I think that one is a wash. I know both men and women who have trouble dating, and most of them are not even unattractive. Of course anyone can technically get a date, if they have no standards.
Can we agree that for both men and women the inability to attract a mate despite having other amazing qualities people look at you as defective.
I've seen some eye-popping strength of women, over the 11 years I've worked in a nursing home, that makes me wish I had a fraction of that strength! Lifting a patient, who's fallen out of bed, onto the bed, or even turning one of these extremely obese patients to change their diaper. All done single-handedly!
And, it appears, they don't work out at gyms either!
Yet, if a patient falls, who do the women nurses turn to first for help? Oh great! There's a male CNA working tonite! I'm in luck!
And whom have I helped on the nights, when there's two male CNA's? Yes, this other male CNA, is small, skinny, and if I go to the room to transfer the patient, I can usually do it single-handedly!
And it's not just that! How many of these female single-Mom CNA's, are working double shifts, or working 40 hours at one facility, and 40 hours at another facility!!! As a Man, no-way-no-way could I physically handle working 80 hours a week with this back-breaking work!!! Ask me to work a double shift? Please!!!
I have, occasionally, taken the wind out of some of these female nurses, and accused them of making sexist remarks (That's a man's job! Like replacing the 5-gallon water jug in the break room), which, today, is appropo!

Um, maybe. But I wouldn't personally. Again I think just about anyone (unless maybe they a coma or something) can find a partner. IMHO if a man or women can't find a partner, it just means they have some standards. An extremely unattractive person, could find an even less attractive partner, if its that important to them. If they don't that, then that just their choice, not a defect. Unless you consider having some standards, to be a defect.

Here's the thing about that is that people jump to conclusion that you are "aiming above your league" you feel "entitled" if a person has some standards but is not dating regularly what ever that means.
Its not so much about attraction but how the person is constantly involved in the "dating game".
If a man or women doesn't participate in the "dating game" than what some would believe should be the regular amount or dismisses it altogether you are considered defective.

Lol I think y'all would probably just wet yourself.
A man can pee standing up - well a woman can too, but it's generally a bit more problematic. You'll have to blame God for that one, an anatomical thing lol.
Yeah double standards will exist forever. Whatever.
Plenty of men can't seem to pee standing up, either, if you take into account the cleanliness of their bathrooms.
