?

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Except there aren't that many of those female maga chuds. That's why they're so keen on taking away womens' rights. The only way they can get laid is if the women have no choice.

Not sure where you are getting that idea. Almost half of the Latinos and whites who voted for Trump in 2024 were women.

There's more than you think. My workplace has tons of them.

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah it’s certainly not the majority of women and I would say it’s at best a 2:1 ratio. But there are many maga women in the dept of the fortune 20 company I work for

Didn't we see the Maga dating apps be flooded with dudes and barely any women?

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I have no facts to back up this claim:

Isn't that every dating app? Mostly men and bots?

I take solace in knowing that all the female maga chuds I know are hideous wildebeasts, bloated and putrid. Them and maga men are a match made in heaven.

Fun history fact, this is also called Lysistratic nonaction after a play by Aristophanes and has been seen in both myth and recorded history for a variety of purposes, usually to end wars or other violence, but also often to protest the infringement of women's rights.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 36 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Like the old adage goes, “there’s always a relevant Aristophanes play”

For now, McKenna isn’t sure exactly what 4B will look like to her in the election’s aftermath. She wants to do more research on the community. She’s not swearing off sex for ever, or taking a vow of celibacy. “Now when I go out with my girlfriends meeting people, instead of mingling to find a date, I’m going to mingle to get change,” she said. “When men come on to me, I’m just gonna push back.”

Good on them!

"Don't talk about politics on the first date" used to be a thing but now even as a man I think I would need to know someone's political views in detail before a second date. It's not enough to just vote for the same candidate. Plenty of people who despise each other's ideology voted for Harris. I'm even afraid to talk to some old friends about politics. I know they're Democrats but it's still possible for one of us to say something that would seriously damage the friendship.

It's like being Goldilocks. This one is too far right, that one is too far left...

If i used tinder, or the like, the first line would be “if you ever voted for trump, swipe (whatever way is bad)”

[–] babybus@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

On a side note, why do people swipe? I always find that pressing either button is more convenient.

Good on them. Hopefully the blue balls hurt.

Just an FYI, for better education. 4B = bisekseu, bichulsan, biyeonae and bihon. For context of the Korean meaning, romanized for pronunciation. no sex with men 비섹스, no giving birth 비출산, no dating men 비연애, and no marriage with men 비혼.

[–] Proposal6114@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Thank you, had no idea what it meant and didn't have enough initiative to go look.

At the risk of quoting supervillians, is it power if you're not using it?

Oh, I'm certain they're using it—just not giving it to men.
So yes, Pussy Power. 🤘

Some companies and government agencies have offered incentives for parents: one conglomerate gives employees who have three or more children a free car, and another constructing group has spent $5m on $75,000 cash bonuses to workers who have babies.

Fucking idiots
