You sound a bit like me, circa 1996 through 2001, 2002 or so.

I gave up. They're all sluts/whores. It's just a matter of degree, and what you're willing to tolerate.

I ended up marrying a divorcee who is older than me. She treats me better than any other woman I've ever been with, and she's a damn sight better than a lot of the wives and ex-wives I've read about across the manosphere over several years, but as I frequently say: if I could start adulthood all over again, I wouldn't marry anyone, ever.

Marriage is a shit deal for men. Even if you find some mythical unicorn, there are no guarantees. Women are fickle by nature, and the laws incentivize them to divorce you and take your shit. Just look at Steven Crowder. His ex-wife was supposedly a traditional virgin when they got married, and she still divorced him.

I'm kind of rambling a bit, but there's so much wrong in your post, and there's so much left to say...

I'm a 23M Christian, and I've been trying to figure out how people actually go about finding women who hold more traditional values when it comes to dating, relationships, family, etc.

I don't necessarily mean someone who is politically conservative across the board. I'm more talking about women who value things like commitment, loyalty, family, marriage, traditional relationship dynamics, femininity, etc. I'm fairly libertarian myself and don't expect someone to agree with me on every political issue. I'm mainly interested in finding someone whose general values and idea of relationships are compatible with mine.

The problem I'm running into is that it seems like traditional values can be pretty difficult to find in the modern dating scene, especially among younger people. And when you do find someone who seems to share those values, it can be difficult to tell from the outset.

I'm Christian, and obviously church is one place where you're more likely to encounter women with traditional values, but it feels somewhat disingenuous to start going to church primarily as a way of finding a girlfriend.

So for those of you who have actually managed to find a traditional woman to date or marry: where did you meet her? Dating apps? Social groups? Hobbies? Church? Friends of friends? Some particular online community? Reddit even?

And for those who have had the same problem, how have you gone about finding people who share those values without having to wade through enormous numbers of people who are fundamentally incompatible?

I'm not looking for a political debate about whether traditional values are good or bad. I'm more interested in hearing from people who have actually navigated this and figured out where these women tend to be.
