"Young men must re-prioritize real-life relationships and intimacy attuned to the shift in priorities that women have already made" The priorities of women in their 20s are dating men in their 30s. This new stat and the accompanying Boomer commentary is genuinely one of the funniest memes so far in 2023. They literally don't understand the world they created for future generations.

30s single women complain 30s men being creeps for younger girls

  I haven't seen that, really. I have seen people interpreting such age gap as a sign of guys immaturity or a general red flag for "that dude is looking to take advantage of you". I have never seen the "I would date that guy but he dates younger girls" thing. Having younger partner is status symbol for a men to show off to other men. It does not make him look like good potential partner to adult women tho.

    A recent example is Leonardo DiCaprio and his new partner have upset a few women on Reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/TwoXChromosomes/comments/10w8fv2/the_men_defending_leonardo_dicaprio_are_disgusting/ https://www.reddit.com/r/TwoXChromosomes/comments/10w8fv2/th...

      They claim the relationship is predatory which is exactly what I wrote.

        > I have never seen the "I would date that guy but he dates younger girls" thing. Reading between the lines, I think many women would want to date Leo, but he dates younger girls. > a general red flag for "that dude is looking to take advantage of you" Flags fly both directions: Young people take advantage of an older person in dating (see sugar babies, mail order brides, or a model taking advantage of Leo's $300m lifestyle).

    > It does not make him look like good potential partner to adult women tho. I’m pretty someone who can and actively dates someone younger doesn’t care in slightest about opinion of people who are not in his priority bucket.

      I did not said he cares. I said that he is not seen as lost potential partner.

    This is such a strange response. Aren’t women in their 20s adults? Women think of men already having a partner as an indication of him being reliable, which is a positive.

    > I have never seen the "I would date that guy but he dates younger girls" thing. You find it in the "he's a predator" comments. It's the same dynamic as rejected men calling women a lesbian: dealing with rejection by projecting their negative emotions onto the other person. "Good! I didn't want him/her anyway! Who would ever want someone like that?"

  Sour grapes?

  That’s just a complaint related to the shift in power dynamics ( at least not so skewed ) it’s as old as time. Young women do and say things because they can, certain men get away with certain things because they can. Others complain, because they can’t.

  You mean men prefer women who are at peak fertility? No way.
