This is sort of a theoretical discussion so don't take this post too seriously, just looking for some intellectual thought on gender relations.
So I was just thinking, there is a whole art out there on how to pick up women and how to show them you are a high value person, thus the existence of forums like these.
This is virtual non-existent on the other side. There are no professional programs teaching women how to attract men, there are no forums out there on how to attract men. Yes women do make an effort to look attractive with makeup/hair/clothes/body, but their efforts are virtually full-proof in the fact that no matter what they do, all they have to do is pretty much show up and they will get a return on investment no matter what. Doesn't matter how fat (unless you are a complete whale), how ugly, how unsuccessful, if you have kids, how unfunny, etc etc if you show up to a bar/club/online dating site there WILL be guys there who will be willing to take you home for the night and there WILL be guys there that will date you.
As far as guys are concerned, we have to train and train, read up, learn how to be smooth, how to be funny, how to be confident, how to show our value to women, how to show them that we are worth their time, etc, just to have a CHANCE at getting with someone. Guys can put tons of effort into it (way more than women) and still walk away unsuccessful.
So by no means am I model material nor am I very rich, but for a 25 year old who wasn't born into wealth I am pretty successful, am smart, attractive and fit, nice car, nice apartment, stable financially. Basically I have lots of good assets and qualities. The problem? I have no idea how to sell myself (to women) and haven't developed the DJ techniques to pick up women. So I'm sitting here wondering...
Shouldn't women need to prove their value to me? And other guys like me?
It seems like the way the gender relationships works is that simply being a woman is enough. They don't need to be very attractive, they don't need to be successful, they don't need to be intelligent, they don't need to have a good sense of humor, they don't need to put in ANY effort, just being born a woman is enough.
I have to ask. Why is this game needed? Why are DJ techniques even required to pick up women in the first place? Why don't women need to exert the same effort to pick up men?
