"Why the rate of single men in the US looking for dates has declined"

If you want a GF or a fuck doll just pick one up from the Philippines. There are millions to choose from.

My problem is the lack of sex in a marriage. No one of my friends have wife’s that put up. Sex is non existent in all of our marriages.

Well, this thread certainly has gotten toxic overnight.

There really isn't a lot of incentive for men to date and especially get married. In fact the whole process, including even asking a woman out is unpleasant for men.

Women are of a much lower quality than years gone by, from the perspective of a man.

Women used to be so much more feminine. But women's lib made women masculine, tough, want to "wear the pants", show the world that they are "strong and independent" etc.

Emphasis moved away from being a good wife, mother and home maker, to being a "career woman".

So because women no longer dreamed of getting married and having that life, they became less attractive and less interested in men, and as such, became less attractive TO men.

Single guys see how married life has screwed over their buddies and see that as unattractive.
Single guys have seen how kids these days are 'woke' and basically 'far left' and that also is a huge turn off to wanting to procreate.

Basically society peaked in the 1960s and has been in decline mode ever since.

I think it boils down to having kids and a family not being worth it, not logically, economically or psychologically. There’s too much instability in every aspect of our lives that matter when it comes to having both and security isn’t assured, not in the workplace, not in relationships, not in life. We know bad people exist, we know they will hurt us and we know that hurt may cause irreparable damage that we aren’t in positions to repair. We know those bad people can be our partners, our bosses, our relatives, our doctors, ours schools, our government. A lot of us are better educated than our parents and grandparents, but we have far less opportunities, financial footholds, support systems, general help and so on – but even when things were better, most of us have relatives like parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles who were abused by some of the above mentioned people and systems and we’re trying to learn from their mistakes and their misfortunes. In other words, our normal isn't the normal of the 70s, and maybe the "norm" wasn't all that normal then either.

Getting married today is a terrible idea for men. Almost as bad as wearing eyeliner. 🤣
