Partner watching Andrew Tate

A few weeks ago, I discovered that my partner had been watching Andrew Tate videos.

At the time, I didn't even know who he was and didn't care. I even watched a couple of his less offensive videos which basically sold the idea of getting up early in the morning and going to work which I thought was harmless.

Since then I've noticed him watching more of his stuff. Every new thing about the trial and every new video - all of it basically. Whilst he says he doesn't like what he says about women, he also says "he just wants to see what happens next" and "there's no evidence for him to be held".

I'm curious to know whether this kind of thing would be a problem for most women. I don't know why I feel so uncomfortable about it but I find it really odd that he's so interested.

But tell that to the girls I've dated. What would you say if a girl said to you, on a first date, put your hands around my neck, strangle me, but not too hard. Or, I like being tied up 50 shades style, or after 2 hours of chatting, she says she's been tied up legs arms, or overhearing conversations from various girls such as I really want a , I want to be , I could do with a ing.*

You need to date a higher quality of women.

Those ones are too influenced by the BS that's been pushed at them , and are also unstable, poorly adjusted etc.

I've seen this 100 times on a male forums j used to go on - moan about all girls and tell stories about what they're like (as though it's all women) when in fact it's a sub section of women - abd not the stable, well adjusted ones. They always go for only looks and then wonder why their personalities are off. Cause you paid zero attention to their personality in your rush to get your dick wet.

It depends. Is he watching Tate's content and expressing the opinion that he is a misogynistic, dangerous prick preying on feeble minded, insecure young men or is he watching it and thinking Tate makes some valid points?

Bottom line, are you going out with an intelligent person capable of applying critical thinking to a diverse range of content or are you going out with an imbecile?

True but I remember going on holidays abroad and seeing plenty of women at the pool reading the first book or announcements in Facebook saying “really looking to read this while having a relaxing holidays followed by a naughty emoji, I thought then how cringe was that and feeling sorry for their partners, they didn’t know what was coming to them 🫣🫣

It was fashionable.

That was fairly meaningless.

Mostly it caused an increased sale in fluffy hand cuffs and then things continued as normal.

What’s the point of bumping all threads purely to post an article about this scumbag?

I have also watched Abdrew tate. It's fascinating. But abhorent I also wanted to see what the fuss was about
I have watched several. Providing his behaviour hasn't changed then he's probably viewing it in the same way I am

I also watch things on serial killers. Durante make me want to be one
