if only women gave more cemen a chance

Having lots of options sucks if nearly all the options are inadequate.

its also not like we can rely on the men we are actually interested to make moves, since theyre usually the actual respectable and respectful ones lol.

As you touched on though, men deal with the same, so how are women worse off here? Most women have abhorrent personalities, men just suck it up and deal with it. There's a reason men don't look for great personality and it's the same reason many women (older ones particularly) don't go for looks -- an absolute dearth of options

Because women don't complain about how have it so much better in dating (Besides, like, having not to worry about being kidnapped, raped, or killed nearly as much, which is a statistical fact).

I've literally watched my roommate go through twelve different men she's tried to date and they have been, exclusively and undeniably, weirdos or assholes once you got to know them better. Now granted, probably three of them she should have known better, but I am dead ass serious here. All mid-20s to mid-30s with jobs and cars. All absolute fucking losers. Most through dating sites but a few through personal connections.

Ironically, the only guy that is probably a good fit for her that I've seen is engaged to someone else (And their relationship is taking a dive). She works with him and I know they got close to physical intimacy before they made some boundaries. Ah, forbidden love.

Now, this is not a man only thing--Plenty of women are horrible dating candidates too. A lot of men will just put up with misery for some strange though. Still, I really don't think many of these relationship-challenged dudes realize what the dating landscape is actually like for women. Having lots of options sucks if nearly all the options are inadequate.

She can have terrible taste in men and it still be true that women have it much easier when dating.

It's a firmly held belief of mine that most men are steadfast weirdos, mostly because they're not emotionally in-tune with themselves or are outright emotionally stunted.

That doesn't really make sense, most women should be weirdos too if that's the cause

why? How does that follow?

If in any group of humans most men are weirdos.

And women and men occur at approximately the same rate in any sufficiently large group of humans.

Then most women should also be weirdos.

How many times have you seen a spoiled brat of a woman or heard one say "I don't know how to feel?"
They're every bit as emotionally immature.

Women only have to be somewhere and a guy will ask them out. Its been known since the dawn of time.

not knowing how to feel sometimes, especially when expressed as an off the cuff comment, doesnt always mean emotional immaturity. Hell even acknowledging that you dont know how to feel implies some level of emotional intelligence.

The post I was responding to said they're more in tune w/ their emotions though. Surely this would imply they know how they themselves actually feel, lol.

sure - maybe? More than men probably, I stand by my original point.

My take is that if your only measure for dating success is getting a tinder match and going for a drink and having the option to get laid, women have it easier.

But this is a pretty useless bar to measure, because most women hate this part of dating. By the actual thing that women care about more, dating is so much worse for them.

In short, both men and women are out here thinking they have it worse in the dating game. If you're a fuckboy woman or a handsome softboy, you have it easy.

Or perhaps men are able to more efficiently manage their emotions.

Specifically in that they can go on about their day after learning what Debbie said about them.

Also I think because so many men lament the fact that they don't get enough matches, or don't match with the people they want to date, they overlook how it would feel to be presented with an all you can eat shit buffet.
