Every other modus operandi has been proven to suck balls completely. Don't simp, don't betabuxx, don't be a cuck. It's as simple as that.
Being sexless also sucks balls completely. And prostitution isn't legal yet

This seems like the easiest step to at least thrown men a bone. But I feel like America will never allow and it'll become labeled and incel idea instead of facing the reality.

I think society will just tell men to 'git good'

In 10 years we will either have socially acceptable families of 1 man and multiple women, OR, which is what I believe will happen, women will realize soon enough that it better to be with someone mediocre/good rather than alone waiting for that 1 in a 1000 chance they find their “soulmate”

Im enjoying the show right now not gonna lie lol.
nah.. what's gonna happen is when these women start to marry from like 18 to 35 right now.. decent value men won't marry them

so they'll be left over. there will be a huge portion of women, convinced from society as you say, that keep getting pumped and dumped and questioning their value... while secretly wanting a relationship and not getting it

hence... massive depression coming for women. akin to the already increasing depression and suicide rates

The girl I'm dating now commented on this last night, and told me all about her friends who jump from guy to guy. But the main problem is THEM, not the males. Their expectations and the way they approach things is geared towards creating drama and emotion, which far less men are willing to put up with now.

There's a ton of stupidity out there among women in terms of the way they approach relationships, and then they wonder why they can't land a high value male. News flash - you're not worth the drama or effort. And if you're overweight, expect even less options at least from any man with a small amount of self-respect.

Men who are 0-7 in terms of looks chase women. With those being 0-3 really chasing orcs on their online video games. The ones 4-6 (majority of men on bell curve) only succeed if they are also a beta provider. Men 6-7 have some off and on success


Only when you’re 7+ In looks do women chase you. These are the guys who win in online dating (speaking from experience as one). When you get hundreds of matches every couple of days, can schedule a date with a HBB every day of the week, then your capacity to tolerate bull**** from women drops to zero.

The other side of this is guys who think they deserve an 8 when they are actually a 5. Unrealistic expectations that girls they date are going to look like IG models when they are overweight and can't carry a conversation with a boring life.

I think the majority of the problems in America are due to the wedge being driven between the sexes. The economy is fueled by sex at the end of the day which explains why so many young men have failure to launch. Before social media these guys stood a chance to have a mate but now even the low tier woman expect the top 5% guys and since the girls have the government and careers they are willing to hold out... Until sometime in the 30's when they've been slaving in the work force for 5 years and realize they have at min. 35 more years of it before they can retire, if they can at all. That's when all the "where are all the good guys" (aka simps) at?! But when men get to their 30's and have been through the wringer or ignored by women they are either MGTOW or womanizers.

this isnt reality. Men are blowing up even fat and ugly chicks who are beneath them in looks. even 2/10s have a surplus of options

What you're describing is what the women are doing. All women trying to date the small pool of elite men, leaving low tier men with nothing

And your situation simply reflects on your lack of resolve to do anything about it aside from using Tinder to find a long term partner.

Grow a pair.
Its not tinder, its all online dating apps and feminism. These factors have combined such that women are all chasing the top 20% of men and ignoring the rest

Keep looking for your future wife on Tinder, seems to be working for you.
It doesn't matter where you look, these women will ignore you because they're only looking for the elite men whether its dating or sex.

Lots of risk factors are real, doesn't mean you have to take them as gospel. Do you ever just go out to bars and stuff, and try to make friends? You're in a new state, have you tried to join any social clubs?

Its reality, the outlook is called reality. And the article explains why in great detail but you continue to fiend ignorance

It's got to be pretty difficult to show additional worth via tinder. Everything seems to be distilled to height + picture of face and physique.

Yea I been doing that, but that's for friends not dating. I've met a few girls already who are like 3s or 4s and we've talked about dating. Even those women are getting blown up online

1. I ditched her because I left the entire state to buy a house.

2. I also was no longer physically attracted to her. I didn't say she needed to be a super model, but I do need to be physically attracted.

3. She also was ready to move on which she told me.

So shut the fuk up about things unless you know the facts

I wish I was making that last part up but it's true, he made a thread about it. >_<
This is all false, again. Stop making chit up.

I'm not even on Tinder. Its bumble..and in the past 2 weeks I took my height off my profile and guess what? No matches.

from the article:

This current situation can be summarized along four parameters:

1. Increasing female achievement.
2. Growing variability in male status and competence.
3. An evolutionary desire among females to marry up.
4. The globalization of the sexual marketplace and resultant collapse of local status hierarchies.


these 2 are key.

think about it, women are only happy wen they date up

the more they achieve, the smaller the pool of men whom they deem superior to themselves - theyre literally setting themselves up for love life failure.

and the innate female solipsism will blame men "where are all the good men?"
....Atlas.....
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy." - George Orwell, 1984
