I only listened to a few bits but I get where he is going. I saw the OKC report that showed women rated 80% of men as below average in looks. Yes, it is true, women are truly unrealistic about what "average" is (and for the guy who mentioned the word "hamster" this also explains why women consistently view themselves as average when they are in fact fat or otherwise unattractive). However, it doesn't count for all that much. As you know, women view financial stability as being far more important than looks, hence the 5'6" "average looking dude" who is rich will do better than the hot guy who is unemployed and poor. Exception? If you are talking about a one night stand. And now that I have typed that out, I realize that it is a high number of one stands you complainers wish you could have.

No, they're not complaining about finding a 'good girl', they're complaining about finding a 'hot girl'. At least that's the way it is with my guy friends. I don't even know why I bothered opening a new dating account, because all my guy friends just use theirs for hookups.

you won't admit it but you want the same thing, otherwise you wouldn't have bothered.

What's a good man?

Because I'm going to be honest a lot of men who say theyre good(ESPECIALLY in my community) aren't necessarily good they just do what they're supposed to do

I didn't need a "study" to come to this conclusion decades ago. It was quite apparent that more than half of the young single women were only interested in about 10% of men. These men were often quite "happy" to give as many as possible the feeling that they were in the running, as long as they put out.

The next 10% of men were fall back position of these women - a "position" that caused most of them to eventually ask "Where have all the good men gone?"

Among the remaining 80% of men, those who got in a "relationship" generally paid for it in some way that was obvious to men who didn't bother trying.

I've never asked and never heard any men volunteer this. However, I do know who qualifies and the fact is, these guys rarely get much interest from single women under 35.

There are a ton of good men. It's not our fault many women are too stumped to see it.

Who said women believe 80% of men are unattractive? This is garbage.
