A lot of women are tempting for me but they don't give off any positive vibes towards me that would lead me to believe it would be worthwhile to approach them. It's a common misconception that only men can be socially awkward or inept.
Exactly. If you're not getting any positive vibes/signs why bother approaching. You would be approaching someone who clearly does not want you to.
I hear the 21st century and "equal rights" thing being thrown around often about male/female roles. I have to wonder if this is why the divorce rate is over 50% and it is taking longer for marriage-minded people to find mates. I'm old fashioned and I like for a man to be a man and a woman to be a woman. This can be done with mutual respect and adoration for the person you are with without being sexist. It's just that most of our modern generations don't know how, have not been taught how and aren't trying to learn.
I'm sure some women blur the equal rights line as do some men, this doesn't make either of them right. If you believe in values find your equal and forget what the modern world says. What do they know?
The divorce rate isn't over 50%, and "equal rights" has nothing to do with why marriage-minded people have difficulty finding mates. For one thing, people don't pair off in college as much as they used to for a number of reasons: 1. Many are working their way through college, and don't have time to socialize, 2. Many recognize they're not mature enough to pair off and get married at such a young age, 3. Job opportunities for women have opened up, so women are busy getting established in careers first, and putting off marriage.
This means that overall, people are getting around to thinking about marriage later than before, generally. Also, there isn't as much social support for marriage-minded people to help them find mates as there was in bygone eras. People also are less willing to pair off and get married just for the sake of being married. They're holding out for love and a good match.
Just to name a few trends contributing to later marriages, and more difficulty finding a match.
of course, he knows i am right, he just doesnt want to admit it.
Right about what? If it's being ourselves then yes you our right. If it's blaming the faults of modern dating and divorce on people not following gender roles well then......

I see women everyday that I would like to approach. But they look so mean and combative that I don't even bother. Besides, I'd have to cold approach them and I don't talk to women who are strangers.

Where do you live, the Israeli West Bank? lol Dude, noplace in the US could be this bad. I'm calling BS. Seriously.
With the right green light from a woman a man might be willing to take a chance but the problem is that a lot of times the light looks more like it is yellow so you must make a desicion to either take a chance and run it and get burned or stop right before you get to it.
