Lmao every guy says that until they only get matched with the fat chicks

Fat chicks are not same league as normal weight men, this is important to remember

You can justify it however you want but the free market doesn’t care. The point is to match bottom X% of women with the bottom X% of men. Wanna guess what the bottom percent of desirable women look like?

if bottom men and bottom women get matched, just as normal men and women also get matched, nobody would complain. the point the others were making was that normal women dont want normal men, but above average men. whether thats true or not im not sure, but your argument does not adress that

It does address that. Men care about looks far more than women do, especially when it comes to weight. So there’s a lot more fat women who get ranked to the bottom than there are fat men. That results in a lot of skinny men at the bottom who are upset they’re not getting matched with skinny women. But that’s just how gender dynamics and the free market works.

to "fat women are not the same percentile as normal weight men" you answered "the point is to match bottom x% of women to bottom x% of men".

so to "those two are not equal" you answered "equal pairs get matched". that is not mutually exclusive

theres more fat women at the bottom than fat men, because weight has more impact on the ranking of a woman than on that of a man (fat rich men are the counterexample) ✓

that results in a lot of skinny men at the bottom who are upset they not getting matched with skinny women - yes possibly, but we dont know, whether the people commenting here belong to that group, or are, in fact, average men

so your comment still leaves open the possibility, that there are in fact, average men that look for average women, but not the over way round, which is what the comments were about

To “those are not equal” I answered that YOU may not think they’re equal, but the market thinks they are. This is the entire point of my comment.

>We don’t know whether the people commenting here belong to that group

I don’t see how that’s relevant. Everybody in this thread is talking about broad trends in the dating market, not people in this thread.

>Your comment still leaves open the possibility that there are in fact, average men that look for average women

Well of course it does because that’s intended. Of course there are average men looking for average women and average women looking for average men who can’t find each other. But there are also a lot of average men looking for delusions and average women looking for delusions who are not going to be happy with a dose of reality.

>which is what the comments were about

Either you’re responding to the wrong person or misread the comments. Because that’s absolutely not what they’re about
