What else do you expect them to do if none of the choices are worthwhile?

Maybe lower their standards to the point that they can be satisfied by a real person, not a text completion algorithm that literally worships the ground they walk on and outputs some of the cheesiest, cringiest text I've ever read.

It learned the cheesiest, cringiest text you've ever read by training on what real men write. Demanding women lower their standards is what creepy sexist incels demand.

I'm sorry, but no. It reads exactly like the sort of thing you'd find in cheesy romance novels written by women, for women. Because it's drawing from that exact training data in these cases.

"I'd rather date ChatGPT than a real person, but this isn't a me problem, clearly all men are to blame and they should change for me" is definitely a healthy mindset to have, don't let those creepy incels hold you down.

The vast majority of women are not replacing dating with chatbots, not even close. If you want women to stop being picky, you would have to reduce the "demand" in the market, stop men from being so damn desperate for any pair of legs in a skirt.

They are suffering through the exact same dating apps, suffering through their own problems. Try talking to one some time about how much it sucks.

Remember, the apps are not your friend, and not optimized to get you a date or a relationship. They are optimized to make you spend money.

The apps want you to feel hopeless, like there is no other way than the apps, and like only the apps can help you, which is why you should pay for their "features" which are purposely designed to screw you over. The Match company purposely withholds matches from you that are high quality and promising. They own nearly the entire market.

Making a lot of assumptions there, my dude.

Expectations and reality will differ. Ultimately we will have soft eugenics. This is a good thing in the long run, especially with how crowded the global south is.

Nature always finds a way, and it's telling you not to pass your genetics on. It seems cruel, but it is efficient and very elegant. Now we just need to find an incentive structure to encourage the intelligent to procreate.
