lol i'm gonna take an educated guess and assume you're white. if so **** yeah it was.
let me expand before someone closes the thread lol.
look, the problem that men have today with dating is the same problem, the exact same actually as we are having with the economy when you break it all down
once you get past all the bull****, all the political propaganda, the bottom line with the economy is that you in a nutshell, have more people, that are competing for the same amount of jobs (if not less) than you did 40 years ago. We can ship our manufacturing jobs overseas now. We can ship our programming jobs overseas.. I have said it a few times my best programmer is based in Uttar Pradesh. 40 years ago I would not have had access to him.
so you get a lot of people.. either people who used to do hard core blue coller work like building cars, that can't find work. American based programmers, there is still a very good market for but the avg to below avg get culled out really quick; people will pay for good work but people won't pay for generic avg website work like they would 10 years ago just beucse you live in the same city, so the bottom tier of programmers are fighting for scraps and are living hand to mouth if that, people will outsource avg website work 8 days a week and honestly they should. that's capitalism. why pay you 1500 dollars for a site that i can get built the exact same avg quality for 700 somewhere else lol i don't give a **** how much you paid to go to college or what your bills are it's not going to guilt me into paying more for a site. it' snot my fault you suck at your job. But the above avg to bad ass programmers, generally don't have a probelm finding clients.
The game is no different. Women, because of race relations, ease of travel, social media, just have more options. at the end of the day, that's what this is all about. Also add in the fact that women, for the most part, don't need men finandically.. a lot of women make just as much if not more than men do, so while women are wired to want a guy to be the head of a household, the ability to put food on the table is not an exaggerated character trait like it was 40 years ago. game = trying to put yourself back at the top of a woman's options list whereas 40 years ago you were there just by default beucase she couldn't date 1/3rd of the people she saw beucse it was stigmatized and she didn't' know anyone else around town or out of town so you're it
the cream is gonna rise to the top. in work, or in game. the top is not gonna have a problem getting laid. the bottom class wasn't getting laid then and isn't getting laid now. it's hte male middle class that is suffering, guys who don't want to put the work in but yet, still want HB 8's, mad that they have other options and would rather spend their time lashing out rather than addressing the problem
i joke but in a serious manner i don't understand how people can believe in capitalism yet not be gung ho about hypergamy.. it's the same freaking thing lol. i guess when one benefits you and one doesn't...
because women, don't for the most part literally need men anymore, the price of pvssy has inflated. it's worth more beucase they can be more selective about who they give it out to and don't HAVE to use it as a bargaining tool to secure a life style.
in short what i am really trying to say is that women haven't per say changed as much as the conditions of which a woman will be intimate with a man have because of socioeconomic conditions. Women were always "like this".
