I completely agree with you, but I think we're talking about two different sides of the same coin.
Men on here seem to think that just because a woman can get sex easily that they should stop saying they can't get into a relationship because they think those two things are on the same level. When a woman says 'I can't find a boyfriend' a man will inevitably say 'But you could walk into a bar right now and take a guy home' and those two things are VERY different, but they think they're the same. Does that make sense?
Nope. I've said all along that you as a woman will have more chances in your life to do the picking and choosing than a man will. So while you say men don't approach you or they approach you in a rude manner, the problem is that the men you want don't approach you. So while it's true that getting sex anytime you want doesn't equate to a relationship, you still have more power than most men to pick and choose the men you want to be in a relationship with. And the "you" being women in general not just yourself.
Goes to show how much a man makes doesn't equate to women flocking to him.
250 dates and no semi-matches? Then he wants his money back?
Probably his attitude problem.
Ugh in a way it does. Would 250 women have gone out on a date with him if he was the mailroom guy at the company making 25k a year? So SOMETHING interested 250 women and based on the article it wasn't his looks or personality that did and he is the one that wouldn't continue the dating not them. The article claims he was the one too picky.
250 dates? How many men attract that many women to accept a date?

What he paid for women to date him. Likely other like-minded women who were looking for a serious relationship. Why is a problem for women joining a dating service? Some people join the free sites, some people join paid sites, and some people pick a matchmaker. People have different motivations for each route. I have a feeling that he went on 250 first dates. 25 second dates. And women rarely made it past date 2. They had some sort of "deal breaker" that he couldn't get past.

I agree with you on the number of 1st dates. Probably something like 90 second dates, 45 third dates and 20 fourth dates. Some of the women probably weren't into during the 1st, 2nd or 3rd dates so we have to account for that. All in all, he likely is too picky.

250 women saw his profile and photos and accepted a date with him, what inspired them to be attracted to him to go out on a date with him?

It's no different than a man not wanting to be in a relationship with an obese woman or a woman with 5 kids by 5 different men.
We all have the ability to lower our standards to the point of getting with anyone that shows the slight interest. Men can pick and choose just as much as women. In fact, I'd say that men have more power in relationships than women, since most men don't want to be in a relationship and most women do. Women may be the 'gatekeepers' to sex, but men are the 'gatekeepers' to a relationship.
Plenty of men looking for long term relationships out here. Hard to take a woman seriously when sex is given out so easy.
