Fox link on why so many men are single.

It’s easier for men to date thanks to technological conveniences, yet this technology has created a counterintuitive situation leading them to have a fickle attitude toward relationships, constantly searching for the next thing instead of committing to one person.



Uh. Nope. Those younger women from watching too much woke progfilth tv has made them undatable.

That’s why these young guys don’t date. Because it’s harder to find a good one.

With the abundance of choices on dating apps, young men are finding it difficult to build deeper connections with a single person due to that sense of constant availability. When a minor red flag appears in a relationship that is otherwise going smoothly, why stick around and work it out when thousands of other choices are right at your fingertips? Young men are making that calculation every day on dating apps and are siding with the latter. How can you blame them with the constant programming coming from social media?

With social media today, men can scroll through their feeds and popular pages to view more beautiful women in one sitting than most men would see in their lifetime a hundred years ago.

Clearly written by someone who isn't in the pool of male AFCs

It doesn’t say they don’t date. The article is pretty spot on with the point that choices are abundant so why settle. It’s similar for women as well

As Seinfeld said about watching TV.
Women want to know what’s on, men want to know what else is on.

Did you read the title and full article?

The choices are so abundant, but there are still less good choices.

Maybe some men, but even the fat pigs are swiping left 90% of the time. Dating apps are a woman's playground and more power to them but it's a dead-end 99% of the time if you are not just playing around.

Problem with dating apps is it the digital form cannot encompass your personality or general behavior and reduces everything to taking nice pictures and algorithmic checklists.

Exactly.

It's gone from meme to legit cultural ideology.

I think women use dating apps just to make themselves feel good.

Absolutely, they'll just use it for a confidence boost which is pretty sad. I think and hope with AI advances that digital dating will die off (due to the easy formation of realistic pictures). I think digital dating has been only good in the fact that you can have lots of choices but I think it's been a disaster in helping people have deeper/satisfying relationships with people who fit you. The entire algorithm assumes you are the only one who knows whats good for you. It's such a vain and shallow process that I'm not sure it's possible for most people. You have to be very realistic to have any success otherwise you get stuck in a Neverending loop of dating nice pictures that turn out to be bad matches.


You're literally people shopping.

According to a new Pew Research study, 63% percent of men aged 18 to 29 report being single. That means the number of single young men is nearly twice that of single young women, indicating a large breakdown in the social, romantic and sexual lives of American men. The big question is: Why?


If there are about as many males as females, this means:
1. Women are dating older men
2. Men are “dating” multiple women
3. Women are dating each other

Dating sites make women thing their options are endless. They think getting 80+ messages a day means they're popular, but what they don't see is the 80+ messages are from guys sending 80+ messages each, and where the girls want to multiply that one relationship by 5, 10, 50 years, most of the guys are good for about a month.

Like Barney Stinson said, "Now that I've seen everything there is to see, I don't know... I kinda wanna see those same parts, just... on other girls. Other girls and you, if you're into that, but the other girls have to be there too. That's the important part."

It's called a harem and it's very popular with the top 5-10% of men on dating apps.

They basically suck up the top 50-75% of women for dating and then another slice of the lower tiers for casual flings.

It makes women on these apps demand a 5-10% guy, which means non top-5-10% males get no opportunities (except maybe providing free meals for women who would never consider him) and the top 5-10% date multiple women

Agreed…

An 8+ guy might bang a 5-7, but he’s never going to be exclusive with them.

College sex ratios also really drive this home.

As soon as kids get some freedom at the age of sexual exploration, women outnumber men 3:2, which means men gain value and women learn that they have to share men and men don't have to commit to get sex.

So women get taught this during possibly the 4 most crucial years of sexual-personal development, and it's imbedded when they get jobs

For me it is all about their frame. If she has an outstanding frame with an average face, she is in my harem.

People on a dating site are huge flags, both ways. Not to say there are certain situations where you can find a gem, but it’s going to be like digging up a mountain to find it…

Dating in my 20s required some effort. As a divorced guy in my 40s it's like shooting fish in a barrel.

It's not all fun and games. You can only swipe on so many mid 30s single moms that have "my kids are my world" in every. single. profile. Their personalities are just as shallow. Honestly, it's more trouble than it's worth.
