This would sound like a good project if it weren't that you don't believe they're gf material. I'm not sure what the point of asking them out is, but you never know; you might be pleasantly surprised.

Women are in powerful positions now. More are educated than men. The wage gap is a myth that has been successfully argued many times.

Women do not have to worry about raising children alone. They can easily attract men now with no effort and are able to live off of the government. My cousin had a baby with an unknown man. She got to go to college for free because of this (I had to serve time in the military and go through some grueling experiences to get the same thing that she got for being stupid and irresponsible).

I'm not going to go into sexual assault (and the veracity of the vast majority of the claims), but suffice it to say that I don't believe that this is a strong point.

And you wonder why women don't like you and you can't get girlfriend?

No. Most of them are not girlfriend material.

One rejected me previously (but she seems to be coming around lately). I don't date women that have previously rejected me. Another sleeps around. The third is too flirty with people. The fourth is very cool, but too old. The fifth is too lazy and fat (but I'm attracted to her and want to sleep with her).

Only the final one is potential girlfriend material. But I suspect that I may have to work too hard.

Women do like me and I CAN get a girlfriend.

What gave you the idea that I can't?

Not to mention that a woman's worth is still somewhat dependent on how attractive she is and not WHO she is. But whatever. We have no struggles.

Oh, sorry. I got you mixed up with the other complaining guys that can't get girlfriends and then blame it on the women and complain about how easy it is for women.

I do think women have things extremely easy. However, that doesn't mean that I can't get a girlfriend.

Yea, military is hell, I did the army guard for blip of time and basic was hell I cant even imagine what things like buds or ranger training is like and then these guys that get deployed to some crap hole for 3 out of their 4 year hitches. I think the only people that join these days are people that desperately need a financial out.

I would rather have student loan debt and work for 20/hr than every touch the military again. The only exception would be if I were fast tracked as a fighter pilot, but even that is questionable now because it would likely be to fight the Russians who are fighting the muslims so we would in effect be supporting the people who hate us.

What ever possessed you to join the military, was it the lies of some training they were going to give you or some duty station etc?
