I also don’t think dating apps help the situation at all. You can find enough people obsessed with characteristics like height on them to give you further evidence for your wacky theories, especially if you have a cognitive bias to look for behavior you find unjust. Just go outside once to see all straight men don’t have to be 6’ or above to find a partner. Apps like Tinder have probably caused a lot of harm to mental health for its most frequent users.

Apps like Tinder have probably caused a lot of harm to mental health for its most frequent users. Yeah. And there are good reasons why women can be picky on dating apps and such. Unless you are a female, or you have female friends explaining it to you, you have no idea what it's like to be a woman on a dating site. The deluge of dudes expressing interest is massive. You've got to narrow it down somehow. It's honestly kind of like when companies get hundreds of applicants for a single job. They have to cut down the pool somehow. Also, what people are looking for on Tinder is not necessarily what they want in a longer term partner. A woman on Tinder looking for a fling might have some pretty specific physical attributes in mind. That is not representative of what that same woman might want to actually partner with. (Same is true for men, obviously) It's easy to see why an incel, without somebody to explain a woman's perspective to him, could get completely the wrong idea.
