[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Today the average woman wants absolutely nothing to do with the average man. If a man is not at least 6 feet tall & makes at least 6 figures he is almost completely out of the dating pool. Because a male 9 hooked up with her one night because he was drunk & bored a female 4 thinks she is owed a 9 or 10 high value man & will settle for nothing less.

Because of the combination of the IPhone dating apps, social media, the Covid/George Floyd insanity of 2020, & 3rd wave feminism we have a lost generation of women. And the show Sex & the City convinced women they could move to a big city, be boss babes & ride the cock carousel with every man they could & still think high value men would still want to date & marry them. What is going on right now is a ticking time bomb for our society & it’s not going to end well.[/quote]

You talk about how women want these things, using a scale/rating system men created to objectify women. Sounds like classic "you can dish it out, but can't take it".

When women started working and no longer had to put up with men to survive, they started playing the same games men do, and men lost. Instead of leveling up (e.g. learning some emotional intelligence, how to connect with women as people, etc) men retreated to porn and bro culture and whinged about how women didn't exist solely to please them anymore. They're not wrong now; women exist to please themselves, just like men always have. They were wrong then, when they thought/expected women to cater to them and grew soft and weak while women did all the emotional labor of maintaining relationships. Now, men with atrophied emotional muscle are being tasked with actually connecting with women as humans and, well, y'all suck at it.

Work harder. Suck less.

But they don't. They whine and complain and want to regress (i.e. "make ______ great again" where "great" equals "easier for mediocre men")[/quote]

You mean men should follow more ridiculous women rules?[/quote]

Well, you could see it that way. You could also consider why men made such ridiculous rules for women (be a size 2! Be beautiful and quiet! Always laugh at his jokes! Spend your life in servitude and always have a smile!), and that the consequences you're experiencing now are the direct result and backlash against those rules.

And then, you can try to mend the rift by, you know, evolving. Or, you can stay as you are and get left behind. Choices![/quote]
+1 c'mon, man, you men want women to:

1. love sex and want it when you want it
2. not gain weight
3. be low maintenance and low drama
4. like to have fun

What exactly are you bringing to the relationship now that women are able to make the same, or in many cases, more than men?  Wives are still doing the majority  of the housechores, child care, and even elderly care, all while still working FT.  What exactly is the man bringing to the relationship here?

Women today want equal partners. If you can't do that, then that could be why you are still single.

BTW, I'm 54 and been married for 20+ years.  Not saying our marriage is perfect, but we have tried to be equal partners throughout our marriage.  There is no way I would've married a man who did not want to be an equal partner.[/quote]

So? Women want men to:

1. Be 6ft tall
2. Earn well over the average income.
3. Be well-endowed
4. Have a full head of hair 
5. Be fit

ok, so cuts both ways, no?  Then stop complaining, you hypocrite.[/quote]
