Or. It might be that the vast majority of these articles have some disturbing elements in common that you keep seeing again and again and again.
1. They talk more about how women have no empathy for their struggles as a man than they do their actual problems. This isn't being actually vulnerable, this is labor dumping. It outsources their own agency to make changes in their life. Passive and victimized by life mentality.
2. They contain an animosity toward women because they feel they've been deprived of their due, sex and love. Entitled.
3. They insist that all their relationship needs be serviced by or maintained by a woman. They won't consider the burden this places on the woman. They don't consider their own responsibility in developing relationships for themselves. They don't value any other type of relationship.
4. They tend to be self pitying. The vast majority of them will have some bullshit claim in them straight from the manosphere that common sense and basic observation should easily show you the falseness of. They've also all been widely debunked and disproven time and time again. But the same guys, like you, keep bringing them up, time and time again.
5. There's no accountability or understanding that we're where we are due to the dating app phenomenon and men's mistreatment of women in public spaces. It doesn't matter whether or not these men personally believe they have never harassed women in public. It doesn't even register for them that THIS is women's reality and a natural consequence of that is that now men have to earn the right to "be given a chance" rather than taking advantage of basic goodwill and civility that existed before the age of street harassment thanks to PUAs and dating coach "gurus".
6. These articles consistently use dating marketplace ideology which commodifies human relationships and gaming theory/language. Together, this is degrading and dehumanizing to women. Also, just icky. The hell?
7. They tag these articles with feminism which is curious. That would be fine if, within them, they were actually asking for help or pointing out the ways that feminism could help them, etc. But time and time again what you see is some version of "I still have problems.s and so feminism is a lie and/or a failure" or "My problems securing a date/sex is all the fault of feminism/women". They also seem to think that all women are by default feminists, which is just weird.
8. When you track these guys over time, it becomes clear they're lying to themselves. They've got some deeply delusional thinking going on. An example: a 16 year old boy makes content in this vein. He can't get a date, women won't give him a chance, he's a nice guy, all he wants is his fair shot at love and sex, he keeps getting denied his humanity and forced to maintain his virginity, yadda yadda yadda. He's 16. Average age of first sexual experience for young men is 17. So he's a year away from the average first time having sex. But to hear him tell it, he has no hope of ever having sex because he's been denied so much. Countless countless times. Right? 6 months later, he divulges that he's dated 3 girls. 3. Three. I'm guessing some of these relationships were during preteen years, where sex shouldn't have been part of the equation. Last I checked, 3 was not what you would call countless. One, two, three. There you go. Not countless. See the delusional thinking?
