True but the article is simply pointing out that career driven women who are in their 30s and single are not so appealing to men. So this point has nothing to do with the article then.
Just because a woman is not ceoing 10k/day as a lawyer doesn't mean she can't have a good/decent career. Not being a doctor doesn't automatically make a woman dumb as a brick. Also a 40 y/o successful single woman vs a 25 y/o college graduate...which do you think is more attractive to a successful middle aged man?

I had to log in to reply to this idiot. Look, either reply to his arguments or don't. Stop repeating the same sentence over and over about how you could respond but "this and that" gets in the way. Far out people who argue like you annoy me. The truth is you have no idea how to respond but you merely disagree with him. We get it. Stop posting now.

He speaks for almost everyone
Decent looking, huh?
It's surprising how objectively you judge a person of the opposite sex based on the fact that you find them attractive, I'm sure most of us did not bother looking up close.
By having higher standards than what they deserve, and going through multiple relationships (flings) only to regret not working hard enough at settling for the best guy she could have got when she was most desirable.
Amen.
And that right there lies the problem, they either wait too long to settle down, or panic and get married to the 'wrong person'.
Which would leave them single and bitter still on the long run. If women aren't looking for what they want in man, and settling for it when it gets close, then it's most likely game over. And don't give me the 'What if Mr.Right still hasn't showed up' line. You are bound to bump into someone who is husband material in the first ten years of your prime, quality life. The fact remains that most women choose to either set higher standards than they can shoot for, or tend to substitute it for slooting it up until their mid-20s, and hoping a WK comes to the rescue as she pulls out the very last mandingo out her fanny.
And yes women do age badly on average, very badly at that. It's common knowledge that men age much more gracefully than women do. They basically start going downhill after 18. If you disagree with this, then sorry, but you are in denial.PhD in Hairloss bro-science

I've watched a friend of mine slay over 100+ girls, he is pretty much a 10 in most women's eyes. Tall, white, good looking, great job, can talk etc..
Recently he started to bang a girl on the side whom another friend had asked on a date. I'm sure many of you can relate to this "X guy asked out Y girl, but Y girl would prefer just to **** Z guy because Z > X"
Honestly I don't think i'll ever get married, I could never trust somebody that thinks like this. In this day and age I would say many women do, because of entitlement that they can do what they want whenever they want. I always wanted to find a woman before I "made it" but looks like this is an impossibility as I find many people (men and women) are so quick to write off a person before they even know them. In terms of women though this just makes me even more jaded towards finding a legitimate partner.
Just my 2cents. If I ever do "make it" I will be part of the 80% that was looked over or at least empathize with them.
ps with that said their are women out there who would criticize me for not committing etc.. but why would I commit to a woman who has, for some reason, decided they want me to be their boyfriend after sleeping around. I never asked for the position, they just seem to think that I should assume it since we had sex.
In summary sloots gonna sloot and muslims/mexicans will basically out breed everyone.

I can sympathize with guys who feel left out of the dating/hook up world. I never had all that much success myself but there is not much you can do other than find joys in other aspects of life. Seeing people hook up so easily while it is hard for you does suck, so I understand. You obviously can't base your self worth on how many women you pull or you will feel unsatisfied. There are so many other interesting things to do, it is not that hard to find satisfaction in other areas of life. But wishing ill on women who rejected you or taking joy in the fact that older women have a hard time finding men is just pathetic. If someone is not attracted to you, they aren't attracted to you. They can't control it, and there is no reason to get mad at them for it. It's obviously from some kind of bitterness, and I do not buy the idea that guys try to make these arguments for any other reason.

Love this part:
"Talking to many women like her, it's intriguing how many look back on past relationships where they let good men get away because they weren't ready. American journalist Kate Bolick wrote recently in The Atlantic about breaking off her three-year relationship with a man she described as ''intelligent, good-looking, loyal and kind''. She acknowledged ''there was no good reason to end things'', yet, at the time, she was convinced something was missing in the relationship. That was 11 years ago. She's is now 39 and facing grim choices."
Pretty much sums up the whole 'i deserve a 10/10' mentality of most women out there.I like my women how I like my coffee crew

I feel the bitterness isn't stemming from the inability to bang dozens of different girls - it's the total write off from girls that many guys legitimately want to try and make a connection with.
I honestly believe a majority of men (ie the "80%") would be happy with a single woman that they find to be attractive (not necessarily what everyone finds attractive). On the other hand I feel most women only want to be with a guy that all their friends find attractive (ie absolutely attractive) which locks out a lot of men from the game and thus creates this bitter feeling.

Yea that is probably true for a lot of guys, I think it largely depends on their environment. Regardless what I am saying is that there is nothing to be gained by dwelling on it. There are people with actual physical and mental disabilities who REALLY have it rough in the dating market, and most of the time they find a way to be content. Feeling down for a bit is okay, but at some point you have to blame yourself (not you literally) for being so bitter and angry.

While I can't deny that there is a degree of bitterness, let's really feel dem feelz guys, I think that when the issue is so manifested and obvious in society that it is beyond "a few bitter men". It is clearly something that is becoming more and more relevant if it is even this highly discussed. I've seen more threads pertaining to this than I have of any world politics, so regardless of if it is even true (which it is) it's obviously perceived as true and therefore true in and of itself. This topic is clearly on the minds of a lot of people. Those people will manifest it regardless of the actual minority that don't believe it is true. So the outcome remains that it IS going to become a large societal influence, and only time will tell how it truly plays out. As it sits right now the same "bitter" men are actually the ones with the upper hand, so why would we sit around and be complaining? Many people in this thread are mis-associating observations with complaints.When you think you can't keep in mind:
"Lesser men have done greater things."
Men with less physical, mental, or potential abilities have produced greater outcomes.
Whatever the reason, lesser men have done greater things than whatever obstacles you have mistakenly convinced yourself you are unable to overcome.

I really don't generally dwell on it, I just enjoy discussing these kinds of things. I do agree that each individual determines their "own path" so to say, but I also love the analysis of the unit as a whole. (I'm a very big data oriented person)
Analyze the entire unit to statistically prepare yourself for the most likely outcome, but keep limitations on how far-reaching your biases are to customize for "outliers" (individual action).When you think you can't keep in mind:
