Men on dating sites:
Posting one of the few photos of themselves they have
Posting a photo they have where they're actually happy and feeling a sense of accomplishment
Only to be ignored by any actual women. Guaranteed to be accosted by bots and time wasting sex workers.
I don't know how there are any straight men left on dating sites other than the "top 10%," of course.
I dunno either.
And people wonder why incels are a thing....
Incel is a mindset, plenty of women will look past looks for people who make them laugh, or are interesting, or who do fun things with them.
When you show women 10000 photos and ask them to choose from them, yes they'll go for looks, that's all the signal they get.
My advice to incels is to find some fun hobbies, could be hiking or solitary things, as long as it makes you happy. When you're happy, people will be drawn to you. If you focus on being butter and angry, people will sense that and avoid you.
There isn't any excuse for incel behavior. Those guys are trash.
You misunderstand. I am not excusing the incel community. Any sympathy I had for them died years ago, and frankly I think any guy who thinks women deserve retribution because they won't sleep with them is a fucking coward.
But here's the thing, I think it's a horrific symptom of our societal ills, not a cause. Inceldom is an economic issue first and foremost.
We are a society that profiteers from human misery in so many ways. Men are judged quite harshly for their wealth, status and their ability to provide, even when we've made great strides to bring about equality between the sexes. Wealth inequality has created a predominantly male underclass. This affects many things like being able to afford a home, access to physical and mental healthcare, etc.
Another thing that I think doesn't help is how we've commodified sex in so many ways, but that's a very deep subject that would take me way too long to go into.
Online dating specifically is a monopoly headed by just two parent companies. They want your experience to be as miserable as humanly possible so that they can sucker you into paying the cost of several MMO subscriptions just to use the premium tier of their apps.
The problem isn't women, it's that Bumble Inc and Match Group couldn't give a flying FUCK about the integrity of their platforms. Socially awkward people depend on these apps to find love and their world view is being poisoned by a lack of interest from anybody who isn't a bot, sex worker, scam artist or a lady from the other side of the world seeking to marry their way into their country.
I can understand that. Thank you for expanding on it.
90% of incels would be fine if they would get out of their own heads and stop being misogynistic.
I'm 5'5" and get laid plenty, I've seen ugly guys get laid, guys with small dicks get laid.
It's a personality problem.
Nobody wants to see dead animals on dating sites. I appreciate you have hobbies but you can just list them as an interest.
I wouldn't have though seeing fish would be such a big deal to some. Then again, never used dating sites so wouldn't know
Oh i don't fish. Nice assumption.
It’s called Plenty of Fish! I thought it was a fishing site?!
It's got plenty of phishing alright

Monkey brain say show women fish, man good hunter, women eat good, come back to cave
Living in the Midwest, this is also super common on women's dating profiles. I'd estimate probably more than 1 out of every 10 has a fish
Yeah I've seen that on Facebook. I don't get it.
When do you have pics taken of you? Especially as a man it can be that you have a very limited selection of pics. Selfies are another matter.
I think someone is really fishing for compliments here.
This smells a little bit fishy.
I can neither confirm nor deny the rumor that Ryan Gosling's trailer on set always smelled of fish.
The last time I made anything like a profile for tinder was when I made one for PoF back in the before times, in the long-long ago, the year 2007. I didn't have fish pictures, but I did have a picture of me riding a unicycle.
It was more effective than I expected.
It's called plenty of fish for a reason, you're supposed to post pictures with fish.
I think I'd enjoy that.
You gotta understand just how few pictures men have of themselves. Most of us aren't randomly taking selfies; a lot of us don't even have pictures of us with our friends.
It is customary among her people that the man bring a leg of a lingta to the first courtship dinner. Make sure it's fresh, as if you had just killed it. Then use the leg to sweep aside everything on the table and declare in a loud voice, "I have brought you this! From this day, I wish to provide food for you and your House! All I ask is to share your company and do honor to your name!"
quickly jots down notes, “go fishing… catch fish… show to barbie.” got it, now what? I’m recently single after a long marriage, HOW DO I ATRACT WOMEN?11!?!
You have women friends? Have them make your dating profile if you want to date online. Seriously. They'll make you sound awesome while telling the truth. Chances are at least one of them is good at taking pictures.
Thanks. The comment was for comedic effect, but when I’m ready to date I’ll use this advice.
I know a fair amount of girls from Minnesota and Oregon who would like that because they're into fishing themselves. They grew up fishing with their fathers.
YOOOO LOOK AT DIS BARBIE! I found these fishes inside the car
