Interesting breakdown of the US gender ratio. From 2015, but still very accurate.

That 65 unmatched men out of 1000 singles in LA and the 26 unmatched men in NYC. How will a guy ever overcome those odds...?

Your first link goes to a lengthy forum post that makes a number of factual claims (e.g. gender ratios) with no supporting links. Between the word count and the dubious accuracy, that's too much of a commitment to ask -- do you have a TL;DR?

In USA, even the average slightly overweight woman has close to 1000 options any given time.

Your second link doesn't support this -- it mentions slight imbalances everywhere, but nothing like this. What's your basis for this claim?

Well if we want to go into a breakdown of dating quality women it gets far far worse. One third of women are obese and hence they may as well not exist. They don't even count at all. And another third of them are fats, so they are all down in the 1-2 / 10 range. And guys believe me I once tried to fuck one of them, when very drunk and in a nearly two month incel spell, it was horrible and possibly the most traumatic experience of my life. I just couldn't go through with it no matter how drunk I got. So this leaves only one third of all women who are even bangeable, much less desirable.

It's a good thing that most guys are fat lazy losers going nowhere or there might be some real competition for the rare not horrendously ugly women.

The difference is pretty small and does not account for a large number of men being effectively out of dating pool on account of such things as being in prison, deployed by the military, etc.

Also the numbers do not account for the fact that men tend to marry younger women. On average 5 years here. So you should actually compare for instance female 18-40 with male 23-45. Then I think you'll see the number are more favourable to the men.

The birth rate of men is higher, but it balances out around 25/30 year old because men's mortality is higher. There are more young men than young women, but there are more old women than old men.

What is very interesting here is when the range is set to 20 to 44 there's far more men in LA than women, but with the same range move up to 35 to 59 there's more women than men in LA but that NYC as far far more women than men. More interesting is there's being more single women on the eastern side of the US.

I get the feeling sometimes that there are far more men than women and this is part of the reason competition for low quality women is so fierce. I think the problem is even worse than what you see in those statistics.
