#3There might be some interesting analysis there, but the social science underlying it is awful. If you base your analysis on unsubstantiated priors, you get useless results.

#4There isn't a lot of meat to this article (at least, based on the Google cache version that passenger provided).
If mate selection is affected by technology, how does technology affect non-heterosexual relationships? What about non-monogamous relationships?

#5"We don’t have to assume very much to see this play out in the real world, only that men prefer young women and women prefer high status men."
Author puts on his MRA hat to make a few assertions, runs a simulation, and uses that assumption to conclude that women will get more dates with high-status men with technology.

#8Hypergamy, then, is ever present. The only thing that changes whether it is realized or not is the extent to which women are free to act on it. Hypergamy doesn’t necessarily guarantee an inequality in actual sexual encounters, but the more free that women are to act on it (and this is personal speculation) the more likely are there to be social norms and institutions favoring women, i.e. fault-free divorce, preferential child custody laws, anti-slut shaming, popularity on social media, and the free trips to Dubai that entails, etc.
I need to report 'reality' to the mods for gender baiting.

There is evidence from OKCupid etc (and, y'know, the real world) that the two assertions you quoted are true, broadly speaking.
What has this got to do with "putting on his MRA hat"? Does this invalidate the assertions somehow?

a) it has links. Use them.
b) one should have an intellectual capacity of appreciating that Kerr did not get together with Evan for his stunning personality.
