Leftists will defend every lifestyle choice in the name of "sexual freedom" except the traditional male

If you want to participate in hook-up culture, running up your partner count, risking unplanned pregnancies and STDs, increasing your risk of divorce, and damaging your ability to pair-bond? The left will say do it, because it's your sexual freedom and no man has a right to judge you. If you want to change your gender, the left will say you can do that too, because your sexual autonomy overrides any other concerns, including medical considerations like infertility. The same goes for open relationships, swingers, legal sex work, etc. Everything revolves around sexual freedom and personal autonomy.

But if a man says he wants to marry a virgin or a woman with a low body count, then suddenly these considerations no longer apply. Suddenly the man is called the i-word, labelled misogynistic, backward, or a "fundy" if he's religious, and accused of being judgmental. Suddenly, his sexual freedom doesn't matter one bit, and often this judgement is applied even if he is a virgin or has a low body count himself.

All while women are celebrated for having high standards that they themselves cannot meet, and in some cases only apply to a very small percentage of the male population (eg. Age 25-40, must be 6 foot plus, earn 250k a year, and have never been married with no children from prior relationships). But if a man simply wants to find a virtuous woman who hasn't participated in hookup culture, which has been the standard for millennia in almost every culture, that is suddenly unacceptable to them. The hypocrisy is jarring.
