So men should solve all their financial and career problems to date and be worthy of love?

By contrast, women demand more selection of men instead of improving themselves. They often get easy "prestigious" degrees with heavy student loans while overlooking blue collar men and mere state university graduates.

If you are “struggling” with your career - stop thinking you deserve a woman who is an 8. You don’t. Dating is very much like capitalism. It always has been. Did you ever see the captain of the football team settle for the mousy artsy girl? No. Men fail to recognize their standards are too high.

Men: I want a submissive wife who does all the house work and childcare
Also men: You want ME to pay for EVERYTHING?! Gold digger!

I don't think that's the point. The top women are doing fine too. It's everyone else that is complaining

And yet a "top" woman wrote this NYT editorial.

Are they? Cause I'm pretty sure a common social media topic typically posted and commented on by women is how top earning, educated, women cannot find male partners.

Lets be real. The top men are married. The top women are married. Who ever is left is what's left.

If you are “struggling” with your career - stop thinking you deserve a woman who is an 8. You don’t. Dating is very much like capitalism. It always has been. Did you ever see the captain of the football team settle for the mousy artsy girl? No. Men fail to recognize their standards are too high.

Your post is well-written.

I never saw the captain of the football team start a relationship with the mousy artsy girl (the "MAG"). However, I did see several instances where the football captain would hook up with a MAG, and then the MAG would treat the hookup as making her equivalent to the head cheerleader in social status and looks, when she was not.

The problem was that the MAG would wait for the football captain (or star running back) to call and ignore the mousy Dungeons & Dragons-playing boy, who was more likely to treat her as a girlfriend rather than a hookup. Later, when the football captain never calls, the MAG "settles" for the D&D boy and posts on DCUM about how there are no good-looking men available.

The captain of the football team wins the head cheerleader, no matter how many MAGs he has bagged, and they are happy. The MAG never receives the attention the head cheerleader receives, no matter how many times she hooks up with the football captain. If she is smart, and most are, she accepts and loves the D&D boy the best she can, and they are happy.

I thought it was supposed to be based on personality…??

The whole article is framed by examples and facts of her being out socializing with friends or herself, and men are no where to be seen. And if they are seen, they are fondling their phones for hours by themselves, in public or not.

That’s literally the whole article.

Like those who have nothing to say except rephrase the opposite of what was just said? That anti-social personality disorder?

As I saw it put today, for dating:

- Women treat it as shopping

- Men look at it as a job interview

What man wants to deal with this with some urban professional woman who is very impressed with herself?

So the captain of the football team is a douchebag for treating the MAG as nothing but a booty call, and the MAG is an idiot for thinking a boy who has sex with her cares for her.

She may have been an idiot, but he is definitely a selfish ahole, and more than likely, will continue to be a selfish ahole after marriage.

They are a bore.

I love it when women list their profession (VP, executive, etc.) or the college they attended in their profile on tinder. It's always a top 20 school like Michigan or Harvard LMAO. They are really impressed with themselves!
