		<description>Dave , 100 Internets to you sir , correct ! 

&lt;em&gt;Misandry&lt;/em&gt; is the excepted norm these days ,but strangely  it is kept quiet ,so  demonization or just being Ignored is the life of a single man . 

I for one have given up on online dating ,men get Ignored unless they are in the top 20% on looks and wage; If you do get a date you get the pleasure of a women who could date 10 other guys at a drop of a hat .

The Dating scene is a market of which the value of men due to supply and demand is zero  ,LOL  , because dating sites want to continue making money ,it is all kept quiet .

Rant over :) </description>

		<description>So, I stumbled on this site, because my girl friend and I were having a conversation...about how men have more to choose from then women. So, I decided to google statistics on male population verses female. This caught my attention; which is rare as I am pretty sure that I have Adult ADD. Just kidding...so, I am reading this article. 

I agree with Jonathan and how pretty women have it easy...if you want a sugar daddy, or if you want to get laid. I am a fairly attractive female. I catch the eye of males from time to time. I on the other hand am not looking for a sugar daddy, or to just get laid. I am looking for: a life partner, someone I can build history with, someone who enjoys my company, and someone who I can call my best friend. I have been currently single for 6 years now, and the picking for great guys are slim. 

I think I am single because my standards are too high. I want a man: who is educated, who doesn&#039;t live at home with their mom or dad, someone that by my age should be settled and has a place, not to mention a car, and has not just a job...preferrably a career. 

I just think it is funny how still yet Jonathan is just stating the obvious. Yes, women who look good have an easier time getting laid and landing a sugar daddy. Besides that I am still in search and a needle in a hay stack is very hard to find, but I refuse to give up. 

Happily single here in Florida,

		<description>Interesting point, Bob.  I do think single women have more choices than single men.

Wanna see more evidence that single women (at least the younger ones) have it better than the guys?  Check this out:

http://www.mutantpalm.org/2008/10/26/americas-bare-branches.html

The guy&#039;s blog links to a map that shows that for Singles in the 20-34 age bracket, *EVERY SINGLE* major metropolitan area in the United States has substantially more single men than women!  (Yes, that includes NYC!)  Again, younger women have more choices.  No wonder I can&#039;t find women my age who are single and looking!</description>

		<description>Single women have it much much easier. A single man may be single because he cannot find a girlfriend, most wont admit it, but there are many men(yes including me) who have a very difficult time getting women to put down the bitch shield and give them a chance. This is not true for single women. A good looking girl is single because she WANTS TO BE, not for lack of men salivating at a chance to &#039;get her.&#039; Even the most modest looking girl can put on a short skirt, a little makeup and hit the club and be hit on at least 5-6 times.</description>

		<description>I would say the female single life sucks more because you are in competition with each other for the shiny thing to show off to your friends that they can&#039;t get.
Men only play that same game you play- to get pussy.

So I expect you being single is a goddamn nightmare whereas a man being single is a FUCKING RELIEF.</description>

		<description>I agree; it often seems men need women more than vice versa.</description>

		<description>I know most of these comments were made quite some time ago, but I was so intrigued with this thread that I couldn&#039;t pass it up!

Some months ago I was bemoaning my single status to a married female co-worker.  I made the remark: &quot;The problem is that men need women a lot more than women need men.&quot;  She actually agreed with my statement.  Let&#039;s face it: for all the talk about being &quot;independent&quot; and &quot;a lone ranger,&quot; most men need a woman in order to feel validated.  I know that doesn&#039;t *HAVE* to be true, but sometimes I think for a lot of us guys, life would be considerably better sharing life with a woman who actually wants to spend time with us.  There&#039;s also a bit of a double standard in regards to friendships: women can have their &quot;girlfriends,&quot; but if a guy has male friends he&#039;s emotionally close to, he must be &quot;gay.&quot;

But yeah, I have to echo previous posters: us single guys have it worse.  Just look at the suicide and early death rates for single men. :-(</description>

		<description>Thanks for the comment. :)

You said, &quot;All men ranging from 18 to 60 feel they deserve a shot at that hot young girl.&quot; I agree. You also said, &quot;All guys pretty much want the same thing and women are much more diverse in what they want.&quot; I disagree. Men may have been conditioned to believe &quot;beauty&quot; only comes in one particular shape, size, personality, color, etc., but it&#039;s not been my experience that all men have bought into that bullshit. Some? Yes. All? No. Same could be said for women.</description>
