      pretty sure the high sex drive in our youth diminishes in part because it's simply less useful as we age because we gain more reproductive value in terms of experience, resources and social status, hence a raging sex drive and actively chasing skirt is overkill in later years where the lady-attention now naturally gravitates towards you as the result of said status etc

      It's the time schedule. When you are 40, and a woman is 40, if you've done moderately well you will be in the much better position. It's just too bad early 20 something women don't recognize this. They can't see past next month's rent, while men have to have a focus for years in the future.

    Dude, it ain't worth all that crap. While I agree men should continually self improve, the exchange required to date in this day and age, is a complete ripoff. They demand we have the pinnacle of charisma, relentless fitness regiments (even if they're fat as a tick), prestigious jobs, and all that other crap. The measure of a man's worth has nothing to do with women. The sooner we all realize that, the better off we'll be.

    Interesting points. Guess you could say vibe is important. Lots of guys can't even get a chance to get a date with an attractive woman though. One factor is dating apps, and probably hypergamy. Attractive women want to go for the best guy they can get, which they often find on dating apps. And in hookup culture many top guys are cycling through women, which the women willfully ignore. And that leaves more normal guys struggling more to date attractive women

    Troy, what's your thoughts on hiring escorts? Do you think this would be a preferable option for a lot of guys - especially guys with special needs, autism, or a physical disability who are at a natural disadvantage? Self-improvement is all very well but one shouldn't have to be doing this relentlessly just to find a decent partner - none of my relatives did. One thing about escort services is you know where you stand - the client says what they want - the escort delivers the client's request (so long as its reasonable) and gets the money.

    It's just dating. What is the big deal exactly? Just go up to people and try to meet them.
    I think it has a lot to do with how Gen Z was socialized (especially the men). They were never encouraged to go outside and interact with other children in any kind of spontaneous form. They rely on these dating apps because everything is pre planned and organized for them. No one has to ask any questions because they profile can just say everything for them. No one has to put themselves out there. It's the most low risk, simplistic form of dating.
    Gen Z men are the worst at this because they were encouraged to spend their entire lives behind screens. They were groomed into being the perfect introverts and are incapable of simply socializing with another human being.
