1) women were more limited, so they "settled" more 2) the "winner" males, which are DOMINATING dating apps, would be reduced in scope of "stealing" mates, which also leads back to women "settling" more 3) the dating apps and communication that comes with the internet have increased visibility to the inequality relative to the "civilized ideal" of monogamy A lot of incels are accused of assuming privilege that a man deserves dates, etc. And really, that does underpin a lot of the incel anger: "I followed the rules, worked hard, got job, behave, did as I was told" which is really what the bargain was with "surplus males" from the last couple hundred years: don't cause too many issues, fit in rather than rebel/usurp/raid, and your odds of mating go way up. Women of course think this is nonsense, they were limited by the "male dominated" system. Sociology has said for decades that being in a reasonably stable relationship is good for the male/female and civilization in general. That carnal desire to just chase the most physically attractive hunk of mean has some actual truth, but in civilization it also leads people to bad relationships and decisions more often.
