The ugliest, most disgusting men can get any woman they want. My mom's neighbor's son is a drug addict with multiple prison stays under his belt who was recently diagnosed with HIV. He is dating a girl from a wealthy family, and she's going to "wait for him" while he serves his most recent sentence.

A relative of a high school friend is a complete waste, jobless, toothless, ugly, not much going on upstairs. He was married to a woman who is the heiress to a local candy empire. Somehow her family finally intervened, thank goodness.

So all you men who say you have so much to offer, move on up to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area. In no time you'll have an attractive woman from a decent family who also has a decent job. A lot of the women up there take good care of themselves while the men are bald and fat by 35. Dating up there is in the man's favor for sure.
Well, I am a college student so I don't have much to offer right now. Then again, I'm only 25 lol.

Where are these tons of safety nets? I could use one right about now....

Very unusual. There must be more to this story. There's a clamoring for women.

That's true. NOW.

Wasn't the case back then.

Even if I was interested in dating.....it is highly unlikely I would get whoever I want. It never worked out that way so I wouldn't expect it to. I'm not so arrogant to believe I'd have a guy waiting on me hand and foot as soon as I snap my fingers. Life doesn't work that way. Plenty of men I've met wanted me for sex only. I don't consider that having it easy. Coming across someone I want to build and bond with is RARE. For anyone.

Again, in WB-Scranton you don't need to have anything to offer. Just being able to find a college puts you miles above the rest.

Women have it easier when it comes to getting sex for the sake of sex... why, because many guys don't have standards and will have sex with anyone. I had buddies like this in college. They'd sleep with women they didn't even like because hey, sex. Unless you change of the nature of how men act, this truth will always be there. You can't blame women for it.

While some women are just after sex, from my experience and from what I've heard from female friends, most women don't want just sex, they are looking for relationships. And that's where things are equal for both sexes: finding relationships can be hard (sex/=relationship).

Think of it, traditionally the man has to work hard to woo the woman... but after things ignite, who traditionally moves the relationship forward? Who decides when you are exclusive? Who proposes marriage? Usually it's the man who has the advantage after the relationship starts.

In the end, it all evens out. Unless you are one of those unlucky guys who hasn't had a relationship yet, then I can see where your view might be skewed. You just don't have the experience yet of seeing how things work from start to full blown relationship.

That's what guys don't get. Of course it's easy for women to get sex. That counts for nothing.

So, you honestly believe that every woman can just walk out her front door and have guys lined up that want to date her?

Girls, really, its not worth it to talk with people that are SO ignorant, cause, like Mark Twain say, they will drag you to their level and beat you with experience.

It cant be done. Its a worthless headache.


They are not only ignorant, but unwilling to learn, wich is even worse.


I feel very very sad for this kind of people.

Time for the people with a brain to leave this forum, and left the circle of ignorant jerks to dwell in their own fantasyland of ridiculous angry rants, lack of education and awerness.


No self respecting woman with a brain will ever look their way.

Yes, I honestly think that. The overwhelming majority of women can put up a profile on OKC/POF and have 100-200 messages within 24-48 hours. She could put something up on Tinder, make a few swipes and have a date within a few days. She could wear something sexy to a bar on a Friday night and have sex that night.
