I'm not the only one who has been sent and linked to that okcupid graph that "proves" women peak at 20 and men get more desirable with age. I always ignored it because I used to think they were just negging or misogynists, which is boring and not worth engaging. But now I just realized, omg, they genuinely don't know that it's an ad.
It comes in a lot of forms (graphs, articles, videos) but always traces back to okcupid. It's an article written by an owner who pulled data to show that while all the women were interested in men their own age, the older LVM were mostly shooting their shot with 20 year olds no matter how old they got. (I guess we're supposed to be shocked and scandalized, as though we don't know the type of older men on OLD). But anyway here's the (successful) intention of the ad: ladies, you better start panicking and hurry your fine ass over to okaycupid, the clock is ticking. You only have the power when you're 20. And men: spectacular news! As long as you're lonely, pathetic, perverted and over 30 you are 🔥, there are some great singles in your area who tooootally want you, for reeeaaal we promise. And we have a great service to offer you to match with them!
Lvm need a cope SO BADLY that they literally took that ad as "science" and embarrassingly circulated it around their communities for years and still are. Science that not only "proves" that old men are super hotties and grown women are icky, but men are the true relationship gatekeepers. Omg! Here we thought the entire reality around us was was true, /s. But all along it's actually MEN who hold the keys to dating. What a red pill to swallow! Bonus good news: "all men" are pedophiles. Which, what a relief, because therefore they individually are not unwell and creepy. it's "all men".
No matter how many scientifically illiterate pedos spread that ad the reality is this: women have the power in gatekeeping sex and relationships. Forever, at all ages.
And it's not news to us that a lot of men are sick, that most single old men are creepy delusional perverts. We all know about pedophiles. We know about creepy old men who gawk at us. But the audacity to try to spin it like those men are the catches and women expire? Ew. It's so worm brained. Don't let these suckers drag you into their clowndom.
