Where have all the good women gone? Men fight back with a vengeance against the women who SLAMMED chaps today as boring, grumpy slobs

Women will take a more positive approach while men, after a couple of knock-backs, will shrivel up. They are easily disillusioned; women are better at brushing themselves off.

Yep. Let's do a little role reversal:

"Well, she's taken me to dinners and places I like to go. Spent a little money. She was on, trying to impress me. Always concerned with whether or not I was enjoying myself. Put a lot of effort in. Me, I just had to look presentable and show up. Wonder why she's discouraged that it didn't work out. Me, I'm getting back out there.... Dinner and dancing don't just grow on trees, you know."

There were some flaws from the "experts", but otherwise a decent article which didn't conflate MGTOW with TRP.

Progress!

The interviews with the men sounded remarkably familiar. You hear those sentiments quite often when talking to the more mature MGTOWs.

I'm starting to wonder if there shouldn't be a depression warning for these sorts of articles lol, holy fuck, I could totally understand difficulties for men in their 50's and so on because you have a lot of feminists around that age group in their 40's and so on who are desperate and manipulative. However reading about the sheer problems faced by men in their 20's and 30's makes me glad I'm single and I'd actually quite like to have a girlfriend, it just isn't worth it anymore is it?

While women — now so independent in outlook and behaviour — are much less worried than male counterparts about finding a new long-term partner, men are more likely to have come from a relationship they’d rather have kept.

I can't believe this is actual advice and commentary coming from an accredited therapist, no, women are not 'independent' they are the same as ever and so are men. Women reach their 30's and 40's and immediately become clingy and desperate for any stable man they can get their hands on or they end up being single and alone with frozen eggs because they're so picky and refuse to date 'below their station'.

The funny thing is the article itself unwittingly debunks most of the commentary from the psycho therapists just by these men talking about their experiences.

Trelawney Kerrigan, a consultant for the Dating Agency Association, says: ‘Women will take a more positive approach while men, after a couple of knock-backs, will shrivel up. They are easily disillusioned; women are better at brushing themselves off.

It's so close... but still so far. She is right that men stop trying... but they're not "shriveling up", they are doing the calculations and coming to the realization that this is the way things are...while women are more then willing to keep on trying to find Mr. Right... because prince charming will come along any time....

Men, however, like the stability of a home life provided for them, their creature comforts, and often don’t know how they’re going to manage except by going into another relationship.

Really now? The interviewed men in the article seem to be doing rather okay on their own. Much to the author's dismay.

‘Yes, I’m a struggling actor. But she wasn’t well off, either. She was an au pair. She was just looking for a wealthy husband.

Well, chum, what did you think? She'd seek-out someone with a similar socioeconomic level?

‘Things were great at first, but when our daughter was born in 2014, it felt to me like my wife didn’t want me any more. We divorced in 2015.

It's so easy, everyone's doing it.

Feminist speak: 'Grumpy'.

Meaning: 'Disagrees with me'.

As a single, never-married man in my early 50's, I can certainly attest that women in my age cohort are a sorry bunch. Inevitably they are bitter about failed relationships/marriages, single moms/grandmoms, overweight, in poor financial shape and have mastered the art of fucking their lives up. From my experience, the got-it-together single middle age woman who is a great catch simply does not exist.

I have long since stopped bothering with women for anything. I am an avowed MGTOW and regardless of what women think, I have a great life and would not change it for the world.
