@PinkRuby69 26-27 is still the age where interest from men is very broad. Of course there’s many individual factors that affect attraction to. How you age, dress, where you hang out, career or personal success, confidence and many other things.

Ngl I've been getting more interest since I hit 26-27 and far more than when I was younger. Getting older gives you confidence and security that men do find attractive

@guy_canadian3 @SassySouthBlond @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy Please cite that. Not what I’ve read.

@Why__Knot @SassySouthBlond @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy Pornhub’s parent company was found accountable for its role in hosting videos and accepting payments from criminal actors

@girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy False.

@SassySouthBlond @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy Pornhub settled out of court. There was no finding of wrongdoing by the court.

They settled in court. What do you mean? The FTC has taken action against them. States have taken action against them. What more do you want? The govt shields them with 230 protections is why they aren’t criminally charged. Just like X when they were taken to court. The 230 protections shields these companies.

@SassySouthBlond @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy With no findings of wrongdoing. What are you trying to say?

@Why__Knot @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy That’s not tru…

@guy_canadian3 @SassySouthBlond @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy With most platforms which host user uploaded content, takedowns are whack a mole. Pornhub has slightly improved on that by making some higher requirements to upload content. So it has higher quality control now. But things do sneak through.

@Why__Knot @SassySouthBlond @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy That’s not remotely true & even if they are taken down the same process has to start again

@SassySouthBlond @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy No that is not true. When a video violates the terms or the law, ph will take it down. Lawsuits happen when either you want to tahr something down which doesn’t violate the terms or the law. Or where theres s different interpretation and a judge is needed to clarify.

@Why__Knot @girlfromsouthie @MeghanEMurphy People had to sue them to get the videos down

@zapatas_mom There are non. Communism has a perfect record of failure. China managed to convert to capitalism in the 80s. Probably what you actually like is state capitalism with authoritarian leaders who make pretty good decisions.

I would really like to join some kind of communist org, but they seem to either attract incels or people with 7 pronouns. Where is the communist org with normal folks?

@jess_ann_pin The slut shaming and vitriol against female sluttyness is largely driven by women and a consequence of the different biological consequences of pregnancy.

It’s a given that >90% of men will gladly give the top 2% of women sex. If the top 2% of women gave access to 80% of men, you’d slut shame them. But when you believe that the top 2% of men give access to 80% of women, you slut shame women. See the problem?

@_redcoloratura_ @zapatas_mom Sorry you don’t like data driven discussion. That is probably also the root cause of your faulty assumptions. All the best.

@Why__Knot @zapatas_mom brother I wish you would revisit deez nuts

I know men WISH this was true, but the woman in my friend group who gets the most dates is the one who is 37. Often by younger men. She last rejected a guy 7 years her junior acuse she didn’t feel a spark. He was trying to wife her. My point still stands tho, many are lazy. I think it’s the porn.

@Schtal2 @CyndurX @gentlevishwa @zapatas_mom It is a possible explanation, but I think age gap is far more likely. I wonder if there’s reliable data. Can you ask grok since you got the checkmark.

@Why__Knot @CyndurX @gentlevishwa @zapatas_mom The almost 2x more single young men than single young women indicates to me that men are more likely to have harems. And that women are far more likely to be part of harems.

The problem with modern dating is really men. We have to just be honest about this. All of the single women I know and am friends with ages 25-37 find men who are their looksmatch, age peers (within a few years), and income class match. The women are sometimes skeptical and not that attracted to the men but are willing to give it a shot if the guy ACTUALLY tries.

@_redcoloratura_ @zapatas_mom That would be an ignorant assumption. Hopefully you can revisit the broken logic that led you to make such a faulty assumption and do better next time.

@Why__Knot @zapatas_mom I know this is going to sound crazy but I don’t get the sense that you go outside often enough to have a real opinion on this

@CpaFogle8004 @zapatas_mom Sought. Sorry my typo.

@Why__Knot @zapatas_mom "far less sough"?

Me: all my friends who are dating are struggling with men being lazy and not planning dates. Men: it’s because the men can tell they are not really desired by the women! Me: no it’s happening with men the women deeply desire and even want to sleep with! Men: those guys are chads why should they settle? Lmfaoooo ok. So, is there any universe where men are accountable for the problems of modern dating? If the women are not that attracted but willing to give the men a shot if they just TRIED a little, then those men can tell and would rather not try? If the women are deeply attracted to a guy and willing to sleep with them after even a second date or third date, then those guys are all chads with a billion offers who won’t plan a date to potentially sleep with them? Make it make sense. Use incel math and explain it to me.

@Schtal2 @CyndurX @gentlevishwa @zapatas_mom Yeah, agree with your sense of things. Of course there are also many women who are dating multiple male partners at that young age group too; my sense is in roughly equal rates. But I don’t have data, it’s a gut feel.

Explicit harems are niche (Where multiple women live with one man and they all know about each other) But implicit harems (Where the man is seeing multiple women without living with them or without informing them) aren’t that uncommon, particularly among people under 25. Not a large % of men have the ability to do this but a large % of women have been with a man like this.

@grok @Schtal2 @CyndurX @gentlevishwa @zapatas_mom Do you have data for all relationships, not just married/cohabitating?

**The average age gap in U.S. heterosexual relationships (married and cohabiting couples) is about 2.2 years, with men typically older.** According to Pew Research Center's 2024 analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data, the average gap for married couples was 2.2 years in 2022 (down from 2.4 in 2000). Cross-national studies covering cohabiting partners report the same ~2.2-year figure for North America. Data is scarcer for purely casual dating, but partnered relationships cluster tightly around this. (Most couples are within 1-3 years.) See: Pew short read (Aug 2024) and related global partner-age analyses.

@Marsman__Melvin @zapatas_mom The transition of eligible dating pools is slow and gradual, and has many variables; but it bears out in the singleness statistics. It’s also a hard reality for many women to adapt to, going slowly from the most wanted pool to the least wanted pool.

@Marsman__Melvin @zapatas_mom I mean, there’s different ways to say this and there’s some truth to it, though I think that it can also be exaggerated. It is true that women 18-28 or so are chased by a wide range of men 18-48 or so. Whereas women ~38-58 are chased by a much smaller cohort of men.

@Schtal2 @CyndurX @gentlevishwa @zapatas_mom Yes, that is true. Harems, polyamorous do tend to more often be one man to many women. Though I still think these cases are pretty niche and amount to a rounding error in overall population. But you are right that it is increasing and would be worth seeing recent data on.

@Why__Knot @CyndurX @gentlevishwa @zapatas_mom You aren’t taking into consideration that some young men have multiple situationships at the same time. Modern society isn’t strictly monogamous anymore.

@Schtal2 @CyndurX @gentlevishwa @zapatas_mom I haven’t looked up recent stats, but I’d be septics. Perhaps that data is for marriages and not across all relationships; perhaps it is dated, as age gap has been particularly destygmatized in the last decade. Do you have a source?

@Why__Knot @CyndurX @gentlevishwa @zapatas_mom The average age gap in relationships is just 2 years in the US.

@zapatas_mom The survey above itself is not perfect. Given that men die younger than women and the rate of homosexuality among men is a little higher, there’s actually less hetero dating population of men vs women (getting worse with age). The 32/28 split between M/W suggests women lying.

@zapatas_mom The overall same rate of singleness but differing singleness by age cohort simply reflects age gap dating, where older men with resources do date younger more attractive/fertile women. This results in a heightened rate of singleness for young men and older women; exactly shown.
