It's probably just my age, but I suppose if I were a woman I wouldn't be trying to date men anymore either, I'd probably be tired of their crap too!
Funny observation. When I was bouncing at clubs, I'd have women come up to me complaining that all men were interested in was sex and they didn't seem to value their personality or other skills. I'd look at them and tell them they spent a ton of money and time showing off their assets to sexually attract the men, what did you expect? They're only buying what you're selling!
I'd have men do the same, calling all women gold diggers. I'd give them the same lines...you're trying to show off your assets...what do you expect?
Although the article is specifically about men choosing not to date woke women, this is not really a men vs women issue. Fact of the matter is men, women and any mix in between can call themselves a woke person. Regardless of their sex, as many have correctly pointed out, hanging out with a woke person is about as fun as a trip to the dentist.
Who wants to walk on eggshells when interacting with these grown up babies? Not me!!!!!!! I'm sure there are plenty of stories where young ladies are refusing to date woke men. Bottom line is these people are annoying. Looks like the reverse backlash is occurring and NOBODY wants to interact with them.
Also know, get woke go broke. If you are not woke, dating some one that is woke, will make you also go broke. Woke women want nice things too, even nicer and finer items than non-woke women.

That's fair.
One story from the other side (I was in my mid 40s), and this guy leads off on a general rant about how women let themselves go. I'm thinking "yeah, yeah, I know. Your wife got overweight and cut her hair short", or some version of this.
Then he got more specific and was ranting about shoes. How women now days have no pride, and turning dumpy. Now you know, I will NEVER go out with this guy.... but it's getting interesting and it was a slow night.
So I asked him to elaborate, and what is the problem?
The problem he had, and his whole rant came down to: women in the down town area, who leave the office for lunch and change from heels to tennis shoes (oh yeah, and wearing them to and from the bus).
Then the standard insta sexting. I had to ask one guy why in the world he thought it was appropriate to be asking my views on oral sex before he had even asked my name?
I gotta million of 'em.
None-the-less, I like men in generally the same ratio that I like women.

Oh yeah...the insta sexting....I hate that! I even had women sexting before we met...we would of course never meet after that.
I guess dating wise I do wish it were the 50's...I'd love to just casually go out and do activities and get to know them before jumping in bed. I'm not talking about playing games either...just simply getting to know each other first. Let a little tension build.
FWIW, I agree with that guy about the shoes, just not in that context. I totally get the swap for comfortable shoes.
I do miss dresses and heels though, and women knowing how to be feminine and use their feminine allure to get a mans attention rather that shaking her booty or milkshake or whatever the heck they're shaking and twerking or whatever...Gah! I'm too old!
I have had straight men in their 20s and 30s who I have known who refuse to be along with women who they don't know well because they of the possible allegations of this and that.
Im gay and always act very stoic around women. I never say things that could be misintepreted around women. I always act very robotic around women also.
I would have been prefered to have been straight in the 1950s and 1960s, but this day in age I am glad I am gay because straight men seem to have lots of allegations towards them for anything not politically correct. They have to be very cautious to never say one wrong thing these days.
It seems as though more straight men though are afraid of allegations or just that one non-politically correct thing they say ruining their career or coming back to haunt them.
I have had many roommates over the years, who may be mostly straight on the Kinsey scale but not all the way who seem to prefer being around men just based on the fact with women they always have to have their guard up according to what they have told me.
Even being a gay man, I would never say anything that wasn't completely politically correct around women these days in any sort of environment.
Woke is not based on metoo movement. Metoo movement stems from woke culture. First thing we have to ask is. How did we get here? The woke culture has come out of Academy in the white anglosphere nations, and to a lesser extent Ireland and South Africa which contain and use white Anglo elite systems. Woke culture does not exist in black and brown Anglo States like a Belize, Jamaica, or a Guyana for example, or former British India or Singapore. These ideas only exist in areas with large populace of whites and small minority groups, or a small influential white populace such as South Africa.
Ideas of gender, sex, Islam, undocumented, women, race and others mainly come out of the academy in the Anglosphere universities. These ideas also don't exist in Mexico. In places like France and Italy, metoo movement has failed, but is successful in Canada. Cuba which has a large black population wont be able to do BLM rallies against the communist government. Try doing Islam issues in Communist China, and the Chinese will put you in a gulag. Try to do feminism in Russia, you will be placed in prison. Try doing LGBT in North Korea, and see how will that go for you. Even though Feminism, LGBT and black movements exist globally. What is unique about the Anglosphere is that, Anglosphere is able to form a quasi alliance between LGBT, Black movements, Feminism, indigenous rights, undocumented, gender and to some extent the disable. While in the Hispanic world, Lusophony and the Francophone, such ideas work separately and don't form an alliance due to such groups don't really work together. Example can feminism and LGBT work together? No because those ideas clash and run against each other. But in the Anglosphere, LGBT, Women and black must work together on issues and must be collective eventhough such groups intersect and clash.
Being woke encompasses black, LGBT, women, Islam, undocumented, disability, gender etc. Being white, being straight, and being male are bad things, and must be absolved.
