It's nice for the guys to have it easy for a couple of years, but it's bad for all of us if an entire generation of women find it almost impossible to date because they want to date men with degrees and those don't exist in large enough numbers.
- ghaff 2y agoMaybe. I've gone out with women with advanced degrees and women without undergrad degrees. They've all been smart and I pretty much didn't care about their educational resume. Historically, that simply wasn't an issue in general.
- FredPret 2y agoNot for you - I'm saying it's an issue for them: many (most? all?) university-educated women want to date their peers - men with degrees. This is a huge problem for them when the ratio of graduates are two women for each man.
- ghaff 2y agoFair enough. I'd just argue that "peers" is not solely determined by degrees. Of course, it's easy for me to say I don't care; I have too many of them. But I know a lot of people care a lot.
- FormerBandmate 2y agoThey can just date down? A lot of the times those degrees don’t pay better anyway
- HideousKojima 2y agoAt least according to surveys and other stats, women are far more reluctant to date down than men.
- ghaff 2y agoThen they adjust or don't date.
