Depends on what perspective one looks at this. On one hand this will have negative societal consequences like lower birth rates.
On the other women don't have any obligation not to share a single fuckboy and to spread their legs and think about USA for some guy wanting a long term relationship.
Nah otherwise my slighty above average smug face wouldn't get me any likes on apps.
Thinking that only men with a shovel as a jaw are getting dates is wrong.
I’d say you can reverse this and it’s too competitive for women. Men constantly see photoshopped women with plastic surgery and a ton of makeup on social media and compare girls irl to them. Most of us don’t have the money for the surgery they get to look that way. Women used to be more natural looking even the most attractive ones like Marilyn Monroe looked realistic and achievable.
Wrong wrong wrong. Men have such low standards. How can women come up with these petty arguments. What you should say is women feel insecure because all they see is women with perfect bodies
@Asker Wow! Are you serious right now? She’s right! But, you call it a “petty argument.” You truly believe no woman alive gets plastic surgery?
@Peridot25 men go crazy for girls with small breasts you know that even though we like big ones
@Asker And that’s great. However, you can’t deny there’s men who like the fake beauties they see on social media.
@Asker And, if you like bigger breasts, go for women who have a big chest. I mean, you have preferences too like us women have preferences.
@Peridot25, Make a poll on here, most men don’t like plastic surgery and would prefer if women were natural. Just because simps like pictures of unrealistic women on Instagram doesn’t mean men as a whole want women to all look the same and fake. I think much of the pressure to have work done is impressed on women from other women.

I experienced the reverse of this before where someone accused me of this kind of comparison. In reality I just compared to the kind of people i'd see on an average swimming pool day and still found her super attractive. Sugery makes people look unattractive, I desire a natural beauty.
True but at least women can stop being obese…
Its competitive for everyone. If you aren't hot guys skip over you for the typical IG hoes. So I dropped out lol.
Dating Is and has never been a competition. People are not a prize to be won. The sooner you stop thinking like that the better.
Now? Its always been competitive if you're going have pretty girls. Everyone wants them. Its less competitive if you go after girls that aren't pretty. Duh.
Hoeflation is real and the data from dating apps bears that out: 20% of men get 80% of the women. This is a threat to civilization but you fools want to pretend it isn't because you don't want hurt some skanks' feelings.
I went on a dating site and I got turned down and ignored, too. People consider me attractive and nice, too.
The only way I can imagine you being turned down is if there were so many women on the site that not many guys even knew you were available. I think you're a fantastic lady, just based on your personality alone.
Watch a couple videos where a girl tries to date on a fake guys profile. They are always shocked at how much harder it is. A female dating site experience will not be comparable.
@sawno these weren’t fake accounts. Quit making excuses and see it for what it is.
You misunderstood, I am saying videos where girls try to see what dating apps are like from the mens perspective.
I'm average and I have little problem, but I also have no fear of approaching or of rejection. I do not care if I strike out 20 or more times because I know I will get a yes eventually.
If you think it's too competitive then you're probably not very confident and have lower self-esteem.
I'm a short dude and I never really have issues dating, the issue is finding someone that meshes well enough to continue to date.
Competitive is not the first word that comes to my mind when it comes to dating today.
It ain't hard. There's more single women than ever
No, it is easier than ever. People have so many options now. A guy I work with just met a girl on Facebook.
It's not.
I never had problems to find a promising contact, although it can be tedious.
Hoeflation has made dating less attractive to men.
Yeah but you can't give up or you've automatically lost the competition
You want a pretty woman.
Women want a pretty man.
Both have their preferences and definitions.
What's wrong with that
It’s still way easier for a man to find a pretty woman than vice versa
It's not, but the rewards are dropping like a rock.
They have realistic expectations you're just wanting women who are out of your league.
