Women's roles don't need to be reversed at all. Their success is earned, but that doesn't solve the problem of them selecting for men that do not exist due to their persistent behavior to exclusively select upwards. The simpl

What misogyny? Women are not above criticism and most of the comments dropped here can easily be backed up by data.

You state this as some casual observation, but it's wild. In my country, 80-90% people in their early 20s are in long term relationship and thus already off the market. They may not be in their final relationship, but they are of a som

Chasing the top is not rational when considering the very rational fact that the top has options. I'm taken, but if were single, I'd rationally consider myself average-looking to decent. I would not find it rational at all for me

I don't think that's the reason why guys are falling behind in education but I do agree that a career-focused lifestyle isn't exactly the paradise some people think it is.

No, it doesn't. That's exactly the problem. It seems the more "quality", whatever that means, the less people reproduce, thus society falls apart.

I don't think so. My anecdotal experience in life is that people tend to settle in their beliefs somewhere in their 30s, and will stick to it even if it's a type of self harm. Both men and women will turn bitter and simply opt-out

"It's sad an overachieving woman reaches the top and can't find the ideal person she had built up in her head" If you're at the top, and select for men higher than that top, that's not sad. It's delusional

Added bonus of selecting for the 0.01% of men: if you're extraordinarily lucky to secure him, you have a new problem: the man has options.

Not to mention that emotionally intelligent is somewhat of an insulting term. Men and women deal with and express emotions in radically different ways, that doesn't make one way more mature or intelligent.

"They aren’t looking for “status” they are looking for someone who is emotionally intelligent." False. A lowly educated low earner male that is emotionally intelligent will not get selected. Every dating/marriage statistic co

You're right, it's a play on the meme: "man dead, woman most affected". Popular culture has become structurally anti-male. The ease at which we're described as simplistic, violent, sexual addicts doesn't seem t

This problem seems statistically unsolvable unless people make vast behavioral changes. The education gap will not be closed, it might even grow further apart. A significant amount of men will continue to work in blue collar jobs and thus w

I think this question is far more interesting than the blackout drama. It seems Reddit hasn't made a cent of profit in 15 years. That's absurd even by SV standards. Is it incompetence? Not a priority because the focus was always o

Another fun one is scroll-triggered animations, as one would commonly find on an Apple product detail page, as just an example. The problem is that it assumes smooth scrolling input, typically a touchpad or a touch-only device. The experien

The problem of the idea "updated for a modern audience" is that the updates do not cater to the actual audience, instead a minority of motivated activists that seem to thrive in finding offense and extrapolating it. It's dysf
