If he got out of his area he realize it’s a USA society thing not limited to the Bible Belt. I live in liberal area and sounds almost exactly the same as him, so what’s the common denominator between a Bible Belt and a atheist liberal strong hold?


Both are targets for the explosive belts /darkHumor

The difference is a conservative would say "Oh ****" when it happened, and a liberal would say "I'm sorry this is clearly the white people's fault."


^ This.

I am not an atheist but even if I was, why do you have a problem with them? I don't blame the ones who are level headed feeling targeted because they get accused of being "Satanic" or lacking morals.

Conservative cesspool: people spit in your face for being different.

Liberal cesspool: people smile to your face, and spit in your food when your back is turned for being different.


Yeah. No liberals get up in your face and call you racist and other insults if you aren’t like them. I’m a baby killer for owning guns don’t yiu know. And I’m racist cause I don’t support illegal immigrants. They also have tantrums. But besides the point. They watch sports, drink beers, etc. just like the Bible Belt.


I don't disagree, I'm just talking in general.

IMHO, liberals are just as racist/homophobic/ect. as "conservatives," but they just hide it better.


The Advise Show are a glaring example. They actually think God is going to judge all white people and is slowly killing them off. They also think homosexuality is a "white disease".

They are no better than the KKK. Unfortunately, most liberals ignore them and some even agree with them. I just hope their views stay confined to their channel but I doubt they would ever make it to Vidcon because their content is formulaic and trite. It's mostly Phil announcing what video or article he just saw, rolling said video or article, and him giving a long and droning opinion of it.

I'll say that living in AR I haven't seen the whole dudebro mentality that Marknis has described. What I have seen is the "usual redneck preference" for men that are super confident and like some for of sports (or mudding). Being on the geekier end of the spectrum has been quite frustrating for me.

Same. I've been on dating sites for years and they are a treasure trove for just about everyone here but me. I can hardly find a single profile that isn't some variation of "I'm a country girl who like farms and pickup trucks and hunting and fishing and never going inside!" There's nothing wrong with any of those things but it doesn't help a guy like me find an ideal match. And people (some of them on here) have told me to spend time with them anyway like I'll enjoy those things by proxy, but I can't see that happening. I love my parents and I like visiting them (sometimes) but I'll never sit down and watch a whole football game with them.

I've been saying this so many times I have lost count but in my case it's not just "cowgirl looking for a cowboy" types but also single mothers and fat ghetto 'hoodrats'.

Redneck women in my area tend to be trashy, loud, drunk, and have damaged skin from being in the sun without sunscreen for too long. They also love country music and demand their 'cowboy' be a Christian even if he doesn't truly follow the tenants of Christianity.

Average redneck woman in my area:

The ones in your image are in the minority here and have dozens of men chasing after them so the deck is already stacked against someone like me.

Perhaps they're the same type. Maybe it's not the women in your area, but how you see them.

In my experience, attractive (Especially the "hot" types) women generally already have a boyfriend or if they are single, they'll have a lot of men after them. I am honestly looking more for the "cute" and nerdy/geeky types but I either see them with a boyfriend/husband or I don't know where the single ones hang out because my area doesn't really cater to people like myself and them.

Austin is beckoning you.....

Maybe you'll get lucky enough to find somebody from Austin online....

Don't they have "artsy" sorts of places in or near some community college or something?

The community college in my city has an art department but it was a disappointing experience for me. I got a low grade, no one wanted to be my friend both times I've tried, and the main instructor was a sleaze bag. He actually tried to date my mother after giving me a low grade! :x

Why don't you spend more time outside your area then?

You're probably climbing on a vertical treadmill.
