Who are more desperate: men or women?

Question

There is no black-and-white answer to this question, because the answer changes as people grow older.
Between the ages of about 15 to 30 women hold all the power, because men are so driven by their testosterone and psychological conditioning (culture and society) that all but a minority become irrational, so great is their desire to be with and mate with women.
Because women are being approached, usually frequently if she looks even half-way attractive, they tend to become obnoxious bitches who develop a sense of entitlement, sneer at men who show them respect and courtesy, exploit men and think that the party will go on forever.
About age 30, this begins to change.
The females, who have dined out (literally, as well as figuratively) on their looks for nearly two decades begin to hear their ovaries counting down to zero and, at the same time, male interest in them declines noticeably.
The decline in interest in caused by a combination of their fading beauty (accelerated by things such as smoking, sun exposure, alcohol and drugs); the males who once lavished attention upon them looking at the next crop of fresh-faced 20 year olds; and other males (the ones who these women had rejected for the previous decade and a half) walking away and, sometimes, going MGTOW.
By the time that the women are 35 years old, the combination of ticking ovaries, fading beauty and declining male interest has reversed the power dynamic and it is men who hold the whip hand.
Around that age, it becomes normal for women to make the first move, in terms of approaching men. This is for the simple reason that men no longer approach them. Women call it 'becoming invisible'.
I experience this female behaviour frequently.
Just last night I did security at a wedding and, as per usual, the older single women (divorcees, widows, career women who left it too late) went out of their way to chat me up. They were disguised interrogations, rather than conversations. Within two minutes they had asked questions that were intended to find out whether or not I was married, heterosexual and what my asset base looked like.
There was a not unattractive 35 year old who looked longingly into my eyes after she told me that she was there alone, did not have a husband or boyfriend, was desperate to have a baby and had hired a suite at the venue for the night.
The following video is worth half an hour of your life, especially if you are a 20 or 30 something woman.

Relationship wise, depends on the age, generally women tend get more as the grow older and still be single, But men are very disparate to fulfill their needs when they are younger.
But not all people get generally desperate just because there love life isn't good, few people have more important things that they can be stressed about like finding a job, being successful and so on. And about this men are more desperate in general but independent women are equally desperate.

Bit of an uncontroversial question, I guess. The stereotype of the desperate man did take at least a little bit of inspiration from real life. What I'd be more interested to know if what we're observing is just a lack of inhibition, and that women are just more restrained about their feelings.

I don't know, but it seems men are more vocal and bitter about their desperation on the internet.

Men are.. As, you'll see more women on here complaining about guys not leaving them along than the opposite.. Women have the monopoly on the net simply because a lot of guys on it are horn dogs, or lonely boys who want company.. But, also some women let it get to their head, and become jerks because of it..

Both. In there own way. Men aren't shy about it. Women, on the other hand, "mask it" by posting memes on their snap that elude to wanting good sex or a man:

Calvine · Answer

I'd have to say women. Us men have a lower self esteem on average, so we're more comfortable with the idea that we'll die alone without ever having kids. Conversely, that prospect is NIGHTMARISH to most women, especially when they reach their 30s.

Barrabus_the_Free · Answer

Depends on what age we're talking.  Before 30, men.  After 30, women by far.

Funny how so many say men... but really how many women do you know who are single by choice vs men?

Anonymous · Answer

In my country men are desperate because women fall short in population as compared to men. They do have attitude of hard to reach out to. They are really difficult to understand and are gold diggers.
