The same is happening on the manosphere side, which seems to be refocusing lately on male wellness, celebrating fatherhood, etc. This means that 90%+ of men and women can go on dates without worrying as much about being caught up on the latest gender war terminology.

Trend #2: online dating is being digested. Apps were a massive disruption to how people meet and date, with 40%+ of new couples today having met online. That means that people who grew up before the internet suddenly had to build an "online presence" - a dating profile.

People sucked at it. Most profiles and app choices are bad and not aligned with a person's goal. Everyone got sucked into Tinder with its awful dynamic of women messaging only the hottest guys, resulting in men being ignored and women being ghosted after a one-night stand.

I see two reasons for optimism. 1 - with experience people should get better at dating online, and realize that it's part of your overall online persona along with Twitter, Facebook, blogs, forums, etc. The internet is for dating too, OkCupid is not a separate magisterium.

2 - There's plenty of room for apps to get better. I predict ML-based apps that match people based on their entire online presence, not just a lazily-filled profile. Facebook is best positioned to do it for Millenials, and maybe (through Instagram) for Zoomers too.

Trend #3 - the economic swing in the working class. For many years now, male-dominated blue-collar jobs (e.g. transportation) have been disappearing while female ones (e.g. personal care, healthcare) are booming. I expect this to continue in the 2020s.

Aside: Ironically, this is part of the measured wage gap. Men have a higher average wage in part because blue-collar men are dropping out of the labor force and so aren't counted in the full-time wage statistics, while women can work in either high or low-wage jobs.

This is bad for dating. Women don't want to date unemployed/broke guys, especially if these men don't tend to make up for it by doing more housework or childcare. It's a catch-22: men need to "feminize" to be economically useful, but that can hurt their romantic appeal.

A solution would be to frame fatherhood and jobs like physiotherapist as the epitome of wonderful manhood, but I don't think that our culture is moving there. If anything, antinatalism is on the rise even as Western birth rates are catastrophically dropping.

Birth rates dropping means lots of old people who need to be cared for. I bet that will become a manly job in the future.

I wouldn't really bet on it, but I certainly hope that culture will follow the economic incentive. Do we have data from Japan about working-class men jumping into eldercare?

Googling around, it seems that in Japan women are over-represented in "human-services" professions (like healthcare) except the ones that are well paying and high status (like physician). Eldercare will have to become highly paid at some point, but not sure about high status.
