I'm not a Rogan meathead, but women are absolutely super choosey these days. Dating apps have given women an inflated sense of their own (dating) worth, and they largely want tall, handsome, well-off, slightly older men.
Of course I'm painting with a broad brush here, but this post is talking in generalities anyway.
If this is happening even a little bit it is because of the distorting forces of capitalism and addictive phone apps are warping peoples interactions on dating apps.
I promise you, if you are genuinely a pretty nice human being who tries to be a good person there are plenty of women out there who want to fuck you. Really, the world is full of horny women who get hot and bothered by realizing that cute man they just met is also really sweet and kind. You don’t need fit any particular idea of a man, I understand it feels like you do and that is an awful feeling but it is a feeling not the reality.
Also women are probably more choosey because they are by large exhausted from work places that grind them down, trying to make rent, healthcare bullshit and any number of other struggles of modern life, just like you. They want to make sure that use their vanishing amount of free time, energy and money pursuing somebody that isn’t going to be a dead end.
If you want the quickest route to more men finding women who are interested in them, then support unionization, the social safety net, workers rights, and progressive legislation on housing. We need to take better care of people so that they have more free time, energy and money to pursue love and sex.
Fair enough. I'm not an incel and I have found some luck in the dating scene. But it's important that we speak honestly about these trends in dating. And while I don't think all problems in society stem from capitalism, I do agree that capitalism is exasperating the problems in the dating scene.
Filters out superficial woman quite efficiently.
It's nice of you to display your red flags so obviously
Apparently my red flags are being too short. But let's keep pretending that women are saints 🙏🏽
Maybe dating apps aren't the best way to stand out to women? What worked for me was putting effort into my social life. I met my current partner after a mutual friend knew both of us were single and asked if we were open to meeting up.
