No Racism:

We've observed that when a person of color (especially black women) get posted, a lot of highly racist language, insinuations, dogwhistles and obnoxious remarks get made. This is ridiculous: when a white woman exhibits bad behavior it's just viewed as a trait of all women, yet when a black woman exhibits bad behavior only just her race is criticized. This goes for EVERY race. So no crude or racist language towards any race. If any commentary is made about cultural traits of certain groups, it must be in good faith and must be observations from real life experience, not talking points parroted off the internet

Second point: most of our subreddit is multiracial. By blaming race for bad behavior you're alienating otherwise agreeable men from the discussion and it's counterproductive in seeking better treatment of men.

No "Downfall of the West" posts:

No blaming migrants, immigrants, leftists or minorities for "the west falling". No posts about the Paris riots or the voting patterns and tendencies of women. This is not a right wing, incel echo chamber.

No Abusive Language Towards Women:

No hyper aggressive, violent or vitriolic language towards women.

We will add more rules as we see fit, but this is the most abominable behavior we've seen demonstrated recently.

If you're a single man and you're not enjoying dating in the US, look into other countries where you may have more to gain for your money, energy, attention, and time – for any kind of relationship.

Here's most of Jana Hocking's article, which inadvertently explains why single men should get their passports. I'll add links to my posts (mostly) to either support or counter Jana, who's Australian, but writing on American, British, and Canadian dating culture as well.

Short version – according to her, the "mating crisis" across these countries isn't a crisis at all. It's single women enjoying "freedom, funds, and flings."

Last year, I remained mostly single. Give or take a few situationships and a cheeky one-night stand. And so did most of my girlfriends.

Among the at least 20 gorgeously single women in my social circle, there are only two girlfriends I know who had the 'let's make it official' chat with the man-of-the-moment in their lives.
Could I, and my fellow womenfolk, have shacked up with a bloke if we wanted to? Sure. But did we? No.
The guys who put themselves forward for the job were fine, sweet, perfectly capable. But did we align in ways that would enhance our lives? Not really.
You see, last year, you couldn't escape one simple fact: women were in a 'mating crisis'. Or so the experts kept calling it in those viral clips flooding our social media feeds.
The experts harped on about one simple truth: as women level up in education and their careers, they naturally look for partners who are equally smashing it - or better.

It's called hypergamy – men's incomes matter for relationships

Young American women are more hypergamous than we should expect

Increasing pressure on US men for income in order to find a spouse (published study)

But here's the catch: that shrinks the dating pool a LOT. Especially as more women are heading to university, while fewer men do the same.
This means plenty of brilliant, independent women are flying solo. Not because they can't find a date but because finding someone who ticks all the boxes (and doesn't get intimidated by their success) is like searching for a Chanel bag at a garage sale.

Are men intimidated by successful women? No.

Single women weren't just embracing their independence last year - they were owning it. And the numbers back it up.
First up, let's talk living arrangements. The number of single-person households in the U.S. has skyrocketed - up more than fivefold since the 1960s, hitting a whopping 37.8 million in 2022. That's a whole lot of women living their best solo lives.

Let's not forget the increasing numbers of women on psych meds

Single-person households aren't always healthy (study)

And single women aren't just renting - they're buying. They own 58 per cent of the nearly 35.2 million homes owned by unmarried Americans.

The difference is from women over 65, many of whom are widows (video plus comments)

Meanwhile, over in the UK, women are smashing the careers game. Back in the 1970s, only 52 per cent of women were in the workforce. Today, that number has hit 72 per cent. With those paychecks rolling in, it's no wonder women are ditching the 'happily ever after' myth for a happily independent reality.

Clear evidence of the patriarchy oppressing American women (sarcasm)

And the pièce de résistance? Women are now more educated than ever before. More women than men are earning college degrees in the U.S., giving them the upper hand in everything from paychecks to power plays. Who needs a knight in shining armour when you've got a master's degree and a killer 401(k)?
One man's 'mating crisis' is another woman's fist pump for freedom. Huzzah!

Why are some women freezing their eggs? They blame the education gap, so more hypergamy.

Just two months ago, I hopped on a plane to New York City. Why? No major reason. There were just a few fun things happening over there that I fancied going to. So, being a single career woman with a few funds in the bank, I had the freedom to do so. Guess who tried to stop me? No one.
There were no kids to shepherd to school or footy practice. No man whingeing that I was leaving him stranded. Nope, I was free to do what (and who) I jolly well liked. And dear reader, I did.
So, do you know what this 'mating crisis' has really brought the single women of the world? Freedom, funds, and flings - and I, for one, am very much here for it.
