Would girls still want me if I said I lived with my parents as a 30 year old grown ass man that can't afford his own place?

If they were of similar age and economic background, then yea it should not be a problem. And there are also plenty of people outside of that age range and background that would still want you. Thought probably not many who would if that was your opener.
Again, trying to uplift my fellow person, not sure how to say this without sounding like a sjw or something. But if you are 30, then "girls" needs to dropped. Women.

Conservative family values...
Look I don't have a bone to pick with the idea of multigenerational living. It's a system that works great for some families. For me though, the most peaceful day of my life is going to be the day after my mother dies. I sometimes dream about how incredible it will feel to know that vile crone will never be able to hurt me again. There is no amount of money you could pay me to live with her again, I've chosen homelessness over it before. No banker's conspiracy did that.
We should absolutely destigmatize the idea of living with your parents, but it is not a solution to our housing crisis. If anything, this rhetoric is similar to that employed by corporations regarding recycling. It pushes the responsibility onto individuals not doing enough, rather than looking at the large levels of corporate property ownership that is the root cause of our crisis.
Raised by grandparents.
When gma died I literally did a dance. And she was thousands of miles away.
Honestly was one of the best days of my life. Actually my life took a massive upswing then. I finally felt empowered.
Wife was horrified, but she wouldn't understand.
I very much disagree with this. Paying your own rent means you have a place to call your own, even if someone else owns it. Paying a mortgage means you own your own property and have the ability to do whatever you want with it, even if you're tied to a bank.
At 18, you're essentially starting your life, and sometimes you need space to do that.
I miss living with family. Lived with my inlaws for a few years and then with my grandmother for another few before moving out on our own. We're selling our house soon and moving back with our inlaws. I've never been so burnt out and exhausted and I'm so looking forward to having extended family around to help with our kids again.
Abolish rent, abolish ext family living.
jokes on them, our generation can't afford to live alone anymore
entertainment and stress relief to cope with being alone
Congratulations sailor, you made it to Friday
