Lonely millennials, you are not alone!

A new survey found that over half of Americans between the ages of 18 and 34 do not have a romantic partner.

In spite of the recent rise of dating apps, more young people than ever remain single, according to data released by the General Social Survey from researchers at the University of Chicago.

The women dress to attract male attention, not surprising.

However if you are not the type of guy they want to attract, you can face serious legal trouble just for noticing or saying hello.

And considering women state from ranking studies only about 10-20% of men they find attractive, most men arent gonna risk it. Men however in ranking studies had a far less harsh ranking curve on womens looks.

It is grossly stacked against men.

I just finished a book on the phenomenon of young men not maturing.

The problem can be measured in the tens of millions. If 20 million men do not marry, that means 20 million women do not marry. With other less America-friendly cultures having millions of children, things get dicey in a couple of decades.

i’m betting a survey taken in the ‘60’s, ‘70’s, or ‘80’s would have had similar results.........

My son 25 was engaged a couple of years ago to a nice Christian girl who veered from being a homebody take care of me type to a driving hard career woman.

It was bizarre. It went south terribly.

Now he dates but cannot find women who want to settle. The ones who are looking for a mate, have one or two kids, in their early or mid twenties, and have terrible parenting skills.

He is bitter too. sad.

Your daughter is in the age range of baby rabies and settling down after having her best attractive dating years behind her, college through her 20s, having a lot of fun with different guys. Now shes decided she wants to settle down after all that fun time.

What guy doesnt want to just put a ring on that?

Great documentary “Divorce Corp” totally backs up just how gynocentric the divorce courts are to favoring men and destroying men.

Tell him while its hard being alone, its far worse being with someone you dont want to be around, and can take half your stuff and your kids from you anytime they decide to do so. On top of it lying about you abusing them or the kids in order to eliminate any custody or time with your kids.

Have him watch “Divorce Corp” and he will see just what a massive bullet he dodged. Its online and free out on the internet.

That old toxic masculinity

AggroBroad

"What are you so aggravated about?"

"I spent over an hour putting on all of my make-up,
coordinating my skirt and blouse and doing my hair. 
And l had barely got out the front door
when some creep harassed me!"

"Wow.  What did he do?"

"He noticed!"

I have seen it, up close, many times.

So have I. Don't believe the hype. It's not stacked against men.

As I said, though, it is stacked against the nice people, whether they're women or men. :-(

Cellular phones have to contributed much to our society. To the contrary, nobody seems to talk face to face anymore. Satisfied with Facebook interaction, who need actual interaction? Empty nations usually get colonized by invaders.

Yep, that seems to be the trend.

To be blunt, your son shouldn’t settle down. If he wants to find a wife, think about moving overseas. Like to the Philippines or Mexico. You get the idea.

I suspect that the young’uns are just sexed out. Nothing romantic about sex if you avail yourself to it on a daily basis with different partners. Heard any romantic songs from that age group? No.

After a while the flavor of the moment is no longer appetizing. There is nothing behind current sex trends but physical sex. Burn out.
