I am pretty much MGTOW. At 50+ years old, it's to be expected.

But I am around a bunch of younger women who, on the surface, are solid women. Not all women are gold-digging sluts. I mean, I am around tenants in my buildings, and my nieces, all of whom are about 20-35, without men, and pretty solid. They work, they may not keep a great home, but they work, and are doing what I would think they should do in this new world, given their circumstances.

You can't expect women to go back to being in the kitchen and the man comes home at 5:00 PM expecting his slippers and pipe. These women are emancipated, and can make their own decisions. I think this is great. IF you're man enough, you discuss the situation and they can come or go. No problem.

This is in the LA (Southern California) area, so EVERYONE has to be on point out here.

I'm talking about 10+ women total, without men, and they are, I assume, looking. A couple have made a bad(?) decision and are saddled with a kid or two. But they did it out of love. But the young ones, 20's, are just looking. And now they are trying to make it through this new world where they are supposed to have everything in hand, be strong, but not be a tinder slut.

I believe in hypergamy. But most people in general, women and men, are lucky to be about a 7-8, looking for a 7-8... Maybe a 9.

What do you tell the decent girls (7-8's) who are looking for a decent guy (7-8)?

This can happen...it happens everyday.
