A very controversial, possibly triggering question: Is a big percentage of women in their early 20s today lazy?

No honestly not from my opinion. The girls I’m friends with and hangout with the most are all very smart. Hard working, they usually have a job and still go to college. My guy friends are definitely slacking compared to them and that’s if I compare most of my guy friends to girl friends we are losing. I don’t blame it on laziness though the few girls that people from the outside would see as “lazy” are just a little depressed and need a lil help or time. It explains me being the same way and a few of my guy friends who I thought were lazy til I felt the same way about myself

mjornir · 2022-10-01T13:30:33+00:00

I think this applies to both men and women. Most people in general really don’t have much ambition

I honestly believe that younger women who believe they are particularly attractive genuinely think they can marry someone like yourself and be a mooch. Only thing the contribute might be their "beauty" which is guaranteed... To fade.

Dorsiflexionkey · 2022-10-01T14:26:33+00:00

Short answer: maybe, but so is everybody.

First off, you're very productive for a 22 year old. Let that sink in. Not to be mean but you sound like you're making a brag paragraph. Most 20 somethings are NOT in college. Most just work normal jobs and live normal lives. There's nothing wrong with that too. Because i'm in college doing engineering most women I meet are disciplined and smart as hell, but you have to remember these are the top tier people in society. These people come from good families, have stable lives and were motivated to do these things. You probably came form the same background too, and if you didn't you probably have the drive from being so broke you had to do something with your situation, my point is that it requires some pretty specific conditions to do what you do.

As for the laziness, yeah most people are lazy not just 20 somethings too. My guy mates are lazy as shit. Look at the epidemic of incels, some of these guys are truly unfortunate but alot of these guys are just misguided men who need some direction and a few years of hard work. Most females are lazy too, same issue but with the luck that they're not social aggressors so they're usually offered things from men, meaning that don't have as much incentive as men to want to work hard. (in a general and dating sense).

tldr: yeah most people are lazy.

I guess women are less eager to take risks and go against the mainstream. They have much less struggle with finding a partner, society is kinda protective towards them. I think it stems from biological and psychological predispositions that were developed over the big years of our civilisation system, but it may change with the shift of climate and rules.

Delicious_Ad_1853 · 2022-10-01T14:01:12+00:00

People are people, man. Theres a mix of everything in any group.

Any time you find yourself looking down on a large group of people, the problem is probably with you, not them.

bjjkaril1 · 2022-10-01T15:18:13+00:00

So I make a lot of money for my age (mid 6 figs and I'm 24) and run two businesses. I bust my ass to build a better future. I do help my current gf out and do tend to pay for things we do. But whats annoying is my current gf works part time, stresses out about that, then watches netflix and smokes weed a majority of the time. Will very rarely help me out with anything and when she does she does it super pissy. I'm considering breaking up and waiting till I'm 30-32 to find a woman whose mature.

bytheninedivines · 2022-10-01T16:21:43+00:00

I'm an engineering student, and I've noticed that every girl I've dated has just tried to leech of my success. They've had no goals and no passions.

garlopf · 2022-10-01T09:04:57+00:00

I have the same impression tbh. But we are likely experiencing some variation of observer bias; we only see the lazy ones because the ones that are not lazy are busy with stuff

2022-10-01T13:19:06+00:00

It's normal, they don't have a lot of testosterone and they are not interested in conquering the world.

blagaa · 2022-10-01T15:29:21+00:00

There are plenty of people of both sexes that fit what you're describing, it's not uncommon.

A lot of people that age haven't had to be self-sufficient and have been subsidized by their families/student loans. It's easier than ever to coast to that age and life is more convenient/abundant than ever.

You seem to be more focused than most at an earlier age, and like attracts like. Life is generally cumulative, after 4 years of young adulthood the signs of differing trajectories (if they weren't apparent before) are now impossible to ignore. So it's not surprising you are seeing this contrast starkly, but it's not a new phenomenon.

ellakstone · 2022-10-01T16:38:59+00:00

Early 20s living in the dorm with very motivated and hardworking women. Thinking you just got the wrong group.

clone0112 · 2022-10-01T13:22:35+00:00

Sounds pretty typical for people in their early 20's. To put it into perspective many people are just finishing college at 22.

Canadian-Seductioner · 2022-10-01T14:29:54+00:00

Early 20s is still young bro, our brains don't fully develop until 25.

NoFap_FV · 2022-10-01T14:58:56+00:00

80% of the population do that, if you sit 10 people on a table and ask them questions and read through the BS you can for sure see that only 2/3 will be the description you look for

Curia-DD · 2022-10-01T15:33:01+00:00

I have a job and I work out regularly so how does that make me lazy

2022-10-01T15:54:36+00:00

Well, if youre around super high achieving guys that is going to mess up your ability to judge the situation. Almost everyone (male and female) is going to be significantly more lazy than you and your friends. Women are less conscientious than men on average, but they also perform better at work and school so its a tough question to answer.

Professional_Ad_78 · 2022-10-01T15:55:21+00:00

I’m surprised by how many girls are on Only Fans. Seems like many girls would rather show their naked bodies for small change, than to pursue difficult careers.

With that said, statistics don’t lie - there are 6 women to 4 men that are earning college degrees, and that gap is growing every year.

We’re heading towards a fem-centric society, which means a strange balance of more women getting better opportunities, but also a lot of women that are lazy and have huge entitlements.

2022-10-01T16:43:53+00:00

Yes and see it all the time. Not sure where you are located but American women are super lazy but also have the highest standards while offering nothing to the table.

This is something I have noticed with the TikTok generation in particular: they consume all day, waste time mindlessly on social media, don’t have much to offer in a relationship, think thicc is in shape, have very few life goals if any, and have extremely high expectations for men they want but can’t find because those men are less than the 1% for their bracket.

So be careful when you date not to attract lazy women who will only be a detriment to your life and mission/goals. If you find someone who aligns with your mission, that’s great and definitely pursue it.

That’s my take from what I’ve noticed with multiple LTRs and dating around in the gen z pool

notLOL · 2022-10-01T14:16:11+00:00

Depends on your circle. I work in tech and younger women are more accomplished than me. I'm more lucky than hard working

The stats on college is that enrollment and graduation is leaning towards women and decrease in men recent years especially since pandemic situation increasing the pay of blue collar work it's siphoned off men in academia.

Might be different kind of hard work.

Maybe switch up your scene. You might just be finding girls who just date around as their hobby

Shox187 · 2022-10-01T12:53:19+00:00

Yes absolutely agree with you OP, especially girls in Sydney, Australia.

RockyLeal · 2022-10-01T13:40:06+00:00

Hey mods, what's up with all the incel content being posted lately. This kind of shit is poison and basically in total contradiction of what makes this subreddit cool

2022-10-01T15:07:46+00:00

This applies just as much to men as it does young women, I don't think it's about gender.

No-Emotion-7053 · 2022-10-01T15:44:30+00:00

80% of Gen X dream job is to be an influencer, so that says a lot lol

ozzzy83 · 2022-10-01T17:56:39+00:00

You are right, I've noticed it too. Yet they expect to find a rich men according to them, yet when they are over 26, their criteria starts to drop. And they often remain the same, even at 30, party girls with no big goals. Just being bored and lazy whole day, and most of the time spending on social networks, photoshopping one picture for three hours cause they are so insecure.

OzarkWolf · 2022-10-01T14:01:07+00:00

No they aren't lazy ..they are making do with what they have in today's society..some may appear lazy but they get by and however they do that takes the strength that most of us men do not have..women work around what they have and the situation. Men just hit their heads on a brick wall because it's there and they try to force their way through..the only time hitting your head on wall feels good is when you quit

RedditsOlderBrah · 2022-10-01T08:52:52+00:00

it's unambiguous fact that women are exceeding men in education and qualifications. i don't think that's easy.

I am 22 years old, own a freelance business and my close friends are either master degree students, have upper level jobs or work in their family businesses.

when i was 22 i nearly died when i was thrown off the roof of a bar i was bouncing at and i slept on a friend's couch.

No vision, no goals, no interests that spark up their eyes when they talk about them. If they don't have lessons that day, they spend their day in bed till 2pm and then maaaaybe wake up and do something for an hour or two before they either go back to watch Netflix or go to a cafe with their friend.

this is very likely some form of mental illness which, yes, is running rampant in the younger generation.

What do you guys think?

i think you are privileged almost beyond belief and should keep these sorts of opinions to yourself.

vivid_spite · 2022-10-01T15:38:31+00:00

this is most people in general, male or female, regardless of age. A lot of people are just living life as they go with no thought

Woujo · 2022-10-01T15:56:15+00:00

You are only noticing the losers.

This is such a stupid generalization.

2022-10-01T13:23:41+00:00

I agree with garlopf, the ones that are too busy with life probably don’t care about dating compared to the ones that aren’t as busy. Besides that I think girls just don’t care enough compared to men when it comes to making money and as long as they have options for providers they don’t have to work too hard.

2022-10-01T16:47:29+00:00

I wouldn’t say modern women are lazy per se but most of the ones I met just kind of do whatever they want. They have no structure or plan for their life, very little ambition beyond going out and drinking. They don’t care about finding a man and don’t plan ahead for their financial future. The MOST they will do is go get a bachelors or masters but typically not in a high paying field. This is just what I observe.

Everyman1000 · 2022-10-01T16:59:47+00:00

Mc_Dickles · 2022-10-01T17:06:55+00:00

Yea at my young age I meet a LOT of people who say “I wanna do blah blah blah” but put absolutely no effort into getting closer to doing blah blah blah.

2022-10-01T17:09:51+00:00

I'd say most early 20 something year olds don't really have much direction in life beyond what's immediately on the horizon, male or female. At that age my only priority was to just finish school and figure the rest out once I did. Besides that it was gym, get drunk with the boys, and try getting laid.

Being a student was all I knew at the time. I did a very time consuming STEM degree so I didn't really have the time to just sit and think what I wanted for the future beyond getting a job and getting out of the broke student life.

Wasn't until I graduated and got into the real world where I actually started figuring out who I wanted to be and what I wanted to do.

Shadoru · 2022-10-01T17:10:02+00:00

Money is not everything in life. Also, working hard is not equivalent to success, it may happen, it may not.

Bonzai_Monkey · 2022-10-01T17:10:16+00:00

A big percentage of [everyone] in their [insert any age] are lazy.

2022-10-01T17:20:37+00:00

Sure, most men are lazy too.

indigoshawty · 2022-10-01T17:27:26+00:00

This is such a funny post I love it

ftdrain · 2022-10-01T17:33:33+00:00

You sound like you live the life of an ant, always doing something, mindlessly going from task to task, life is more than that

Hard_on_Collider · 2022-10-01T17:43:12+00:00

That's most people
If you asked me to judge whether you're ambitious and self-motivated based on my criteria, I would say no. I judge people based on the positive impact they have on society. So for me, I would consider a really good teacher or a really good paramedic a more accomplished person than someone richer or more educated. In other words, people can value very different things.

great_account · 2022-10-01T17:51:13+00:00

Most women I know work harder than the average man.

RedditsOlderBrah · 2022-10-01T17:52:32+00:00

let's see what academia says. you graduated i assume. couldn't you have looked some of this shit up?

Analysis reveals a consistent decline in the young women’s leadership ambition after entering their professional career, stemming from a general sense of dissatisfaction with their jobs, a lack of connection with their organizations’ leadership and culture and an expectation that moving up the ladder would result in a less satisfying personal life.

https://www.emerald.com/insight/content/doi/10.1108/GM-11-2021-0344/full/html

this is strange, apparently women are losing ambition due to concerns like 'happiness', and being unable to connect with an organisation's leadership and culture for definitely not the reasons feminists think is pretty obvious if you think about it for like a fucking second.

The findings support that women do identify as ambitious, but they vary in the extent to which they view ambition as intrinsic and stable, or affected by external, contextual factors, such as identity-fit, barriers, support and work-life conflict.

i mean, it sounds like a lot of women look at the prize they get for 'making it' and are deciding that it's not worth ruining their life and health over. maybe they don't share your priorities.

First, institutional, organizational, and structural barriers limit women's access to elected office more than their psychological predispositions. Second, most candidate training programs cannot address these systemic barriers.

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/10.1080/21565503.2018.1532917

oh so often they have the required ambition but for some reason face a whole load of bullshit not encountered by certain other people. mostly men for some reason..

well that was fun.

2022-10-01T17:54:35+00:00

I don't think so. I think most mid-20s women do have standards far higher than their SMV, but I don't think it's because they are lazy. If anything, I think women today are probably the hardest working most ambitious women in the course of history. Look at the demographics of a college. Most of the girls in my dating pool as a mid 20s person seem to be in med school, grad school, or working a great job.
