The system of marriage that our parents or grandparents knew is gone, and it’s not coming back. People are less likely to settle down, and women are less likely to settle for an average guy. Marriage has gone upscale, and become something of a luxury product, but the men that women do want—known as high value males—are in very short supply.
One key point to consider, he said, is that “women universally, in all cultures, have stronger mate preferences for men with status and resources. Since there’s been a ‘flip’ in education and higher professional degrees, with more and more women exceeding men, that means that there’s a smaller and smaller pool of men whom women consider eligible.” So, he adds, “women either wait and hope to find some man who exceeds threshold—at least as successful as they are, and preferably more so—or they opt out of the mating market; or they ’settle’ for men, and essentially ‘mate down.’ Women are typically very reluctant to do this.”
Of all the physical characteristics that matter to women, a man’s height appears to be the most important. This is true across cultures. The so-called “perfect” height is 6 feet. That’s bad news for the average American man, who stands at 5 foot 9 inches.
:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
What will the country look like in the next few decades as these trends play out? The aforementioned Clarey, told me that, two decades from now, “marriage will be the distinct minority of relationships,” with the vast majority of “people dating in perpetuity until they’re dead.” Oh, and “your average American woman will weigh 200 pounds, and your average American man will be 265.”
Clarey believes that “the marriage industry will tank,” and “cohabitation will be the primary form of households.” Roughly “75 percent of American children will be born out of wedlock.” Those are all estimates, he added. Clarey, a methodical researcher, believes that “Americans will continue to look more slovenly.” Absent the social pressure to groom and compete for mates, “people will get fatter, dress sloppier, care less about their physique less, and end up looking like the People of Wal-Mart. We will become physically disgusting and revolting people, and by many regards we’re already there.”

I was at an endurance athletic event last weekend…shocked by the amount of skinny-fat and fat-fat people out there. Get in the gym and move heavy **** around peeps. Constant cardio ain’t doing anything for you.
As for marriage….it’s a thing of the past. Good riddance….
lifting heavy makes you a fattie. Inb4 someone rages and posts some roid pic.

My 48yo 5'9 azz is enjoying marriage pretty good these days with my 49yo 5'6 135lb wifey (she looks about 38 really). Never thought I would get married again but so far I am glad I did. Wife is upstairs showering and washing my giz out of her woman hole as we speak. Third time in 48 hours. My point: God didn't make me 6 foot tall but I'm making the best of it. There is some truth to this article though, women are getting much more picky. I think frame of a man is more important than ever. If a man isn't 6 foot tall and physically perfect, he can make up for it with frame and related factors like attitude, confidence, how he handles difficult situations, etc. My wife has admitted that she would not be attracted to me what so ever if I was a "yes dear" honey-do wuss-bag like 100% of the husbands of her female friends. She used to fight my frame but she has now accepted it cuz it ain't going anywhere and she knows it.

Right. Because of all things that could severely damage America, it's definitely gonna be the decline of marriage.

Brilliant.

The bottom line is that the state has replaced men as the provider of security and stability for women. Women no longer need individual men (i.e. husbands) to survive. The irony is that the modern welfare state was created by men. Thus, we have a real life example of ouroboros - a serpent eating its own tail.

The line at your local McDonald's drive up window tells you how fat this country is. There has never been so many fat 20somethings, I get why you younger guys complain. Talent is scarce.

Not entirely true. Lifting heavy with a calorie deficit diet and enough protein doesn't make you fattie, it makes lean with muscles. You don't even have to do cardio to lose weight.
so how will you gain muscle on a calorie deficit especially if you are a gym noob?

All of this is highly predictable. This is what happens when you decide to ignore the laws of nature and try to build an experimental society based on such wacky concepts as feminism and equality of outcomes. Any attempt to redefine the natural relationship between men and women is bound to produce a grotesque result.
