If women/feminists are the reason dating is so difficult, why are gay men also struggling with dating?

That two groups are having trouble dating does not at all mean that they are having trouble dating for the same reasons.

Comparing the struggles of heterosexual relationships which have been widely accepted for all of human history to the struggles of homosexual relationships which she still scrutinized and discriminated against to this very day is extremely tone deaf.

I’ve only known and been friends with gay guys that were clearly above average looking. They say they get lots of sex, but struggled to find a relationship. I asked why, they said a good guy is hard to find. Gay men probably have a lot of expectations of a relationship I would assume.

2 of the guys went after “straight” men who were already in relationships with women, that seemed like their favorite hookup. I’m not sure gay guys in general have a relationship at their highest priority as well.

First, it’s completely different problems. Gay man who are having trouble with dating are able to date able to get sex, but not able to get adequate partners for commitment. That’s not at all at the level of men who can’t get any women to give them a chance.

Most women don’t like most men and unfortunately feminism allows them to ignore good men for the tall, hot, exciting guy, but then they get mad he only wants sex from them. When there are plenty of great men out there but they want the hot exciting guy who has options and no interest in committing to commit to them. Feminism dilutes women into thinking that if they become more successful, they deserve a better man when the more successful and older they get the less they can demand from a man. But this is bad for everyone because we need each other and giving women the option to hold out is in the long run bad for families.

A key part of the problem is the women who keep chasing the exciting guy. They might’ve been good at the start if they had just committed to a good guy, but they become damaged and traumatized. Same thing for good men where if a woman had just committed when she was younger, that would’ve been a great guy, he becomes damaged as well while they are holding out.

Where are the gay inexperienced virgins?

There's a few from bi men who say straight dating is actually easier than gay dating.

Okay but those are the guys who were desirable enough to actively date women. A bi guy who can't actively date women would not come to the same conclusion.

Pew research found 62% of gay men are single, pretty closely mirroring the statistics that are thrown around for straight men.

A higher proportion of that percentage is single by choice.

Because there is an identity crisis as to what it means to be a man in the current cultural landscape.
