One of the biggest pieces of advice people tend to throw out is to try to find someone who shares similar hobbies and obviously it’s no secret that many of the hobbies men and women have are usually skewed to one gender or another, so if a woman were to have a hobby with a higher percentage of men, that would make her automatically very desirable for the men who engage with that hobby, therefore causing her to near exclusively only consider a smaller more desirable portion of men who participate in said hobby. (Important to note that hobbies that involve individual forms of media like movies, shows, gaming, reading etc. still have gender-skewed genres which is still applicable.)

Now this could, in some cases, work in reverse but for the most part, 1. There are far fewer men that participate in hobbies with a higher percentage of women (at least genuinely). And 2. Having a similar hobby for a man is merely a drop in a bathtub of what men need to be to meet most women’s standards.

And yes, obviously you don’t NEED the same hobbies to make a relationship work, and yes you can get into hobbies with a partner together but this is about the “find someone with similar hobbies.” Advice.

So I guess if you take anything away from this post, if you are a woman and struggle getting a serious partner, if you can, get into a male-dominated hobby, it will make you very desirable by default.
