      that was an interesting read but also a frustrating one. is it really true that "men tend to respond to sexual marginalisation with a sense of entitlement," while women respond with "empowerment"? that seems incredibly facile

      Placeholder response (because believe me there's more): the part re: men in that situation struck me as true *generally* (not universally). Re: women, that was the (only, I think) part where I was a bit... less convinced

      I think that interpretation makes sense if you're only looking at responses of men and women who sort of *mobilize* around their feelings of rejection. When I suspect most women especially in that situation do not

      Anecdotally, would say that women in that situation are more likely to either a) assume it's something wrong with *them* (esp re: looks), and feel the opposite of entitled, or b) put up with a lot of awfulness from men in exchange for affection, than c) the empowerment route

      I'm just not sold on the idea that Eliot Rodger or reddit "incel" groups are representative of more than a tiny, maladjusted sliver of society (or that they should be minted on the same coin as "lesbians rejecting trans women", which is a whoooole other thing)

          Ooh, so much here... Agreed that (violent) extremes aren't representative. That said: the man who says no woman will date him, but what he actually means is, no woman who looks like a supermodel, or who's 30 years his junior, is a... type, w/out a female equivalent

          Look up hypergamy, assotative mating, and 'where have all the good men gone'; check out sex differences on Tinder. Yeah, there is.

          http://www.ehbonline.org/article/S1090-5138(17)30315-X/abstract … We found that ratings of attractiveness were around 1000 times more sensitive to salary for females rating males, compared to males rating females. (...) Neither raters' BMI nor age influenced this effect for females rating male attractiveness.

          (Hilarious how, halfway through, she completely forgets her recognition that women "date up" in terms of being provided for. "From there, we learn that women are more likely to date down." Hehe, "#nuance".)
