The overwhelming majority of women know it’s much easier to meet a guy IRL and don’t rely on apps to actually find a partner (the ones on there are almost always there for something else). Why guys go looking in the wrong places for a girlfriend is beyond me.
It has nothing to do with high standards. Women just aren't settling for crap anymore. The days where you left school and grabbed a husband, any husband, because it was shameful not to be married are long gone.
I think its a complete BS excuse to shift blame on women having a certain standard.
Those men can just find a woman with a lower standard but these men also typically only desire beautiful women to be with while they are subpar physical looking themselves.

Let's see... 10% of men are 6' or over. Less than 2% are 7" or over. 10% are considered handsome. And I'd say probably 40% make 60k annually. Put those together and you're talking about 8 out of every thousand men who are good enough for your average woman who does online dating. But men are stupid simps who just can't help themselves. Online dating for men should be considered a form of self-harm. Seriously, guys. Stop putting up with this bullshit.
A woman on "Family Feud" listed her six-sixes: 6ft tall, 6inches, 6pack, 6figure salary... and I don't remember the rest. It was funny, but it extremely limits who she would date, and also limits who she could be happy with.
Honestly it is often their own fault. I often see guys turn down perfectly acceptable ladies because they think they can get the beauty queen - who is really just the product of makeup, Spanx, and a pushup bra anyway.
Because the numbers of men and women are about equal, the number of single men and women is also about equal until quite late in life when the male mortality rate becomes significantly higher.
When one sex outnumbers the other, they will have a hard time finding a partner. Men are in surplus online. Women have more choice, so the least attractive will not be able to find a partner online. In much of the country there are more women with college degrees than men. Professional women who delayed marrying into their 30's and are looking for a professional man may have a hard time.
Not all women are attracted to those men. There are women who prefer smaller men. There are women who do not care about the penis size. Just like how there are men that are attracted to small tits.
@MCheetah I don't really approach guys, they approach me and you know, I'm nice to them and get to know them, but it's like eventually they get over on me, which I know is technically my fault for being kind of a push over, so um.. I guess it's ultimately my fault for not standing up for myself
Makes sense. You need to see The Wizard to get some confidence. Not too much, but enough to not be a push-over. If you have that, you can then filter out the bad guys and go after the good guys without being entitled about it like so many other women are.
From my understanding, you're a tall white (or Asian) girl, so at least looks aren't a problem for you.
Women raised men who don't meet the bill for the daughters they raised.

Not relevant. You shouldn't rely on someone else for your happiness. I'm going to be happy whether I'm single or not. Because life is too short to be anything but.
Guys are usually aholes. I learned long ago to listen to women about women. Guys know nothing. That's from a female friend of mine. She's given me a lot of great advice. I think that the male population is mostly boys and not men and the same for the female population. Being girls and not women. I've met a lot of girls on my life but when I meet a woman it's rare and I remember them. I know that men and women both do bad things to each other so it's not a case of men bad women good. I want a loving relationship , sex is part of that but it's not the most important thing. To boys sex is everything and they just move onto the next girl when the one he's with won't go down on him. Men want to cuddle and do loving things for women. Men appreciate what they have and strive to perfect themselves in order to be one a better mate. Boys don't think that way at all. But females need to take a good long look at they guys they go out with. A guy who's in and out of prison and has a drug addiction isn't going to be a great partner or father. A guy who busted his ass to get through college and seeks to improve himself would be a much better choice.

looks like I could "do well" with dating apps...
if those are actually "the standards" lol

Women are going to have to lower their standards or live a lonely life kissing up on friends and complaining about men

You're describing me so well. No wonder why I get the girls.
My standards aren't very high, but maybe I should make them higher to avoid being treated like garbage
No. Just look for good men and stop going after the Chads. If a man is a 10/10, he's probably a Chad.
@MCheetah I'm not going after Chadss
Then why are they treating you like garbage?
@MCheetah I don't really approach guys, they approach me and you know, I'm nice to them and get to know them, but it's like eventually they get over on me, which I know is technically my fault for being kind of a push over, so um.. I guess it's ultimately my fault for not standing up for myself

@MCheetah Nooo, I'm a short mixed girl lmaoo
Mixed with white?
@MCheetah Mhmm
Takes two to tango. Lonely men need to stop aiming so high

I don't have any problem finding women to date, and I don't meet such standards.
The problem is that men are trying to date online, instead of just meeting people in real life.
If those women are that easily influenced to want those weird standards they are not good enough for me anyway 🤷♂️
Not all single men are lonely.
One can have all the things you mentioned above and still prefer to remain unattached.
It's all planned by feminism to ensure they can propose and be allowed to kill all men
Men brought it on themselves by believing garbage like this.
Yeap.
I can tell you're the angry lesbian from before.
Probably that African chick who hates all Black Americans, if I had to take a shot in the dark.
Anon. BUMBLE released that a full 90% of the women on their site had the filter set to screen OUT men below six feet tall.
@KrakenAttackin Then why are you trying to date on Bumble?

@MCheetah yet I have someone great and you have your empty bed and your pud in your hands.
@Hellraiser1984 Female troll.
@Hellraiser1984
No. You don't get to do that. You gave up all masculinity. Don't think you're entitled to respect now.
@KrakenAttackin
Yeah probably. Or more likely, a transperson. I can hear the lisp in the words they typed.
@MCheetah Agreed.
