   All dating apps are misclassified. They should be under contraceptives.

   The same problem on every platform. 80% men and few women who get so picky that most men will never reach their standards.

   I fear for most young men dating is over. And I fear what will happen when societies have large swathes of men with no connection to society, no jobs, no friends, no wives, no families.

      Do you fear that for most young women dating is over? Because one can't happen without the other.

         Young single women do not have the geopolitical consequences that young single men do, for reasons that I cannot pretend to know.

            Men are evolutionary wired to seek money and status. When they find ordinary routes to these blocked, they discover that violence is a shortcut. That this is the same the world over across every income and culture indicates an underlying equilibrium rather than a specific case.

               This sounds really interesting, do you have any studies to link?
