"It's still true lower body counts tend to have less divorce" I'd actually argue that this is less about the body count itself and has pretty heavy correlations with other factors, like religion and the role marriage plays there and how divorce is viewed/shamed. This is especially true because the biggest example of what you're saying is when it comes to virginity. Virgin brides are significantly more likely to be religious people. The other factor usually explained in this research is about chi…

100% It's kind of sad when you see women who buy into the rhetoric on these manosphere podcasts. They aren't exercising critical thinking during the bulk of the debates or don't want to challenge the men. Then one of the guys talks about marriage being a bad idea or how he wouldn't take care of a child from a woman he doesn't like and the shocking takes kind of semi-jolt them awake and they're like, "whoa, what?" Some of these women who buy into these ideas on these podcasts think that these guy…

Wrong. Not in the United States anyway. Couples where they’re both young at marriage have higher divorce rates than couples in late 20s to mid 30s range, which is the best age range when it comes to marriage/low divorce rates. The lowest divorce rates by age gap are people with one year apart - the wider the age gap, the higher the likelihood of divorce. Once you start getting to 10 years apart, the likelihood of divorce is very significant compared to couples with small age gaps, and by 20 year…

Single women in that age range are only rare if you live in rural or maybe suburban areas. I’ve lived in multiple cities and never noticed a shortage of single women in that age range. Maybe country also matters as well - I’m American. Where are you from? Also education and class/social circles also probably matter here as well. Men from back in high school or college? Now I’m really interested in where you’re from. The major cities aren’t like this at all. I don’t think this is true unless he’s…

They're trash and ridicule anything women struggle with on that show. They're usually dripping in bitterness and misogyny, on top of being uneducated and struggling with logical reasoning, as is much of the manosphere. I hate-watch that show often and I doubt it will even shock me at this point tbh. Will watch later though

That's just historical fact though. Most marriages were not initially based on love in human history. Marriage has been largely about property, land, wealth, family, and survival for the woman. Any basic history class can teach this, it's not hidden information. The fewer rights women have, the more they will stay in relationships that they would have exited if they could do so safely and without crippling social shame. Asking whether or not those women never loved their partners is kind of miss…

There are none. People define their own relationships and what they're looking for and can offer one another. I know that makes antifeminists uncomfortable, but that's what happens when you can't control everyone and shove your conservative beliefs down other people's throats, at least for now. Women's rights have nothing to do with what men owe them in relationships beyond abuse and things that violate their rights. Outside of rights being violated, no one man owes any woman anything either - h…

Ah, I see. But here's the thing though - a lot of guys don't understand this, especially when it comes to overweight girls. Guys online here will talk about how we're struggling to get laid and the opposite is true in my experience. It depends on the girl, of course, but the same is true for thin girls. You probably haven't noticed this, but I have. The logic often goes "no guys want to sleep with them, they get no attention, so xyz" or some dumb version of this. So while you think no one would …

This could be true, even if they don't realize it. By alone, I'd mean single though, not literally alone. Research shows women take a hit on mental health in marriage, while men benefit in terms of mental health. Women have higher rates of depression in relationships apparently, while the opposite is true for men. Elderly widows are happier once single again, etc. There are a lot of factors that go into this really, but I think many women have closer friendships/relationships outside of relation…

Men also ditch women they see as "not her." I think everyone does this, friend...And the more options you believe you have, the pickier you will be probably. But also I think beyond pickiness, if it just doesn't feel good/right, it just isn't going to work. It doesn't matter if *you think* the reasons are small or that he "hasn't done anything wrong." It's her choice, her hunt. Women could do the same thing for any given guy deciding a woman isn't the right match for him. It's also the type of w…

I agree. I’m overweight and almost all of the men who approached me while I was single were not fat. My bf is overweight and losing weight right now, but he was like only the second bigger guy I had gone on a first date with and one of a small handful of guys who tried to talk to me who were bigger. I think it’s definitely a matter of the guys who are most confident will approach more and those men are usually the more conventionally attractive and not overweight. The guys who approached me in p…

Thank you for saying real shit. I’m a fat girl who has dated mostly non-fat guys but finally settled into a relationship with a guy who is also in the obese category technically (he’s tall though so looks different on everyone, I’m short/average). I couldn’t be happier with him, and I was pursued by multiple non-overweight guys. My slim/fit friends are definitely out there and most are dating men who are also slim to fit.

This usually doesn’t happen here in the USA. Most men can’t afford to support entire families comfortably unless they live in rural areas or affordable suburbs. This isn’t 1950. Economics is a whole different ball game, especially in cities where most people live. But in other countries and cultures, maybe. Ambitious career women usually keep their careers until retirement. Aside from being fulfilled from work and accomplishments and not wanting to be a homemaker, it literally is the difference …

I think dudes should be authentic and live as they want to live for themselves and then find women who are compatible with those lifestyles. It's odd to me that he had to weigh anything, as you shouldn't be performing an entire lifestyle and value system just to get women. I hope he focuses on doing what makes him happy and sane, but I still think it could be worth talking to a therapist about that kind of drastic change. But maybe he learned that lesson, and if he did, I guess that's a good thi…

Stats and facts matter to me, not your feelings about feminism. According to facts, boss bitches are not the ones struggling most to get and stay married. It's the chicks on the opposite end of the spectrum who are struggling most and the gap widens over time. You would need to produce credible, objective data to prove otherwise. These trends have been going on for decades according to research (as the articles explain) - there's nothing I've seen from credible sources that would even imply such…

I think boss bitch means different things to some people here I guess. Women use the word bitch as an empowering slang term a lot, so for us things like boss bitch, bad bitch, "I'm that bitch" don't literally mean the negative, sexist defintion of the word. It's more a way of reclaiming the word. I've never heard boss bitch used a negative term in my real world context - only from red pill dudes online, so...

It's a red flag if she wants someone ambitious. It was a red flag for me, but not to everyone. My friend is dating a plumber and he's nowhere near as financially successful or ambitious as my bf. He's a great guy and so thoughtful and kind. I love his love for her. The red flag is the incompatibility and the inability to do things for yourself. The original commenter said he gave up multiple things just because he hadn't found a woman. This sounds to me like someone who was doing a lot just to g…

This makes no sense to me. "Boss bitch" stage is more likely in the 30s and 40s because she's more likely to be even more successful then. Your 20s is largely when you're just starting your career and building experience. Boss bitch to me just means someone who is experienced, confident, successful in what they do and about their business / career-minded. I suppose it can also mean someone aspiring for success as well. I take it that it means something different to you. Either way, that's irrele…

Yeah, I don't think most of us care about how Indian society views Americans, but I suppose it's good to hear a real perspective.

Personally, I dated an Indian guy who was interested in me for a long-term relationship, but he wasn't my type in the end.

I know these are the red pill talking points but I honestly wish you all did actual research on reality. The career oriented, educated women are more likely to get married in the first place these days and the least likely to get divorced. Uneducated women with no career or lower income are less likely to get married and more likely to get divorced. Couples who marry young are more likely to get divorced than those who marry older, up to a point, and age gap couples have extremely high divorce r…

Something about giving up many things just because you're single seems like a red flag for me. I think the preference is for men who are ambitious or goal oriented for themselves, as a part of who they are and their character, not men who purely do it just to impress or get women. I'd be skeptical about that. In any case, dating can be challenging for everyone. Women get ghosted and have conversations that seemed to go well but just didn't go anywhere. No doubt that women have more access to sex…

I cited statistics so have already disproven your argument that this is how all foreign men feel. Trust me, American women have our fair share of stereotypes about men from all countries. I don't need to be mean or racist, but American women also have stereotypes about Indian men. Ignorant people are everywhere, not just in India. This goes both ways. I have had American friends married to Indian men, so what you're saying definitely isn't true for everyone, but Asian men generally aren't the hi…

I'll also add that my own experience mirrors this. I wasn't really interested in dating when I was that young though - I focused on education, friends, self development, travel, etc. But I had fear of intimacy issues a bit too. Anyway, I'm in a great relationship with a very successful man who is highly ambitious imo and a top earner. We're only one year apart, both in our 30s. He's also respectful, not conservative and respects women, etc. I didn't have to date too long to find him and before I…

I personally think this goes back to the fact that dating gets better for women as we get older, contrary to popular red pill ideas. At least in Western countries, specifically here in the USA. I also have only lived in cities here, not conservative areas. Middle class marriages are actually disappearing and have been for the last 40 years or something. The more educated a woman (or man) is, the more likely she is to get married and less likely to get divorced. Couples who get married in their o…

But aside from that: - Therapy is a great resource for everyone.

It's technically not a lie, because people are going to have preferences whether or not society approves of them. But the problem could also be that sexist ideas are going to be perceived as rude, harmful, etc. It sounds like you don't like when people analyze the reasoning behind your preferences and call out your problematic views. This is common among the red pill camp because so much of your views are based on poor reasoning and minimal evidence. Personally, I came to many of my views partly…

Oh okay, kind of sounded like it lol Then I'd reiterate my post and that your sample size most likely focuses on / filters for very specific types of women beyond just pretty, which can be a subjective label on its own tbh. You're focused on women who fit your ideology of what high value woman means, and that's probably how the women you value behave/act/see the world at the moment.

My first guess would be that young girls are sex trafficked to foreign grown men far more than the other way around. It's a human rights issue and a common one. Also, women don't make content about hating everything about American men and how all American women should leave the states before they go do it.

But if these are the women you want, then what's the problem?

Wrong - age gaps have an astronomically higher divorce rate in the USA, compared to couples with small or no age gap differences. Couples with one year age gap difference have the lowest rates of divorce. So for anyone who wants a marriage that actually lasts, or a relationship that even approaches possibility of marriage and kid, age gaps aren't a great way to go. Some couples make it work though.

I don't really agree with the manosphere's definition of HVM and I know I don't fit their definition of HVW. Looking at many podcasts and who they praise as their models of who "high value men" are and the ways they talk about and to women has been a clear indication that my values and theirs don't line up at all, not just in who I am as a woman, but in terms of the men they find most attractive.

That's definitely true, although, even if you are conventionally less attractive, you could still have an audience that's interested in you. There are so many people in the world who like different things or are open. I think shifting perspective to thoughts and ideas that actually contribute to your productivity, well being, and happiness is important.

You know it's really interesting because the more I learn about red pill ideology, the more divorced from reality I think its proponents are. It's possible that it depends on where you live. As an American living in one of the largest cities and who has traveled a bit, lived abroad in Europe for a while, and lived in another smaller American city, it seems like delusion.

Yeah, and the key to any kind of dating is making sure you find the right match for you. I'm curious, do you hold the same standard to domestic things though?

The majority of divorced or single fathers do not pay child support and many (possibly most) don't pay it in full when it is mandated. Many men are known to literally hide their money to avoid supporting their children. Women are more likely to have primary child custody on one income with no child support and single mothers are significantly more likely to be poor than single fathers because of this. So if anyone has a huge issue to complain about, it's women. This reflects the opinions of a mi…

Also, who is “women”? And what are we even talking about here? Being less attracted sexually to anyone when they’re crying is probably a thing, but less attracted overall? That depends on the person and type of woman you’re pursuing. Outside of excessive crying, I think plenty of women would view it as a positive.

Imo, dating gets better in your 30s - I could include late 20s here as well. I think dating as a woman in a major liberal city in your 30s is arguably better than dating in your early 20s for several reasons. I think this myth of the wall is mostly true in more conservative areas and countries with overtly patriarchal and old fashioned views. Like in at least one Asian country, I've heard it's really hard for women to find relationships or marriage at 30. I can't remember which one though. They …

The concept of chivalry dates back to old European society and the behavior of gentlemen and knighthood. They wouldn’t have created female or women’s chivalry as a concept, as that would have seemed weird to them.

I mean, I think having some spaces like that could be a good idea, but most of us don't want to live without men.

We want men to be open to understanding the power structures that both favor and harm men in different ways and act as allies with us in pushing forward to a better society for the next generation.

I think without patriarchal control, women and children probably benefit from polygamy. Think of how many wives and children billionaires and millionaires could have? Even some men who have around 500k in income in lower cost areas could have a few wives that would benefit on a lower tier level. Those women and their children would gain a lot financially and in terms of quality of life and legacy, social status. I think average men are the only ones who really lose out.

Who's delusional here though? If the women we're talking about are enjoying the casual sex they want to have and finding relationships that make them happy, then where's the delusion? The reality is that very few women are delusional about social concepts of attractiveness. We all grew up knowing who was viewed as hot and who wasn't. What we have is a movement where we consider mental health and body image and people are choosing to be comfortable and happy with themselves, and unfortunately for…

More lies and deflection. There's something mentally off color about yourself if you want to actively see people less happy with how they feel about their bodies and how they look. This has nothing to do with "life isn't just about that." It's none of your business what anyone else's life is about.

Annoying and like a mosquito itch? Uh that's definitely not how I would describe it for me. I describe it as excitement, anticipation, anxiety, curiosity, and doing way too much. Once I'm in a serious relationship, it transcends some of that (though not completely) and comfort comes in, alongside slow moving joy and a deeper sense of connection. But unlike women who are asexual or demisexual specifically, I am purely sexually attracted to a lot of men (and women, but it's kind of different betwe…

Most men also like women for how they make them feel and what women do for them, as well as how access to women makes them look and access to sex being fun. Men aren't angels who see and value women unconditionally without any self-interest on average lolol Come on people, stop the foolishness.

Some of these women aren't online, so I would rethink not approaching people in person. Probably best to do it in a situation where you're socializing over shared interests or some common experience.

Honestly the elephant in the room. Erectile dysfunction and lack of stamina compared to younger men is probably a big part of why “cougars” are even a thing.

Early to mid 30s is an interesting in-between age. I was into a 27 year old a little while ago, but felt a 45 year old would be too old for a relationship. You specified casual sex, but to be honest I might still filter the same way. It’s also interesting that you linked Michael Cera - a lot of us were into him when I was younger. The whole skinny…

I’m not you though. It’s obvious we don’t share the same values lol You’re entitled to your feelings. Patriarchy is largely based on controlling women’s reproduction and sexual behavior, as well as being against LGBTQ people. It’s just historical fact at this point and not really a secret. Disapproval of casual sex is usually disproportionally focused on women’s sexuality and slut shaming. For me, unless you can wipe out the sexist backdrop for that kind of rhetoric, it’s against my feminist val…

Well, the data shows that people who marry young have high divorce rates. This could be for a variety of reasons, but research kind of speaks for itself on what marriage ages tend to produce what outcomes in today’s West/USA. I understand that it’s inconvenient for your beliefs. I think age is partly a social factor, but also it makes logical sense that young marriages have higher divorce rates. Young people are still maturing and it’s very easy to grow apart as you mature into adulthood. When y…

That makes sense that you disagree. Although, it’s still a huge generalization to say no progressives rush into relationships, but there’s probably a different attitude about it than yours. I believe in healthy relationships personally, and young people are notorious for rushing into very not great relationships. And that’s also understandable. You mentioned age in another comment. What do you consider older and younger?

The OP asked a question about finding tradcon women. In this context, my limited reading about tradcon indicates that it means people who are traditional and conservative in their lifestyle and politics. This to me sounds like a heavy nod to traditional patriarchal values about gender roles, ideas about gender, and probably a host of other things, once you add in conservative politics. So not simply monogamy, as anyone can be monogamous, but monogamous in a nuclear family, patriarchal family str…

Eh. Yes and no. The problem is how open someone is to finding out if you’re their type. I won’t know if you’re my type in the grocery store because I probably won’t be open to talking to you much. Unless you’re just talking about looks, I guess. Men are too simple minded about approaching women (and many things tbh).

What’s young and older to you? I’ve been progressive my entire life, but I can confirm based on what you think younger vs older means Yes, I understand and disagree with your opinion. I don’t think being in a happy or committed couple is an exclusively traditional thing. I DO think traditional people place way more emphasis on committed relationships as the only way to exist or be happy. Once society opens up possibilities, you have less pressure to jump into a relationship before you’re ready. …

Progressive people have committed relationships all the time 😂 Now it is true that progressives don’t live and die by committed relationships as the only path forward and don’t encourage people to rush into them before they’re ready. That’s where we see the difference.

Yeah that’s my thing - no one in my world thinks committed relationships are exclusively “traditional” lmao this sounds like something people online have created to uplift the tradcon thing.

I know many people who are not conservative who are married. Things like being open or poly may be more common but it’s definitely not everyone living that way. …

I travel often in leftist / progressive circles and see happy relationships everywhere.

I think many of us would find it irrational and less of a given. That’s what I meant. My cousin was celibate until her late 30s when she finally got married because god said so.

Women who believe men should be heads of the household, conservative politics on abortion, all kinds of things are mainly buoyed by religious dogma and sexist patriarchal structures that largely are enforced by religion.

Yeah, I’m sure they exist. I’m just not in that crowd, so if you’re already convinced, then I guess you don’t need the convincing that I said many of us would. I still don’t think that changes the fact that a large portion of people who aren’t religious are less likely to cling to tradcon ideals and beliefs. There’s a reason that very secular cities are different. But there are all kinds of people in the world. Maybe this reassures the OP 🤷‍♀️

Tradcon seems to imply much more traditional values than that, unless I’m mistaken. Isn’t it supposed to imply strong traditional values ?

I’ll also add that two successful, career oriented people who marry later in life will likely be able to spend more money on providing a good life for their children. I don’t mean to be classist at all, but it’s just a reality in this economy that money is tied to quality of housing, quality of education, access to opportunities, and even ideal psychological development for children, unfortunately. Traditional values advocate for the kind of lifestyle that would make that very difficult, if you …

Not sure about that. Can you cite your sources and link credible data here? There’s data that shows couples who marry young have a higher divorce rate than people who marry older. That challenges conservative ideals of marrying young. And most people who marry in their late 20s and early-mid 30s probably weren’t celibate the whole time. And age gaps have an astronomically high divorce rate in the USA (and probably other western / developed nations as well). I believe data also shows people who a…

Oh, this af! I’m a dirty leftist - an atheist feminist and socialist to boot. My mom is a Christian and not really a feminist.

So what’s the logic to the argument? As an atheist, I think the opposite. What on earth would the logic be to convince me that traditional values and conservatism are better? For the religious woman, it’s a much easier sell. The Bible (or whatever specific religious text and religious culture, institution that advocates this) says so. It’s god’s word.

I’ve tried to explain this before but a lot of guys here don’t want to hear it. They think it’s the other way around and/or are jealous and resentful that women can easily sleep with someone they’re not serious about but strategically withhold sex from a guy they actually care about. Getting that sex is the most important factor in all of this and many men here struggle to get sex at all it seems, which seems to amplify those feelings. shrug “Live and let die.”

I do think thats a huge part of it. There are a lot of men who aren't peak physical attractiveness who do well with sex and dating.

Men date hot women who aren't great people either or sleep with them. Men definitely overlook a lot of things to be with a hot girl, often. I don't think men have a monopoly on not tolerating bad behavior. The difference may just be access to sex, but when they get it, they don't often care about her bad behavior. I don't accept anyone blaming women for men's behavior, first. It's no woman's fault that some guy was an asshole to her. He's an asshole because that is who he is. Assholes often have…

They really think their scale is the objective standard when not even all men agree on that standard and women tend to be on a totally different scale or don't think in those terms. Women are also affected by social skills and other qualities that these men probably lack as well. That fucks their entire scale up and is why most of them have no hope until they change their perspective.

Theres very little logical consistency here. I'm convinced this is an issue of the angry ego wanting to find the conclusions it believes are right (the woe is me), at the expense of one's own happiness and finding better perspectives and solutions. Seems like a dark pit that only a therapist can attend to. Perspective accounts for so much. But a lot here are sexist gremlins, so I also don't care much.

I think one of the most basic rules in dating is dont obsess over people who don't want you. If you have no chance with her, move on. It's not really your place to be concerned with what she does to herself to become anything really, nor is it your place to tell someone they're overestimating themselves. That's rude af tbh and kind of shows some qualities in you that she should stay away from, in terms of a partner. If you're sitting there judging her as being below someone else, you definitely …

I honestly don't believe that's true in general. I think what's really happening is that they're sexually attracted to women that they are taught don't fit the idea of "hot girl." Women find men attractive all the time who aren't models, but we don't lie to ourselves and tell ourselves that we aren't attracted to him. If looking at someone got you hard and you wanted to fuck them, you're attracted to them. You might hate that you're attracted to women who "aren't hot" and want the trophy wife an…

Logic is on the side of it not being a lie. If we had a polygamous culture where it was acceptable, permissible for the wealthier and more popular men to marry multiple women, it would definitely spike women's expectations and openness to sharing those men and make them even less likely to settle for less. Plus lots of research shows that men benefit emotionally more from being in marriage than women do. I do facts and research, which support my conclusion.

Another myth, we're on a roll! Most sex workers don't consider their work a party. In fact, for many, it can be kind of traumatizing and emotionally, physically draining.
