Hypergamy Meets Reality

Evolutionarily, women are hardwired for hypergamy: they prefer partners who are superior to them in status, resources, income, dominance, and social rank. This preference evolved because it maximized the survival chances and reproductive success of their offspring.

In modern Western societies, this ancient strategy collides brutally with reality. Women now significantly outperform men in educational attainment and often in early-career earnings. As a result, the pool of men who meet hypergamous standards has shrunk dramatically.

Successful young women nevertheless still want a man who stands above them — financially, socially, and in terms of ambition and dominance. Average or underachieving men become invisible or openly despised. This produces the all-too-familiar frustration: “Where have all the good men gone?” — while the vast majority of available men are systematically rejected.

When a woman does manage to attract a genuinely high-value, high-status man, she encounters the harsh truth: he now has the abundance of options. Many such men actively avoid long-term commitment and instead enjoy their positional advantage.

The resulting disappointment and rejection are then frequently taken out on the “weaker” men in her environment — the very ones she had already dismissed as not good enough.

Many women remain trapped in this destructive spiral for life:overinflated expectations → rejection of the majority → frustration → even stronger idealization of the few winners → repeated disappointments → growing contempt for the rest of men.

Core truth: Hypergamy works effectively only in environments with clear status hierarchies and limited female resources — the very conditions often labeled “patriarchy.” In a world where women equal or surpass men educationally and economically, the same biological drive generates widespread female dissatisfaction, chronic singledom, resentment toward men as a group, and collapsing marriage and birth rates.

Biology does not negotiate with modern ideology.

Women hate men because misandry is normalized. Women are being radicalized by feminists revisionist history and a completely unhinged view of the world that isn't actually rooted in reality. Women a hundred years ago, at time where women were supposedly oppressed, did not hate men the way women hate men today.

What's even more ironic though, is that so much of his misandry and radicalization happens because men stay silent and complacent, even as they are being labelled oppressors and tyrants. For all this non-sense talk of patriarchy, it's insane to me how much abuse men actually put up with from women. It is complete cognitive dissonance. There is no patriarchy if men are just doing whatever women want them to. There never was a patriarchy, just women imposing gender roles on men, and to take on the roles of their fathers so that they could avoid making uncomfortable efforts or taking on responsibilities and hardships of life.

Why did 1930s Germans hate Jews? Propaganda!

Nah they hate ugly men, average looking men. If you're very good looking and rich, they can't stop their biology, they will love you. If you're very good looking and make a erage income, they still like you. They hate men that are in the center of the bell curve. The average men. Fat pot belly, unattractive face, low income ugly men who can't dress. That's who they hate.

The New statesman is a left wing Labour feminist publication.

Feminists and male haters like the Labour party in Britain have killed society.

No way back. Sit back and watch society collapse.

Because they're indoctrinated by feminism and misandry.

The end. You're welcome.

There is a ubiquitous propaganda machine in the west, entertainment, media, and even education to constantly convince women that men are the source of all their problems and that women should hate them. Women, who are more susceptible to propaganda anyway, have simply responded as expected.

They want a man who is above them, but demand in "equality". Satisfaction is therefore impossible and, somehow, this is your fault!
