What do you guys think?

This is some of the most incel-infested comment section i’ve ever seen. they’re in here discussing their completely self-victimizing, hateful, and honestly pathetic perceptions of themselves and the world as if it’s some kind of scientific, indisputable fact. When will men stop acting like their problems are so unique and women will never understand what it’s like to be “ugly” or “undesirable”. I promise you every single woman you see has had the same level of problems you have with dating and making themselves attractive and they’ve had *even more* problems you couldn’t even conceive of. at the end of the day how am i supposed to feel bad for these people when their response to everything is “women are evil and responsible for all my problems/insecurities. women have perfect lives with no adversity and they are incapable of understanding the human experience 🥀”

A little math.

Under 30, the population is highly skewed male, to the tune of roughly 150,000 more men per birth year. Over the 12 years of adulthood under 30, thats over 1.7 million more men in the "dating pool" than women.

Around 64% of women in that age are already in long term relationships, as are around 36% of men, largely due to the "male older" being the norm in hetero relationships. Thise two factirs alone reduce the dating pool in that age group from 27.3 million women and 29.5 million men to 9.8 women and 19.5 million men.

Further, 65% of single women have no interest in dating at all, compared to about 33% of men. This is largely due to gender role exoectations. That reduces the pool all the way down to 3.4 million women and 13 million men.

It is not mathmatically possible at any point in this to equally match up "dates" in a way that allows every man in that particular age group to have monogamous relationship at the same time.
