Back in my time (10 years ago), the predominant attitude was that you had a system that weeded out attention wh0res. Like the anti-dump system. Attention wh0res were often talked about, but not to the level of today. Today, it seems like the only version of females guys are running into are attention wh0res. This is either exaggerated (because your ego would rather blame the woman than admit being beta, aka MTGTOW) or guys are no longer having boundaries, self respect, qualifying women and filtering out the trash, etc.
In my experience, there are plenty of quality women out there. If you have boundaries, it is easy to filter out all the crazy women. Sometimes I wonder if guys are actually reading the DJ Bible. Back in the day, you hardly ever see newbie questions. Concepts like you need a damn life, you need to pursue your passions and purpose, become masculine, and have standards were understood by most posters.
I do agree that the quality of this board seems to be brought down by bitter guys who absolutely hate women, and no life keyboard jockeys who spend all their time seeking validation and approval while putting others down. With these two things, every thread turns into a flame war and nobody learns anything.
