  1. They still get attention and offers from men. Even elderly women have more options that a not insignificant number of men. They know it and that's why they can make high demands.

  2. The only winning move in a rigged game is to not play.

  3. I completely agreed with every sentiment in this video until the conclusion of what to do, which could be boiled down to "do better". The top percentile of men who are having all the success in the dating market have physical attraction that the majority don't have, better genetics, access to material worth and goods that the majority can only dream of and so forth. Your less than average Joe in a blue collar job is not going to have the resources and worth to compete. It is impossible to make every man become the top tier male - evolution is incompatible with socialism. That's why we implemented monogamy while we had civilisation. This change will herald the end of western civilisation unless we acknowledge the consequences of polygamy now and correct course now. If we don't, men will feel excluded and outcast from society and will withdraw, with the consequences of withdrawing labour, taxes and contributing to society. I'm sure we all want running clean water, electronic goods, functioning sewerage, engineering, roads, military, police, fire fighting, healthcare and many other goods and service we take for granted that are provided by individuals who collectively contribute to society and the economy.

  4.  @phoenixtoash2396  Sorry, the data I have seen on dating coupled up with the anecdotal evidence I see in real life matches what I said. This is why it is impossible for a woman to be involuntarily celibate. And that's because in humans, women decide who gets to mate and date because they bear the most cost in reproduction and child rearing.

  5. Women have two options in this situation - they can choose from a myriad of men who would date them regardless of their age (even if it means those men go without bearing their own children) or they can choose to remain single. This is also why it is impossible for women to be involuntarily celibate. Men do not have the same options because it's women, not men, who choose who gets to date and mate (as they bear the most cost biologically). Men who don't marry or have children when they hit 40 will statistically never will. This is what the "fine wine" brigade refuse to accept. Even elderly women have more options than a not insignificant proportion of men.
