“I felt like, being in conservative politics, there would be more, like, masculine men in the conservative movement,” Housley says, “and I find that a lot of them aren’t as masculine as I would have hoped.”

“I felt like, being in conservative politics, there would be more, like, masculine men in the conservative movement,” Housley says, “and I find that a lot of them aren’t as masculine as I would have hoped.”

You've confused conservative men with conservative male politicians. There are masculine conservation men, though if they crow about their alpha-ness then they're not.

Conservative male politicians are a mixed bag of redophiles, rapists, homophobic self-haters, high school losers who suddenly came into power by deceit, corruption and theft.

Conservation men seem the type to be very masculine. Park rangers, foresters, zookeepers, etc. Rugged and outdoorsy jobs conservation puts you in. Unfortunately for conservatives they've been politically opposed to it for decades
