"Mother and grandmother told me to be a nice man who buys flowers and is attentive and understanding. They never said be a 6 foot lantern jawed local celebrity who treats girls as disposable..."

Firstly, 2022. Women, especially sub 25 years of age, make it VERY clear left right and centre that they want tall hot guys. There is also way more cultural awareness and memes about simping being a bad thing. The girls you're after are letting you know every day what they want.

Secondly, WHY get so hung up and angry about the fact that women havent always been so transparent? Like, dude, NOW you know the truth...so get over it....and even if women do still say "I want a nice guy who does this and that and values this and..."...youve gotta use common sense and realize they mean have a good personality AND be hot, right?

Imagine you're at a dinner party with family or friends and the group is relatively mature etc, not the kinda people you can talk about tits with etc, the kinda people you wanna make a good impression for....if they ask you what youre looking for in a girl you dont say tits and ass...you say funny, intelligent, good mother, ambitious etc....BUT you OBVIOUSLY want tits and ass too, you just leave it out.

I feel its common sense, and the frustration is pointless. OR is the "lie" more encompassing than that?
