My buddy is 5'1", balding and works part time at TMobile and he pulls 8's and 9's every weekend. Just be confidant.

Doing some back of the napkin calculations this for example is a <1% man using very "basic" criteria...

- 5'10
- college degree (37% of men)
- $70k income (probably top 30% income)
- not obese (about 45% of men are)
- not married (50% are married)
- no drug/alcohol addictions/disabilities/severe mental problems
- goes to the gym 1 time per week
- owns a house/car
- bathes regularly/wears clean clothes/brushes teeth

That very basic list probably represents 0.5% or less of men. If you throw in a average to slightly below average face you're probably talking 0.25%.

1 in 400 men.

Yet this same man could be dismissed by a completely average woman without hesitation.

I think a lot of guys are just socially inept/weird and they don't even know it. I'm 5'8. Bald. Average income. Average looks. Average dick. Average social circle. Etc.

I've never had a problem attracting girls. I've never had an issue with sl00ts cheating on me. I've never had an issue dating or had to worry about being single. And even though I'm in a very LTR with a great girl. I have 0 doubts I could replace her in a matter of minutes/hours if my relationship ended. Could easily cheat/have a side chick if I wished as well.

I also know plenty of life-average manlets in the 5'5-5'6 range that have 0 issues dating and/or are happily married. I consider myself fairly average in most regards and I think women are pretty easy. So when I hear miscers e-statting about how great they are and how good they look and they struggle with women. I know they are some socially awkward dudes.



I'm definitely not the stereotypical "High value man" that's always parroted on podcasts and my girl practically worships me. Yall dudes are literally putting pussy on a pedestal. Women aren't that intelligent and are fairly easy to manipulate brahs.

It's almost like you have a chit personality and/or are a bad person. And you just don't see it.
