I wonder if this is inherent (women might be naturally more selective) or if there is something that could be done about the structure of dating apps that could get men's sex appeal across a lot better

dating apps are too text-based! v insubstantial and unphysical. you'd get a much better sense of men (well, everyone) by watching short video clips of them speaking and moving. not that i think this would help most men's dating success 😬

i'm inclined to believe that the real problem is that society no longer has any mechanisms operating at scale for producing genuinely attractive men, and instead mostly has mechanisms that crush men into tiny little bits

Damn...Wish you would say more about this. (Blog, podcast, manifesto?)

i was just reading the beginning of richard schwartz's "you are the one you've been waiting for" and he says some very relevant stuff, better than i could say it:

Thank you for sharing. I too, even as a very young child, felt this “dark, piercing unease.” I wonder if you have had convos with your partner - however gender identified - where this unease was brought out into the light as a common experience?

i don't currently have a partner but i have very occasionally done this sort of thing with past women i was entangled with and it's been real good when it's possible!
