nothing wrong with being single, specially considering how bad it is to get into relationships with women

I haven't read the article but judging from the tweet, it seems like they are blaming Men on being not able to meet standards of Women. As we all know this is completely bullshit. One of the main powers women have in their society is to validate behavior of Men with their sexual attention and this is why I think, Women have been perpetuating something they call toxic masculinity. "Healthy standards" In relationships. No serious sociologist or psychologist will believe that current relationship standards are in anyway healthy. Due to many women being groomed into feeling entitled for everything, Men have been pretty much commodified in the dating market, not to say there is no commodification of Women but I have seen that Men have made genuine attempts to decrease this commodification have basic human respect, while Hetrosexual women on the other hand have pretty much increased the shallow standards society has put on Men. Women also have perpetuated toxic Masculinity by sexually rewarding Men who abuse others, I am speaking from anectodes of course but throughout my life, it's pretty clear that a goon with some criminal status and power will always have more sexual success than a "healthy minded nice guy". I think it's pretty misandrist to still keep putting blame on Men and also as a society we should accept that Women can also be wrong and Shallow.

To the men here that question if a bunch of men being single is a bad thing, yes, yes it is. Society thrives when men and women cooperate, not combat one another.

As for the article, I'm aware they are trying to say that mens options are dwindling because of women's higher standards but when you actually think about it, it's because men are becoming more and more aware of low values behaviors in women that more men are staying single.

This isn't a good thing. If women actually were desirable again, maybe men would not walk away.

Do they really not realize there's as many single men as single women? Unless the women are part of some kind of harem arrangement.

The difference is men generally are cool with being alone. In fact some prefer it. But for women: just look at the statistics of single middle aged women and depression.
