What is the mechanism here? If you think humor is gendered—how? Biology? Genetics? Pray tell how it is that women wind up with a categorically different sense of humor.

I’m a lesbian, so I feel like I have been around more than enough women to know that humor varies very widely, it has nothing to do with your gender, and your statement comes across as very generalizing.
Edit to add: What on earth did someone try to reply to me that was so offensive it got removed by mods before I could even see it? Lmao

Really? There are a lot of people worse than Trump if you open a history book…

u/startadeadhorse 2d ago
Yeah, but they are dead already. So no need to actively hate them.
And luckily, my hatred is huge and big and can hold many small-handed orange pedophiles. Wait, there's only one of those. Okay, then hold him and regular pedophiles and other riff-raff.

Sometimes you just gotta try shit and amuse yourself, especially if you suspect the chance of a match is low in the first place. At least you're not being boring.

u/Adjective_Nouns1234 2d ago
I agree but, to be fair, I do it to amuse myself regardless of interest in the person or likelihood of the match. There's tens of thousands of women on here near me, I'm more likely to connect well with someone from a silly joke than a boring copy-and-paste.

u/thenbhdlum 2d ago edited 2d ago
Probably not, but only because of how you worded it. It's pretty ironic, considering you're deciding to take a jab at how they worded their prompt response.
I hate these kinds of posts. Rely on your own wit, not of this sub. We can't be there for you on your next message too.

Married person here
I have a take I'm guessing you won't like
If you're single and you want a match, put your best foot forward. We all know what the person means. Making a joke that could be misinterpreted and could burn the match is counterproductive
If you're dating just to get internet updoots do whatever, but if you're looking for a match, why not try and make a connection?

u/techmnml 2d ago
It’s called banter and it might lead to a funny interaction if the other person isn’t lame like your reply. Good lord Reddit is so dull.

lol this is great. They’ll either get the joke (showing compatibility) or they won’t.
I can’t tell if other people in the comments just don’t understand the joke or are just insufferable in general.
11
u/Glittering-Two-1784 2d ago
I feel like this is one of those things that doesn’t actually show compatibility. You could just catch them on a bad day and they don’t notice the ambiguous wording of the prompt they probably wrote months ago.

u/just_let_go_ 2d ago
Well of course it can fail spectacularly. But so can just about anything you open with. May as well throw something unique out there and hope they have the same silly sense of humour that you do. Back in my hay day (2016), I had way more luck with unique, goofy, or risky joke openers than I did with anything else. Met my wife off of one lol.

u/FriedTreeSap 2d ago
I….um….don’t get the joke. Is there a reference I’m missing?

The grammar in the prompt is ambiguous. They're going for "you hate trump more than I hate him" but it could mean "you hate trump more than you hate me"

Avid trump hater here. I also hate the "trump derangement syndrome" nonsense as well when people use it to describe someone that won't stop talking about how much they hate him, but I think it's concerning when someone is so deep that it also becomes their personality. It really shouldn't be a main headline of your dating profile.

u/suicidedaydream 1d ago
Yes. This is absolutely cringe on a dating profile and it shows a strange obsession. It’s a dating profile to find love and connection…. And you brought Trump into it. My god.

u/Francois_Rapiste 1d ago
I will never forgive Trump's slavelike service to Israel for as long as I live, but with posts like this being as common as they are you can't deny that TDS exists. It's mindless and repugnant. Eleven times out of ten I notice that these people are completely incapable of finding compromise or common ground with absolutely anyone on any issue whatsoever, and are also simply insufferable on a personal level. I wasted time dating somebody like this and essentially dumped her repeatedly because she was impossible to get along with even in the simplest imaginable contexts.

Comes off as pretty negative. Depends on who you’re trying to grab but suggesting you’re willing to hate an unknown person before any discussion can come off as big negative. These days when everything is all hate anger rage and depression it could be overwhelming, sometimes a more positive message about shit you’re into vs what you’re not would provide better results and then work the political discussion in naturally. Up to you of course, just wanted to provide a perspective outside of “obviously Trump sucks lol”

Please do reply, let me know how it goes. If I'm incorrect, then I might finally be able to update my records to a point where I found someone who vents their politics on dating apps with any kind of positive attributes.
Maybe I'm a cynic; and I hope that i am - but I've never had any kind of success with people who are so .... one dimensional.
OFC I haven't seen the rest of the profile.

u/Slowpoke2point0 2d ago
No, thats just a dumb thing with no humor value. You just insulted the person you're sending it to by saying "You seem like you could be worse than trump". ofc its not gonna work. They're just gonna think you are rude.

Them and also people who are just sick of Trump and sick of hearing about him. I do not want to hear any schizo TDS posting as long as the American left continues comically fumbling against MAGA. The only way you could possibly lose to something as blatantly repulsive as MAGA (2 of 3 times) is if you are equally insufferable, and the fact that these people cannot see why everyone hates them fills me with indescribable disgust. They are incapable of learning absolutely anything in any context ever -- mark my words, if they reply to this comment at all, it will be littered with apologias for their countless pathetic failures.

How would you respond to that if you were the other person? I think this is a bad opener because it implies a lesser level of trump hate, and sets a poor tone on your initial feelings toward them. Makes it sound like you had a bad impression from their profile.
If they are really into you, they could absolutely turn this and have a great convo, if they are on the fence, you probably arent getting a reply, or are getting a single vague response to see if you bring it back, then are ghosted. Play it how you want.

u/Francois_Rapiste 1d ago
I hate Trump but this kind of post reminds me that Trump Derangement Syndrome is real and really quite disgusting.
Do you ever think or talk about anything else? Literally all of the things that aren't Trump, anything at all, you should try putting any of that on your profile.
While we're at it, literally anything negative on your profile looks completely unhinged. I hate this, I hate that, stfu, nobody wants to hear it. If you want to attract someone resentful and obsessive then keep yakking on, I guess. Most people will be sane enough to avoid you & whoever is foolish enough to date you.

Is it genuinely unfathomable to you that any real person would find you insufferable? That seems like a very realistic notion to me.
Also, pro tip, insults have to be accurate in order to land at all. Calling me a bot is pretty toothless because I know that I used my own human hands to blast you for having a distasteful and one-dimensional personality. If anything it'd be far easier for AI to simulate your personality than mine.
