A girl could weed out the players and the subsequent broken heart/soiled reputation by insisting on courtship, an engagement ring, vetting by her father or father figure (if Dad's a shitbag), and a set wedding date before allowing any man past first base but that would mean losing her turn to get freaky with smooth talkin' Chad Thundercock and she isn't about to miss out on that.

I don't think it's a game. Being picky isn't a positive trait. Idk what else to tell you. That's probably a difference between men and women, men don't like to play games in relationships. We say what we mean and don't throw up unnecessary hoops to jump through. We've got bigger fish to fry than that. It seems most American women feel unless they are making things unnecessarily convoluted then they might be missing out on something. Not a good thing. |

In the context in which she was speaking, no man is "needed". As in, no specific woman absolutely needs a man to wife her up. Spinsters can do just fine on their own in terms of making ends meet, feeding themselves, and surviving day to day existence. A relationship is lovely, but a spouse isn't necessary for survival. That was previously only something men could decide whether they wanted in their lives, barring the good graces and financial security of a woman's family. And she was still considered a social oddity and pitied at best. I thought the contextual nature of her comment was fairly obvious, but perhaps I was mistaken.

Quoted: My point for this is that in THIS thread there are a lot of posts of how unrealistic her expectations are and how she wants the perfect man or some super special dude. The fact that ticking off half the boxes on that list makes a man (according to the ones here) *super special* is what's clearing things up for me regarding this oft-lamented aspect of *women nowadays* who won't settle. Subnets a supercool dude. But he is disqualified physically because of her minimum height standard and fitness standards. He thinks he checks half her boxes. As a single guy who plays this game for real, that’s not how it works. He checks no boxes because he is disqualified for height and fitness. Personally, the tallest woman I ever dated was 5'7". I'm 5'8". We met online and she liked my profile and knew how tall I was beforehand. Some will care, some won't. Its like guys who demand a woman have 34DD boobs. Its an arbitrary thing you can't fix or change and just as silly of a requirement. I went on a date with a woman about my height (about 6'). She rejected me for being "too" short, despite complaining that there were very few guys who were both tall and dateable. That's a clue. King of Manlets! ETA: I hadn't lied about my height before meeting in person either. She knew I wasn't "tall". (even "blue collar ripped") I think height really was her thing/fetish. |

From another VooDoo3dfx post, there was a video of what women want video. The basics of facial attractiveness is that more women rate guys with chiseled looks as more attractive. So getting fatter lowers a guy's facial attractiveness... and we're becoming a nation of soft bodies. Take Chris Pratt for instance. Now I imagine most gals found him an attractive dude before, but now that he got himself in shape he's one of Hollywood's top stars and I'm sure women find more attractive. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/78/7a/d7/787ad78e9bf062d9e35f733b24483009.jpg Guys would have to be billionaires, captains of industries, celebrities, Emirates princes to even get close to those numbers. These guys will sure be picky. Remember the rotation Tiger Woods had? Have you ever had a 100% batting average when talking to women? Of course not . |

If you don't mean picky why not just say selective? I've heard so many doozies on these threads I take everyone at what they say. Not hard to believe when a woman says she wants to be picky.

According to the study, they rate a whopping 80% of men on the site as ‘below average’. My first guess was that there was an issue with self-selection here (i.e. unattractive men congregate on the site for whatever reason).

Yeah, it's lopsided and always has been, just how it is. Any reasonable attractive woman just needs to set up a profile with some pics and watch the inbox get bombed. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Well, the Treasury disagrees with your 'spinsters do fine' beliefs. https://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/economic-policy/Documents/The%20Economic%20Security%20of%20American%20Households-The%20Economic%20Security%20of%20Older%20Women.pdf View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

In the context in which she was speaking, no man is "needed". As in, no specific woman absolutely needs a man to wife her up. Spinsters can do just fine on their own in terms of making ends meet, feeding themselves, and surviving day to day existence. A relationship is lovely, but a spouse isn't necessary for survival. That was previously only something men could decide whether they wanted in their lives, barring the good graces and financial security of a woman's family. And she was still considered a social oddity and pitied at best. I thought the contextual nature of her comment was fairly obvious, but perhaps I was mistaken. https://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/economic-policy/Documents/The%20Economic%20Security%20of%20American%20Households-The%20Economic%20Security%20of%20Older%20Women.pdf Nowhere did I state that spinsters will do fine in all cases across the board. I said they can do fine. As in, the opportunity is there, should they choose to make an effort. They are only limited by their personal drive and will to succeed, not a legal structure that bars them from decent employment opportunities, property ownership, or the ability to conduct legal and financial business in their own names. They don’t need a man to do those things for them or sign off that it’s ok. Whether they do or not is on them. |

I don't think it's a game. Being picky isn't a positive trait. Idk what else to tell you. That's probably a difference between men and women, men don't like to play games in relationships. We say what we mean and don't throw up unnecessary hoops to jump through. We've got bigger fish to fry than that. It seems most American women feel unless they are making things unnecessarily convoluted then they might be missing out on something. Not a good thing.
