[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to dating app data and anecdotal experience 80% of women tend to go for the 5% of men. Those men have little incentive to settle down because they have an abundance of options. Women want to date a higher status male. A successful woman has a hard time dating a waiter, while the inverse is not true. The higher a woman's status, the smaller her dating pool becomes. The higher a man's status becomes, the larger his dating pool becomes. Women have become highly educated and their statuses have climbed dramatically over the last several decades, but their dating preferences have only gotten stricter and stricter. So they end up not pairing off and having babies. And the birth rate drops. [b]Women need to widen their dating preferences.[/b] Read the book “Marry Him” by Lori Gottlieb. It does a good job explaining this. [/quote] Or -- hear me out, here -- maybe women need to decide whether or not dating the men available to them is really worth it, or if they want to stay single. Because if the men don't measure up, maybe it's up to them to do better instead of women's responsibility to accept less (if that lesser is not worth it to them).[/quote] I think women have really changed in the last couple of generations. Unfortunately, I don’t think men have changed much. The idea of a “trad wife” or the whole “man of the house” trope is not really appealing for women. Women are looking for an equal partnership and until men adjust to this idea, marriage won’t be in the cards.[/quote] And the planet will be really happy to see the human population decrease as it will take men a LOOOOOOONG time to get it together. As someone that wants a healthy, sustainable planet, it’s a good thing! [/quote]
