Saying that having your shit together is "top X%" is different than saying being 6ft or having a sharp jawline is "top X%". The former is achievable by anyone, the latter are not.

No. Re-read the quote you posted. It is only talking about "dual-income marriages". This means it is excluding all of the SAHMs.

Those are dual income marriages. Not every marriage is dual income. In the ones that aren't, the man is the one with the income, 95% of the time. I'm pretty sure the stat is 17% like I said.

Where is the stat that women out-earn men in 40% of marriages? I thought that stat came from single women with deadbeat husbands. Pretty sure the real number is something like 17%.

To be honest, I don't really know anyone I would describe as a ray of sunshine. Seems like someone who would make the ideal partner though, so I would be surprised if they were single. Not really sure what you're trying to say with the second paragraph so just going to ignore that.

Most conservatives on here aren't socially conservative (i.e. they are not against non-binary, lgbtq+, racist, etc). They are economically conservative (i.e. less taxes, favor capitalism, etc). I think a lot of it comes from the culture of America -- everyone thinks they're the main character of the movie, destined for greatness. And so they oppose any economic policies that would hamper that greatness, even of it is something that they will never realistically achieve.

There are more factors than income and education. For example, I think a financially successful immigrant / child of immigrants would probably prefer a financially successful partner from a state school as opposed to a less financially successful partner from an Ivy. Other factors like religion and political affiliation probably play a role (e.g. certain political affiliations preferring successful people from less classy background vs others preferring less successful people from more classy ba…

Geeky women don't "geek out" around geeky men because it will cause those geeky men to instantly fall in love and/or become obsessed with them (not exaggerating). Obvious undesired situations and awkwardness then arise. This is probably why there are a lot of geeky woman + geeky man relationships where they both geek out with each other, but it's rare to see the same happen in platonic situations.

Most PPDers don't fully understand standards, requirements, and settling. People don't have "standards" for the partner they are looking for, they have "standards" for how they want to live their life, and then they make up "requirements" for their partner that they think will allow them to live life up to their standards. But then they realize that living life up to those standards doesn't actually depend on having a partner that meets those arbitrary requirements; They can still meet 100% of t…

Yes. But the difference is that for men it is because they can't (easily) get another woman in general. For women it's because they can't (easily) get another alpha man.

It'a not based on the start date, it's based on the length. You look at what percentage of marriages started in 1990 ended up divorced by 2000 vs what percentage of marriages started in 2010 ended up divorced by 2020.

Obviously flawed implication. This data says: Amongst men that actually want to get married, most of them want kids. This is not the same as: Amongst men in general, most of them get married because they want kids. OP's point still stands that most men get married to please their SO and/or family.

I strongly believe that the only situation a that it would be okay for a childfree man to get married is when: You've been together for a long time (5+ years) She makes around as much as you or more. Even then, the risks are still substantial: She changes her mind about children (probably happens to 30%+ of childfree women). Divorce will still end up poorly for the man even when incomes are equal. For this reason, I would probably recommend any childfree man to just have a wedding, a ring, calli…

Why do people keep saying this? How do you know most people will end up in relationships? I predict that when the current generation (18-24 year olds) become older, many men will end up lonely and many women will find companionship with each other. Looking at the current 35+ year old population is obviously not going to be indicative because when they were younger, the dating world had completely different dynamics.

Height matters in fields where it's about how you present yourself and how powerful your network is. Honestly, this is most fields except tech. If we were to compare height of non-tech CEOs vs tech CEOs I'm sure the former would be taller. I think that tech is the exception here because those companies basically start as one or more nerds in their basement coding along until they make something worth paying for. Even this is changing, though.

My point is clear: women's standards decrease over time. The fact that there are a few new (non-physical) standards that are tacked on in their 30's doesn't change that, because those standards that get tacked on are piss easy to meet. Meanwhile the standards that they lose as they get older (height, facial attractiveness, etc) are harder/impossible to meet for some men.

I think that falls into the "you need connections" category. I think what the poster you're replying to is right; every job either requires "skills", "connections", or a mix of both. And the relevant "skills" in today's world are overwhelmingly STEM.

Non-physical standards are irrelevant, not because they don't exist (certainly, non-physical standards exist, I'm not debating that) but because they are so easy to meet that they aren't really worth talking about, at least in comparison to the decline in physical standards. It's like some kind of "gotcha" that is thrown out and about: whenever guys claim that women's standards decrease over time, there is always someone trying to disprove them, but they only ever list non-physical requirements.…

Yeah, these are my thoughts as well. Everyone claims that past civilizations with sexless men resulted in chaos and unrest. But that was because, when those men stopped working for the benefit of society, there was nothing there to replace them. Now we have automation which can fill that void, so I don't think it will be an issue.

I would curious to hear a explanation. One possible reality I foresee: In the future most people won't have sex with real people, in the same way that we've developed a replacement for breastfeeding. Once technology allows for a complete and unequivocally better replacement for biology, most people will accept it with little resistance.

Ah that makes sense.

My hypothesis is that the US has problems with this starting from a young age, and the imbalance only gets noticed at high school / university.

In simple terms: Plaid is just something that connects to your bank account. It's how financial apps like Robinhood connect to your bank account. A website could theoretically use the same thing, let you connect your bank account and click a button to generate digital signature. Then you give the signature to the mod team. But anyways, I don't really want to continue this thought experiment... I'm sure there are flaws with this method I've come up with on the fly. It's run its course.

Plaid is an entirely automated income / asset checker. For example: It's possible for someone to verify their income / assets through plaid on some website, and then that website generates some kind of digital signature as proof, and then that is presented to the mods, and the mods can then verify the signature without being able to tell any information about the person. Again, what I'm presenting is just an outline. Edit: In case you're unfamiliar, I'm talking about cryptographic signatures, no…

Not sure what you're trying to say. If you're having trouble understanding how someone could verify their networth and/or income, see plaid.com. This is obviously may not be an ideal solution as it may compromise identity (I'm not sure if there is an anonymous verification option), but it is a start.
/r/PurplePillDebate12/01/21 09:27 AM

I would hope that the mods would do some kind of verification if this suggestion were to be implemented. If they didn't then, yes, there would be no point in this idea at all; people could just lie.

Agreed. I recall a recent post talking about how difficult it is to find tall smart non-balding men that make 6 figures.

Meta point: I really wonder sometimes what the demographics of PPD are like in terms of income level, social class, etc. The social dynamics of the average person working an office job making 60K a year and a doctor making 500K a year are going to be incredibly different.

Most men were not meant to succeed biologically. Societally-encouraged sexual conservatism was meant to counter this, but with that removed I think things will revert slowly. There is nothing men or women can do about this. I think it's mostly true that there are fewer eligible men these days; as non-physical factors (e.g. employment, wages, education) become more equitable between genders, the only remaining differentiating attributes are things that cannot be easily changed (height, face, etc.…

My statement goes for both genders. Guys adding ~1.5 inches to their barefoot height is so common place that what everyone now thinks of as "6 foot" (men and women) is probably more like 5'10.5 or so. It's telling when like 1/3 of all guys claim to be 6'+ when really only 14% of them are.

Austism of this post aside, here are some things that you didn't take into account: What is colloquially known as "6 foot" is more like 5'10.5 when measured without shoes and no exaggeration. Similar adjustments should be made for dick size. IQ and 6 figure income are highly correlated. Probably also weak correlations between height and income. High income balding people are also more likely to pay the $10K or whatever to fix their hairline á la Elon Musk. Also, people don't date within the enti…

There are too many people that have incredible potential early on in life and then squander it completely after getting out into the real world that it no longer makes sense to commit to someone until they're already successful. At least, that's what I personally think.

I agree that technology is the future, but that's besides the point. Tech companies have a different company culture than tech arms of non-tech firms, which results in different kinds of people working at each, regardless of the fact that the day-to-day work on the job can be similar.

If you follow the thread along, you'll see that the other poster and I already clarified and came to an agreement. I think it would be helpful if you elaborate on what you're talking about in more concrete terms -- by "core of tech folk" do you mean 80%? 50%? 20%?

This... does not match my experience at all. From my perspective, what you're describing are by far the exceptions. Maybe in a place like NYC, the types of engineers you describe are slightly more common, but that is certainly not the case in a place like SF. Hell, I would estimate a good 30-40% alone are traditional Indian/Chinese H1B types. I suspect you are looking at things in reverse: you filter for desirable men, and then look at those that are engineers. This will obviously not be represe…

IQ is genetic (for the most part). If you adopt a super model baby, they likely will only have average IQ. If this weren't the case, and I wasn't child-free, then I would likely adopt super model babies to be honest.

I think we are just disagreeing about the base definitions here. It's probably true that different people have different definitions of being "socially well-adjusted". I can imagine that, being in STEM for a long time (and probably living in a STEM-heavy city, although correct me if I'm wrong), has given you a certain mental image of what that means. I agree that very few people in STEM meet the "brogrammer-in-mom's basement" stereotype. But at the same time, they also aren't anywhere near as so…

Nice n = 2 sample size. I'm talking about most (read: 70%+), not all. Go to any tech company and interact with the people there for 2 seconds and you'll realize that while many people have the soft skills needed to do their work, they don't have much beyond that in real social situations. The person you were replying to wasn't talking about soft skills at work -- they were talking about social situations in real life.

When STEM people say they have soft skills what they really mean is the absolute bare minimum social skills necessary to communicate / explain something to anyone non-technical, nothing more than that. Throw them into a club or house party and watch them freeze up and retreat to the corner.

I'm not saying that "logic-driven" means socially underdeveloped. I mean that kind of person who would use that phrasing is also the kind of person that is socially underdeveloped. In general, having to say explicitly "my personality is X", instead of indicating that your personality is X through your actions and mannerisms, means that you probably have a hard time in social situations.

Yeah I can see it going either way; it's really hard to tell with these things because they are so dependent on the situation and the people. I think by "should" you mean that you would prefer if the guy you are with / want to be with would do that for you specifically (correct me if I'm wrong).

It's hard to put a "should" or "shouldn't" on these things; they are very much dependent on the vibe.

If it's like two people at latin dance class and as class ends, the man asks the woman that he was dancing with if she wants to check out the next-door sandwich shop with him, then I think it's more debatable.

If a man wants a woman that is going to cook, clean, and have children, etc. he should pay. If he doesn't want that kind of arrangement, he should look for women who are more adamant about paying for themselves (many such women exist amongst the educated early 20's working professional population).

I would still disagree. Most people want to date other people that are in the same socioeconomic bracket as them. This is not limited to socially inept people. That being said, people make reasonable exceptions when they are in love, but that doesn't mean they "don't care".

Most men care about money, including those that are not "insecure and socially incompetent". From my general observations, most people here are well-off (at least compared to general society).
