    Maybe I’m hotter than I think I am … but in my experience dressing well, showering daily, having a job that you’re good at, treating people with respect, respecting myself, and staying in half-way decent shape and I’ve had women swimming around my whole life and I’ve seen people do the same thing and have the same success.

    I want to add that in my experience most women have low expectations for men. So I often see couples where the woman is several levels more attractive than the dude simply because he’s not a useless dirty fat lump. It’s amazing how much attention you’ll get as a man being simply average at life.

    83, perhaps you should consider volunteering your time and focusing energy into helping people who need assistance. It would take your focus off yourself and your own perceived lack. There are many agencies that could use help. Consider your local food bank or Habitat for Humanity. Those agencies have always welcomed help in places we have lived.

    Cultivate thankfulness. Your life will improve when you exercise gratitude.
    Giving thanks can make you happier - Harvard Health.

    "In positive psychology research, gratitude is strongly and consistently associated with greater happiness. Gratitude helps people feel more positive emotions, relish good experiences, improve their health, deal with adversity, and build strong relationships. ...

    ..."One group wrote about things they were grateful for that had occurred during the week. A second group wrote about daily irritations or things that had displeased them, and the third wrote about events that had affected them (with no emphasis on them being positive or negative). After 10 weeks, those who wrote about gratitude were more optimistic and felt better about their lives. Surprisingly, they also exercised more and had fewer visits to physicians than those who focused on sources of aggravation.

    "Another leading researcher in this field, Dr. Martin E. P. Seligman, a psychologist at the University of Pennsylvania, tested the impact of various positive psychology interventions on 411 people, each compared with a control assignment of writing about early memories. When their week's assignment was to write and personally deliver a letter of gratitude to someone who had never been properly thanked for his or her kindness, participants immediately exhibited a huge increase in happiness scores. This impact was greater than that from any other intervention, with benefits lasting for a month.

    "Of course, studies such as this one cannot prove cause and effect. But most of the studies published on this topic support an association between gratitude and an individual's well-being."

    Without reading anything in this thread (including the OP), my answer is "probably yes".

    Perhaps your opinion of Melania, a still beautiful woman, is indicative of why you can’t get laid.

    A society of men who fold their hands and let the women call all the shots is a society of neutered lackey beta males.

    If the technological playing field ever becomes level with another nation all other things equal, then the society with the effeminate weaker men would lose in a war to a society of real men who step up and show real leadership.

    If you thought that was a good idea, you are probably beyond enlightenment. You are getting exactly what you wanted, to be hated by women to justify your own over the top misogyny.

    You have a point. Warfare is turning into drones and tech and we all know dudes dominate Fortnite and COD.

    But stepping on a guy who is down isn’t exactly a gentlemen thing to do either.
    Sorry, if rude PA, you’re one of my favorite posters here.
    I think this guy is reaching out and it’s not easy to self-disclose, due to the risk of how others will react to one’s true self.

    If you think his (or anyone's) 'true self' is really a raving misogynist, well ... I've got some FTX stock to sell you. In reality he probably just watched some bad youtube videos and developed a shittier personality on purpose, like a lot of the conservatives who post videos regularly here.

    Drones are part of warfare, but at some point soldiers are going to become necessary if the goal is to invade. Also women don’t handle the trauma involved with war well. They don’t have the psychological makeup for it since they don’t compartmentalize. And increases in technology only exacerbates that aspect of war, not minimizes it. If we go to war, and we are relying on women all other factors equal, then that puts us at a huge disadvantage.

    Nonetheless, societies with weaker men, the type of men that feminist women prefer, they don’t do well in war on level playing fields with societies that have stronger men.

    Men don't handle the trauma of war 'well' either! Its like no one takes a look at the suicide/homelessness/unemployed rates among veterans or read any literature from the world wars/Vietnam and their aftermath.
