Something I've noticed is that with the rise of feminism, less and less men are in relationships. In the past, it seemed like every guy had a wife. You never heard of 30 year old permavirgins.

All of that seemed to change with the rise of feminism. Every straight guy I've talked to seems to struggle with dating in some capacity.

First and foremost, women's standards have increased drastically. in the past, women would just marry some guy from her village/town/whatever. Nowadays, they have BILLIONS of men to choose from. It's no longer about choosing a guy in spite of his flaws, but choosing a guy WITHOUT any flaws.

Second, most men are too afraid to approach women. In the past, men would buy women flowers and try to woo them. Nowadays, you can't even say hi to a woman on the street without being called a "creep" accused of harassment. How tf are you supposed to meet women anymore? You can't approach them on the street, you can't approach them at the gym, you can't approach them at the library, you can't approach them ANYWHERE. Unless you're crazy attractive, most women will display a "get away from me!" attitude towards you. The only way left is through online dating, and we all know how well that goes for men. It's almost as if men are being forced into a system where women have all the power.

Last, but not least, modern women aren't even worth dating. I'm probably going to get some flack for this, but it's honestly true at this point. So many men are no longer bothering with dating and are instead choosing to focus on themselves, simply because it's not worth it anymore. As a whole, modern women have been raised by feminism to hate and fear men. I don't think I've ever met an old woman who was as loud, abrasive, and generally unpleasant to be around as the women from my generation. Modern women always ask what we have to offer but never wonder what THEY have to offer.

Feminism has completely ruined dating. It's conditioned women to no longer view human beings. I don't want to play the part of dancing monkey, bending over backwards just to impress some woman just so she can use me for a free meal, ghost me and then make a post on the TwoX subreddit about how many "red flags" I had.
