Most of this is the exact opposite of reality. The stats show women rejecting the overwhelming majority of men on dating apps and rating 99% of men as below average. On the other hand, men's standards were much more reasonable. You literally have 80% of women all chasing 10% of men (and refusing to accept anything else). And then of course those women wonder why they get cheated on too.
You're correct that black women are rated as the least attractive, but someone has to be last, and men are still happily trying to date average women, whereas the reverse isn't true.
It's most women who have options. I was completely astounded recently to discover that women on apps didn't even click on the general tab for finding people and simply swiped left or right on the huge queue of men who'd already liked them. If I did that I'd be swiping once a month!
Wow, gotta to love it when some random dude proceeds to blame you for your dating troubles because you are a woman./s
First off, using dating app stats doesn't mean much when you still need to try and prove that said results apply to real-world situations revolving around dating. Also, to automatically conclude that the results of those statistics are because women are shallow and looking for men out of their league is just plain stupid.
Potential factors and explanations, ranging from Parental Investment Theory, safety, differences in how society treats promiscuity in women vs men, and differences in the amount of effort put into physical appearances by both genders (dating apps put a lot of emphasis on appearance and women generally are held to a higher standard when it comes to looks in comparison men) be damn! As we all know, the only reason why women might be more picky on dating apps is because they are all shallow and full of themselves./s
Secondly, dude, I've come across men who don't put any effort into their appearance and who are complete assholes but yet act like they've got the whole package and are entitled to women way out of their league. This isn't some gendered phenomenon. Some people are just full of themselves. I've also come across many women who settle for men who are way below their league and who treat them like shit. The only reason why women's dating standards are rising at the moment is because women can live more independently now and are thus now afforded the luxury of actually being able to look for a good partner instead of being forced to settle. Even then, many women still have very low standards when it comes to dating.
If women have options, so do men. Your entire reply just comes off as you projecting your misogynistic bitterness surrounding your lackluster dating life onto
@FireFox . If you are going to be this rude to her then why bother even commenting on her thread in the first place? Maybe instead of complaining about and blaming women you could instead work on that attitude of yours.
