[b]"The Pretty Girl Exception"[/b] - a phrase I made up to describe the phenomenon mentioned in the following paragraph:
There are many individuals who are kind and compassionate and easy to get along with--until you disagree with their politics. It changes everything in how they view and treat you. However, some guys do make exceptions for women they're attracted to, because guys are like that...

These are actually active conversations in conservative and libertarian threads. Guys whining about how most of the girls on dating sites are liberal and won't date them, or if they start talking politics on a date, the girl loses interest in them. Then the whole forum starts circle jerking each other using misogyny and "logic" as lube
It's kinda funny for me since I'm not conservative or libertarian, but from their point of view, it's a big deal apparently.
@Rutterman Online dating in general is rough for 80-90% of guys, so it does a number on their self-esteem. Dating advice threads are pretty rampant across the internet with people choosing to seek solutions among their peers. Similar threads pop up in forums for/about introverts, weight loss, personal finance, atheism, male pattern baldness, anti-feminism, etc.
Digging into political forums, this is something that usually comes up frequently. Most, if not all, of the guys end up blaming the woman for not agreeing with them. A few will even use the date as an opportunity to convert her. It's all pretty sad the deeper you go into it

@TinyViolins Loool, it's weird that conservative dudes are always saying that liberal girls are ugly, posting pictures of random women wearing alternative fashion, and then they're like "😡 these liberal women won't date me" when they see someone that they find attractive, lol. It's like...pick one, are we ugly or not? Damn
