How to find yourself a good climbing man

Curious Climberwrote:

I’m sincere. :)

When I go on Tinder and Bumble I will only have climbing photos and explicitly say I want a climbing man. Yet 99% of the time I get muggles.

After a while hikers start to look like climbers.

Thought you said muggers. I was very confused and concerned.

Climbers in general are a selfish breed, always thinking about where they want want to go and what they want to climb, the "men" particularly so. They also usually lack the funds to properly maintain a relationship which leads to feelings of bitterness to their "fairer" partner. In addition most dirtbags lack the maturity to even successfully satisfy their most carnal needs.

Thus, what you really want is a hiker you can convert to a climber. Take them for a test drive in the gym or on rock, if they can handle a few pointers and direction from the female POV without outward displays of reactionist machismo you could have a catch on your hands.

Make no mistake, creating a climber is hard work, especially in today's hyper masculine proud boys environment, but no one is better equipped than the modern woman.

Godspeed.

Someone just mentioned muggles in another thread….coincidence? I think not. 

I've heard the term for non climbers a few times from people around the country.

I am a Man

I am Kind

I'm insanely gorgeous

I can pass for 37

I love outdoor climbing

I'll climb 5.6 multipitch all day everyday and I'll carry the beer.

I am also in need of a climbing girlfriend.

That Quincy Quarries climbing life.

Your problem is you live in Boston. Move to a town with good climbing nearby. You'll have many options.

You would have great success in a place like Denver (aka Menver)

I have four daughters, and my post was not ironic.

@ City Dweller

Although I'm flattered, Curious Climber is not me, they may be a Tradifan perhaps?

I'll match you up with my buddy if i can have one of those totems

She posted Totems, 

either signals compensation issues or savvy target marketing.  Roll of the dice.   My bet is she’s sandbagging and undergrading.

If none of your friends have told you you are ugly in the past 12 months then you are at least mildly cute.

Ditch the  dateing apps and just  look for  partners.  Just go climbing and let  it happen.

This is a scary proposition considering all the desperate dirtybags out there but if one must, I suggest making it crystal clear that it's a date and the dirtybag should act like it is a date.

Yes, and review the thread on proper belay stance behavior!

What if it's only been 6 months?
