What evidence is there to support that men are really struggling in dating?

The dating market is like the job market. If one side has it easy, then the other side must have it difficult.

For instance, earlier on in my life, I had few marketable skills so I had trouble getting a job and even when I got a job, my employer could treat me like shit and barely pay me because what options did I have? In the low-wage job market, employers hold all the cards and have all of the advantages because job seekers have none. Because it was easy for employers, it was hard for me.

Now? I've got marketable skills and could have another job for just as much money by tomorrow morning if I really wanted. So, my employer can't fuck with me because I'll leave, and they won't be able to fill my position and train someone very easily. It's easy for me, and bad for my employer.

The dating market isn't any different. Since a woman can have an unlimited number of dates or sex whenever she wants no matter how she looks, it therefore follows that the dating market must be the exact opposite for men, which it is.

Years ago i was hooking up with a girl I met through online dating. She was a cute, but pretty average girl.

She let me look at her messages. She had over 100 just from that day alone. And here I thought I was hot shit for hooking up with half a dozen girls off that app😯

Evidence:

Tinder data
OkCupid data
government stats showing the rate of young sexless males has shot up in the last 10-15 years

BlackPillers and others have made entire subs to document this evidence. I hate their philosophy and mindset, but some of that evidence is legit.

There are also anecdotal observations. For example when I look at my average-looking male and female friends in the same social group and SES, most of the males are SOL struggling very hard to get any dates while the women are constantly dating guys, rebounding, or getting asked out. If they want a date, they can find one easily. Of course the hot guys and hot girls have constant options and the ugly obese guys and girls are lonely, but the real disparity shows up for the average-looking people.

Really? Do you really not get how having hundreds of options is more advantageous than having almost none? How being constantly showered with attention and free stuff is easier than having to pursue through rejection while simultaneously developing confidence?

Some things are just self-evident, just like men not having periods being an advantage does not need substantiation.

Not all men struggle, but women of all levels of attractiveness have it much easier.

The hottest guy still can't get 'it' as easily as the least attractive of women (yes, that's true, they've run the experiments).

And the difference between the hottest guy and an average guy, while significant, is DWARVED in scope (I mean, seriously like geometrically) by the attention by the difference between the hottest guy and a HOT girl (not the hottest).

The recent Washington post article highlights it well. Or just go outside.

This post was made recently on r/dataisbeautiful where the OP broke down his Tinder activity.

Granted, he's a 53-year old male so it might not be appropriate to most of the actively dating here.

The game helps no one. It's bad for men and women alike.

All I see everywhere I look is sexually fulfilled and satisfied men. I mean what's the big deal? [Laugh track]

It's not bad for "men". Alphas have a great time still, probably better than ever since it seems more men have become more beta. I don't get why some men whine about this, it's like being angry that more people are getting fat. It's something you have complete control over yourself.

It is not that I struggle to date, it is that most women are not comfortable to date. They are either fat, less intelligent or quite crazy. Normal women are serious and not superficial

Not a shred. Men who complain of a dry dating market have personalities shallower than kiddy pools or hobbies less interesting than watching paint dry.
