Comment on That explains it.

I’m not an old dude, but I mean these women need that crowd to make money. It’s weird calling them creeps but at the same time they are posting nearly nude photos of themselves publicly on social media. Who do they think is following that content? Physicists at CERN calculating the new gravitation force off of your oversized diaper butt BBL? medical doctors determining the tolerance a 115lb woman with 1000cc of silicone can tolerate? Get real, you’re posting your tits because you know exactly those types of dudes will follow and you can either trick them into giving you money for feet pics or buying you a weekend in Dubai.
These 22 year old “model influencers” will be begging for these old dudes to pay them attention when they hit the wall in 5 years.
You may not be an old dude, but it sure seems like you already hit the wall.
Friend of mine’s father, who was seventy at the time, got hit on by an older lady at the grocery store.
Lamenting that he didn’t follow it up with her, “she was eighty, but a young eighty, if you know what I mean”
Wall? Gtfo, dumbass
I think you may have misunderstood.
If you’re a 22yo “influencer” and your target market is people who follow 22yo influencers then it will be difficult to generate engagement when you’re 27.
That doesn’t seem that controversial to me, and I don’t see how octogenarians getting laid at the supermarket is relevant?
I can’t find where she called them creeps but I think her issue is that they are married.
I dont think they generally deny what you are saying
If I were to do that, I’d probably do it for the money. I would get unfaithful followers (hard to pinpoint who because open relationships and other types of relationships exist, but statically, there will be), and that wouldn’t make it any less uncomfortable. I personally hate unfaithful/dishonest partners.
Men looking at boobs doesn’t make them unfaithful.
Depends on your relationship
The post wasn’t about ordinary women going through their lives in healthy ways. It was about young women influencers and the old men who follow them. The reason why is obvious.
C’mon, bro, be better than that.

Yeah, they kind of had a point until they busted out the incel-speak at the end.

That “hit the wall” stuff is always hilariously transparent. It’s a self-soothe. “She won’t be worth it in a few years anyway so you’re missing out.”
I’m 38 and the wall where I stop getting unwanted attention sure never seems to come. Which is disappointing. I’m really looking forward to my crone era.

So the moral of the story is that boobies are good even after they turn 27?

I have written this before, but I don’t think it actually stops. I do not think it’s even about looks really. Or at least I’m over 50 and still getting catcalled on my way to work. Fully expect to be 90 and have some kid yell “Lookin’ spry, grandma!” at me from a moving car.

Your comment very much reminds me of an episode of 30 Rock in which Liz Lemon starts dressing like an old crone and acting crazy on the subway to secure a place to sit.

Have you started collecting toadstool and eye of newt? How is your mad cackle coming along? Are you behind on setting up your 401crone?

The ones using the wall thing can’t even tell how old a woman is anyways. I got told I’ll hit the wall once I reach 26 and then I will have regrets. I was already well into my 30s at that time.

At they end? The whole thing is toxic incel red-pilled hate speech.
spacecadet@lemm.ee 13 hours ago
Is an incel someone who doesn’t white knight for women who couldn’t care less about their own existence? It’s gotten to the point where incel just means “a guy who believes men and women should be equal”. Yeah, I was exaggerating when I was saying 27 but there are tons of women online regretting not taking relationships more seriously when they were in their 30’s.
absentbird@lemm.ee 12 hours ago
No, that’s not even remotely true, and it’s not what your previous comment was saying either.
Incels are essentially misogynists with a sexual fixation. Like classical misogynists tend to be more occupied with women having jobs or holding positions of power, while incels tend to be more upset about women’s sexual habits, but both are preoccupied with hating on women they deem to be misbehaving.
I think the part of your previous comment that gave the most ‘incel vibes’ was the bit about women begging for attention after ‘hitting the wall’ in their 20s. Maybe you intended it as a comment on women who regretted not taking relationships more seriously in their 30s, but it came off as a sort of fantasy where the women who transgressed your model of how ladies should act get their just desserts.

If men only date women below 30 (or 27 apparently??) for their youthful appearance, what incentive do those women have to take dating seriously? Those men won’t stay anyway. This is the main contradiction in incel rhetoric. If you don’t like to look at women past 30, women shouldn’t date you “seriously “ while in their 20s.

Lingua franca dude. I’ve never heard “hit the wall” used outside the man-o-sphere. Maybe not exclusively incel, but incel adjacent at least.
Traegert@lemm.ee 13 hours ago
It’s become a generic insult like re*d or faot was. Or still is for some people. Probably the same crowd. Saying that creepy old dudes are generally mainly interested in younger women and would lose interest as they get older is kinda the point of why they’re creepy old dudes. Not an incel thing to say, just how creepy old dudes work.

It’s what Decaprio does so…
WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 16 hours ago
Dicaprio hasn’t been a role model for me since I saw him in basketball diaries and spent the next few years trying to be just like Jim Carroll. Never again Leo. Never again.

captainlezbian@lemmy.world 16 hours ago
I will say that by 27 creepy old men did stop yelling their attraction at me as I walked down the street, which was nice
WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 16 hours ago
Are you sure it was because of your age or was it in respect to your Rank? Unless you were still a Lt. Lezbian at the time. Here’s hoping Major is soon!

They certainly were particularly vocal back when I was an ensign
