I mean, aren't both sides to blame with this?

For men, they aren't improving on themselves. A lot of guys blame the world and women for being single, without self-improvement and lack of direction.

For women, they can be picky. Because more women are in the workforce, more of them are educated and don't need to rely on men either, they don't have the interest in finding one too.

Or will I be called an incel saying this?

I know at leastt 11 women around my age who are all pretty hot and pretty single. Yes they have sex, some more than others. They all claim to struggle finding boyfriends. I will not go into why I've no interest in dating any of them but I do beleive they are struggling.

At my new job, this one woman is really attractive and friendly, she has a ring on her hand but she lives with her mom and acts single. I don't wanna pry, she did tell me that she'd go out with me anytime. As a co-worker, I won't do that though.

One of the women showed me her dating profile and she talks to guys lets just say are not "equally yolked" and I reallyy thought she would be talking to better looking or more successful guys. She gets nowhere with them, but she has some issues within herself. And I honestly don't think that she is truly attracted to those guys either. She seems so unethusiaistic about them.

Here's the tldr

Single men are far more likely than single women to be looking for a relationship or dates 61% vs. 38%. This gender gap is especially apparent among older singles.

Among singles who are not looking to date, having more important priorities right now and just enjoying the single life are among the most common reasons cited. Non-daters younger than age 50 are particularly likely to say they have more important priorities at the moment.

Okay so more priorities for women, guess I was half right there.

Didn't think so many of them would cite harrassment from men as a reason. Thats kinda disgusting. Some men really don't know how to act after Metoo? Literally act like a normal human being. But I guess some of these guys have lost touch in reality.

I can compare this to a lot of guys here in North London. I swear some of them here are fucking children. Especially seeing how they act on Instagram. But then I do see some girls acting the same way too.

Either way I really do blame technology as a biggest factor for the disconnect here. Thats a personal opinon, even though its cited in the article.

Was referring to this:

A majority of the overall public (65%) says the increased focus on sexual harassment and assault in the last few years has made it harder for men to know how to interact with someone theyre on a date with.

I have no idea if this would translate to personal experience for men in London, but thats a staggering percentage.

Honestly, me too has definitely changed how I interact with women. Yeah acting like a decent human is obvious, but I'm less likely to make the first physical move and hesitant or any suggestive comments. I thought I was alone.

And I do think technology/online dating has made it harder. If you don't go out of your way to be sociable and/or don't have many friends in a mixed crowd, you are gonna act more awkward.

What you just described "for men" is what is really BOTH SIDES with this phenomena. Plenty of modern women don't bother trying to keep themselves sexually attractive ACCORDING TO MEN'S STANDARDS and yet still expect to find exceptional male partners willing to overlook that. Many woman ALSO need to consider improving themselves to remain competitive just as they expect the men to. And naturally the women who choose not to take any of that into consideration are typically the one's ignored or used like tissue by top tier men they seek. Used, but never proposed to. Sex with successful attractive men no longer equates to being a high value woman with said men, not in the 21st century west. It just means a higher chance to get your foot in their door, nothing more.

To be a high value choice in the eyes of high value men (worth commitment) is a different ballgame compared to what women look for in a man. HV men are generally not looking at a woman's career, degrees, earnings, etc. They're looking at her physical fitness, beauty, social skills, aptitude, and femininity. That's what many of them care about, take it or leave it. She could be working at Burger King and be a considered a queen by a millionaire playboy if she's got those positive traits.

I'm saying if a college educated woman with a successful career making over 100k a year can still rate as an ugly toad in the eyes of successful educated high value men simply because she lacks fitness, friendliness (to men), and femininity. Those 3 F's a big deal when talking about male attraction to women. They're not the only attributes they look for, but they are vital in keeping their attraction.

Less people are dating, but millions are still regularly hooking up or at least trying to (even if they won't admit it).

Why not?

I definitely believe that men and women today do not care, and also rather just sit and complain about what the opposite sex actually wants out of a partner. I firmly believe that. you see it in many women and you see it in incels. They know what they can do, they just don't care and are entitled/angry about it. And they basically externalize all responsibility for their situation to the opposite sex. They also make endless other ancillary excuses.

65% of dating women have experienced at least 1 out of six different types of harassment from someone they dated in the past.

This is all in the article of course which nobody is reading and is more than content with spouting off their armchair expert hypothesis when the answers they're trying to get are right there in the fucking article.
