Plenty of men have no problem with dating - even some ugly men who still manage to get the women they want. So if you struggle, it's not because you're a man. it's simply because something about you isn't attractive to the women you want.

This goes for men and women. trouble dating just depends on every individual and what they're working with in their package.

Having a tough time dating isn't against the law or a human rights violation, but if complaining about it is the route you want to take, have at it.

I had it bad with women once. With the help of my stepfather and friends I have improved with women greatly. I just had a late start due to being shy.

Women these days kill me. You really do.

You can't even admit how much privilege you all have these days with everything. And you love to make up things about "human rights violations" and oppression.

Wah wah wah! Have fun with your unfairly awarded, affirmative action scholarships and your ability to choose men out of the catalog of OLD.

It is very interesting that you attempt to shame men that call you out on your BS though.

For the record, I actually do attract women. However, I resent the fact that the higher quality ones expect me to put in work to get them, while they sit up in their ivory towers and treat men however they want.

To get men to screw them.. yeah women have that very easy but what woman wants to be used as a specimen cup? Finding someone compatible is very difficult.

Pretty bad if your an disabled, elderly, minority female.


Life will not always be fair, and complaining about it won't help a whit.
All good points.

EVERYONE has some "unfairness" (as perceived, anyway) in his/her life. Sometimes for an entire lifetime. Exactly what that thing is (or what those things are) vary among people but nobody gets an easy ride - even if you think they do. Nobody gets out of life unscathed or has everything go his/her way and yes, life is a lot of WORK. For everybody.

It's not a keeping tabs sort of thing, and to present it as such and try to support that idea that there should be identical checks and balances on just one specific category is the stuff of grade school, IMO...not something that adults feel compelled to do.

This is a viewpoint that comes from someone that has privileges.

If you were on the low end of the totem pole (like men are, for the most part), you would not think this way.

Again, women's lack of understanding of the struggles of men truly astound me.

Dude, I'll tell you what I told another person here, get a sex change operation. Seriously, if you don't like being a man and you feel you have a raw deal while women get favorable treatment. Do what Bruce/Caitlin Jenner did, change your gender and see if your life truly does change. If nothing else you would at least get to see what it's like to be a woman and see if you are right.

Why should I have to alter my gender to get equal rights?

The suggestion of this is disgusting.
