I'm a fiscal conservative. I'm also mostly centrist on social issues. That would probably make 99% of my opinions on anything very unpopular on this forum.
Which is why I don't share my opinions here.

There are actually tons of women who want children and value family life over a career, you're probably not looking for them, but expecting to find them?
Youre a good person.

"Fuck you, I've got mine" doesn't tend to go down well with most people.
The same can be applied to pretty much everything related to criminality and how we treat criminal offenders as a whole.
Punishment hasn't solved anything and does nothing to make the world a better place. It's pure bloodlust-addled nonsense.
It's a fucking shame that this view is apparently unpopular in the blood-filled streets of America. We've gotta have our daily shootings and keep licking our wounds as the price of FREEDOM (despite incarcerating far more people per capita than every other nation on Earth). Because the freedom to die violently in prison for performing acts out of desperation due to the hole America loves to throw marginalized people into is such a grand design, right?
Fuck, I hate this country.

On that note: My opinion on the arts is always right, and if you disagree with it you're automatically wrong and either low-brow or pretentious, depending. (That sounds absurd once typed out lmao.)
She can be a mom (like you can be a dad), but a housewife? lmao. Nah fam, split them chores and get over it lol.
Nah, I wasn't even bugged when she was banging that artist dude. Frank spent a whole season nailing Zoe, what's the difference?? I thought all her complaints were valid and he was a selfish jerk.
Care to go into detail?
It's weird that you automatically equate anal sex with homosexuals, even though there are all types of studies (went ahead and Google'd) that say a ton of hetero people have anal. Maybe the concept of anal in general just doesn't agree with them?

I'm not sure what you're referring to. What's this "fuck you, I got mine" that you're referring to? (Is it some sort of online meme?) Also, what do you mean by "anywhere?" A lot of my friends think like me, so....
You better explain yourself, otherwise you're proving my point. (GAF members by and large being openly hostile to different political points of view.)
America's Democratic party would be considered far-right wing in most other first world countries.
I think he means that "fiscal conservatism" usually ends up with "trickle down economics" aka the rich get richer and fuck the poor. Turns into haves and have nots, and the haves obviously want things to stay as they are.

I'm a fiscal and moral conservative so I hear you.
This is lies. Rosemary seasoned bread is amazing.
I don't think the "honor and shame are huge parts of it/I'm an expert" meme is funny. Honestly, I don't get it.
I think the STEM circlejerk is not only untrue, but a sign of immaturity. Many more experienced tech-oriented people often come to recognize the importance of non-technical soft skills, even in their own field.
I think religion can have beneficial effects on one's life and happiness, as long as it's not taken to the point of fanaticism.
I think being skilled, popular, high-ranking, or otherwise accomplished does not give someone a license to be an asshole.

I don't think many of these are unpopular, well outside of the first point. You can trust me on this, I'm an expert.

Nothing is more annoying than this recent trend of digging up any bad thing some person ever did then using it to condemn their entire existence.
We are human beings. We are fallible, we make bad decisions, those decisions do not necessarily disqualify our contributions to society.

I think his response to your humble opinion on political and social views, sums up why a lot of people don't bother engaging in thorough political debate on GAF.

The perceived usefulness of smart phones is inversely related to the usefulness of its operator. That is, people who "can't live without their phone" are useless. People who become reliant on them seem to be completely crippled at basic skills such as navigation when they're taken away.

I don't like Bacon that much. I usually prefer Turkey Bacon if it's available because I think it tastes much better.

Philip DeFranco is the future of news.
I find the Thor 2 thing funnier than the "I'm an expert" thing, and I don't know why.
This should not be a unpopular opinion.

Unregulated gun ownership has essentially served that purpose, not sure why you see that as desirable.
To me this might be the laziest way to criticize something that is popular.

I think we need to make more durable phones, because honestly I think this line of reasoning is bad. Like did people say this about the compass when it was first made?

I think learning How to swim and having a swimming liscense to prove it should be manditory in North America.
Also there should be official badges encouraging adults doing outdoor activities, and helping the environment.
I don't know exactly where I am going with this but, people should be encouraged and officially rewarded for
Keeping their local community clean, and environmentally sound.

Breath of the Wild being the justification to like Nintendo again is dumb and it's overrated for being the start of a new era (which has considerable downsides) as opposed to any of its merits as a game.
People who make general remarks about Nintendo IPs as a whole are full of it.
Satanists, even ironically, are terrible for idolizing a symbol of every single terrible aspect of humanity.
Ironic religions are varying degrees of awful. The file sharing one can go fuck itself.
EDIT: In the current moment, the Wii U is a better console than the switch. This is tangentially related to my first point.

Well, it is common "knowledge" that looking/searching for women doesn't always work. As a matter of fact, the right person "finds you".
So, I go out, meet people, etc, but not with the intention of SEARCHING for something.
Anyways, good post. That gives me hope, buddy
I don't mind splitting the chores (that was never part of the problem). With music on the background washing dishes, mopping the floors, even ironing clothes can be entertaining.
I do all of that now, and I even clean the shit boxes of the fucking cats that my gf has

Fiscal conservationism and centrist views are held by people speaking from a position of privilege, be it by being born into that position or being fortunate enough to be successful where many failed to even get a fair start.
In other words, you're comfortable and you don't give a damn about other people so long as it doesn't affect you.
I wouldn't be surprised if some people did that.
The same argument is made for giving kids calculators too early in school.
Personally, I do think that kids should learn to do math themselves before they learn to do it on a calculator.

There is nothing wrong with countries with a pretty homogeneous population (i.e. the main ethnic group takes up 90-95% of population) declear war on drugs. With a countries that has multi ethnic population, you may have a leg stand on accusing "The Men" using was on drugs to keep the minorities down. But American elites already got everybody hooked on sugar and obesity, I don't know why are they bothering with the other addictive substance.

The bolded is 100% not true of what I believe. So I'm going to ask you politely to not speak for me, since you know absolutely nothing about me. I'm gonna hold firm to my belief system. Now, we can have a civilized exchange of ideas that doesn't involve you making uneducated, nonsensical generalizations. Thanks.
Alright there's a lot of weird pitches in this thread, but this one really got me, so I have to ask: why on Earth do you thinking learning to swim should be mandatory?
You could probably explain what fiscal conservatism means to you, as that term has been pretty heavily co-opted by Reagonomics "experts" and far right in recent years.

Yeah sorry. My post was more meant to be encouraging, as in, it's still okay to think about raising a family and sticking to family values and not lose hope. It's true that most young women in big cities are career oriented, but if you slightly shift away from the big city life, you probably find what you're looking for. This is not in an way encouraging you to break up with your gf *I'm not responsible for any of that.

There's a bunch more opinions that people aren't sharing because it's not worth it given the venue.
There's a bunch of posts that aren't unpopular and were posted solely for the reassurances of someone saying "You're not alone! I feel this way too!"
And a couple bonuses:
Your degree isn't worth nearly what you think it is. Even now. Sooner than later, it'll be just a footnote that hiring managers gloss over while they study your more relevant skills.
Speaking of, rather than seeing overwhelming student loan reform, I think you're going to see a regression in the percentages of students going to college and more entering the workforce earlier. And the world will continue unfazed.
Our political energies are spent in the inverse of where it would do the most good. National politics are the headliners while your local government has significantly more influence over your day to day life. By that same token, you show me someone who will vote down one column without so much as knowing anything beyond the (R) or (D) at the end and I'll show you a fool.
If we collectively only posted in threads where we had more than just the most superficial knowledge, post counts would drop like a stone

and we'd probably be more productive during our work day. Fortunately, that doesn't happen.

Jonathan Mitchell is probably my favorite author when it comes to neurodiversity. I will not have a say in the debate because I am not autistic, but I understand why people are hostile towards neurodiversity.
