> The world changed, women do not need your money or your protection.

This is a good thing, we men will need to evolve to what women desire if we want to be competitive in the dating market. Speaking as someone who has lost tremendous amount of competitiveness by moving to US.

> The fancy jobs do not matter like they did before, nor does having a ton of money.

Fancy jobs and tons of money still matter, just the bar is higher now. Cool jobs are also becoming desirable, giving men more options to pursue non-traditional careers.

> What matters more than anything now are your looks.

Look has always been important for women, the playing field is just becoming more even between the genders.

Yes, the dating landscape is changing at a faster pace than before, like many other parts of society. The answer is the same, evolve or become obsolete.

People seem to weigh the pros and cons and choose to not play the game rather than entering a rat race. Its not clear for what thing they "become obsolete", esp. considering these data are not about marriage / reproduction
