      that you are lucky and statistically that isn’t an option for most folks.

      I’d love to date a woman who mountain bikes. The ratio of men to women in mountain biking is about 100 to 1, far worse than video games. my chances of finding a lady who wants to do that with me is astonishingly low.

      however what is very common, is for meet a woman who lectures me on how stupid and dangerous and dumb mountain biking is and that i should stop doing it. that’s like 1/4 ladies I meet.

        I am sorry that you are the victim of toxic femininity. It’s a pandemic almost. Please do know that it is a small subset of women and not all of them, don’t let the fringe psychos deter you from trying to find someone to love, she’s out there for you, there’s just a bunch of gnomes in the way. Just step over them, you’ll be fine.

        Yeah, that sucks, man. I mean, it is a dangerous hobby, my nephew is really into mountain biking and I keep hearing about his hilarious but serious injuries.

        However, if you love it, like you clearly do, that’s just part of the game. It’s not surprising that you have trouble finding a gf who can be okay with that part, and ideally you would indeed want someone who you can worry about equally because she keeps falling off mountains and breaking ribs or getting concussions or whatever.

        Given the ratio you’ve listed, it should be extremely easy to find women into mountain biking. Though I suspect you meant the inverse of what you said.
