People hold these views. The fact he's trolling doesn't exclude him from holding some or all of them. Whether he holds these views or not isn't relevant to understanding these views. Here are some reasons why a conservative man would hold these views.

These threaten his religious sensibilities:

  • Use of profanity or vulgar language
  • Any piercings
  • Vapes
  • Hugs the bouncer on a night out
  • Skimpy clothing
  • Tattoos
  • Atheist

These threaten traditional roles for women, which he needs to deny women access to public life and define his own masculinity:

  • Over 500 followers on IG
  • Has a twitter account (Other microblogging platforms do count)
  • Cannot cook

These threaten his masculinity because he associates them with men:

  • Knows what a barbell is
  • Been to more than 3 countries

These threaten the dependence that he thinks women should have on him and all the other reasons apply to these as well:

  • Has a drivers license
  • Can think for herself
