Considering 50% of people are obese, then add in incels, soyboys e.t.c this isn't really all that surprising.

The only drawbacks I would say is that they will not invest as long as other person in society since there is no need to kill yourself at work for 30-40+ years if you can retire earlier. And even that is not true because you can still withdraw a bit but keep teaching in your field, doing research that are time consuming but that you would not have done for productivity reasons.

tl;dr : no hook-up/no family => lot of times that you need to invest to have a fullfilling life => hard working men in different fields => progress

at least that is how I understand the logic.
You're talking about men who chose not to pursue women.

Not men who wanted women and just couldn't attain it. Those men dont have a reason to do s*it

There's a lot of non beta males that don't get women. The strongest guy i know is like 5'4 and benches 375 pounds and has never had a GF. All because he is short and super nice.

He's a genetic dead end to most women. Nature doesn't give 2 chits about your feelings. Some people aren't meant to procreate.

Well I would not have mind having a women in my life, still I kinda do a lot, at least as much if not more than more of my friends with family or wife.

The only thing that I would say is that FA/TFL or whatever you want to call it is bad for consumption cause you naturally tend to live a minimalist life style so even if you earn your life well, you are not likely to consume a lot, only invest money on solid assets to retire or semi retire earlier in your life and enjoy activities like you love to do.

Life is not Family/****ing sloots or LDAR, ofc it can be frustating sometimes to be FA/TFL but there are other things that can make you happy.

Again, that is just my perspective on the matter but I can't be the only one so there must be other guys who are productive overall for society.

So a study tells you that you can have it all if you are a 20%er and your reaction is to LDAR? How does this not motivate you to self improve?

The title of this thread says time to LDAR. Thats the geniune belief of many of our FA misc brothers. Everyone knows the 80/20 rule is real - solution is not to be part of the 80.

These fukkin idiots want to BELIEVE its all about looks because that gives them the EXCUSE to complain and not put themselves out of the comfort zone. It gives them a way to throw the blame onto someone else instead of themselves.


Yes women will judge you on looks on ****ING TINDER and OCUPID what else are they going to judge you on ???? Not to mention that women on tinder are usually low quality women looking for quick sex so yes they will want the hottest guy.

However women in real life are different ...in real life women will judge you on your personality, quirkiness, social status, social skills, money/smarts, possessions, and yes looks.

So if you don't have looks and you have some of the other stuff i mentioned above you will get women as long as you put yourself out there (LEAVE THE HOUSE) and actually start conversations with women.

If these ****s would actually leave their basement and look around they will see plenty of average and below average looking guys with women.

Polygyny, one husband taking multiple wives or concubines, was always a historical norm worldwide. Men were often killed by animals they intended to eat, killed by other men trying to take their food, or killed by other men trying to take their women, creating a surplus of fertile women. In a society where choosing an inferior man literally meant death by starvation, it was absolutely essential for women to partner with a successful male. The Judaeo-Christian tradition explicitly acknowledges this practice. Even when monogamy was adopted in ancient Greece/Rome, this tradition carried over as it was still typical for high-status men to maintain a steady supply of female slaves.

This is the environment the male and females brains evolved in. Studies have shown that women, given the choice, prefer sharing a high-status man to having low-status men to themselves. However, as civilization gradually prevented the natural killing off of inferior men, it became a social necessity for women to be made available to them. In short, monogamy is a form of affirmative action to prevent beta riots by keeping alphas from hoarding sloots.

Polygyny thrives in societies of high inequality, where women gather around the high-status males because low-status males can barely survive. Interestingly, as technology concentrates wealth in the hands of fewer and fewer workers, particularly the disproportionately male tech sector, and discontent rises among the high-status alpha achievers due to the burden of providing welfare and other benefits to the repulsive and misshapen families of low-status beta moochers who, left to their own devices, could barely provide an acceptable lifestyle to one woman, it is clear that our tradition of monogamy will come to an end in the foreseeable future.

I've already made up a side room for my first concubine. The wife will appreciate the help in the kitchen, and sometimes her jaw gets tired.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

Obviously guys not in the 20% can date, but what the article does is provide an accurate explanation of why it's getting harder and harder for men. A lot more guys are not finding any success out there and this is why. Women are way too picky.

This is a real phenomenon, and to dismiss it is to ignore reality

No one uses tinder in 2019 bro. Also, it's your own damn fault if you can't match with women. I date way outside of my league all of the time because i actually have a decent personality. Looks help, but if you can make a girl laugh shes gonna be alot more attracted to you whether you're ugly or not.

Good luck approaching women irl when they have orbiters and it's frowned upon to approach them in work settings.

The problem is that women have high standards and are rejecting or ghosting on men that do approach them. YOU have to have an incredible personality or looks to even have a chance. It's just the way it is.

Look, this just isnt reality. Read the fuking article. Women are hardwired to want the best genes. Personality does not matter if she is not attracted to you.

The guys who are fa tend to be in the bottom 20% of looks. At that point, women can always do better than you. That's just reality. Just like nobody willingly settles for fat women, women do not willingly settle for bottom tier men. And that includes looks.


I've shared my story many times. 5'3, dark as night, ugly face. Nothing I do makes a difference in my results because I'm fundamentally unattractive.

Reality is a bitch, but do you just accept statistics and lie down or try like a man. Life isnt fair, not just dating, think about wealth. Some people have a better starting point than others. Doesnt mean you dont try because you are disadvantaged, it means you suck it up and try harder and play the cards you are dealt.

I've been seeing this exact same phuckin study trotted out since I started browsing in 2014, and people keep acting like it's something new and exciting. Chit is literally a misc meme at this point.

Lemme guess - next thread is going to be the Tinder messages from the brah with the chopped Nazi tattoo.

Yea but it depends, sometimes there's nothing you can do. I'm almost 28 and I've tried. My efforts don't make a difference.
