I’ve heard from others around my age that a lot of people treat those adult kickball leagues and pickle ball as dating pools to meet people. Could be a good alternative for someone not finding success on dating apps. Less likely to run into the morbidly obese at those kinds of activities as well

I work a blue collar job. A respectable one, not some night shift warehouse jockey doing donuts on the forklift. That’s all you need to know.

No it doesn’t.
Men still bring more to the table than before women went to work. It’s just women don’t date down.
I would date a woman who makes less than me. Hell I’d be with one that had just a part time job and no job if we had kids.
There is no woman out there saying that about men.

Young men, there’s not much “man” about them. Skinny, tight jeans, walking around with cell phones, and/or gaming. No useful skills outside of a keyboard.
Such a lazy response. I guess this is a little true for guys under 20 or if your only interaction with the world are boomer memes on Facebook.
Most of my friends work 40+ hours a week in white collar and blue collar fields and still have problems finding quality women. People need to quit gaslighting men into thinking they are the problem and hold their daughters accountable for something once in their lives. Once they start doing that, we might actually get somewhere.

I agree that college educated women will not date non college educated men.
What you're seeing (and going to continue to see) is a declining pool of women who are married and even fewer who have children, both choice and forced.
I have seen this firsthand where women swing for the fences in terms of who they want in terms of a partner only to realize there's 3 or 4 other women for every one man they aim for.
Ultimately this is freeing the population glut as births continue to decline.
This reads like an El Gaucho post but I think you're actually serious.
"Population glut" - Do you really think that the population will decline and you'll finally get a good parking spot at Tractor Supply Co. and it'll all be great? This is like believing in the Tooth Fairy. The way our society is structured, if white people take a 5 minute break from making babies, whole neighborhoods end up filled with Sikhs and Guatemalans and shite.

It baffles me that so many young men refuse to want to go to college. I understand getting a decent degree is hard work, but goodness it provides you the gateway to a decent career and multiple dating options.
There are no scholarships for being a straight white man.

I'm glad I'm getting kind of old and have been married for a long time. If something ever happened to my wife or marriage I don't think I'd ever pursue dating again.

Porn addiction is a symptom of this and also a major player here, many men are socially inept when approaching women due to how porn changes your perception of women
Also, how much money OnlyFans models are making is another symptom

I know for me I haven't had sex in just over 3 years and have no prospects on the horizon for ending that
I get it sucks, but there's literally nothing that can be done about this. Sex requires two willing participants.
One thing I have found out the older I get: if you want to have sex, you can find someone willing. It might not be who you want but there is someone out there. If you are holding out for marriage that is a whole other thing in general.
The biggest problems I see about young men is that most "good" young men are afraid of the repercussions that are possibly involved in getting some strange. We are in days of doxxing, false accusations and the Metoo movement. Men are being accused of rape 20 years after the fact and after women decide later that they think that it was rape even though they didn't believe it until that point. We have beaten men into this mindset.
I don't know what society does at this point to rewind things other than rolling back to some true statute of limitations again that are reasonable and to actually punish false accusations. Also need to stop destroying men's lives over allegations before any type of criminal trial by keeping records sealed until criminal is dealt with.

Heck just being on some of the dating apps makes me not even want to bother. It's all bitter women, women who are divorced and/or have kids and women who look more like men than other women.
I feel like I'd have to badly settle if I want to be in a relationship and I'm not ready or willing to do that. Maybe it's wrong to think that way, maybe I'm not being mature, but that's how my brain thinks.
Get off dating apps and never return. Dating apps are designed to demoralize men while women look for a fantasy they'll never find.
Dating apps are also one of the worst things to ever happen to American relationships. They are as dehumanizing as anything can get as they break you down into pieces and rank you like you might rank a new refrigerator or car.
Again, delete the Dating apps and spend more time out doing things, stay out doing things.

I’ll give it to you there. Social media has ruined young women. And many think they deserve to the showered and taken care of with nothing in return. I’m middle aged and still of the opinion both genders should bring something different to the table. Men are the stronger sex and looked to as provider, and women take care of their home and children, and her husband. And, he, in turn, takes care of his family. If the woman works full-time, then obviously some duties are split. But can’t say those things out loud today. Maybe I’m still wrong, and will just be glad I’m older and not in the game.

Interesting what happens when a generation of boys have access to free, unrestricted porn before puberty even occurs. It's unnatural and harmful even if it does sound like I'm a sky screaming boomer.
Amen. Porn has destroyed men and social media has destroyed women. You’re left with narcissistic arrested development.
You can break the false facade of electronic evils by going outdoors and turning off the soul sucking screens but that requires effort and an acceptance of entropy that we seem to lack even the menial mental capacity for in today’s annoying and aggressive age of malfeasance and mediocrity.

I only came to respond and say that young women have all but lost any sense of self worth through traditional values and saving oneself for a long lasting relationship.
Young men are also easily tested.
The moral compass in our country is lost.

Wouldn't you rather be paid on your value and not some arbitrary number based on seniority?

From what Ive seen most of the young women today are vapid whores. Most of the men are impotent weaklings. The whorish women would rather be pin cushions for the small pool of men that arent total pussies than even spend a second with these pathetic excuses for "men". Then when some of the whores come to their senses and realize they arent exactly hot stuff and better get more reasonable if they want a family, the non pussies and the weaklings alike want nothing to do with them. You know, because they're huge whores.

Theres an epidemic of risk averseness thats been enforced by the new societal hierarchy. I'll never understand whats attractive about that to males. Men are risk takers, its in the DNA.
