Never take it personal, even when it is.

Why are you giving advice when you are married? Every marriagecuck thinks he is with a unicorn until the divorce happens. The older guys who can maintain relationships without marriages are worth listening to.

Agree with you OP. Guys who say all girls are sloots are no different than girls who say all guys are douchebags. There are always classy people within both sexes, just not a lot. It all comes down to how you meet people and how you carry yourself.
I personally have had a lot of luck with finding classy, self-respecting women.

Any girl that is fixated on social media is an absolute nope.jpg for me. Unless I'm just looking for a hookup of course.

Agreed.

And maybe those numbers are lower on both sides due to social media and whatever, but they're still out there.

I died, lol.

So many of my ******* friends were exactly like this. They thought they had life all figured out and that they found someone special until their marriage went south of the border. Those dudes were major wrecsk and didn't know how to start over. It's like trying to teach a 80 year to use technology. It's a fish out of water.

Im 36 and disagree with most of the original post but I rarely get serious with women. Being a 36 year old banging college chicks off dating apps lets just say prior to now you had to be a king/sultan type figure or very very good looking to do this. Now there is a kernel of truth in your post. A girl you met at church or a supermarket is going to be less of a butt slut than an app girl or bar girl but its still going to take your batman detective skills to determine if shes quality. The truth is you should be using every avenue at your disposal to meet women. Its not a doom and gloom dating environment its whatever you put the work in to make it.

I'm 37 years old, and I married my wife in 2002. So for those of you who were still in elementary school during that time, let me explain what it was like to you: We met women in person. We had to be proficient with actually speaking to them and getting their attention through our words, actions, and actual appearance (not a filtered, angled photo on a dating site under perfect lighting).

We went out on a date, where we had to again make an impression. The other side of that coin is that so did she.

Why should you care? I just wanted to comment on this little dance that millennials often do where they meet on these dirty little dating/sex sites trying to get laid. Half the time you're just talking to a perverted dude, and that's a guarantee. You're sending a picture of your cock to a hairy dude whose pretending to be a girl. How does that make you feel?

Think about this: If you were a woman, would you want to be with/date somebody who texts out pictures of his dick? Likewise, why would you associate with a female so classless as to send nude pictures, whether through text or whatever messenger? I know it goes without saying, but if she'd send them to you online, she's sent them to a hundred dudes before, and no telling how many she's been with.

Why not show some class for yourself and expect some back. Be the kind of person who expects more from yourself and of your potential mate.

And don't tell me that all women are "sloots" or some other dumb coping mechanism you guys have come up with to explain your own inabilities to get with a proper woman. I promise you they exist and if you want one, you have to be the kind of person that she would want first. And a person skanking around on plenty of fish isn't that guy.

Cliffs-
-If she'll send nude photos to you, she;'s sent them to everybody else too
-Have some class if you expect to find a classy woman
-Don't do it online like a *******: Go out in the world and meet people.
-Ladies there's a message in here for you, too.

A woman isnt going to tradionallly date you today because you are telling her to do it. Your gonna end up taking her out to eat your old man 5 star dinner and shes gonna leave you with a pec on the cheek and then netflix and sukc dikc the other 6 days of the week.

Older people, with their sky high divorce rates, telling us how bad dating is and how slooty girls are today...

'Sloots gonna sloot' has been a theme in literature across all cultures for literally thousands of years. Guys of your generation have been divorced, cheated on, etc. Besides, a guy that married at 22 and is only 37 doesn't sound particularly impressive.
