CMV :Men wouldnt behave much different than women under the same dating conditions. Most behaviors are determined by one's options

You really need to refine your argument. At some point, yes, if men had all the circumstances and traits of women, they would behave like women. But then they would also BE women. It's a tautology.

But yes, there is evidence that leverage and options impact selectivity. So does whether one is forced into the initiating or receptive role. That said, there is more to greater female selectivity than just greater sexual leverage and options. Primarily, you are forgetting the opt out option. Women are much more likely to just opt out than pick their least bad option in partners. This is basically the core definition of greater sexual selectivity.

Men with options behave vastly different than women with options. It's why some men have ridiculously high n counts - biologically they don't have to worry about pregnancy so evolutionarily they have no reason not to try to have as many sexual partners in possible. The Coolidge Effect exists in human men as well as in many animals that shows that men are aroused by novel partners.

If women had the same dating conditions as men and vice versa, the vitriol coming from women would probably be worse. Even under much more favorable dating conditions you get women venting completely oblivious that their dating life is insanely privileged compared to the average guy.

Your own behaviour isn't representative of mlm in general. There's also bi dudes who don't bother trying to fuck women anymore because it's too hard. It depends on the person and their character.

Your perspective is very interesting. At the same time I think is also kinda obvious. In places when I'm the only guy, with no competition in sight I act like a diva too lol.

The male homosexual and female heterosexual dating scenes are quite differently despite both having the same benefit of having lots of options. There are cultural and biological differences that don't just disappear when more options are presented to men.

In any case I don't think either group (male homosexuals or female heterosexuals) are especially healthy or in good shape, so I don't get much out of this argument.

Interestingly all my most successful tactics were actually stolen from women. They are just masters at it, but once you steal their game and use it against them, they are basically powerless. They don't have another game.

Exactly, if men had a ton of options, they wouldn’t pay any attention to average of below average women whatsoever… they would only prioritize the hot women… you see this theme play out with rich men, no matter how old or ugly they are, as long as they have a shit ton of money, you’ll see them pulling super models lol… men are only as loyal as their options permit them to be… if every average man that complains about dating were to win the lottery tomorrow, you’d only see them pursuing hot women… they would quite literally do the very same thing that women do, so stop complaining about “hypErGaMY”…

Hi OP,

You've chosen to identify your thread as a CMV. As such you are expected to actively engage in your own thread with a mind open to being changed. PPD has guidelines for what that involves.

OPs author must genuinely hold the position and you must be open to having your view challenged.

An unwillingness to have your view challenged may be inferred from one or several of the following:

Asking few or no genuine questions;

Seeming more interested in arguing or convincing others than understanding opposing views;

Ignoring the main point of a comment, especially to point out some minor inconsistency;

Refusing to make concessions that an alternate view has merit;

Focusing only on the weaker arguments;

Explicit statements of an intent to change the other posters’ minds; or

Only having discussions with users who agree with your position.

Failure to keep to this higher standard (we only apply to CMV OPs) may result in deletion of the whole thread.

Interesting take op

Do you have a preference ?

Ohmaygahh · 2023-05-10T18:23:11+00:00

Some are faking the vibe only to fuck while having no respect for me.

Can you please define what "having respect for you" looks like?

Men just have a higher desire for sex. More desire more demand and more supply, so you start looking for quality.

Women have a lower desire for sex. Less desire more demand but less supply, so you have to adapt and go for quantity in oder to have any chance to get sex.

It's as easy as that. This concept alone makes the majority of the reasons. Of course there is also fewer risks etc but that's nowhere close to make that difference on its own.
