+1 yno.. they have no more options than men...
what the problem is, is that in todays society, almost everyone is looking for a ken or barbie, but yet they themselves are looking quite overweight and dumpy... and seemingly proud of it.
then, most of the good looking, attractive people feel they are above average and are over confident or uppity, which causes them have an ugly personality...
the internet gives all of us so many options now, and as a kind of decent type of guy who has dated a LOT, I can honestly say that it is probably harder for a good woman to find a good and acceptable man, than it is for a guy to find a girl that he can love and fulfill his fantasies...
when i was dating, my only complaint was people who are looking for a "10", but feel whoever they meet should accept them as they are less than a 5, because they dont want to go through the efforts to keep themselves up to the 8,9 or 10 that they could potentially be...
and manners, if one doesn't have at least a minimum of manners, even a 10 is an embarrassment to us... you could be a friends with benefits but we wouldn't want to live with you or take you anywhere...
I am a long way from perfect myself, but I have no problem getting a girl to like me, and I can only believe its because I know I have faults and I am continually working on them and trying to be a better person... when one believes that "good enough" is really good enough, they are headed downhill... always, do your best to be a better version of yourself tomorrow, and dont worry about impressing someone else, but only try to impress yourself with how much you can change for the better, and soon you will be attracting many of those that can recognize "quality" in a person...

+1 yWomen in dating suffer from the same thing as people in investing. Too much investment options are pushed into your face. Therefore there is a fear of missing out. A fear that a better option might come along after you have made an investment. Thus investors may become anxious at the thought of missing better opportunities to make money. Just like many women in modern dating who can never truly attach themselves to a single partner. They might leave him as soon as they think they have a better option available.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yReal question: who wants less in life? Do you? People who make millions a year, still want to be richer than they are. There is no such thing as too many options only people who refuse to take them or make a path for themselves in life. No guy I know is simply just satisfied being at point A, let alone any woman. We are all reaching for more and trying to climb ladders to get to tops, and reach beyond those points as far as we think we can go. The dating world is not a one way street, it only works with all players on the board so if you want more, you learn to find a way to take or get more, but if you don't, then you sit back and complain. Historically women have never held the reigns on most things having to do with society---so now that you perceive the tides to be turned---is it only now that it's a problem?

Power is usually given by the masses. No one is forcing dudes to be thirsty 😂
I really cannot help it that more guys are willing to check for me than girls are willing to check for the dude beside me. I never created that problem and it is not something I will ever take accountability for because I am not out here coercing men to like me. That’s just you people! Why do you want women to acknowledge something that is not in their control?
Where is the solution in that? Are women supposed to throw themselves at every dick now just level the playing field? NO. Just get yourself some standards 😂 people will judge you for it like women are judged for it. It will be fine, at the end of the day it will be fair and y’all won’t have anything to complain about. - +1 y
You don't seem to understand how nature works. It produces a redundancy of men who then get whittled down to the "fittest", and women then choose to mate with a subset of those men.
If I raise my standards, no woman is even going to notice, because even a 330 pound has a full inbox.
Also, I was not complaining about you. It's not like I expect women to change. I was complaining about society and the pretense that women are victims and that men are all powerful abusers. It's no mystery that it seems that way to women, because powerful men are the only ones they notice. - +1 y
Lack of a dating/sex life doesn’t equal to those other things you listed. Whether you’re a man or woman, your ability to get laid is irrelevant.
And yes. I do find it funny. A lot of guys and girls tend to complain about these things but offer up NO solutions for themselves.
The solution is to find more productive things to do with your life instead of obsessing about sex or dating. Read a book or climb a tree. Something.

@MzAsh - Men have tons of options. The thing is women lose options as they age, men gain options as they age. I had much less options as an 18 year old vs now as a 32 year old. Now I joke around because every single date I go on, the girl always wants me. I don't think a girl has called it off on me ever in the past like 2 years after we go on an official date. So now I get to be picky as all hell and toss off any girl that doesn't fully meet my qualifications.

Very few men are actually pull off gaining more value as they age. What happens to most is they get fatter, or least those party years start showing in a beer gut. Their bodies start breaking down due to the years of manual labor. And their attitude towards women and society becomes bitter. The only men who can escape this are the pampered rich kids who’ve always had the money and resources handed their them. And celebrities like Clooney.

No decent woman wants anything to do with these kinda men who are pissing and meaning about feminism, liberalism, how they were rejected in their 20s, or how hard they had to work to make enough money so an attractive woman will give them the time of day. That’s called incel and mgtow mentality and it’s becoming the norm.
- +1 y
@MzAsh - Most men don't gain value, you are right. The ones everyone wants do though. I think of it like this, the best men are the top of the pyramid, pretty much all women are the middle of the pyramid, and last is all other men. I only know myself and at 32, physically attractive and athletic, financially stable, not divorced and no kids, I feel like I have my pick either on a casual level or for serious dating, I feel like anything I desire is available to me in terms of women. I am better looking than when I was younger, make more money, and a track record of not making bad choices ie divorces, jail, bankruptcy... literally everything is better for me now so yeah I am much more desirable now than when I was younger.
And yes, only decent women like men who think feminism and liberalism is garbage. My current girl I am dating is 10 years younger than me and is traditional as you can get, hates liberal agenda as much as I do and we joke about how I am going to keep her barefoot and pregnant in my kitchen if she sticks around much longer and she loves it. - +1 y
I’m glad you have figured things out for yourself. I have too. And when I mentioned feminism, I suppose it depends on how much you let it affect your life. I’m have my own criticisms about certain aspects of feminism but I’d never be with someone who spends their day bitching about it or anything really. Extremists on either end of the spectrum aren’t going to be pleasant partners.

If one sex would choose the other in human species then there would be considerable sex differences between men and women similar to peacocks feathers or lion's manes but thats not the case.
Its since been scientifically proven that overloading choices increases anxiety. Women having so much choices is more of a detriment than a benefit. - +1 y
@MzAsh - I wouldn't want to be with someone who didn't absolutely hate feminism. There is nothing good about it and it is morally wrong. It pushes women to throw away everything attractive about themselves and then leaves them left holding the bag when no decent men want them. The ideal attractive woman for the majority of men (especially desirable ones) is a young, debt free, virgin in good health. Thanks to feminism, women are taught not to settle down while nearly as young, mostly saddled with debt, have slept around a bunch, and many are overweight. Thus they have little to nothing left to offer leaving them only acceptable for undesirable men and men looking for casual sex. Many women agree with this and tbh its harder to find other attributes than women who hate feminism. Most women hate feminism.
- +1 y
@MzAsh yeah so? Only 38% of women are feminist. So yeah its easier to find non feminist women than feminist. Also, in places like NY and Cali im sure its like 70% are feminist. Where I live in a conservative state and area we only voted like 7% for Hillary so id bet there is far less than 38% feminist women here.
Sure many men aren't like me. They are old fat poor dudes. But usually women are more interested in the kind of man i am and that i can speak to. There is a reason why rich old men get hot young women. Rich men have a large selection and often go for the more youthful virginal ones available. See all of history. - +1 y

I see. Well, I live in state of SC. Came here from the Midwest because I was bored and trying to move on from losing my mom. My man of 12 years supported the idea and we moved together. I have family here so it made sense.
“The south” isn’t really my thing because I’m pretty liberal. I came here for the family I have here, the beach house, the warmer weather, more to do even though it’s mostly touristy things, and the chance to be a professional fire performer which I made happen (see profile pic).
This area isn’t his thing so when we’re ready we’ll prob head either to the east coast or just travel for a couple years.
We’re both pretty untraditional and liberal. I love the fact that he’s an egalitarian like myself. I don’t care what other people do, but I know there’s no way I’d be happy being put in the role of a trad wife. That’s just me. And he’s cool and even prefers that. If not, he knows I could have any man I wanted to marry me immediately. But he’s loyal and so am I. We’re not super rich but that’s ok. I’ve dated rich men. They are overrated. Only pickme girls are interested in men for their money and status. I’m more about a man’s attitude and behavior.

@JDavid25 Yes they can if they aim super super low. She likes liberal men, so the standards are be a beta and let her walk all over you, so obviously she has her picking if thats her only major requirement.
Hey I could have my picking of any girl to marry me... if by any I happened to only be attracted to druggie skank girls. Shit. - +1 y
@MzAsh - that is the basis for ALL liberal, egalitarian, feminist style relationships. Men give up the things that men universally prefer to accommodate the womans desires. That is never equal its a mans submission to a woman. That is beta asf and you are definitely walking all over him.
In my experience, nobody loves traditional men more than liberal women. It is literally a well known fetish that all these egalitarian housewives go nuts for traditional men to dominate them in all the traditional ways. Meanwhile hubby is at home doing the laundry. I am not saying you cheat or anything.
I just don't see how any decent man would ever choose an egalitarian relationship unless he was desperate because its pretty universally known that it blows in about 20 different ways. Desperate = beta willing to be walked over - +1 y
@MzAsh - I never said they wouldn't work for everyone, because they only work for beta men. And beta men are men who aren't desirable enough by the general population to have lots of options and thus they are desperate.
It's not possible for it to ever work with alpha men by definition basically. ie cars drive on roads, if a car is driving on an ocean I guarantee its not a car but a boat and you are mistaken - +1 y
@MzAsh - my point exactly. if he can't even get them... how can he get someone exceptional? Just the first thing that comes to my mind. All I know is an exceptional girl is my first choice, keeping a small harem is my second choice, being single and just occasionally hooking up with girls is my third choice and an egalitarian liberal type relationship is my last choice but also unacceptable. Most men mostly agree with this because men generally have very similar/the same motivations. So I really wonder about the kind of man who would accept such a thing. The only explanation is that he is a desperate beta. That explains it.

@MzAsh - yes better at obeying you than the rest. I get it. And it works for you guys. Congrats. But by all measurable means, he isn't the richest, the hottest, a leader of men to greatness, the most intelligent or some combination of things like that. So we will all just take your word he is the best. If he really was the best though, wouldn't he choose someone who didn't put him in 2nd place? Wouldn't he have too much self respect to be in an egalitarian relationship?
- +1 y
@MzAsh - and that is where nobody in the world will believe you. It would be like if I told you "Women prefer men with no penis" you would rightly be like "Ummm wtf no" there are certain things that are universally desired, and it sounds just as nuts that any man with a choice would choose such a thing. completely ridiculous.
Anonymous(30-35)+1 yWell I don't think having options should be bad. The problem is really the *disparity* in options.
Woman have pretty much throughout most of our history had the upper hand in the realm of sexuality and courting. And with modern technology that upper hand has become an overwhelming force. We've force that gap even wider and that's not good for social cohesion.
So again, I'd say the problem isn't having options, it's having a disparity in options. Whether people had few or many options, having the options be similar would be wholesome. But having it be so limited for some and so plentiful for others causes social fracturing in society.00 Reply4.4K opinions shared on Society & Politics topic. its no different to any othe period in time, just the methods of meeting up have changed slightly but if you think the internet is the biggest game changer ever i would point you to the invention of the bicycle which also lead a minor revolution in ways we would meet each other

Yes, women mate for social-economic status. That means the entire cohort of women target the top quartile of men. A small number of men get all the pu$$y.
This also means that in a bell curve distribution of female beauty a large number of average females are getting pumped and dumped by a top quartile guy. This leads to overinflated expectations of average looking females. These women think of they once got a top quartile guy to give them attention and bang them once, they deserve top quartile men all the time. - +1 y

Unlike the 50-60's where women were mostly stay at home wives, modern women graduate from college and have careers. That means they are no longer tethered to a man early on for security. A modern women can date and date and date constantly trying to move upwards in mate social-economic status.

Intersexual selection - the person chooses their partner.
Intrasexual selection- the prospective mates compete with each other for the chance to mate...
at least, that's if I've remembered the terms right... the intersexual selection is supposedly done by females while males tend to deal with intrasexual selection in humans apparently.

Men who are in their 30's who are good catches... they are dating 20 year old's. Why? Because they can, because their options are pretty much anyone their age and younger is available to them. Women tend to like a man a little older so as you age, your options decrease because men die or get married etc. But even a 45 year old man might date a 25 year old girl if he is hot enough and with it enough to get one. If he isn't, then you probably wouldn't find him quite a catch.

No, I mean they don't make them like they used to. In this hook up age, no one dates properly, there's no more chivalry. Men expect something but with no effort.
I don't like older guys because regardless of what you may say, I'm very youthful. The last guy I dated was 8 years younger.
Thanks for the insults though 👍 - +1 y
@rubyrose83 - "No, I mean they don't make them like they used to. In this hook up age, no one dates properly, there's no more chivalry. Men expect something but with no effort."
YESSSS EXACTLY MY POINT! There are men who put in effort, they are just not choosing to put it in with YOU, thats why your experience is that no men like that are around any more.
For example, I am 32, I am currently dating someone 22. My previous girl I was dating was 19. Now I am not saying you are a bad person but why in my right mind would I choose to date someone my age when I can get a girl that is 10 years younger than me?
The reason I can get girls young like that is because I am physically attractive and athletic, I am also financially stable and have no baggage (ie divorce, kids). So without knowing anything else about me, most women based on those factors would put me in the top tier of men to date. Except since I have access to and prefer women 18-22 to date, women in their 30s would be in my lowest tier of women to date.
Picture basically any man you ever met. He has a 19 year old standing before him and a 30 year old. Who is he going to pick? Obviously the 19 year old. no brainer. Everyone knows this. So what is left? well you have older men, ones who would find someone in their 30s a catch still (but it sounds like you don't like these men, ones who might actually date you), ones around your age that are not attractive enough to get younger women, and younger men. You also have access to men who are top level men to date who are around your age, but as you said they don't put in any effort. I personally am not into casual sex but if I wanted casual sex, I could easily get a girl my age without putting in any effort. The reason is a man in my position holds all the dating power in that scenario. For every 20 something year old girl I talk to, there are 5 30 something year old women trying to talk to me, so wtf would I put in any effort at all?

Same for women, most are undateable.
Opinion Owner+1 y@bamesjond0069 Don't care. Question is about women having options. We don't because men are garbo these days and lazy and self centered and sex driven. Pretty useless in general.

I agree with that. Most men are trash for sure.
Opinion Owner+1 y@bamesjond0069 But in fairness, you are right because most people in general are garbo these days.

Unfortunately I think it builds off each other. When I was younger I thought I was supposed to want "hos" and so I was that player for a long time. But over that time I was casual with girls I should have dated properly. But now thinking about it, I might have hurt those girls in a way that made them decide all men suck and to just be hos. But on the other hand, I started off with one girlfriend who did me wrong and thats what put me on the ho kick thinking all girls were hos in the first place. Ahhh its just a chicken and egg situation. Which comes first, men sucking or women sucking? All I can say is I think it will get worse before it gets better sadly.
Few dont.
