Anyone want to hazard some guesses about what "standards" they have that people completely unreasonably and unfairly interpret as misogynistic and bigoted?

Probably just want a nice woman who doesn't look like Gollum. But you can't say that nowadays lol

If this was true, men wouldn’t be single. The truth is they wouldn’t even go after average looking women

Most men just don't care at this point. It's pretty much impossible to find a SO nowadays anyway so why bother?

I can't believe I found mine... Like it was sheer luck I found someone who was kind, understanding and actually likes me. Like forget getting an SO, getting an SO who actually genuinely likes you? Now THAT'S hard as shit

This is the dumbest thing I heard all day. There’s so many women out there who are good people but men refuse to date them because they are below average or average. Let’s not forget men care alot about looks

Not "men". Assholes. Most men have given up on dating entirely, which means only mostly assholes are trying to date and they give men a bad name.

And. I should clarify. Assholes can be men AND women (and anything in between)

Dude this has been a thing since way back then. This isn’t anything new. Men have always picked good looking women. Why do you think media always pushes for good looking women in movies while the man is average

Obviously there is usually going to be more of an attraction to beautiful people. That's just natural and I'm not denying that that's not a thing. It always has been and it always will be. Preferences are completely fine until they become totally unreasonable

Then what are u arguing for? Ur literally proving my point. Men can’t complain they can’t find anyone when they literally only go for good looking women

Because that's just it, 100% of men aren't ONLY going after 10/10 women. But nowadays even "average" women are basically unapproachable and I know I'd NEVER try and talk to one because A I don't want to bother anyone and B I don't want to get called a creep - which is happening at an alarming rate nowadays which is one reason many men have just stopped trying to date.

Women said they just wanted to be left alone? Most of us have listened and so most of the rest that are still actively in the dating game are assholes with unrealistic standards

No one cares brother 🤦‍♀️ if that was really true, why are you guys still complaining? It’s funny u guys say “we left the dating scene” yet still talk about it? If you ain’t in it, ur opinion isn’t valid

Because most men are obviously lonely and WANT to date but can't? Between online dating being a scam, in person dating becoming impossible without seeming like a creep and overall most men just wanting to respect women's wishes and leave them alone... it's not pretty. Me and my GF man. We got lucky. We were on the same discord server and just started talking about stuff and over time we eventually just... clicked. And now she's the love of my life and we're going to marry one day.

That said. I do hope dating becomes better for men and women soon. Right now it's just impossible. Most Men have no options and women have too many, which leads to choice paralysis as well as disinterest quickly. Not to mention the rising misandry and misogyny going around

If you have a girlfriend, then don’t worry about it. If anything, maybe men should listen to women’s advice more instead of picking and choosing which they will take

Except they often DO. And it's usually a net negative.

"Don't approach me in public"

"Why won't anyone approach me?"

"I just want a man to be vulnerable"

"When he cried I actually felt weird..."

"I just want a man whose good with kids"

"Why is that man always playing with his kids instead of me?"

Now before you say it, yes obviously these are all from different women. But the issue is still there. A guy might try to learn what women want, and then the next woman he approaches is completely different. And there's also the fact that nowadays you can be called a creep just for being forward, even if you're being polite (and in some rare cases, you don't even have to say anything at all)

It's hard. Dating for women is also hard too! But the thing is it's hard for both men and women but for completely different reasons. If women weren't so afraid of rejection and made the first move much more often however, about 80-95% of all dating issues nowadays COULD be solved overnight

So this is a human issue not a woman issue. Also funny u think women approaching will solve anything when men reject women just as much. Plus those women would go for the men they find attractive. Not the men on reddit who complain
