Most men who don't have "success" with women are a-social. Lack of social skills is a far bigger hindrance than the aspect of looks.

A lot of it's ugly men coping and saying they're average. Average men only have it hard on dating apps. If you're ugly it's hard everywhere.

[–]social_mule 10 points11 points12 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Average men only have it hard on dating apps.

This is a simple yet accurate and profound statement. I'm gonna steal it, post a CMV about it after purge week and take all the credit for coming up with it.

Thank you kind stranger.

[–]Whisperinthelair 5 points6 points7 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

You're welcome 🤗

[–]meteorness123[S] 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Agreed

[–]Preme2 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Define hard.

[–]Hoopy223No Pill 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Rejected

Made fun of

Bullied

Ignored

Isolated at work (unless its a heavily male dominated field)

Viewed with suspicion

Race can play a factor as well, I noticed the Indian guys at my old IT job got a lot of shit thrown at them

The good news is that most of it is fixable

[–]MegaGigaTeraBased 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Explain to me how you fix a short ethnic man with a micropenis and facial deformities

[–]Whisperinthelair 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Being rejected, being made fun of.

[–]puririnpa -1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

idk why men love tinder so much

[–]Johnny_Autism 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link

doesn't apply when you're an asian guy and average or even above:

*inb4 "but zoomer girls now are more open to asian me-"

I'd get called "predatory" for going for zoomie women at this age, so I'm stuck with women raised on "le bucktoothed asexual nerd" stereotype about asians .

[–]puririnpa 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

it depends on how you look, if you look like a zoomer yourself then most people, except strangers on reddit, won't care

[–]Whisperinthelair 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Zoomers are repulsive.

[–]puririnpa 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

do you like post-wall women? as a zoomer even men my age look too old to me, i'm not even very young looking or looking under 20 at all myself but man, they hit the wall hard.

[–]Johnny_Autism 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I actually like the 30something look among pretty women, I like when they fatten up a bit, if its in the right places. But women my age mostly go for guys who look like military contractors. No matter how much I'd "work out", this age group simply prefers tall white anglo-saxon protestants with beards.

[–]puririnpa 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

if you look young yourself then go for a zoomer, i mean, i will probably date young men too when i become 30, if you don't look like an old man yourself literally no one except leddit liberals will care about you dating a 22 year old, strangers on internet shouldn't matter.

also milennial women often rape white or black 15 year old boys, it's moreso anti-asian brainwashing than muscularity, beard or height tbh, but asian culture dominate far too much now for this to be as bad among under 30 or under 25 group.

[–]Whisperinthelair 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

I look 30 appreciatively even tho I'm 18 and zoomers call me a pedo among other things when I go for girls in my age or talk about them.

[–]puririnpa -1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

honestly i feel like zoomer girls are pedo now idk why are purplepill oldcels c0pe with women peaking at 15 while men peak at 30's, it's the complete reverse.

[–]Whisperinthelair 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Women peaking at 30? 😆

[–]puririnpa -1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

it doesn't matter for women, but males peak at 15-25 these days.

[–]Fearless_Method_1682LVM solidarity squad 14 points15 points16 points 3 years ago (26 children) | Copy Link

Create a tinder profile with guy two, see how that goes.

[–]meteorness123[S] 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (23 children) | Copy Link

let's rather go outside and socialize like normal people who don't make tinder "experiiments"

[–]Lucr3tius 22 points23 points24 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Zero matches, proven wrong again on PPD, makes baseless "shaming comment" about "go outside and socialize" while posting on PPD and not being outside socializing.

“Normal people” take part in tinder too

[–]meteorness123[S] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (11 children) | Copy Link

yeah but they dont make tinder experiments where they create accounts of different people to draw real life conclusions from

[–]MasterTeacher123 7 points8 points9 points 3 years ago (10 children) | Copy Link

Online dating is “real life” though, it’s not 1999 anymore lol. It’s also expanded past just dating sites and into social media. “Slice in her DM’s” etc

[–]meteorness123[S] 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link

most women arent on it. People still go to college, seminars. I dont know why people act like they don't. I have one friend in my inner circle who met his gf off an app. all others offline

This says that only 12% of couples met through random chance encounters or at public events. Most were still through friends, online, or work

[–]meteorness123[S] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

it literally says that most people don't meet online and the argument wasn't about whether people meet through random encounters. It was about on vs offline and you moved the goalpost.

[–]ChineseMeatCleaver1 point 3 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

Ok but 88% of relationships dont happen by just “getting out there and socializing!” so you’re wrong.

[–]meteorness1231 point 3 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

thats how people meet each other, through socializing. Depending on the phase of life you're, it's gonna be much harder, I agree with that.

[–]ChineseMeatCleaver1 point 3 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

Your study is also older than mine, mine has the online meeting percentage at 38% as compared to ~35% on yours. They are both pre covid, which has no doubt skyrocketed the numbers.

[–]meteorness1231 point 3 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

bro, I have newer studies at hand as well. People will always meet offline, we're social creatures.

[–]ChineseMeatCleaver1 point 3 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

Show me the newer studies, because unless the numbers have dropped your point is still a miss. A huge portion of relationships start through OLD and saying it’s irrelevant or that “women barely use it” is incredibly false

[–]meddit-throwaway 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

And they get zero results, if you’re talking about normal men.

[–]Fearless_Method_1682LVM solidarity squad 9 points10 points11 points 3 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

No, your thread is claiming that average guys don't have difficulty dating. So you should be able to averageguyfish and get plenty of rich conversations with interested women.

How confident are you that you could do that using his pictures?

[–]AcanthocephalaNew947Willing to tell you its your face not your personality. -1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Dude I’m an average woman and I didn’t get that. Y’all really think online dating is just this treasure trove, nah it mostly sucks, you have to actually put in effort.

[–]Fearless_Method_1682LVM solidarity squad 7 points8 points9 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Livestream a tinder sesh. It'll go down in PPD history.

Dude I don’t have to create a tinder to prove the abundantly obvious reality that men want vaginas to stick their dicks in. Men pay literal crack whores to suck their dicks, Im pretty sure they’re willing to swipe to get access. I’m talking about actual dating, with actual dating apps. Not the trash hole that is tinder where uglies think they’ll somehow get free sex. I wouldn’t touch tinder with a 10 foot pole.

Are you a man OP?

[–]mackenzie013_02 6 points7 points8 points 3 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

The second guy is like a 7! He’s not average….

[–]MegaGigaTeraBased 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Idk, he seems pretty average to me objectively

[–]mackenzie013_02 5 points6 points7 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

He’s above average..

[–]ManzBearzPigzIzRealz 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

That’s generous, or he happens to fall into your type. Also, it’s hard to judge, since we can’t see his body type or height. If he had decent musculature and was on the tall side, I might be willing to accept a 7.

[–]mackenzie013_02 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

I mean it’s unlikely he’s fat based on his shoulders and face. He also has a very nice smile.

Anyways - not really a photo I’d use to show “average guy” when he’s clearly above average.

[–]ManzBearzPigzIzRealz 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

I’d say it’s an excellent photo to depict what most people think an average guy looks like. I agree that he’s probably not fat, but body type is more than, fat or thin.

[–]mackenzie013_02 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Well, agree to disagree. 😊

[–]ManzBearzPigzIzRealz 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I agree

[–]GhostofCamus 5 points6 points7 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

So it's cool to just shit on the first guy to prove a point?

[–]bottleblankConscientious Objector 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

That was my thought on the "PPD meetup" thread too (not the one with the topless dudes, the other one), seems incredibly uncharitable to just shit on dudes who aren't just naturally hot or social winners.

But I didn't bother to complain about the "PPD meetup" thread because it's clearly a shitpost (like this one) and I'd just get laughed out of the room for taking it seriously.

I agree with you, though. It's kind of an asshole move.

[–]OppositeBeautiful601 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Neither of those photos are average guys. One is a 2 the other is a 7 (at least)

[–]MoreSanitizerPlsSwitzerland 🇨🇭- No Pill 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

I think the guy on the bottom is a 6. He’s very attractive to me. But I get your point.

[–]Oshiruuko1 points 3 years ago [recovered] (1 child) | Copy Link

He's also super tall like 6'5. He's a YouTube prankster BigDawsTV

6’5 or 5’7. Still cute.

In a perfect world or somewhere other than America, that second guy is average. In the US though he is no lower than a 6, but probably pushing 7.

Put more time and effort into your post and youll garner actual replies and debate.

No the average man does not have it easy on the non -OLD field either, no the bottom picture you posted is not average that's top 25%.
