Dating easier for guys or girls?

[madoka]

I argued with a woman who was complaining about dating. I think it's a lot easier for girls and she felt the opposite.

If I were an average looking girl, I'd go to car shows, play video games, hang out on ATOT, go to shooting ranges, comic cons, etc. I'd have guys lining up. It would be shooting fish in a barrel at that point.

What could an average looking guy do in comparison? Buy bespoke suits, fancy vacuums and trash cans and hope to attract a mate?

What could an average looking guy

Go fat.

Depends, is the girl a fattie? If yes.... maybe. If not, fuck no. It doesn't get any easier than dates literally coming to you.

American women are a victim culture though, no matter how easy something is on the face of it they will forever try to convince you that taking out the trash, doing the laundry, or applying for jobs is the equivalent to 16 hours of slave labor in 110 degree heat.

 

[vi edit]

Far too many factors involved to make a blanket statement. I think that self sufficient, attractive women can afford to be more selective and that is perceived as being "harder" to find a date.
Men can often have a less prohibitive checklist that allows them to be a bit more freewheeling.

There's also an issue of age and windows of opportunity. Men are penalized much less than women for being older and opens up their dating pool more.

So your saying your hot? or not so?

I think the difference for men and women when it comes to the concept of dating also boils down to the end game of the relationship. People tend to generalize and think all women are looking for a life partner and that men are just looking for casual sex. Through these glasses the men would have it easier because they don’t have to be so choosy.

I think it is balanced on whole. There is a dater, and a datee, on every date.

Way to generalize! I wouldn’t even say it would be correct to say “most American women,” in regards to that statement. “Some,” maybe.

It's not easy for anybody involved. People suck, and the worst of them want to date you.

Ah, so you've met.

 

[FerrelGeek]

So glad I don't have to deal with this. I'd seriously hate to be back in the dating set. One bit of advice, go VERY slow with artistic girls. They can be very interesting and creative, but sooner or later, the oddities kick in. Some are certifiable.

 

[Thebobo]

Yes but its Fattà

 

[purbeast0]

It's easy as shit for both men and women now with dating apps like Tinder.

 

[highland145]

Pattà Fattà...I think I know that chick.

 

[CuriousMike]

Dudes historically have to do the bulk of the asking. And the getting rejected.
Women just dish out the rejection.

Harder for dudes. Historically.

 

[SamQuint]

The problem is everyone wants to date a perfect 10. Most of us poor bastards are likely a 5 at best. If we tried to date 3s or below we might do ok but just can't / don't find them attractive at all. If we try 6 and above we strike out.

I think women have it worse. Even the 5s think they are 8 or 9s and only want to date 10s.

This does not even account for money. Most guys probably don't care how much or little money a women has. But I think women tend to be very concerned about money.

About to get flamed in 3 2 1...

You just described 99% of women.

 

[turtile]

I think it's generally equal but women are much more selective so they usually try to find someone as perfect as possible.

Yo, you wanna fuk?
Yea bb where?

Women are more selective because they can be, hence it is easier for them.

I don't know about guys in general, but for me its been damn near impossible.
Even back when I was cute, skinny, and had a full head of hair I rarely found girls interested in me.

You know what? Its way easier for girls to get dates. Short men get nothing. A short woman can get tons of guys, even if she's not pretty. If she stays in shape and goes out & meets people & talks to people, she'll be very popular.
A lazy, unfocused, unmotivated, chronically unemployed woman can get dates if she has a good personality. A bitch can get dates if she cute OR tall OR built nicely. She doesnt even need all 3.

On the other hand, once they're actually IN a relationship, women are way more tolerant of bullshit than men are. They'll put up with verbal abuse, physical abuse, infidelity, and general ass-clownery for years before leaving a deadbeat asshole loser.

So maybe it kinda makes sense they're a lot more picky before starting relationships?

I think it's harder for women. Yeah, getting rejected sucks, but if you act like a douche you can probably pick up a lot of crazy chicks anywhere. Women probably have a tougher time with the actual dating part - there tend to be more male than female creeps, I think.

 

[highland145]

Damn losers, just pick up your Moms at my house.

Unless I'm at your house and then I need a wet wash cloth.


Losers.

No, you cant.

Trust me.
