    Because they are traditional gentlesirs who think that feminism has ruined western women and therefore yearn for a cute, child-like, and submissive female partner who does not threaten their fragile sense of masculinity?

    I dunno, just guessing.

    I find this political compass stuff very reductive and limiting. There are far more than two important dimensions in politics

    Please don’t let me be the only one to point out that “economic-left” and “economic-right” do nothing to qualify or disqualify one another without an actual drilling down into the definition of either one.

    Also… authoritarian and libertarian aren’t opposites either.

    This graph may as well be a Y axis that says “flying pigs v. non flying pigs” vs an X axis of “mighty bullocks boys” on the top end vs. “the trout” on the bottom end.

      Oh, Political Compass quadrants are just horoscopes for political nerds, like how Myers-Briggs is horoscopes for people who don’t believe in the supernatural. Don’t read too much into it. That would be a very ENTP thing to do!

        God, I hate that roulette. “Classics enthusiast who isn’t terminally online and doesn’t realize the implications, or alt-right asshole?”
