New York Times: Men, where have you gone? Please come back

[The ADD]

Naw take PR off that list. PR women are americanized

Maybe but brehs are still going there and knocking them down

Based on the subject title, I was hoping the NY Times was actually turning the corner and realized a significant number of eligible men (in the top 20-40%) have opted out of dating almost completely, therefore doing damage to the dating market. For the past 5-10 years media outlets like them have been pushing this "Male Loneliness Epic" garbage which mainly applies to men women do not want in the first place. And they've always framed opinionated articles like this to slight men in order to not offend their female base and advertisers.

But nope, this is nothing more than shaming men into traditional courtship that doesn't line up for many people in relationships today.

Plenty of women are fine with "situation-ships" from their college years to their mid-30's and even later, as long as its from the men that turn them on. Yes, there is no time for the Boss Chick to cuddle after sex and have a deep conversation about astrology the morning after with GMA playing in the background. Bills need to get paid.

And just this year, I'm hearing women don't want to deal with mens emotional labor (after telling men we need to stop bottling up our emotions, go to therapy, and express our feelings for the past 5 years), why they mad, this is the perfect compromise

I do not blame any man who knows he is a womans second/third/fourth choice that refuses to roll out the red carpet for a woman who has a dozen unread messages from other guys on Tinder/Bumble on standby and shes ready to entertain after the first moment of dullness during a date.

I said this shyt was going to happen for the longest time so I'm not surprised. And now things will get unpleasant for a lot of these women that want the men to "come back" since they now will have to figure out how to move someone who is probably content to some extent out of their place of contentment into a place where possible struggle, annoyance, and headache exists and where people who denigrate and insult them like this here:

It's soo hard and exhausting to be a man and sometimes it makes me feel like outrageously breaking out in tears, with both hands covering my face because it's so depressing to be a man in 2025.

Shyt I feel like crying now...


Some of y'all got to stop with this “woe is me/it's hard being a man that it makes me wanna break down and cry” shyt being a man in 2025 ain't all that depressing and miserable some of you guys just need to get your affairs in order

are trying to move them. Nobody will listen to this. None of these dudes will consider this. It's stupid.

At this point, come up with a better pitch, a better price, or use force. Since none of those will be done, things will continue to slide and tumble down. It is what it is.

The bold exactly on the money. I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees it.

Why do people always try to shame men into doing shyt? I guess if you can't appeal to reason you resort to manipulation tactics.

There should be a study done in regards to the correlation between the increase in obesity , and decrease in relationships.

So now men don't choose their mates now?

Men choose who they pursue.
Women chose who they accept.

Every man on earth can fukkin choose Salma Hayek to be his mate. But that ain’t happening, is it?

Right.
That’s the fukkin point.

The mrs and i's first date was walking to McDonald's to get ice cream... these days you gotta hit up a 5 star restaurant and get shawty an Uber black. Coupled with women putting men on blast in social media for typical courting behavior, no wonder brehs are staying away... just read the quick lil gems thread

All this scarcity mindset shyt is embarrassing. Especially from women.

There are billions of men and women on the planet.
