> There's no female loneliness epidemic because some men have multiple female partners (unlikely) This site is so weird about this issue. It's patently false, and yet so many people on this site think it's happening—that a significant percentage of women are satisfied in a relationship where they share a guy with several other women. > Women might be alone but aren't bothered by it—they don't feel lonely (unlikely) This one doesn't seem that unlikely—or maybe they're not as lonely because they have other social structures in place besides a romantic partner? > So, why do only men complain about being lonely? Another possibility: it's not just men that complain about being lonely, but complaints about loneliness from men and women are taken with a different degree of seriousness from media and/or corporations.
