If women are lonely, it's only because men are shallow.

Whenever I see articles about older women discussing dating such as on sites like XOJane or DatingOverThirty on Reddit you'll see a bunch of women discussing how much of a hardship dating is and how they struggle to find a quality man. A lot of them men passing them up for younger women. These women consider themselves high quality.

The interesting thing is that you'll never see anyone talk about how it must be because of their personality, or calling them entitled. You never see some woman named Bianca saying how she is 78 years old and is able to attract men because she is confident.

Nope, it's because Men are shallow indecision

I have a younger brother who finally got a girlfriend and I am worried

My younger brother is 5'5 and was never really a ladies' man but did have a few girlfriends while in high school. When he got to college he struggled a bit but had one girlfriend if I remember correctly.

When he graduated college and moved to another town he went through a long, long dry spell. It got to the point where our parents were worried whether he would marry, especially since I had a ton of boyfriends and eventually got married myself.

Anyway when he moved he became extremely depressed, had no luck with online dating and had no single female friends who were real. Women who befriended him usually used him for attention and or wanted favors but had no romantic interest. He did everything to improve himself. He went to the gym, joined a local baseball team and local meetup groups.

He finally met someone off of POF, but here is the clincher. The woman is 7 years older than him (he is 29, she is 36), has three kids, one from a marriage and two from two men she dated thereafter, she has an enormous amount of credit card and student loan debt and has major impulses. She is the type to not be reflective and blames other people or entities for her problems

I think my brother is blinded by his previous depression and being lonely for so long. 

My brother is smart and extremely successful. He seems happy and I don't want to drop a ton of bricks on him by meddling. 

Should I wait on the sidelines and just be happy for him or should I intervene and try to open his eyes?

"We asked women how much they care about a guy's height" - VICE articl

"Relationships are an investment. Women get the short end of the stick in most cases. Men will use us to prove their worth socially… It is only fair we get to do the same because society looks at women with short, unattractive men as being foolish, gold diggers, etc. Why should I take a social blow for a short man when they rarely take social blows being with an ugly woman? They want to judge us on dating sites by photos of our faces and bodies to decide if we're "worthy" of their attention. Well how tall are you? Are you worthy of my attention back? Why are men the only people who get to make ego-based decisions? I have an ego as well."

Where are all of the women who supposedly "don't care" about height?

Whenever in conversation, I am quickly told by non short men that there are "plenty" of women who prefer short men or who do not factor in height when it comes to attractiveness.

Good example is when on break from a meeting at work a few weeks back, a few men were expressing how difficult dating was for them despite being pretty open in terms of their preferences. This was met with variations of "I only like tall and fit men"  from the women at our table, followed by "It's good that there's someone for everyone" when they realized that only "tall and fit" came out of their mouths to describe their perfect partner (i.e. cleaning up their mess).

So a friend of mine insists that height is not that big of a deal and is dismissing the many studies done and is instead collecting her own data based on observation. She wants me to do the same. To actually record how many same height couples and couples where the man is shorter day to day for about a month. It's pretty obvious that I will see more couples where the man is taller, but the point is that there are "plenty" of women who don't mind a shorter man.

Want to play this game with me? Answer the poll above after about a month or any period of time to confirm or dismiss my friend's claim. I am in the belief that it is stacked up against is in the dating realm. What do you think?

No one gives a FUCK about your problems

Which is why this place is so essential. No one cares about the problems of short men, so we have to build each other up and use this community as a resource. Tell anyone you know about this site and spread the word and keep this place going. Wish all of you a Happy New Year.
