Good to see you back Pierce but I gotta disagree here, while I understand the premise of having your standards and I'm all for men having them! it's kind of cringe, this is going to turn off most women, especially on OLD, the only way I can see a guy get away with this, is if he's got the Henry Cavil gaze (meaning he's a top-tier LOOKING guy) for a regula looking guy, with a thin mustache making 40K a year women will just laugh at these things as you can see from the comments

Does this mean as a man you can't have standards? of course not but as a man especially if you're doing OLD there should be tact women on these dating profiles now a days will report for anything out of spite. Plus by writing these things notice how people are calling him "angry" and "incel" there is a way you can have your standards being conveyed with tact. You also have groups like "Are We dating the same guy" which is now city-based, why tarnish your reputation? like the law of power, you have to guard your reputation with everything. If the guy who wrote this is truly a top tier dude (for lack of veribage) women will come correct. The fact that he has to type all of this out he's basically guaranteeing that he won't win. I've learned you attract more bee's (women) with honey than vinegar once you attract the bee than you can tactfully decree your boundaries and standards

Just my thoughts

I was about to send the troops to hunt you down, glad you came back.

I love the profile. My thoughts exactly. Years ago I wrote a similar profile on Match. I dropped my thoughts in regards to women which included social media, tats, drama, careers, cooking/cleaning skills, etc. Some hated me for it, some couldn't relate at all, but there was another group that thought it was beautiful. They realized I understood women, and wasn't afraid to deter the ones I wasn't looking for.

There is still a small group of women that this will profile will resonate with. I commend the guy for having the balls and standards to do it. Thats the only way we will ever change things.

@Solomon - The ones it will turn off don't matter anyways. Let the haters hate. ITs time men raise the bar.

Uhh, I can't tell if you're serious, and it seems that I'm in the minority here - but this manifesto is laughably unhinged.

This has the same energy as when girls used to put together those dating powerpoints or the 6 foot/6 pack/6 figures requirements. It's almost word-for-word the exact doctrines espoused by red pill gurus who are always hypocritical when it comes to practicing what they preach (Fresh & Fit, No Fugazee, whatever podcast guy who doesn't believe in divorce but abuses women, etc).

Unless this guy is at Andrew Tate levels of "high-value man" (and let's be honest - if he was, he wouldn't be laying out his Match.com qualifications on Reddit) there's no way anybody reads this without realizing this person is going to hold a magnifying glass to THEIR life, but not HIS - notice how he speaks about demanding traditionalism when it comes to chores, but also that his woman financially contributes proportionally to what she makes.

This guy is getting ratio'd so hard in the comments, and deservedly so. Men should have standards, especially when it comes to long-term relationships, but this would be like a job recruiter demanding training and certifications before you even know if you want the job.

I think that Reddit post is ridiculous. Seeing as it's his one and only post over the 4 year age of the account, I wouldn't be surprised if it's just rage bait.

I would usually agree with you brother but not this time. Most women when it comes to OLD are going to judge this guy harshley you have to remember there a lot of weirdos that women deal with when it comes to OLD, having a link to a reddit post and making these demands. To most women screams "weirdo" Good luck like I said before unless the guy looks like Henry Cavil he will scare of 99% of women including decent women, the only type that may fall for this is one who is desperate or thristy to prove they are different and most likely he wouldn't go far anyway due to her looking like his homley Aunt from 1888

Not surprised most likely it didn't work for him or his dating profile may have been flagged lmfao
