Behold the success of “feminism”.

No kidding! Finding a decent and successful enough man is not an easy task these days!

If schools, universities and employers are going to systematically discriminate against men, women will have to get used to marrying down economically.

Ok. Degreed. $53k+ every year going on 30+ years. Where are the women? They got their own money. Don’t need the likes of me. So it’s MY issue?

“unmarried men, as they are right now, we can’t know for sure what their potential is going to be”


From my experience that goes double for women.

I know linemen with HS degrees only that make +200K.
I guess these “educated women” prefer a man with a B.A. that makes 60K in a soul sucking, cubicle bound, dead end job...

My BA in Gender Studies and 3/4 time job at Victoria Secret doesn’t impress you?

THESE WOMEN ARE IMPOSSIBLE!

Rare to find a woman marrying down.

The fact that a guy may work as some sort of technician with a two-year degree does not necessarily make him less smart than a spouse with a Masters Degree.

It’s another 80/20 deal. 80% of women are competing for 20% of men. Good for (some) men bad for most women. The funny part is this is what they (thought) they wanted.

When I was in my 20’s,women never gave me the time of day.
Now in my 60’s, if I had the time, I could date a new woman every week for the next year.

I don’t have the time and its not my personality.
I AM having fun however!

I can see the need to marry a financially secure man. But where does the need to marry a college brainwashed man come into play?

Earning $53,000 is not that tough without a degree if you are willing to work. Many of the technical trades (electrician for example) start there with a low-life blue collar technical education. A few weeks of OJT will get many a $100,000 per year trucking job in the oil patch.

There’s too much emphasis on the college degree. I know of a few examples of people with college degrees that are just dumb as a box of rocks. The degree shows you have been educated, and does not mean you are smart. AOC is a shining example.

Women in Workforce + Offshoring + Open Borders = Subsistence Jobs for Men

The economy is supposed to work for the nation. A nation that doesn’t support families is no nation at all, just a train hurtling towards oblivion.

America is facing a significant shortage of highly educated “economically attractive” unmarried men who earn at least $53,000 and have a college degree. And the situation could result in unmarried women remaining unmarried or marrying less well-suited partners, a study says.

Really? All those millions of men we are importing from Mexico aren't highly educated and “economically attractive”?

Gee. Well, we better keep trying.

Due to “feminism”, there’s also a shortage of “real” women out there...

Marriage is more and more an achievement of status.


If marriage is an achievement status won’t more people want to get married? Or am I missing something? I don’t follow the logic.

Because they know they might end up giving away half their sh*t to some hateful b*tch?
