Surely that would mean 60% of women (assuming equal gender balance in the population) are perpetually single? That doesn’t sound right to me.
It just means that 1 man in that top 20% (or whatever the actual number is) is dating / bedding 4 women.

So church is a place you can go to hook up and have sex? They seem to be underselling that feature.
I'm going to answer assuming you're not being deliberately obtuse: Yes. Obviously it's not a bar where you're looking for a one night stand or a casual hookup. But churches as a general rule encourage their congregations to get together in a myriad of social settings. So yeah, if you were looking to meet a person who shared similar beliefs and values to you, joining a church would be a pretty decent way to get freque…
Wrong assumption. I was attempting to be humourous. But yes I could see how you could find a life partner at church.

If you are a white person who goes to a developing nation you'll be top 10% while in your country you may be in the bottom 20%
I know a guy who tried to do that, but his desperation traveled alongside him. Here in Buenos Aires if there's something valued as much as looks, is spontaneity. So much, that we have the same words for "going on a date" and "hanging out". Because "a date" sounds like you are looking forwards to it and that's a turn off. You have to read the vibe to see if it's really a date or not. So, as soon as he got some attenti…
Sounds like something that would cause a lot of misunderstandings. How often is that a plot device in sitcoms?

How old are the women that are attracted to you? Are they actually desirable partners?
Mostly 25–60? I mostly only notice the attraction state of the ones I see as desirable partners, though I've dated a few that turned out to be a very poor fit.
25-35 range is vastly different from the 50-60 range, for quite obvious reasons.

> While women can get attention from thousands of men online in just a few hours, men are lucky if anyone is interested in them When it comes to dating apps, everyone I know falls into one of two categories: The first group invests time into generating a good profile. They put the effort into getting get photos of themselves and presenting the photos properly. They write a good bio, avoiding the tired tropes ("love f…
Unfortunately this response is divorced from reality. I have observed many 20-something women swiping through Tinder and the #1 cause for a man’s profile to be rejected is his attractiveness simply being average or below average. Have you ever tried online dating on platforms such as Tinder?

If you would like to list some sources for your assertions, I would be happy to demonstrate that they are extremely dubious.
Which parts of my comment do you believe are dubious, and why? If we look at the eradication of female-only spaces, for example, the reasoning behind this is that proponents of transgenderism want women's spaces to be based on self-declared gender identity rather than sex. Where this occurs, it means that formerly female-only spaces and services now admit a mixture of males and females, as they will also include men…
Got it.

> and when I bring em somewhere it's pretty difficult to get it running How much time do these friends spend in social situations with women where the goal isn't to get laid/find a girlfriend? I don't know your friends, but have known people in similar situations. In all those cases, their were others in our social circles who looked worse "on paper" but had no real difficulties here - it wasn't really about attracti…
> How much time do these friends spend in social situations with women where the goal isn't to get laid/find a girlfriend? Sometimes it's all available time. Which could be really small or none at all. Behavior could be significantly affected by proximity with women, when you're in certain age and experience. It's described in the literature, for here it could be said a social - social - situation with women where th…

> remove school, college and work and what is left? Not much. What is left? Literally every other social activity one engages in?
But where do you find people to form clubs or whatever with? Work/school/office. Also covid wiped a lot of these out and it will take some time for them to re-appear

Ugh. Did you consider looking for help from paid professionals?
That wouldn't accomplish anything about developing the skills to get a relationship. It can get someone over the nervousness of first sex, but that's it.
