To the OP, response #3 where you're quoted from an earlier thread using an employment analogy explains your thinking. Why do you think of women as the employer, and as an employer in no particular hurry to fill an opening (had to be said ) and men are unemployed and by implication, need the employer way more than the employer needs them? Why?

An analogy where the applicant/man is pretty well off financially and can take care of his own needs indefinitely (again, ) and so not eager to take just any job is more accurate. Why don't you be that guy, OP? Or set the narrative with the employer women needing to hire someone right away.

You're describing how you feel, and not how things really are, although when you feel something strongly enough it can seem real. But this is a story you're telling yourself. It's your story. Tell one that's happier.

A lot of women would disagree, they aren't getting dates at all. They might feel it's a market for men, not women.

I think it's about equally difficult for both men and women to find a romantic relationship, but perhaps women have slightly higher and more complex standards.

If you were just asking about finding sex, then most women clearly can more easily find sex than most men. However, most women want more than just sex, so it's complicated.

Highly disagree. What is this based on?

Do you ladies take into account the guy's financial status? Do men consider a woman's financial status?

I guess it depends where you live and the people you know. Almost all of my single female friends usually have no problems getting dates. Now, sustaining meaningful relationships is another thing.

I think the average men "give up" after a while. I only know two single guys that I talk to on a regular bases. One of them had hard luck with women but he tries....kinda. He goes for women who are not a good fit for him, he knows this, but he just wants to see if still has game. My other friend just doesn't GAF anymore.

What do you mean by average? How would you describe the average woman?

This is nonsense. Sorry, OP--back to the drawing board, for you.

This. The fact is that both genders struggle. A few of each gender have it easier.
