I stumbled across this post on nostr today.

Since my wife is a behavioral biologist specialized in sexual selection, I had to show her this clip.
We spent over one hour on the couch talking about it.
Admittedly, the pill revolutionized women's rights. They can choose when and with whom they get pregnant.
It liberated women. And I love it! Go girls!
But it has its trade-offs, like everything else.
It is a fascinating subject and I love to think about these things with my wife.
But the tl;dr of our conversation, without bothering you with details, is this:
Since we are for more equality and transparency, I want a filter on dating apps for men! Or educate men to ask specific questions.
If you want to date for sex and jump around in beds, have the filter on for birth control pills, you know both of you are safe and there is no responsibility for you. Go have fun!
But if you are serious about a relationship and want to find a permanent partner, turn off the filter and search only for women who are not on hormonal birth control.
This way, there is no chance that she will lose her attraction to you once she stops using birth control.
It would be fair for both sides!
Give both bodies a chance to use their super powers and make a plain field to smell and taste each other and see if you like each other or not!
So no perfume, no deodorant, no hormonal contraceptives! Get smelly!
From my own experience I can say I had a girlfriend for over 3.5 years and when she switched to a different birth control method away from a hormonal one our relationship crumbled and she cheated on me. Sure that was not the only factor, but still now when we analyze the situation it fits perfectly.
So why bother with 3 years if you weren't a match in the first place. Give the man the freedom to choose just like the women!

I do use some dating apps, Feeld seems very liberal with filters about sexuality but all most lack filter by race, sexual orientation and single moms

Single moms should also be a filter :D

Not against single moms, but there should be one filter

I think your wife has a very interesting line of work, yet you've lost me on the "Yay!!" on promiscuity, it's a cancer.
reply
Everyone should have the freedom to do whatever they want as long as they do not harm anyone else!
I'm not in that 'promiscuity' camp at all. Otherwise I wouldn't have a wife and getting a child soon. But I'm also in no way forcing others to follow my path.

Hm, you're always neutral?
reply
Of course not! I definitely have my thoughts, preferences and morals.
But it will never give me the right to force something onto someone else
