I didn't say any average woman can have sex with any man she meets. I said an average woman can have sex with a man every night. That's extremely different. They can send a message to 100 different guys every day on dating app and straight up ask for sex. Guaranteed at least 1 guy will say yes. People have tested this. This is absolutely true.

There are real women who's imo pretty below average looking do this on regular basis. With hundreds of past sex-partners.

But even if you ignore that, what guarantee do those women have of being safe?

There isn't. That's irrelevant though. What guarantee do I have that I would save a safe time getting anywhere by car? There isn't. Why do you seek for a guarantee in anything anyway? That's pointless and irrational. What guarantee does a guy have that when he meets up, there's actually just bunch of muggers? There isn't. That happens too btw.

You meet somewhere public & safe, take your time to vet, and then act on the perceived risk and reward. That's how life works. There's never a guarantee of anything in life.

But that's still vastly easier than getting 0 matches and never having a chance to begin with. Fact is, women do match on dating apps, and they do go on dates, and they do have sex. Stats prove this. Men do not get anywhere near as much in any of the stats.

Make no mistake, I'm not saying people are having easy time getting genuine relationships. Dating apps ruin it for everyone. But if you don't think women have it easier, you are completely ignorant to the stats that's we're seeing.

How in the world is safety irrelevant? Or are you just assuming that men will readily jump an average looking woman who wants sex because he's just that shallow? It seems to me you're speaking very poorly of men while trying to paint women as "having it easy". Somehow, I don't think sex that threatens my life is "easy" and I don't think of that threat at irrelevant.

You seriously have a reading comprehension problem.

  • I never said safety is irrelevant. I said guarantee is irrelevant.
  • I never assumed men will readily jump on an average looking woman. I said it's been tested.
  • People seeking casual sex has nothing to do with shallowness. You brought that out of nowhere.
  • I never spoke poorly of men.
  • I never said women have it easy. In fact, I distinctively said they do not. I said they have it easier.

Nothing you argued about since the beginning is based on what I said. Learn to read. Or fuck off.
