Specifically in public. Not that I really go anymore, but if you go to a club or a bar women most women don't really seem to go there with any intention of meeting men. Not saying there's anything wrong with it, of course, but most just socialise with their friends, and if they say dance, will just dance with their female friends and ignore you. Of course if you try to engage some are more receptive but others make it clear they're not interested. Or maybe it's because I don't have 'game' or am not attractive to them? Were things any easier in the past? Someone in another thread women in clubs even seem more interested in other women than men. While I don't think women are turning into lesbians, I feel this society has got so narcissistic they probably care more about what others are wearing, looking sexy and hot to get that self-esteem boost, and only want male attention to get that boost. Not all but many. Not that I'm into hook-up culture I just want to meet women and get to know them, maybe even make friends.etc, but increasingly it seems rather futile.

Hypergamy?

You also have to account for all the attention from various sources a woman may receive ...

You could wait for "the Wall" to strike ...

You could try another market ... go overseas.

Alot of clubs/bars I have been too have been aggressive sausage fests and I often time carry a consealled weapon and drink very little becuase its really sketchy. Not enough war to kill off males so they are all in the clubs fighting over women and the women know it.

Overseas is about it unless you have that suave that women want or are willing to get your teeth knocked out to get a woman to smile at you. Or settle DEEP.

Who wants to meet strange unvetted men? Especially those who would try to romantically engage you without knowing the first damn thing about you?

Sounds unsafe and a waste of time.

WAIT. Your title says women are interested in meeting men, and your OP says they are not. Which is it?

As long as you are going to grossly generalize about an entire gender, you might as well be consistent.

Those aren't the public places where women go to meet men. Men are looking in the wrong places. Try coffee shops, grocery stores, lectures, art fairs, concerts, classes of all sorts, festivals, community events and organizations, and so forth.

This. Proofread your thread titles before posting, OP. Of COURSE women are interested in meeting men. In public, at private parties, anywhere. But some of the women who go to clubs are there just to unwind with friends.

Take a look at another thread that's new today. Someone posted that a female friend of his is gorgeous and very sweet, but men never approach her when she goes out to bars and clubs. They look at her, but don't approach. And she's there for the sole purpose of meeting men. So...go figure.

Women seem like they don't want to be bothered. Whenever, I am in public women always seem to have Mod cut: Language.. I won't talk to a woman who does not want to approached.

Very appropriate. Approach the women who look approachable.
