Also, I just have to say. I think our parents and communities just fundamentally failed us. How many guys are there on this board right now who heard shit from their parents like “Just focus on your career. Don’t get married until you’re 35. Don’t settle down until you’re in your 30s”? The problem is that’s just really fucking bad advice. What will happen is you’ll look up at 28, 29, 30 and be extremely fucking lonely, miserable, stuck in a social rut and wonder why you’re not having sex. Well, I hate to tell you but your parents kind of fucked you. They wanted you to get a bachelor’s degree, then a master’s degree, then a doctorate degree, then they wanted you to join a corporation, then get promoted. The last thing they wanted for you was for you to be happy, not alone, having relationships and so you didn’t. You listened to your parents like any kid would. Fundamentally, Western parents, especially American parents, do not love their kids. They really don’t. They love to “love” them but they don’t actually love them. They don’t want their kids to live happy or fulfilling lives. They want them to be doctors and here’s the kicker, at the expense of everything else if necessary. I’ve lived in other countries where it’s not always what happens but parents do encourage their kids to do things like “hold on to the friends you make in high school snd university” or “find a partner early on” or “don’t move 15 times before you’re 25 because you’re chasing the corporate carrot because you’ll be lonely”. They fucked over their kids with either bad advice or no advice and it’s really that simple.

And the way you know all this is too look at their actions and their words. How many boomer parents feel absolutely no guilt when giving their kid relationship advice while they’re on their 3rd or 4th marriage, or maybe their 10th partner since the divorce? How many of them throw around the word “love” like it’s 50% off at Target. It means nothing to them. They’ve literally never had to think about this stuff and they don’t care to. Why? They don’t care about their kids. Their kids are emotional accessories and this is also why you see so many Western parents using their kids as political tools. It’s quite sad just how horrible parenting has gotten.

Gen X adopted weird anxiety from boomer parents as well as the notion that they're living at the end of history, that everything had been solved. Thus, they become simultaneously overprotective of their children due to this anxiety, while also believing everything had been solved and the correct institutions were in place, a notion they pass on to their children. Well, 20 years later this obviously isn't the case and we're seeing the slow collapse of neoliberalism and because of that people have turned more distrustful of institutions.

tl;dr - passed down latent boomer anxiety coupled with knowing that the institutions you grew up with are failing

I Am Charlotte Simmons by Tom Wolfe. From a review by Mike Anton:
>William Crooke and Sir Herbert Risley, two 19th-century English social scientists, coined the term “hypergamy” to describe their observations of inter-caste marriage in India. Women, they found, married up but never down. Crooke and Risley concluded (or assumed) that hypergamy’s root (in India, at least) is the male insistence on preserving the status of the patrimonial line. A decade ago, political theorist F. Roger Devlin revived the term and gave it a new twist. Far from being unique to India, hypergamy is in Devlin’s account universal and, what’s more, driven by female, not male, desires. “[W]omen,” he wrote, “have simple tastes in the manner of Oscar Wilde: They are always satisfied with the best.”
>When properly channeled, hypergamy can be individually and socially beneficial. It encourages young ladies to become worthy of a worthy man, and vice versa. Yet off the leash, it spurs women in unhappy and self-indulgent directions.
>...
>The sexual revolution, universally assumed to be a boon for randy men, has turned out to be in at least one respect much more conducive to satisfying women’s preferences than men’s. Men may have started it, or at least egged it on, hoping that with the old restraints gone, they would be free to indulge. But they forgot or never understood a fundamental law of nature: throughout the animal kingdom—up to and including Homo sapiens—males merely display; females choose. When a woman’s choice is completely free of all social, legal, familial, and religious boundaries, she prefers to hold out for “the best.” Hence a constrained-supply problem arises.
>Four years ago, a University of North Carolina co-ed lamented to the New York Times that the sex imbalance on college campuses (nationally, 43% male, 57% female as of fall 2014) is even worse for girls than it looks. “Out of that 40 percent, there are maybe 20 percent that we would consider, and out of those 20, 10 have girlfriends, so all the girls are fighting over that other 10 percent.”
>Probably she was being either polite or self-congratulatory by stretching her eligibility pool to fully half the males on campus. If reports of college men are to be believed, no more than 20% get all the action. Perhaps not unrelated, when the dating website OKCupid asked its female members to rate the pictures and profiles of their male counterparts, 80% were deemed “unattractive.”

Women have no real need for men since the state now provides for them and always favors them when it comes to judicial afairs. So they don't have to try and attract anyone and can be as unscrupulous as they wish to be. Men see this as a raw deal as they have no protection in divorce or relationship matters and no longer feel a sence of duty to serve a state that threw them overboard and guided by a feeling of indignation they simply 'fall out' of society.

For me it was the #metoo movement. When you can potentially have your career destroyed and be socially blacklisted over misreading a situation and making the wrong comment , and this can potentially happen at any point in your life, and you see it happen to men around you and at every level of the social ladder, it makes it hard to want to go outside and hit on women.

That and the women I actually did talk to mostly seemed to use tinder and dating apps to live exciting porn lives unimaginable to 80% of men. Most women at my uni would talk openly about being sugar babies, and how much they looked down on men in their own league (ie, the men their own age who worked in the same workforce as them or went to the same school as them) and it doesn't make me want to marry them at all because my sex life is pretty bland in comparison.

When I actually did date a woman for a while, an ex-tinderella, she used to complain about how it was too bad I didn't have abs or my dick wasn't bigger. I guess she was just being honest about her preference, but I can't help that I'm not in the top percentile for looking like an athletic porn star, all I want is to blow my load and maybe smoke a joint and cuddle afterwards. Having to compete with every single guy on the internet city limits just didn't put me in the mood sexually, and at the end of the day it didn't seem like either of us were enjoying sex very much.

Combine that with some life stuff that held me back career wise, and I'm stuck in minimum wage manual labour hell without any real path towards career advancement (other than moving to the big city and spending several years at a university I can't afford), it doesn't make me an attractive partner or able to support a family or even see having a family as an option for me. Nobody in my town can afford to live in my town by working in my town, so how the hell are people going to build a community or families or anything?

We're just another lost generation it seems. Of course if we ever published anything like Hemingway or Pound published we'd be socially and economically blacklisted forever so even they had it pretty good in retrospect. I don't think that older generations realize how psychologically stressful it is having tech companies that compile and own every embarrassing moment and bit of private correspondence you've ever made, and political parties/media companies which will gladly ruin your life by publishing and distorting that information if you happen to disagree with them. Knowing that all of that will stick with you forever is a sort of psychological torture, and it takes all the lightness and good humour out of social interactions.

People really over estimate how much sex people are having at universities, and how much the gender gap in education actually benefits men sexually. Maybe I'm just bottom of the bucket?

The social conditions with regards to sex at universities these days resembles the Catholic church. Any attempt to initiate a relationship at all with the opposite gender is a very risky venture. The consequences can be severe so men don't do it. This isn't a bug, its a feature of the system. People engaging in relationships and potentially having families doesn't benefit the system. Most people seem to avoid relationships at uni because it takes time away from their studies and can mess up their carrier plans. How can I be a good servant for the system if I don't dedicate myself completely to it?

Universities push this sex positive narrative and the more they promote these ideas, the less sex people are having. Its awfully strange.

Meanwhile religions that are sexually repressive somehow result in large families. The "sex positive" progressive pseudo religion we are sold in universities result in the opposite.

The social conditions greatly diminish any benefit the gender gap would have for men at universities. The fixation of the culture on sex does not match up to peoples actions. Its kind if like "work life balance". The people who have the least work life balance talk about it the most.

I've found this too. The biggest misconception I had about university was that it was this place to let loose, of extended adolescence and experimentation. It's filled with career-minded professionals-of-the-future who spend the bulk of their 4 years padding their resume and preening themselves to get into the best white collar jobs. It's not enough to have great grades, you need to have a portfolio of work you did in your time, you need to collect positions at ineffectual student organisations like they're Pokemons, you need to work at a startup where you delivered key results. Students are always so busy, and it's really nothing but busy-work to get their dream career as a management consultant at MegaCorp. If they don't do it, someone else will. The laws of hypercompetition.

That doesn't mean I have abs. Most men don't have abs, because it takes an absurdly low bf-%.

>she's subtly telling you that you're not satisfying her in bed
What about my satisfaction in bed?
A relationship works both ways, and she was a dead fish that would act like she was too good for me. I like eating pussy but I'm not going to do it because I feel compelled to as a way to compensate for my inferior penis. That's fucked up, and if I told a woman she had to start sucking me off every time we had sex because her pussy was just too floppy to satisfy me I doubt that would work.

Anyways I don't want to be in a relationship where I'm constantly working to impress someone who never sees it as good enough (or feels like this work is something I'm required to do to compensate for my own inherent failure as a human being).

I literally can’t force myself to use tinder or date anymore. I use to try and power through conversations after a woman said something retarded, ignorant or grotesque but now I just stop responding to their texts or ghost them.

I am 26 years old. I lost my virginity with little fanfare to a dutch prostitute who was constantly pressuring me for more money because i was a tourist, it was less then enjoyable. Prior to this, I was offered a blowjob once by a drunk coworker, but declined half out of politeness and half disgust for them, as they had slept with both my bosses already and there was always ongoing drama related to their situation. I've had some close relationships with women since, most of whom seemed to be vetting me, and on realizing i'm content with living my life as it is they move on promptly.


Over the course of the last 5 odd years or so I developed feelings for a long term friend(Male) online, he's a few years younger then me and whether it be the age difference or just his specific personality, he has always promoted himself as very sexually submissive, (posting trap porn, prostrating himself when possible, etc) something i've come to attribute to things at large as opposed to just him, something more common with people in their early 20's online. Him being flirty me on multiple occasions, and us jerking off together a few years ago and other weird stuff you would only do with someone virtually long distance, i slowly developed feelings for him, and when I told him as much, he had a complete change of personality, and dropped contact with me a few weeks later, even though we had been close friends for a number of years.

I'm still unsure how to process the situation and feel about it, whether it be incelic anger for being lead on for 5 some odd years of my life or pity that people even slightly younger then me have it worse off. At any rate the pursuer has never had a harder time actualizing a relationship when the other party is always hoping for someone better. At the same time, they will most likely age, not find their perfect situation, and settle. All you can hope is you have enough to offer someone when they are in that stage, not in emotion or relation, but most usually capital.

I don’t really agree with that. Yeah, I do think it’s normal and better but it’s not literally THE single most important thing in the world. Our society now gets married and has kids in their 30s, if at all. So what are you supposed to do? Be a serial monogamist dating 20 women until you’re 30 or be a serial monogamist dating a handful before you go volcel? Neither of those are normal or healthy either and will probably likewise not lead to a happy or healthy life. Also, my point isn’t really about what women feel. It’s that they’re just as defective and living in ways that are counterproductive to any normal life as we are. They just might not realize it. You think all those girls who wake up at 37 with no man and no kids are really happy? No. They are miserable and they just cover it up with nonsense. My mom is 56, divorced twice, and on her like 4th boyfriend since the last divorce. She’s fucking miserable. She runs her workplace like a tyrant, treats her kids like shit, and is generally unhappy. The chickens come home to roost sooner or later but the irony is she’s still perfectly happy to tell me, at 28, not to settle down or insist with my 24 year old brother that his 8 year girlfriend is just using him. Point being, American parents fucked us. They never loved their kids and we can recover but we’ll never fully recover.

Bullshit, most men start masturbating to porn at a very young age or at least somewhere in puberty which means that an addiction can easily manifest itself. They are drawn to the superstimuli that defies every normal girl. It's a common myth that men stop porn when they finally get a gf. Most of the time, they even choose the medium over the real thing.

As a married dude who can fuck my wife basically whenever I want - porn is quicker, requires less effort, and little to no prep or clean-up afterwards.

Even a quickie with the wife is at least a 15-20 minute affair of undressing, getting her wet/getting me hard, fucking, getting up, cleaning ourselves off, and getting dressed again.

There's an often forgotten aspect of this crisis, that is to say the fact how of how demeaning and humiliating actually, genuinely trying is for most men in this day and age.. Everyone tells you to try, everyone tells you to man up, to learn to throw caution to the wind, etc. But no one anticipates that a woman can always let you try, let you apply for the job, without any real intent of hiring you unless you absolutely blow her away. She can screen a thousand candidates like you, all throwaways, until one manages to "wow" her despite initially seeming average. And obviously, she can use this process just to feel good that so many people are interested in applying.

The problem isn't even necessarily success or failure. It's the cost of success, even when you do succeed. That's the real pain of being an average dude. These days, there is no sure road to a relationship with a woman. You are either in the upper echelons of men who can breeze right through the line, or you are in the teeming mass of men waiting for their pathetic little grovelling interview, a one-in-a-thousand shot that they're willing to wait weeks or months for.

There are only so many strategies you can use to avoid or manage this dynamic. You can obviously swear off women and stop trying, stop "taking your shot," stop lining up to take your shots, on the understanding that you will only ever take a shot if the woman says "hey, you seem neat, I'm interested in you taking a shot! Are you interested in taking one?," and the exchange is equal and reciprocal. This is the dignified choice. But for an average guy, this will realistically never, ever happen. Women are kids in candy stores. Even if they are inclined to look for a good guy, and not a basic bitch Chad with an iron jawline, they still have the mentality these days that they can look for the good guy AFTER "having fun" for 5+ years.

So your choice is essentially: Be dignified, keep your pride, but accept that you will probably be dateless and/or sexless, possibly forever, OR, keep lining up to take your pathetic little shots, you grovelling "haha that's cool :) so what do you do for fun?" little milquetoast bitch. Keep trying to match that pathetic trickle of girls on dating apps that you actually get, that small fraction of girls who just got out of bad relationships so they're just BARELY willing to tolerate a physically unremarkable guy like you for a brief window, that is, willing to permit a slew of guys like you to line up and each take their unlikely shots, in rapid succession, so that even if you do get picked in the initial match lottery, you still have to actually GET PICKED in the date lottery. And even when you get a date, hell, even when you miraculously get to a serious stage, she's so spoiled for choices that she will reveal she's still "sort of seeing" another guy or she'll ghost you for someone who impressed her more.

You guys arguing about meeting girls at a club or bar or body language, let me let you in on a little tip that took me a long time to figure out but which I promise is legit.

Meeting girls in bars or clubs is the WORST way to meet girls. Period. The only time it ever works out is if you’re meeting a girl at a bar or club through a mutual connection. If you’re incel or socially awkward, don’t even bother. You’ve got to understand how these things work, right? Who do you think gets all the girls on Tinder? The guys with the best pics, the guys with model good looks. Who do you think gets all the girls at the club? It’s the guys with tables and bottle service. That’s the Chad-Incel distinguished. Now, you can meet girls at bars and clubs but you have to do so casually. Don’t go to bars or clubs just to meet girls. Only go if you want to go and if you happen to meet a girl, cool. If not, no problem.

So you might be asking “How am I supposed to meet girls then?” It’s simple. We’re going to ignore things like discord meetups, interpals, and other stuff like that. It’s possible but I have no experience with it so I can’t speak to that. You meet girls in a few basic ways
1. Classmates/coworkers
2. School/work related club members
3. Mutual interest/hobby members
4. Daily life
5. Via any of the above.

The first one is self explanatory so I’ll skip it. The second one is also pretty obvious. Let’s say you have to participate in a club for one of your courses or maybe a group project. You can obviously meet girls that way. Let’s say you participate in a volunteering thing for your work. That’s another way. Number 3 is basically the same thing but it’s actually in something you’re interested in. That can be, I don’t know, a book club, a running club, language classes, cooking classes, whatever. Now, you might be saying “my interest is playing basketball. How tf am I going to meet girls playing basketball?” That’s where number 4 comes in. You might not meet a girl at the actual court but you could meet her at the convenience store you stop at to buy a Gatorade after the game every Thursday. Alternatively, you might meet her at the grocery store, in a clothing store, whatever. Now number 5 is the one tied it all together and that’s through other people. That guy you play basketball with every Thursday obviously isn’t going to be your girlfriend but he just might bring someone to night at the bar for the team that could be. The key to all of this guys is you can’t be afraid to talk to people. You can’t be afraid to approach them as a potential girlfriend. And you have to put yourself in environments where there are people you can actually date, not clubs, not middle of nowhere rural towns, not in your room. Hell, even the library is better than nothing. This is basically how it works.

No, it's confusing cause and effect. Relationships and marriages fail because women love to ride the cock carousel and stop taking care of themselves once they "catch" a guy forcing men into watching porn to relieve themselves
Same goes for alcoholism, usually it's womens fault that men turn to alcohol by being abusive and self medicating with it to cope with torment
You are insane if you think people would replace genuine joy with substances/porn, 100/100 times women are to blame

It could be even worse. I found, what I thought at the time, was a really really good girl when I was like 20. I loved her. I mean, I really loved her. We dated for about 4 years, until things got kind of tough for me since I was going through some hard times, and then one day after 4.5 years together at basically 25 years old she just says “I think we should break up. I don’t love you anymore.” and that was that. That shit killed me inside and black pilled me harder than any amount of missed shots with low quality girls could. I realized in that moment that it really didn’t matter. She could be the greatest girl in the world, a total keeper. We could go on dates and be totally convinced that we’re going to get married and be together forever, even if it was hard. But no. She was always going to get bored and leave sooner or later. Just like my mother left my father, she would’ve left me.

Yes. Dancing also forces you to get physical and close, and as the man you will have to lead which teaches you confidence and initiative.

There's a reason dancing used to be the main way of meeting partners until pair dances got replaced with the modern globohomo-stand-in-a-circle awkwardly tripping to shitty music freestyle dancing.

Back in my clubbing days i'd mainly go for the acts playing ( I used to go completely alone too) and the whores were secondary. Probably makes you seem way less desperate overall thus more approachable. Used to be big on observational humor and was a decent way to rope people in. If I had a bad night girl wise it was ok, not the main reason I was there so you dont get resentful.

That’s just objectively not true. Yes, it’s harder but the idea that it’s not possible is nonsense. I’ll agree that it would be normal and ideal to meet women through work but you largely are discouraged from it and that’s all. It still happens and it’s still possible.

Because there is nothing to say during those short moments. Women hate being aproached because they hate 95% of all men due to their genetics. They only want top 5% of men who were born tall and handsome. They hate average and below average men being near them, and won't ever accept being talked to. There is nowhere to meet or ask out women whatsoever anymore.
Think about it, how many women you meet (see) thorughout your day? Hundreads. How many are you dating? None. Because seeing women =/= meeting them. There is nowhere to meet women in modern world.
