60% of young men are not chronically single because they "lack emotional skills"

Nihi1986 · 2023-02-28T19:26:27+00:00

Obviously they aren't lacking much in personality compared to the men who are dating, this is just a lie to not admit other real factors which play a bigger role in dating success.

Anyway, to an extent there's some truth in that better emotional and social skills would help those men a lot in the dating market, provided they lowered their standard and went only for the lonely, emotionally starved women. It's also true that us men from pretty much all generations are relatively inmature/childish in a very broad meaning, but that's just a symptom and not the cause.

These kind of arguments are harmful, the last thing that ugly, poor and/or socially anxious men need to hear is that they aren't dating despite their reasonably low enough standards simply because they lack in 'personality'. Every single remotely decently attractive women out there has more than enough emotional support from many other sources, she doesn't need him and she can always friend zone him. These men aren't dating because they aren't handsome, rich or succesful enough to date within their assumed league and according to their standard, because as sallow as it sounds, there's a dating 'market' with supply and demand, and these men are in low demand due to factors mostly unrelated to their emotional skills.

I honestly can understand perfectly, as a not so young man with enough life experience, why this kind of articles and arguments are brought up. It's simply better than admitting how fucked up the economy is or how incredibly superficial we are becoming as a society, not to mention the ugly truths about human attraction.

IndifferentImp · 2023-02-28T17:41:56+00:00

I think the biggest issue is all of this takes such a significant portion of men who are all far better at communication/emotional intelligence than previous generations and blaming them for all these problems that weren't around in the past and totally leaving any role women play out in any of this. It's just crazy that women make up 50% of society but any larger societal issue are considered entirely the responsibility of men.

MetaCognitio · 2023-02-28T20:30:22+00:00

If women had to do the asking and courting with their general level of social skills, they’d be a bunch of 50 year old virgins. Many women think they are socially advanced because they have the deck stacked in their favor. Put them in the male role and they crumble immediately.

Communicating with someone else who comes from a different life perspective is hard. Men are putting in all of the effort to build bridges while a lot of women sit back and critique the choice of paint.

IntelligenceLtd · 2023-02-28T21:45:51+00:00

womens communication skills are diabolical and they often massively lack self awareness or are at least incredibly manipulative which explains there almost total lack of accountability

The numbers of lonely young men are simply too big to be blamed on shitty personality traits.

You don't have to be a shitty person to have a personality that turns women off. Being shy or just kind of boring doesn't make you a shitty person, but you're not going to have a lot of success dating either.

Every time I see phrases like emotional intelligence/skills everyone has completely different meanings for it.

In terms of processing their emotions and handling them properly I'd say men and women are equal in those fields. Least in America

Also the "childish and immature" article is blaming men for women purposely choosing to have kids later in life?

It's always self-projection.

Women are less emotionally skilled than ever. They're more socially stunted than ever, probably as a result of social media + society enforced social isolation + your job is your husband now. More narcissistic than ever.

So they go "oh we'll tell men it's their fault".

JumboJetz · 2023-02-28T23:46:56+00:00

The articles make no sense because - at least the Psychology Today article says in part the pandemic has made women turn towards academic and financial goals as opposed to relationships. But this makes no sense because the stats say that only 30% of young women are single vs. 60% of young men. So it isn’t remotely the case women are choosing singlehood and that’s resulting in more single men.

The only explanation is a lot of women dating older (I’m currently in a 10 year age gap relationship). Women are dating other women (unlikely as even the pew research study said LGBT was a tiny fraction of their sample size), or multiple women are dating the same men, or for some reason massively more women think they are dating someone when they aren’t.

YveisGrey · 2023-03-01T01:33:20+00:00

I kinda a disagree. I mean I def agree with you on personality not being the biggest problem but I also don’t think men solely relied on looks in the past yet they got women. The real problem is men are falling behind women, well young men that is. Young men aren’t doing well in terms of education or earnings compared to women. I believe more of them would be “picked” if they were. It’s interesting in these discussions college attendance rates aren’t talked about much. Imo it’s a huge factor because women actually have less options if they want to date even just their equal. Almost all college campuses have more women than men. Women don’t like to date down the guy has to be their equal or better if he’s not so in education/earnings than he will need to be in looks. Looks become more important to women when men have less of the other stuff to offer.

anonymousUser1SHIFT · 2023-02-28T18:18:43+00:00

the real reason: they are physically unattractive and dont act masculine enough.

Yozora1337 · 2023-03-01T07:26:57+00:00

Saying these men lack "personality" is gaslighting them to hell and back x100 times. The only thing women are attracted to is POWER in whatever shape or form that comes: muscles/dangerous/aggressive, looks, money/influence, "social skills"/manipulation.

MyLastBestChance · 2023-02-28T17:16:42+00:00

Women typically need to find potential partners attractive enough that we can imagine being physically intimate with them. That threshold varies from woman to woman and creates a “maybe”.

If that threshold isn’t met, it’s a “no”. A “no” cannot become a “maybe” or a “yes”. That’s a good thing. Would you really want romantic attention from a woman who couldn’t imagine ever being attracted to you?

Once that threshold is met, other characteristics come into play and can change that maybe into a “yes” or a “no”. Those characteristics also vary from woman to woman and are valued differently. Personality, integrity, intelligence, common interests, shared relationship goals, socioeconomic status, great arms, nice smile, etc.etc.etc.

If the balance of attributes is positive, it can be a “yes”, if negative it will be a “no”.

A “yes” doesn’t necessarily mean sex, it may just mean that it’s worth it to her to get to know him and possibly pursue a relationship.

So, in a way you are correct, but not in the way that you think. Looks is the first threshold but that threshold isn’t necessarily “Chad”, it’s much closer to “Can I imagine kissing him or would I be icked”. After that, attraction can grow or disappear based on everything else.

Caveat: this applies to relationships, not necessarily ONS / casual hookups where looks and initial charm / charisma weigh far more heavily because the other things (outside of obvious, supreme dickishness) are unlikely to really be known well enough to be a factor.

Ohmaygahh · 2023-02-28T20:45:05+00:00

This should change your mind:

The great majority of men are not socialized correctly in the most formative of years. It has a negative snowball effect later in life. There are debates that say that if you miss out on it, even if you try to revisit later in life and try to learn then, it will ALWAYS feel not natural.

Women select their sexual encounters with men for a long laundry list of reasons.

Bottom line, most women just find the great majority of men unattractive. That's it.

audiofoxthethird · 2023-03-01T09:45:01+00:00

I mean, maybe it is anecdotal, but I’ve personally never considered average or even slightly below average looks to be a deal breaker of any kind. I’m a six foot tall woman and have dated men much shorter than me with zero issues. I see that mostly as a projection men make to justify their own views of relationships with women. I promise you back when I was below average looking, as a woman, I was essentially invisible to men.

It’s not really a lack of experience that puts men in a corner, it’s a lack of self awareness. A lot of the time there is this pervasive concept that men have to fit a certain concept and be treated as if they deserve all the things that come with that concept which is an immensely unattractive thing to uphold in this day and age (well, actually always tbh).

FadedTony · 2023-02-28T22:06:07+00:00

All the women in my life think I'm funny, handsome, charming etc. but it hasn't translated to any success on dating apps unfortunately.

And there's no way my shy ass will approach a woman in public. So I think us introverted men w great qualities might be doomed. Dating/love is an unfair game so it's better to not dwell on it and just accept it.

But that's ok you don't need a relationship to find fulfillment. If you have a great support system (family, friends, therapist etc), decent/great career, good health and hobbies then you're already so blessed in many ways. And if you don't then that should be your main focus imo.

despisedlove2 · 2023-02-28T17:09:52+00:00

Why should you care what lies they tell themselves? Psychology as a profession is female-oriented. According to the latest APA recommendations, traditional masculine personality features like stoicism, silence, etc are all "toxic".

The only contact most men have with a psychologist is the mandatory counseling they are forced to undergo prior to a recreational divorce. That is done because without his presence, the legal system would find it harder to rob him on behalf of his ex wife.

Sensible men stay far away from relationships, and psychologists.

I'm not trying to be a jerk, but what everyone needs to understand is that women dictate the laws of nature. What they say and think in regards to who reproduces is always right because what they say makes it right. Even when women are wrong for rejecting someone decent they're right.

anonymousUser1SHIFT · 2023-02-28T22:52:59+00:00

It's really funny because almost everytime I hear women talking about men not being emotionally intelligent enough or emotionally mature. I just think of all the bat shit emotionally unhinged crap a lot of women do an get away with.

A woman complaining about a man not being not emotional intelligent enough can mean one of three things. 1. The guy doesn't know how to deal with his emotions and takes it out on other people. 2. The woman doesn't know how to deal with her emotions and expect the guy to be able to do it for her, and obviously he can't. 3. The guy is actually knows and understands his emotions and know how to express and commutate them. However the woman expects the man to present his emotions in a way that she likes and understands, so she doesn't understand how to interpret his presentation of his emotions. Then blames him for not being emotionally intelligent enough...

"Personality" is such a loose term that has been so overused that it means nothing. Everyone has a personality, no one has more or less personality than anyone else unless they're quite literally braindead.

The question is what kind of personality. A guy who doesn't talk much or make jokes or is "suave" still has personality, he just is interested in other things, and is just introverted.

And people who focus on the false idea that you can have a "bigger personality" are often manipulate.

psd5 · 2023-03-01T02:43:46+00:00

as a 32 years old virgin, loveless, kissless, hugless, not ever complimented guy ever, i can say that emotional sklls are or cannot be the only reason why you cannot succeed as a man.

Most of the women I have ever seen in this life, set up a good amount of requirements (maybe female entitlement or being delusional-picky because the options they most of the time have to select from) in order to be actually desirable by them.

I'm a naturally deconstructed guy, aka the type of guy that does not represent this classic stereotype of strong-extroverted-charismatic type of guy that persues sex and chronically compliments female-egos in order to achieve their desire and so then,sex and love from females.

I most of my life tried to be correct, polite, not a sexual harasser, never insulting or damaging women, not even simping at all. Yet, they still prefered to sleep or showcase desire for those that were extroverted-charismatic or money that was giften for free to them.

I didn't even mention sex at all like most of school peers were talking about, most of the time between them and women could hear of plenty of times since secondary school, which to an extent can showcase intelligence and emotional control, but i do not want to be tagged like that but just to showcase the point.

Yet, I was still the less experienced person in sexual and romantic success between like the 98% or 99% of people that I have ever known of or interacted with in my life, ever. I'm still a virgin unexperienced guy in 32 years old.

My point is, women in general tend to set-up a very delusional set of requirements upon men, besides they themselves reward those that lack of several more "good values", "intelligence", "social skills" than a person that never went into any troubles or fights or cared about their feelings-struggles.

Conclusion is, you cannot set up a guy with a naive excuse like: "you need to work out" or "its your personality"... Ladies out there, you need to realize that the requirements you set up on men as potential sexual-romantic partners is delusional and unjustified. But I also admit that, most of this behavior is social conditioning and is caused because you get so much offer FOR FREE from men themselves, even if they are low or high quality type of men.

Scarce12 · 2023-02-28T18:12:45+00:00

I wouldn’t necessarily say their personalities are “shitty.” Just regular. Average. Not unique. When I see women complain about men’s personalities it’s not necessarily that they’re bad. It’s moreso that they don’t stand out from the next guy. They do and say the same things most other guys do and say. They even dress alike, have the same hairstyles, etc.

RocinanteCoffee · 2023-02-28T21:05:16+00:00

Women get to be pickier than ever, but they are not picking personality

What you call 'picky' is just consent. Nobody can help who they are attracted to.

Nobody should force themselves to date someone they're not interested out of some warped sense of obligation or virtue-signaling. It creates a bad relationship for all involved, full of resentment and doubt.

Weary-Ad-3084 · 2023-02-28T23:28:32+00:00

It is a combination of the following factors. Please let me know what you think by responding to my thoughts.

Note that I am being truthful here:

Women in the younger age bracket (20-29) date older men in their 30s. Its common for 27 year old women to seek 33 year old men for instance. This is because older men have their "shit together" and are more financially stable/suitable for marriage (beta provider). On the other hand, younger men have limited work experience and low savings/low capital and cannot afford buying homes and cars, or even more expensive rent. I am 23 years old and I am aggressively saving and investing away so that by the time I am in my early 30s, I become financially independent. This is why women stay away from dating men in their early 20s.

Women dating other women (lesbian or bisexual) or spending the vast majority of time with female friends and thus not needing men at all for companionship or romance

Women getting casual sex from "Chad" in their early to mid 20s. Incels call this (misogynistically) "riding the cock carousel". They have a point that any woman (90% of women in fact) can very easily get "casual sex" through Tinder or any other hookup app with a man in the "top 10%" (your stereotypically tall muscular Chad). These women have zero need for looking for an LTR or if they are looking for an LTR they want one with a man in the top 10% or the top 20% of height or looks ignoring most of the male population while they are in their 20s.

Polyamory in the 20s before seeking long term commitment from a single man in their 30s - once again tying into Point 3, its common for Chad to hookup with multiple girls at the same time. These girls think that they all have a chance with a single guy to form a long term relationship that will ultimately lead to marriage, but this never actually happens because there are too few "Chads" to go around.

Overall, it is a combination of women having really high standards for men, both in physical terms (height, looks) and financial terms (does he make enough money) and sometimes in maturity terms (women think younger men are childish and immature in some cases). Call it "hypergamy" or whatever you call it, but it is basic nature to seek out the best.

I'm merely telling the truth. This is why many young men are single and lonely in their 20s. Personality is a joke and if you don't meet a woman's height cutoff or looks threshold or financial resources, it's over.

AllStickNoCarrot · 2023-03-03T23:57:17+00:00

I think a lot of people are single because they try too hard for sex or a relationship. They create a dependency on it in their mind and think they can't be happy without it. Once they've linked their happiness to this idea then they either get all mopy and upset when they "do all the right things" but no sex/relationship happens, or they try to rebel against it and convince themselves they're above needing men/women and will then jab at the opposite sex to prove it.

Anyone can be happy without sex or a relationship, and it doesn't require making anyone else feel bad.

Besides emotional skills men have to do all the real work in the relationship (initiate everything).

I myself struggle with escalating sexually without feeling like it can be rude or risky for some reason.. Not only was I not thrilled about likely rejection, but potentially losing my life due to harassment is difficult to easily get around when you’re risk averse.

But no woman will ever help me with this even if they also want sex (I know I’ve fumbled these situations in the past).

I was raised to never turn a woman on basically in the feminized west until I found outside info.

AceArguments · 2023-02-28T17:32:39+00:00

It literally says in your article one of the biggest reasons that women are not getting into relationships in a mismatch in values.

It’s not surprising then that a 2012 Pew Research study found, in a reversal of traditional gender roles, that while two-thirds of millennial women say that “being successful in a high-paying career or profession” is of high importance to them, only 59 percent of young men do. At the same time, a significantly larger number of young women than men say that a successful marriage is “one of the most important things in life.” Almost 60 percent of women rate successful parenting as one of the most important parts of life, while only 47 percent of young men do, according to Pew.

That has nothing to do with personality or looks. Those are judgements of values. If there are not enough men that value being successful in a high-paying career or profession and not enough men valuing successful marriages, then women are not going to choose any guy that comes along.

You're right. Those women are not picking personality. But your conclusion is off. They're not picking looks either. I don't know why there's only two options here when there's more to the picture.

These women are picking values. And quite frankly, there's not enough men that value a successful marriage enough for women to feel assured that she's found her forever man that won't cheat on her or do a shit job in the marriage. If she's putting in her best, she wants her partner to be putting in her best.

I agree that they're missing the mark, but I'd also say your substitute isn't any closer. It's so much more complicated than just one primary factor. It's a whole bunch of factors ultimately weighed against the decreasing value of relationships in society, particularly to women.

Flightlessbirbz · 2023-03-01T12:37:09+00:00

60% of young men are single because a) young women tend to date their age or up to five years older, but almost never any younger, b) women no longer need to put up with men to survive or thrive, and c) people’s social skills in general have gotten bad, and there are a lot fewer opportunities to meet people in person and foster real connections nowadays. That last one is big.

Of course looks matter, but since it’s unlikely men are any uglier now than in the past, that’s not going to account for any changes in dating habits, or why younger men in particular are struggling.

No. Most men, if they improve their social skills, end up getting more women. I don’t have research to back that up, but it’s just an observable truth.

Most men do have the looks to get their foot in the door. The epidemic of sexlessness has much more to do with lack of courage and lack of technique than anything else. The bottom 10% of men maybe are hopeless due to looks, but not much more than that.

Yes, they cant get those when women refuse to date them.

I dont see what evidence your article provides to back up that claim

"men struggle because they are childish and immature"

Your article cites various metrics that women are usually 5-10% better than men in. I dont see how a 5-10% gap proves that men are childish.

I would write my opinion but the mods would delete it because it's not bluepilled enough.

Looks help but I was getting women when I had chipped teeth and 37 pounds overweight. Game is key

men are not beating down the door to date a woman who is ugly and fat so idk why you guys expect us to date ugly men and try to justify it by saying "men are lonely" ....tough shit....y'all gotta figure it out on your own...either lower your standards and be more realistic about your options or learn how to make yourself more attractive to women...

How big ARE the numbers of lonely young men? Last time i checked, 50% of young single men are single by choice.

men struggle because they are childish and immature

No, women who can't attract the men they want to have as baby daddies struggle and blame "childish men" for their issues. On both sides, the rejected paint the picture of the other gender being the problem, while it's actually THEM PERSONALLY. Just like with you. Your autism is the reason you are single, not women and their demands for attractive men.

Why is it news that you have to be attractive to get the opportunity for romantic/sexual relationships? This is also true for women. Only a man would ever act like this is some sort of huge revelation. That's a pre-requisite.

The other stuff is why they're chronically single as well. If you aren't attractive, you won't get a shot.

If you aren't good at communication, lack relationship skills, lack emotional intelligence, lack intimacy skills, you will blow the shot and remain sexless and/or single.

Both are necessary. Both are correct answers for why men are single and unfucked. This is a multiple choice test.

If you want an equivalent, you need gas in a car to even think about going somewhere (attraction) and you have to know how to drive to even get there without crashing and burning (emotional intelligence and the other stuff I mentioned above).

Men who focus on the fact there's no gas in the car so obviously this means the other stuff isn't the problem are only diagnosing the first issue. Even if they got gas in the car, they'd still crash and burn because they do not know how to drive. Some guys already have gas in the car and don't know how to drive so they're crashing and burning.
