That's also about when dating apps came out. Top 20% of dudes banging the top 80% of women and crushing the confidence of the bottom 80% of guys while giving insane confidence to anyone that puts 'woman' as their gender in the profile and subsequently gets 99+ likes in a day.

Not only did dating apps completely change the dynamics of casual dating for women, but combine that with the deterioration of marriage as an institution, as well as the excuses local communities used to have to meet up (I.e. church) and you pretty much just eliminated it’s competition at the same time.

Young dudes face a pretty regarded uphill battle now. One which many don’t find worth it. My buddy’s gonna continue to get the facial rearrangement surgeries (yes really) and keep pumping those steroids, why am I gonna try to compete with someone who’s killing themselves for pussy? Fuck that.
