i’m immediately put off by women who carry very negative views about men, even if those views aren’t directed at me. there’s something off-putting about that energy — it just doesn’t sit right with
Parents of Young Adults Should Be Supportive of 20something Marriage Too many parents of today's young adults "hold that your 20s are for getting your career launched, “figuring out who you are,” and having fun. Enough of the navel-gazing identity quests. Not only is fun overrated, fun is far more likely to materialize when you’re with friends and family, not when you’re alone, online, at work, meeting up with strangers, stressed by overwork, or on a packed airplane for the next seven hours. “Fun” like that is overrated. How have we been so misled for so long?" @RegnerusMark ifstudies.org/blog/twenty-so…

The most important input to a matchmaking algorithm is physical attraction. Not "shared values." Not "love languages." Attraction. Every study on marital satisfaction says this. Every matchmaker knows it. Nobody builds for it because it's uncomfortable. We built a photo testing tool at @KeeperAI, collected millions of human ratings, and trained our own model (keeper-1) to score attractiveness at near-human accuracy. 50x cheaper than GPT. Better than every frontier model.
Wilcox Is Right: A Warning From A Woman Who Waited Too Long to Pursue Marriage "I was strolling down a quiet Parisian street late last year, heading toward the Rodin Museum, when a wave of devastating clarity washed over me. . . as I walked alone, the truth crashed down: I’m so tired of this—tired of being alone. . . Solo life, for all its Instagram-filtered glamour, simply cannot compete with shared joy." @LisaBritton ifstudies.org/blog/wilcox-is…

"Female intrasexual competition can be understood, at least in part, as serving to lower birth rates. Giving poor relationship advice that leads to breakups is an example. Or encouraging behaviors that increase the chances of single motherhood." podcasts.apple.com/ae/podcast/106…
Women weigh physical attractiveness more strongly in their mate selection when they are connected to a polygraph than when they are not. The effect of the polygraph is pronounced when women are rating unattractive men, not attractive ones.
Olivia Rodrigo tells British Vogue that she’s a “long way from” marriage: “What am I, a child bride? I hope that young girls know that life is full of so much joy that is unrelated to husband or kids.”
What if we talked about marriage the way we talk about careers? @MZHemingway says we should encourage young people to think about marriage and family as intentionally as they think about their careers.
Dating apps destroyed EVERYTHING. The analytics around Gen Z regarding dating, marriage, and having sex are dramatically alarming. We need to talk about that AND how they monetized loneliness. Check out today's mini-documentary: youtu.be/xDcKMjDOeuc
Why is he not good enough?
>From these experiments, it was thought that there was to be only one cure for helplessness. In Seligman's hypothesis, the dogs do not try to escape because they expect that nothing they do will stop the shock. To change this expectation, experimenters physically picked up the dogs and moved their legs, replicating the actions the dogs would need to take in order to escape from the electrified grid. This had to be done at least twice before the dogs would start willfully jumping over the barrier on their own. In contrast, threats, rewards, and observed demonstrations had no effect on the "helpless" Group 3 dogs.
Paul Ehrlich is dead. His legacy is misunderstood. He was, in fact, correct about a lot of things-- he was rendered wrong because innovative and industrious people chose to make him wrong. The lesson for today is simple: people have to choose to make low-fertility-fears wrong.
Global population to shrink this century as birth rate falls. The world is set to have 200 mn fewer people than previously expected by 2100. Fertility rates have fallen below the replacement rate in most continents.
