Oh yeah. I thought dating.

It's not.

But it keeps getting presented (https://www.thedailybeast.com/sympathy-for-the-incel …) as men who truly can't find sex. Which is a v. different situation than, 'supermodels won't date me, thus life is unfair'
-
I don't have a whole lot of sympathy for the sexless as a class (and especially those who identify), though there are enough that I think are just in a bad situation I don't write them off. The same applies, except moreso, to women left out.
-
The "moreso" in large part because I don't *understand* why some of the women were left out. The guys... yeah, I can point to this trait or that trait, high expectations or an annoying personality or crippling social phobia. My wife's friends? Perplexing.
-
Which goes back to my observations from high school about general popularity. I knew why the unpopular guys were unpopular and it was rarely arbitrary (even if very often based on faulty metrics). I never understood the dynamics of what separated girls between popular and non.
-
I promise this is clear enough to girls themselves, with the equivalent mystery in the other direction!
-
I'm so old, I remember there were news stories that said a woman was more likely to get killed in a terrorist bombing than marry for the first time >35. Which iirc turned out not to be true, but that was the whole tenor of the convo then. About women.
-
Yes, this. For men, part of their status in society comes from whether women are drawn to them. For women, traditionally, attractiveness to men is everything in that department
