Just skimming over this thread has been as uncomfortable as getting a handjob from a girl with prosthetic arms, and I should know...
The same reason men today nearly always overestimate how many women they have a chance with.
This contradicts what I been hearing from a lot of women complaining that men go for average to ugly girls more because they assume they have zero chances with any women on their own league.
Have you ever asked women what they really want?

Thanks for the reddit advice but that's as dumb as asking women for dating advice. Whatever they tell you they want is not what they really want, and that's best case scenario because most don't like it when you make those clueless virgin questions. Women like to be surprised, they don't want to tell you what to do, that's boring.
Tropes about demanding women that I have never personally observed any woman in my real life do:
- Demand a hugely expensive wedding ring
- Dismiss on principle any man under 6ft
- Demand a man be making $100k+ salary
- Demand that a man owns his own house or owns an expensive car
- Expect a man to wait on her hand and foot
- Have ridiculously mismatched expectations on the required attractiveness of men
Only the most socially retarded femcel would say those things in public, but its implied when they reject men who aren't some or all of those. Social media has been a big mask-off moment because suddenly all these rumors where out in the open.
I mean, I just find it fucking weird that it's kinda on both ends at this point.
GenX dudes used to say "yeah chivalry is dead, and women killed it", it was subtle joke but it was an answer to the then rising third wave feminism which went mainstream in the 2010s. The current wave of misogynism coming from the likes of baldy tate is an answer to the normalization of misandry that happened since then.
dealing with modern Western women
Its happening all over the place, even in supposedly patriarchal societies like Iran you have women doing this, reason why their birthrates are plummeting.
Its clearly a global phenomenom, I don't care how many green card baiters (aka: "passport bros", what kind of loser doesn't have a passport?) tell you the contrary, talk to the local men and many will tell you the same things we're talking about here. Hell a lot of "redpill" culture its just common sense among black and latino men, its only whitey who is shocked by the revelation.
I'll leave it with this: a photo of Pokimane with no makeup. This is the look of an office manager's wife, not a millionaire stripper / whore:
She's latina right?
A woman that, decades ago, would be moderately cute can now create a social media page and have disgusting men simp for her and validate all her opinions. It inflates her value to the point she won't even consider the guys she would have paired up with in times prior to Facebook.
We were already seeing this nearly 20 years ago, mid chicks who were nobodies at school got tons of attention on 4chan and myspace. Even back in the 90's any uggo login to a forum got showered with PMs from all the guys there. The current situation its just an extension of that.
all people regardless of gender have to swallow the reality pill here: everyone who is really clever, or really pretty, or has great prospects in life? By 26, 27, they are all paired off. many of them before they were 25.
Nah, its the average ones who get married that young, the top ones might not even marry until they are 40 specially the men, because why settle when you have it good? meanwhile the ones at the bottom don't pair because they can't, simple as.
You need to do that when you are young.
Everyone and I mean everyone I know who married young ended up divorced.
