How 'Golden Penis Syndrome' is ruining dating for university women: Deficit of male students means men develop inflated egos and become 'Casanovas' who 'cheat' - despite a 'lack of social and sexual skills'

TL;DR: Chad is only 1% of college campus. This is unfair to women, men need to step up.

- Jon Birger explored so-called 'man deficit' in US colleges in book Date-onomics
- Claims shortage of college-educated heterosexual men creates 'hookup culture'
- Says men feel unduly in demand and fail to develop sex or conversational skills
- In the UK, university participation level for women is nearly 20% more than men

A shortage of male university students is causing men to develop so-called 'Golden Penis Syndrome' where they see themselves as a prize to be won by female suitors.

The term, coined by students at Sarah Lawrence College, New York, and popularised by American journalist Jon Birger, is applied to heterosexual men who have an inflated ego due to the amount of interest shown in them by their female peers.

Men believe this interest is the result of their innate desirability, leading to an augmented sense of self and a tendency to become 'accidental Casanovas' with bad habits like cheating, 'ghosting' and stringing women along in casual flings.

They might also have poor social and sexual skills because they do not need to better themselves in order to secure dates with their accomplished female peers.

But in reality, this heightened level of interest is largely down to a lack of viable alternatives for women wanting to settle down.

In the UK, 57 per cent of all higher education students are female. The proportion is higher in the US, where women account for 59.5 per cent of all college students.

This imbalance continues into the workplace, where there are more women with college or university degrees than men.

Relationship therapist Charisse Cooke told FEMAIL: 'Golden Penis Syndrome speaks of the delusional belief that you are unusually and uniquely gifted as a man, sexually or otherwise, and are above established norms of good manners, respect and dating etiquette.

'It can result in overly-grandiose behaviour and self-reverence and an inflated sense of power over the opposite sex. Women can be baffled by these men, but intrigued and lured in due to the man's self-belief and seeming promise.

'However, the women are left disappointed and furious when discarded after cursory or non-existent date experiences and underwhelming sexual performances.

'Often the only single member of the group, after a period of time their reputation becomes a mixture of Peter Pan to pitied and accidental Casanova.'

Birger, an award-winning journalist, toured US colleges for his book Date-onomics, discovering that universities with a female-heavy population bred men who were 'truly believed they had the golden penis'.

The term was first coined at Sarah Lawrence College where only a quarter of the student population is male.

But the problem is present in the UK, too.

'Golden Penis Syndrome definitely exists in the UK because I've interviewed plenty of UK women who shared horror stories of average guys who treat them like garbage simply because the men had options,' explained Jon, a former Fortune Magazine writer turned dating expert who is the author of the new book MAKE YOUR MOVE.

'We're seeing generation of young men who think they're Adam Driver or Michael B. Jordan. Of course, it's not about them. It's the ratio.'

In his book, Birger makes the case that 'hookup culture' among students 'trickles down into post-college dating' and that 'lopsided ratios have been a driving force behind both the rise of the hookup culture and the declining marriage rates among the university educated.

'Of course, university sex ratios wouldn't matter so much if we were all more open-minded about whom we date and eventually marry (which I think we should be).

'But at the same time university sex ratios have been skewing female, there's been a simultaneous increase in what academics call 'assortative mating'. That's a fancy way of saying that college grads only want to date and marry other grads.

'There's been a ton of scholarly research on how sex ratios affect culture, and what it shows is that the dating culture tends to be more monogamous when men are in oversupply.

'But when men are in undersupply, the dating culture becomes less monogamous — men are more likely to treat women as sex objects and treat relationships as disposable.'

He says the shift in attitude may be subconscious for men, adding it's 'human nature' to get carried away after receiving excessive attention.

'If a guy is getting a lot of attention from women, he's going to think he's deserving of all that attention. It's human nature. When women get a lot of attention from men, some women think they're special too.'

He also believes that this phenomenon is prevalent in workplaces with a higher female to male ratio.

'Because of the way the math works, Golden Penis Syndrome probably affects men in their 30s and 40s more than those in their 20s. At least the heterosexual ones. Imagine you have a dating pool that starts out with 40 women and 30 men, which is a 4:3 ratio.

'Once half of the women get married — once 20 of the women get married to 20 of the men — the dating pool among the remaining singles becomes 20 women and 10 men — a 2:1 ratio. This is why we all know so many fabulous women in their 30s and 40s who cannot seem to find a decent guy.'

He says that older women seeking a husband should avoid men who have never married into their late 30s and 40s who have high-paid - even dubbing some of them 'unmarriageable'.

'I don’t assume everyone wants to get married or should get married', he said. 'But if I were a heterosexual woman who was looking to get married, I would be wary of guys who have remained never-married into their late thirties and 40s.

'Especially the better looking ones with good jobs. These men are having too much fun playing the field. And the longer they stay single, the less interested they are in getting married or settling down with one woman. I’d go so far to call a lot of them unmarriageable.

'It’s one reason why, in Make Your Move, I encourage 30-something women to consider dipping down age-wise. It may sound counter-intuitive, but I actually think the younger guys are more commitment-minded than a lot of the older ones. '

Jon said that while men can develop 'Golden Penis Syndrome', it can be something outgrown in later life.

He also shared his advice to young students who could be wary of dating men with an over-inflated ego.

'One of the solutions to the college gender gap that I write about in MAKE YOUR MOVE is encouraging women to be assertive and to make the first move with the men of their choice. Fact is, men like women who like them. Also, a man is much less likely to take advantage of a woman who puts herself out there and says "Hey, I really like you, I feel really comfortable around you, so I was wondering if you'd go out on a date with me on Friday?"

'When it comes to dating, the more you put yourself out there, the more you'll get back. '

The Man with the Golden Penis

the golden bull has risen

Funny how women are always the victim here, and how men always need to "step up" despite all these problems being created by gynocentric institutions and feminist policies.

know your worth kings


and these sloppy hoes aint it

Golden penis checking in

A gift and a curse..

just lol if you’re not Platinum

in after the case study the golden penor was built upon

they ran men out of academia and now its somehow our fault

fukking clown world

"well, well, well.....how the turntables........"

Okay so many other thoughts and comments. Also"

- I love Goooooooooooooooold

and

I have $20 that says this is a paid advertisement by the Universities to drive male enrollment much like those articles about OF content creators making millions.

They do the same thing in every business and institution they run men out of. Just look at entertainment these days.

Men can only step up once they've been motivated by pussy. But if they never get it to begin with well then...

So in other words women need to step up and start banging a wider variety of dudes?

been living this reality before it was a study or an "ailment"

its called being a cute guy

bishes cant get enough

Yes!

Funny thing is it's usually the other way around. Men who get a lot of attention tend to be kinda 50/50 when it comes to ego. Some are really full of themselves, but others can be surprisingly humble.

When it comes to women who get a lot of attention however, I haven't met a single one who wasn't a total headcase.

author is a cuck

author:

Not reading but I am assuming whatever this is about, its the man's fault.

****ing LOL

its basic economics


HVM are far more scarce then fkable hoes
