      Coming up on 10 years married and haven't validated this, but I suspect from what I've seen that the problem is completely avoidable on an individual basis and anyone who subjects themselves to it gets what they're looking for.https://twitter.com/lolennui/status/1484658321374076928 …

      eh... when 90% of the women are in culture A, most women you meet are in culture A ; when 90% are in culture B, most are in culture B... and only some of them give clear signs that they're in culture B.

      I don't mean this to be bragging or anything, but I've never thought of dating merely 90th %ile people available to me and I doubt you have either...

      Yeah, you have to be thoughtful, put in work, learn signals of quality, etc... Same as it ever was.

      "same as it ever was" you're asserting that it's the same as it ever was, and the argument is that it's the same as it ever was weak

      Maybe I misunderstood something then? I thought the argument was that things are radically different now? I mean, from what I've seen the *default, low-effort path* is worse today than it used to be. But all of the high-effort, high-value paths are open as far as I can tell.

      yes, the argument is that things are different and your counter argument is "no they're not because no they're not" which is a fine opinion to have, but isn't very convincing to someone who doesn't already agree with you

          I also pointed to specific avenues that are still available and brought up factors (effort, thinking, standards) that aren't typically brought in and cut against the "most people are A vs most people are B" line.https://twitter.com/shlevy/status/1484901107663085569 …

          Setting aside the past 2 years... There's still college, bars, workplaces, friends of friends, conferences, pottery classes, weird online communities, whatever. You don't have to spend your days swiping if you don't want to.

          My point in saying "same as it ever was" is not that nothing has changed, it's that the requirements for high quality results seem to be the same and it's within individual power to meet them.
