The dad is a doctor and fricked one of the nurses and knocked her up and now the family is divorcing
A tale as old as time. Doctors by and large get divorced 3+ times and have to work well after they should to pay for it all. And it's always with a new nurse.

A big problem with dating today is average men get lots of negative feedback to tell them where they stand in the market, but average women don’t.
Average/Ugly women can get laid in an instant.

My wife had an acquaintance, not really a friend more of a friend of a friend, that was a tall, pretty, well endowed blonde girl.
She married a doctor...she was his 6th wife.
Dude was renting a house (he's also like 6 inches shorter than her)
I believe they moved to the east coast and started some clinic somewhere.

I believe it. Had an in law who was a mortgage lender. About twice a year he'd go on about how doctors tend to be the most broke rich person career there is.

Maybe if 99.99% of the men didn’t expect us to look like the 10% of hot girls this wouldn’t be a problem
Despite all the downvotes this is true. Just like anything else, there are problems on both sides, but people complaining saying "why are all women like....". I am curious as to where they are looking. How many of these men are only using apps to find a woman? And are they all sending dick pics to them expecting them to give a positive response?

Approach a LOT of women so you can get numb to the pain of rejection and learn what works. The ones who will say yes will surprise you. What I find is that most guys have very poor actual ability to gauge a woman’s potential interest in them. Guys who lack self confidence only approach when they see a “sure thing”, but their evaluation of a “sure thing” is still wrong half of the time. Doing this, they actually miss TONS of women who are potentially interested that they never even attempt to approach. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take, and even the most man whore bros actually have a pretty high rejection rate. They just take A LOT more chances, and come across more confident because they don’t fear rejection.
This! Just talk to them naturally in the settings you mention. Don't view each woman as a possible date or mate. Just view them as a friend just like you would a guy you meet. Don't hit on them or ask them out the very first time you see them.
Get off the apps. Don't expect you get the best quality of women on apps or in bars. Workout and briefly talk to the girl in the workout class. Go to a class with women in it. Join a running club, cosplay club, group that meets about something you're interested in. Join a church. Just talk to people. You're totally not finding the normal people because they aren't spending all their time looking for love in all the wrong places (apps, bars).
I feel like TD needs a how to act normal class. Instead of blaming the opposite sex, learn. I promise that all you complainers wouldn't have been attractive 30 years ago either. Women can smell desperate a mile away!

Part of the problem is that it has become less and less socially acceptable to cold approach people in situations outside of bars snd apps. Churches really aren’t social anymore for young adults, and it’s considered bad to approach women at work or the gym. Guys have to find loopholes or ignore the rules entirely.

If you're only goal is getting laid, no wonder you aren't finding a real partner. That part happens later.

This really doesn't work especially when you have fricked like 10 women in the same gym. You have to go find another gym.

Thats a problem I am SO glad I don't have to deal with
Some women are flattered when someone respectfully approaches them. Others are ready to get the mace out at "Hello". Not saying they are wrong to think that either, its just how it is.

With the advent of Tinder, normal, average guys are even at a disadvantage.

I don't know if this is true or not.
With some women absolutely. But a lot of guys in my friend group did well for themselves with average looks as long as they had a good personality.
No one wants to think they have 0 game, or are actively dull, but a lot of you are

I think you're wrong about both of these things. You don't "approach women". You just talk to them a little at a time. For example, woman has a water bottle/workout bag, etc that's noticeable, cute, looks functional...say, Hey, I was thinking about trying one of those. Do you like it? Listen to her answer and go on your merry way. Go to the gym same time next week. Maybe see her again. Find some other small thing to say. You don't go in with, "You've got gorgeous eyes" or stupid shite like that. So transparent.
I promise you that churches have very active singles groups. You just go to the activities and talk to people. You talk to them a bunch of times before you say, "hey, let's grab a bite after the service on Sunday." Go to a Baptist or non-denominational mega church. They have lots of these groups. They have monthly socials, activities, etc.

it is still EXTREMELY easy to find a good woman
I was single 15 years ago, tried the online approach and hated it. found my good woman the old fashioned way. It wasn't easy then. I've been observing since then and from hearing from single friends / family, things have gotten even harder. If you can't see that, you are out of touch and there's no other explanation for you making inaccurate, dismissive statements like above. They don't help anyone.
No-adays many people are just waiting for that "perfect" person to come along and have set their bar high. We know that already there are more people living alone than ever before, less women are having kids by a certain age, etc., with the trends unending. There is nothing easy about this.

I've always found that if a woman is interested she'll let you know she's interested..
I've always been a fan of the "wink" when she makes eye contact. If she smiles, you've won.. Just go talk to her.
If she doesn't smile, frick her less better looking friend..

These Boomers still think it's 1985. There's a lot of cope in this thread because they know they've raised the least marriage quality generation and are pointing the finger at their sons.

Very easy to find a good woman
My cousins younger than me had no trouble either.
If you cant find a good woman you need to take a look at yourself or your standards. Same thing I would tell a woman who says they can’t find a good man
