Lurker > SwayM

I dont think anyone has it better or worse in the grand scheme things. But I do think something fundamental has flipped in the way we discuss issues pertaining to men.

Hmmm, who should we believe on what the dating experience is like for women online? Countless women who directly experience it and tell a consistent story on the dangers? Or SwayM, who has never experienced it and never will?

Human beings have long understood that being surrounded by water but being unable to drink it is a death sentence equal to being stranded in a desert. I'm not sure why you don't understand what the average peasant in Babylon surely understood.

My post says all it needs to on this. I qualified that its my opinion that their perspective is hyperbolic BS. But I also said it cant be proven like the male experience. But you could also just go on YouTube and see any number of videos where women try tinder as a man and see how their perspective switches. Idk how much proof that is but why is it always so eye opening for them to see how different it is?

Also you really got lost in that analogy.

Thats just the thing. The issues arent different.

one very frustrating about this conversation because no matter how many times its brought up. It doesnt seem to get through that men also share these exact same problems on top of their own.

Imagine having all the same issues of trying to find a good match that doesnt have just as many red flags and issuesalso using an infinitesimally smaller dating pool.

You can talk about problems men face. But the second you even loosely blame those problems on women or feminism, the moment you invite a battle of the sexes, you ensure that the conversation can't be productive. Because helping men at the cost of hurting women can't, won't, and shouldn't gain widespread support.

I definitely am not blaming women here and don't condone it for one second.

But can we talk about this at all without the inverse happening? How about "Online dating is shittier for men than it is for women"

Isn't an invitation to assume that's a shot at women and blaming them for the problem. It doesn't invite people to dismiss the problem as nonexistent or that women actually have it worse. And you're an incel for even talking about it.

If we want to have productive conversations, it's a two way street.

But dating culture is terrible for women too. Getting a match isn't the end goal.

Who said getting a match is the end goal. It's not. But what it is, is a VERY important checkpoint that needs to happen in online dating for anything more to proceed. And if in this example a man has a 98% chance of not getting a match...no amount of "women have it bad too" is doing anything for anyone.

To address the "One is dying of thirst in a desert. The other is in a swamp" analogy.

The man dying in the desert can be statistically proven here. This is a quantifiable experience.

The swamp, is literally just how the women are choosing to define their dating pool. It's speculative, and imho, a hyperbolic, poor representation of the reality of dating.

If we're comparing dating to resources humans need to live in this analogy. Then just imagine being that man in the desert who can't find water for miles in any direction and telling them "Yeah I've got it bad too, there's water all around me but none of it's drinkable." Would he even have the capacity to understand that as a problem from his perspective? And is that actually the reality of the woman? It's not something that can be measured like the pictures in the OP. It's also, imho, a load of bullshit.

Is that some version of Hinge where it's big dicks only?

Exactly what I was gonna say lol.

Glob posted...

Its already been explained by another user. He probably comes across as desperate. Thats never a good look.

He probably comes across as desperate? To whom? No one else can see his swipe history.

Its a less than 2% chance he swipes and matches with someone. But fuck him right, because its his fault the odds are against him for some reason? Its apparently also his fault the algorithms he didnt make can potentially punish him further for just trying to swipe more.

BunkerBoy posted...

He is you, isn't it? You seem like a desperate redpiller

Hes all men on dating apps, its literally just statistics. Yall are on one.

Glob posted...

Perhaps the fact that he isnt choosy is part of the problem.

I dont plan on visiting the reality where this makes sense. Come back to ours please.

skullmagic2 posted...

like the guy in OP who swiped right 96% of the time

Look at why? He swiped almost 29000 times and got less then 500 matcheswho can afford to be choosy with those odds.

ScazarMeltex posted...

They do have it worse, because they have to worry about the fact that every dude they come into contact with there could be a fucking monster who might rape them. Add to that the anxiety of a criminal justice system that is more willing to protect the rapist than it is to punish them. Especially if he's a wealthy white dude.

Also, shut the fuck up.

Thats my fault. I wrote that kinda vague and left myself right open to any leap to the worst what ifs we can imagine. I was simply referring to the fact that people always argue in these topics that more numbers is actually worse for the woman than having less matches for the man. If you wanna jump to hypothetical rape scenarios Im not gonna argue against that.

Will_VIIII posted...

The women do have it worse in the sense that they have to filter through a number of shitty profiles and people who indiscriminately swipe

This is exactly what I was expecting.

Why would the woman have it worse, if men still have to filter through shitty people. This isnt an issue exclusive to women and having more matches. Men still get Shitty matches and dont have the luxury of having more people to fall back on.

bro absolutely tanked his tinder mmr hes never going to match with anyone except bots and 2/10s with a ratio that bad

It's goated as a chip flavor, but actually sounds vile for nugs.

Yeah. They tasted like nuclear runoff ngl

Never say never. I might give it a shot. I'd have to get some more info on what goes on with these "ketchup chips" though.

Do you have BBQ chips in the states?

Whatever mad science division they have at BK corporate Im here for it. Theyre always coming up with the craziest shit.

Theyre actually fuckin good btw. Like a saucy ketchup chip coating that is surprisingly delish.

Disney + is fine, except for one major pain the ass that grinds my fuckin gears every time.

When you click on one of your recently watched shows it just immediately starts it up and theres no way to access the episodes and seasons menu. You cant back out to this menu from the episode itself. You have to back out completely to the main menu and go find that exact same show in a different subcategory.

Just copy Netflix guys. Its not rocket surgery.

You could just eat beans and vegetables for the same effect

If you wanna eat beans every day go for it.

Doesnt seem any easier to me than to take a scoop of powder but to each their own. Also I dont think it would hurt in any way to be doing both.

ultimate_reaver posted...

that stuff is expensive. if you're really struggling drink some prune juice or eat some dried apricots

You can get a giant two pack of the powder stuff at Costco for like 15 bucks.

Stop starting sentences with the word or it makes you sound like a turd.

I thought I was having healthy poops, always once or twice a day.

Until I was on that moos, that shit works boi.

I haven't pooped this good in my entire life

I dont care what you say about any other movie in the franchise. If you dont think ROS isnt just the worst in the franchise, its actually one of the worst movies ever madeidk what to tell you. Check yourself.

A very very generic female rapper who has the same flow and lyrics on every song. Every beat shes on sounds the same too.

Can you link me to the best rap youve written

I like this one bar I wrote.

He dont discriminate, he lays crimes on discs and lets them marinate

If you have a full blown meltdown, or just go full Karen on someone working in customer service. You should immediately be placed on house arrest. Act like a child, be put in adult time-out.

Especially if you jump over the counter, throw shit around, destroy the store. Minimum one year house arrest for these fucking morons. I just can't help but feel that the more these videos circulate, the more people think this is an okay thing to do. There needs to be hard and fast punishments.

You mean blacked out?

Why do people put their car in "park" every time the drive-thru line stops?

I could see it if you had to reach out your window to grab your food or drink. Safer to put in park so you don't accidently let off the break.

Sure it is, but this wasn't just some random college party.

Yeah exactly. A Hollywood party has more cache is way more enticing to be at than any random college party.

I4NRulez posted...

I can, i had a friend who would constantly try to get girls drunk. He later raped a drunk girl but she never pressed charges on him

Okay fair enough. This does happen and its awful.

But I also could see a reality where she wanted to be there and wanted to get drunk too.

But whos to say. I wasnt there.

RchHomieQuanChi posted...

Plus, it STILL makes me question every adult's judgment at that party for not making sure there aren't any minors there. That's just basic common sense.

Minors trying to attend parties is a tale as old as time. FFS Jonah Hill literally made a movie about that exact thing

I also dont buy her saying they were forcing alcohol on them. Im sorry but I just dont see it going down like that.

but thats in no way me denying that Jonah assaulted her or that he doesnt sound like a scumbag.

I wondered this too.

Can you even imagine the president of the US being a fuckin badass?

I was just thinking yesterday when one of those tiny ass smart cars drove by me how

1. Youre never going to get laid again, but
2. you can park it anywhere.

Yall need to touch some fuckin grass if youre this desperate to assassinate peoples characters.

im honestly not a fan of the ones that go all the way up the asscrack.

Are they different? I just assumed they were just pulling the same ones as far up as they can.

It seems very trendy to wear everything as high waisted as possible.

When they first became a thing it changed lives everywhere.

But that wasnt enough.

Now girls are wedging them so far up their business theres nowhere for anything to hide.
