As a long time libertarian I observed that in most of my libertarian male friends and in my life also, it seems we simply can't bond with women, there must be something obvius that we libertarians are blind at. Or it's just that we see how mainly all women are married with the state and demanding us to be state fiat slaves, which we deny, then it means no wife to you?

I don't know about marriage or libertarians, but almost all bitcoiners I know in real life are male have gone 10 or more years without getting a girlfriend. I am not sure why. They are a little odd, but I know many other odd males who do get in relationships (and they don't struggle more than the "normal" people).
Some other thing makes them unattractive to women and I don't really know what.

Well libertarians and bitcoiners are often the same person, maybe also nerd. Maybe people like that are boring, asking questions and questioning everything all the time.

Speculation as I haven't observed this but women are extremely socially motivated, and libertarians and Bitcoiners are contrarians / independent thinkers.
Any time you are going against the herd on a lot of things, it's seen as a risk to gals.

I'm not sure the premise is right. Most of the libertarians I know, or am familiar with, are married.
Setting that aside, The Righteous Mind might shed some light on the issue. Libertarians, who are almost entirely men, have different moral sensibilities than everyone else and likely aren't good at relating to non-libertarian sensibilities.
Conservative women would be able to understand their libertarian husbands, but progressive women likely couldn't, so there might just be fewer potential matches for libertarian men.

Why do we need to adobt any labels like libertarian? What's the point. I stand for freedom, whatever that means to me. No labels really fit. We are all individuals. Don't play the game and box yourself In.

To make it simpler to identify people with similar ideas, even though I don't go along with libertarians that supporto any kind of politics for example.

I remember reading in "How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World" that he does contracts on relationships. I found this to be a little weird. It might be great for a break up as each party knows what they're getting, but IDK. I just could never do such a thing, even if it means a painful divorce.

What does marriage and bonding with a women has in common? Marriage is just another scam, bonding is not :)

Well, if the bonding is good and real it ends in marriage.

why? Why do you need a state approved contract with your wife to be together forever? I don't get that part.

Oh I don't mean the state paper, I meant marriage as it has always been a religion or spiritual union of a couple. I am totally against state civil marriage paper.

There is this saying that the opposite characters are attracted to each other. I think this is not true. So I would advise you to fish in the same pond…
