Hot woman have always had standards most men could not meet....but damned ugly young women have standards today that are nearly impossible for even handsome men to meet. Most 18-25 women list 6 feet and $100K salary as minimum requirements. Thats fine if that's what winds you clock but the pool of men 18-40 6 feet tall and making $100k a year is about 1% of the male population. Some of those are gay men, some are off the market....their choices are very limited. Toss in the spectre, real or imagined, that approaching a woman is hard for most men and can result in some ill shite happening today I wouldn't be a young man for anything...or a young woman for that. I suspect they will work it out by their mid 30s but thats a little late for most people to be starting a family.

No, at some point people can complain and make a stand. You're just going to sit there and get bent over until you're living in the dirt eating bugs with your mentality.
You're 'making a point' on something the other guy isn't even talking about

Literally how dare they!!!!!!
We could have Venezuala-level inflation and frickheads like that would just suggest anyone not living in a tent under a bridge "isn't living below their means" instead of pointing the finger to the people truly responsible.

I can believe it. That's just saying rent is so high in major cities that it will stretch a budget at that level.
They cherry pick the rental properties to include. You can find rental property for cheaper than what these articles state. The problem is everyone wants something really nice for appearances.
Everyone thinks they deserve something nice. That is not how it works unfortunately

It's not how much you make its how you spend. This is only offset by tragedy that everyone seems to think they are immune from.
If you have two people earning in a household even at national average you could live fine and even build up quite the pension/401k over the years if you are consistent.
Most people have no consistency, spend at will, drive something they don't need, eat out too much and consume alcohol/other.
Alcohol consumption gets a pass every single time
If you are 40 calculate just beer costs in your lifetime. Had you taken that cash and put it into a stock paying a 7.5% dividends your financial Outlook would be vastly different no matter how much money you've made. Simple facts.

jesus christ...bet you are fun to be around.
So you expect people to never have any vacations, never have a night out, never have drink?

im 41....i can easily calculate how much i spend on restaurants, beer, energy drinks, private school tuition for 3 kids, travel baseball and lessons for 2 kids, track lessons for a kid and guess what....i don't regret any of that shite because I make plenty. so your "simple facts" about outlook changing is bullshite

American dudes just need to move to Colombia. The women are hotter and don't have distorted expectations.

They'll be old ugly lonely miserable counts. The men will be independently wealthy and banging the young coeds.
Men are getting out of the dating game because they're tired of women's shite, and above is exhibit A. Women made this bed.
Orrrrrr, you could just not pay attention to the online dating world at all, focus on yourself, meet a nice girl who also isn't a raging count whore who concerns herself with height and income, and live happily ever after.

this is the biggest problem
social media and all the bullshite about beautiful at any size has fricked up reality for so many women. also so many women are fricking delusional about what the average guy makes.
so many women that are 5's think they are 10's. Look at the interview videos where they ask women. its insane.
these women have no self perception and always think they are they are settling. Many men like that too, dont want to lock down the good girl because they still are unsure.

All the guys that women want to settle down with after their hoe phase in their 20s are opting out and it’s hurting them financially. The only reason the article was written because it’s effecting women.
In a sensible culture trading cash or other valuable commodities for sex would be legal. Many men would never get married if they could rent sex legally. Sad statement but the reason its frowned upon is because women needed a constant meal ticket and protector. They are born with a meal ticket and protection is mostly done by the state today. Women simply do not need men for anything other than sex and the emotional aspect of a relationship that is steeped in human DNA. Men have it also but many do not have it so deeply rooted that they can't live without that emotional connection.
There has been a lot of research conducted that suggest that young men not getting laid leads to all manner of ill shite. A lot of that could be alleviated by legalizing prostitution...and it would allow women who wanted to do so earn money doing what they do now for dinner and drinks.

She sounds pretty empathetic and logical to me? I've read a couple of articles like this and it's usually written by an overly entitled liberal white woman that points to "toxic masculinity" being the cause.

Half these vapid chicks just want to spit out a puppy and tap some “professional’s” meager line of credit. I’d hate to see what some of these ladies would do if they were given access to ‘zinc smelter’ kind of wealth.

If I ever ended up single again, I wouldn't give American (and most Western) women a thought. While I concede there are undoubtedly exceptions, for the most part they have morphed into money grubbing, controlling harpies who will make you life utterly miserable.
Posted on 1/4/24 at 7:53 am to prplhze2000
I've come to the conclusion that most women don't offer much in a relationship besides being a cum dump. That's why I chose the Sugar Daddy lifestyle.

I'm a millenial and starting to see some of the after effects of this with about half of the girls I went to high school or college with. On one hand, women who met their husband before 2012 are generally happy with a family. The other half are single or are single moms with lots of baggage.

My wife is American but has immigrant parents (from Ecuador and Venuzuela). Just that makes all the difference. No delusional thinking on how economics work, she actually contributes to the household financially and domestically, disciplines our kids, and didn't gain 40+ pounds after we got married and had kids. A lot of the white American girls I dated before her weren't as good looking and were way more entitled.

Not anymore.
That 6 pack of tall boys is now $12 and the beam $30.

Trailers in places like French Settlement, LA rent for $1,300+/mo. Maybe it’s different elsewhere, but down here, there are few affordable places in between “really nice” and “you’re likely to get shot.” The rental market is so different than it was even 10-15 years ago.
