We're just a bunch of clueless NiceGuys™ with kindness coins that don't seem to work in women's holes so that the sex we're "entitled to" falls out. Because apparently we weren't demonstrating good relationship material through the attention, respect and stability that women demand. We were only "pretending" to be nice just to get laid.
In response to r/niceguys, this forum is dedicated to exposing all the women who complain about wanting a "good man" after dating jerks and riding the cock carousel in the prime of their youth, and think they're deserving of commitment and financial stability when all they have left to offer is their depreciating looks, narcissistic mentality, used-up vaginas, and another man's kids.
Women in their 20s have numerous opportunities to date the decent men they claim to want, but many reject or friendzone these men for jerks and promiscuity. She takes advantage of a good dude's kindness for attention and favors, then accuses him of being a bad person who thinks he's entitled to sex.
But when she's in her 30s with depreciating looks, jerks who won't commit, the likelihood of being a single mom, and the social pressure from her married friends, she asks "Where have all the good men gone?"[1][2] Funny how back when she was chasing the bad boys "Being nice is the bare minimum", but now that she's past her prime and needs a bailout, she wants a man with nice guy traits.
Furthermore, dating jerks and riding the carousel before settling down with a good man is planned by many women, and encouraged by feminists. They then come to the dating market with unreasonable standards while offering little to no value themselves. Such women are totally unaware that the mature, stable men they now need are the same decent men they rejected, except these men remember the rejection and are responding in kind to avoid unstable, unappreciative women who view them more as ATMs than romantic partners.
The reason women end up here is because their behavior is not exposed as the lucid, self-destructive, feminist ideology that it is. And we're here to help Good Men guard their commitment and resources by exposing women who would make poor life partners and mothers of their children. Providing observations and opinions on the posts here allows us to better understand women's psyche and later depressive/miserable state when they are not held to a moral standard required for healthy, functioning relationships.

This is why I gave up on Western women way back in my 20s. I didn't even need to read her long, delusional list of demands.

Imagine if a guy showed HER the same kind of spreadsheet with qualifications that she had to meet in order to date him. Even with only ten line items, she'd be instantly gone.
I forget the other F words, I know there's at least one more.

Forty-two (looks like a hard 50 honestly) and she wants to get married and have a baby.
I guess no one ever sat her down and told her about her now empty egg carton she thinks she'll procreate with. Something about the tone of her voice too, that slight disapproving sneer working its way into the various words she uses to explain herself.
The same tones that will get cranked up to 11 when you come home that one time late after some beers with the work bros. Oh hell no.

The childless career woman is so useless.
They suck at work. Seriously. They wasted their time at work doing a job they absolutely suck at and hate so they can be strong and independent and childless. Then they realize it and try to have kids and fail at that too or the kid ends up retarded because her eggs are shit
Basically, women's sexual selection paradigms are not evolved to promote the perpetuation of civilization; rather, they are grounded in the human past, which was one of localized tribal conflict and extreme hardship.
If given the choice, women will argue in favor of being allowed to have lots of promiscuous sex in youth, followed by attempt at relationships in later life, which inevitably fail at very-high rates due to the physiological consequences for women of having sex with many partners (reduced pair bonding at the biochemical level).
As such, she is demonstrating that this woman enjoyed her youthful sexual exploration, and in the process ensuring she will never have a functional long-term relationship, thus the ghastly visage and the insipid logic she posts while LTR prospect evaporates before her eyes - and, while many will claim otherwise, the vast vast vast vast majority of people, woman or otherwise, do not want to die alone, but that is exactly what awaits women who can no longer functionally pair-bond, because at that point, even if they are with someone, they're still alone
women see a man and think about his future men see a woman and think about her past
Vermillion-Rx Penchant for plastic dolls 1y ago
First of all, her SMV is nowhere near high enough to even consider doing a spreadsheet like this. She has no bargaining power. This is mental masturbation at best
Secondly, the problem with this spreadsheet is multo-dimensional:
2a) she can't trust her own judgement. She needs numbers to tell her to date a guy or not
2b) women are feels driven. No matter how much logical or numeric weight she puts here. It won't matter. Some guy who makes her feel loads of tingles in something she assigned very few point is going to break her assessment. Likewise a guy could get all the points but inspire zero tingkes
2c) like every other woman out there, she probably actually doesn't know what she wants. Thus her point system is based on theory, not what she will actually like when she sees it in the moment
3) there is an extremely high chance that it is actually the guys getting all the deductions that she goes home with. Which is ironically probably why she has to have deductions, or else she'll have unrestrained tingles
4) her entire spreadsheet has an additional flaw. If a guy theoretically scores perfect on it, but also gets all the deductions too, he's still bf material?
He can check off all her wants but does she still go for him if he has all the negatives as well
Ultimately her decision is completely subjective, her own objective system fails to check and balance the fact that she has a mental rubber-stamp that will veto any numeric assessment she makes
5) the friends telling her to post it are likely spinsters. Their advice on what should be in it as well is also probably bunk
Design your spreadsheet after young women who got their perfect man early, fuck is with this spinster math? Your spreadsheet is just flawed from a source standpoint
6) her list of things has some unrealistic qualities like "single for 6 months" unless she just means no relationships in 6 months. No more than "one divorce"
Her list is just bad. But on top of that, I'm sure he's list is just completely missing scoring options of things that matter to her on a "I just had sparks with him" level. Making so much of her spreadsheet just absolute bunk
In conclusion she just has a fundamentally flawed boyfriend assessment system here and ultimately will disregard it
Bonus points: she's 42 and still wants kids. Woman. Fuck you thinking? Your eggs are gone. And the holdover eggs you might still have probably won't get fertilized no matter how much you try
woodsmoke Respectful reprobate 1y ago
I didn't even make it to the actual itemization of the list; all I could see was the quantity of "required" items.
36.
36.
To be fair, I have some semblance of a list as well. It is as follows:
That's it. That's all. And, honestly, the first two are somewhat negotiable. I could throw in with an attractive chubby girl who's willing to follow my lead and work to lose the weight. I'm also not fundamentally opposed to dating a widow or single mother, though that's obviously a much higher bar to clear.
Thing is, subtract the negotiable bit and most men I know would consider my list perfectly reasonable, even dudes who have a lot more going for them than I do. It's a pretty reasonable baseline precisely because it doesn't concern itself with ancillary superficial bullshit.
polishknight WAATGM Endorsed 1y ago
Cosmo also had a lot of these "lists" where women try to believe that their "tingles" have a basis in reason. It's not entirely a bad idea in theory if they are attempting to be responsible for their choices but she implemented this poorly.
She puts "taller than me" down at number 18 at only 10 points when this should be something like 200 points. The question to be asked, similar to what you proposed, is that if a guy is 5' tall but scores 200 points over a guy whose 6'2", will she take him over the tall guy? She puts "isn't shallow" immediately below even as she just had a "shallow" requirement right above it, herself, and she has a lot of baggage at her age.
Another aspect to the list would be for her to set up the ideal girlfriend for the man she's seeking above, preferably even to do "market research" and ask men what they want, and have them set up points evaluations accordingly. If she demands 400 points for "boyfriend material", does she have a 400 point valuation for that particular man? And THAT'S something they don't want to do because it will force them to admit that they squandered their "points" during their youth. She bases her points ENTIRELY upon her list of demands without assessing market value.
Finally, she makes a bit deal about the man not pushing for sex too early and to try to grab commitment (the number 1 tool in the feminine toolbox) but this doesn't work with any man past a particular "points" valuation. Another grossly under-valuated item in her list if the man paying for dates and a man paying for dates won't spend months risking getting friendzoned while paying for her fun time making lists.

NO!!! he can only be a plate, have you never heard about plate theory?
they want her to look stupid, not only with spreadsheet but out herself as single wiredo - after all, what normal woman would do such thing so overt, online
on that, she probably froze some. She will advertise this sheet for another 10y, thinking her frozen eggs are insurance policy :)
Also have a look at her behaviour. She doesn't look bitchy or angry, actually feminine and having balls to show weird stuff online. I think she is b-cluster.
I won't spend thinking on it but it stinks that items on 'spare' list has scores higher than 'must' list.
Also negative list :) we can assume what she has too much experience with.
Funny that list.

1) the perfect “marketing strategy” for a woman is to get yourself a boyfriend that can lead to marriage when you’re 18-22. Before hopping on the CC. It’s a lot easier to sell water to a man who has been wandering the desert all day, than it is to sell dirt to them. She might think that this is genius sales and marketing, but the product for sale is demonstrably worse.
2) as alluded to before, the product matters. Because, you see, this is a zero sum game. It’s not like you’re trying to sell a product like insurance or education, where maybe they use another product now but might switch to yours in the future. This is men looking for a wife, and you only get one shot at that. So if anyone is going to offer them a better product, they’re going to take that. Right now, this broad’s strategy appears to be the equivalent of a borderline out of business private university with a degree mill reputation deciding to only accept students who have the grades and test scores to attend prestigious schools, and then being shocked when no one enrolls.

She told all in the beginning, she was tired of meeting guys who weren’t serious. She gave it away that she’s chasing Chad and everyone knows Chad isn’t gonna wife up an old has been. If she was giving normal everyday guys a chance I bet she’d find many suitors wiling to wife her up and date her seriously but they don’t match up with her spread sheet. They’re willing to do what she’s demanding they do, but she’s disqualifying them for superficial qualities they lack. Bet on it.
Seagram7 Jr. Hamster Analyst 1y ago
This is what melts my mind with women like this: Chad can do better. A guy that fits the qualifications of that spreadsheet can and will do better than her. A guy that fits that spreadsheet will get younger and/or hotter than her. These women seriously need to take a good look in the mirror and be realistic about what they can get.
Way before I started reading TRP but was vaguely aware was when it got around that a coworker was paying for a matchmaker that specialized in finding rich husbands. Even back then I looked at her and saw a dumpy almost fat build, a constant resting bitch face like she was pissed off at the world, and finally on the wrong side of 35. I would think "WHY would a rich single guy go for her???" It still blows my mind how delusional some women are.
OPPTRP 1y ago
A lot of her requirements don’t make sense or conflicting
Wants a baby - well he may want one but you won’t be able to provide him with one Wants to be married - in the next line she says wants a relationship. Well either she doesn’t realise how marriage works or she is settling for atleast a relationship
Doesn’t push for sex - well how are you gonna make that baby?
As vermillion has said, this list is stupid. It’s clearly been accumulate through her years on CC of things she doesn’t like especially the deductions but she still dated men like that.
I’m guessing she sees it as well if he ticks all these boxes there’s no way he wouldn’t be my dream man. But nobody is perfect and he could but not be attractive enough or be infertile or whatever. It’s good to have a basal requirement but if you ask women to list what they cover in the opposite end they’d struggle.
If you’re writing a list of those requirements then you should also provide the opposite benefit

If she's looking for a husband with whom to have a kid at 42, her best bet is a homeless camp.
Lone_Ranger Sr. Hamster Analyst 1y ago
stop it chunky, those brothers got problems enough as it is.
Justanaverageguy 1y ago
She’s attractive enough to find a husband right now if she wants. Her problem is the TYPE of man she’s demanding to come along and marry her. And we all know the type of man she’s holding out for.
Lone_Ranger Sr. Hamster Analyst 1y ago
she might be able to find a husband - here's the deal. She could have a guy thats divorced, in his mid 50s. Has his own grown up kids. Does not and will not have more. (I have plenty friends like that). That is what she can get...IF she behaves herself. She would have to behave very very well for the deal to be worth if for this guy. Best behaviour means that she puts her guy first, worships him, does everything for him. Makes him feel good. Frequent and enthusiastic sex. Is nice to her step children. Makes him look good when they go out. Cooks and cleans. Keeps the house nice.
BUT...we all know that she will NOT be able to behave herself. The reason we know this? Because she is an attractive woman over 40 and she is single. that is possibly the biggest red flag that you will ever see. It's a surer sign of unsuitability than any other red flag I can think of, including facial tattoos. She has blown through countless relationships because she is an egotist. I guarantee you that she would not be able to behave properly in a relationship. She would find it next to impossible to behave for 2-3 hours it would take to have dinner.
Justanaverageguy 1y ago
I can also guarantee that all of those relationships she’s blown through in the past were not her fault at all, to hear her tell it. To expect her to behave like you laid out in your post is expecting way too much.
Lone_Ranger Sr. Hamster Analyst 1y ago
When I say that most women have no idea how to behave in a relationship, I mean the following:
This woman will be bursting to tell you all about her prior lovers. She'll want to tell you in graphic detail all about the amazing chads that have been railing her. She probably wont be able to get through the first date without telling the guy about how many men she's had that are way superior to the guy who is taking her on the date.
That is why she is single. Becuase she has NO idea what men want. And she is not curious to find out. She only wants to put her demands into a tidy list.

Yeah women don’t understand that as they get older, the men who have all the attributes that they want who would also want them tend to be much older. Like a normal boyfriend range for this woman is 42-52. A higher value man for a boyfriend age range is like 55-70.

Since she's a marketing person, she does realize that she's the one who has to "sell" herself, so to speak? Right? I mean, she doesn't assume that a Ferrari will be choosing its driver, right? Or that the fizzing green mystery meat on the "MUST GO" rack isn't exactly destined for a celebrity gourmand who's looking for a cut of wagyu.

polishknight WAATGM Endorsed 1y ago
A better way of putting it LotL, is she has to CLOSE the deal. She sees this in terms of a "sales funnel" where she can go online and get tons of men to hit on her. So all she has to do is just pick out the best one like a shopping search engine. This may be why she has as one requirement to demand he pay for dates and wait for bedroom fun. It's a principle in sales where I guess that's why they draw out the negotiations and "let me go talk to my manager"?
Her list is useful to show that she's not honest or aware of how much she weighs particular things. For example: non-smoker is weighed less than camping. To most people, smoking is a major issue (pro or con.)

She took marketing classes, but what she really should have taken is classical Economics. The most relevant part of Econ would 'sticky prices', or if you want the fancy term, 'nominal rigidity'.
Sticky prices perfectly describes the situation whereby the market changes (due to supply or demand or inflation or something) but the merchants have this price stuck in their heads, which is based on historic prices. This is far more common than you think. The price of diamonds is crashing right now, and stock holders all over the world are going bankrupt because the following has happened - synthetic diamonds! The new diamonds come along, they look and feel exactly like the old diamonds, but they are half the price. The traditional jewellers believe that they are 'experts' (the experience fallacy) and will not let sell their old stock at a market clearing price. They cannot comprehend the decline, because in their 40 year experience, prices only go up (inflation). So they wait. And the prices go down even more.
this is exactly what has happened to this woman. Her value has fallen dramatically. I can see that she used to have a high value. But she has fallen for the 'sticky prices' bias, and she cannot comprehend that, as they say in the markets...'Price has no memory'.
Lone_Ranger Sr. Hamster Analyst 1y ago
She labels this 'my marketing plan to find a man' ....but she is doing absolutely nothing to market her product. Nothing. She doesn't seem to understand, in the slightest, what marketing means. All she is doing is creating a list of criteria that disqualifies what few customers there may be in the market that might have some interest in the product.
This is the opposite of a marketing plan. This is a plan to drive a business into bankruptcy, by simply disqualifying any and all possible clients.

For your amusement (be sure to have a few drinks you), youtube "how I hacked online dating amy webb" Amy's situation was remarkably similar: A pseudo-scientific list of demands, not terribly good looking, and a ticking biological clock.

"Hi, I'm from the Wahmen's Marketing Agency. The first all-female marketing agency. You hired me to market your car that's still sitting in the lot and hasn't sold? Well, I'm back with an awesome plan. Here it goes: When a customer even glances at the car, tell him he must have a million dollars in his bank account, be ready to sign the contract in the next 5 minutes, and be willing to spend an additional $10,000 in repairs that will come due in the next 3 months. And if he's not willing to do that, then he should GTFO of our dealership!"
"But ma'am, no one's glancing at the car, that's why we hired you to--"
"I'm not finished! If he doesn't run away and dares to ask for a test drive, tell him he's not qualified. This car is too cool for him. He's not fit enough to drive this amazing car, and anyway, the seat doesn't move far enough forward for his short stature. Tell him test drives are useless because a hundred guys have test driven the car already with no sale, so from now on, no more test drives!"
"But wait, we hired you to make the car more attractive, not think up new ways to drive away people from our dealership. The only thing we can control is the car. Do you have any ways to make it more saleable?"
[Looks angrily at the naive dealer] "Does Ferrari do anything to market their cars?! You have to put a deposit sight-unseen to even qualify to get on the wait-list to snatch one up the minute it's manufactured!"
"But this isn't a Ferrari..."
"It's red, isn't it?"
"Ferraris have insane demand because they're rare, have powerful engines, amazing handling, and styling that takes your breath away. The red color is a minor detail."
"Nonsense! The essence of a car's desirability is its paint job! And this car, being red, is just as good as a Ferrari! All this talk about horsepower, torque, handling, etc. is old fashioned and frankly offensive. This car knows its worth, even if you refuse to recognize it! In fact, you should double down by smearing mud on it and demanding at least 2 million dollar net worth! That's the way to market this car!"
"This car has been sitting on the lot for a year and parts are starting to rust and I need--"
"Vintage Ferraris go for more money than new ones. You should raise your price!"
[dealer pauses for a second, incredulous] "So... Let me get this straight: we have a used Honda Accord that we need to sell ASAP, and your marketing plan to make the car more attractive to a potential buyer, is to raise the price, smear mud on it, and insult any potential buyers, all in the hopes that someone will be foolish enough to mistake it for a vintage Ferrari, because it's red and we're treating the buyer like shit?"
"Exactly!"
"And... How many cars have you sold?"
"I don't see where actual results have to do with anything here."
[Dealer shoves the marketing lady out the door] "Thanks, we'll take it from here. Bill, can you buff the leather and wax the outside, and drop the price? Maybe if we emphasize Honda's reliability and fuel economy we can finally get this thing off our lot before we have to send it to the scrap heap."

that's just the thing - she's not diverse at all.
Corporate marketing and HR is basically all women and gays.

Anyone who isn't a heterosexual white man is diverse!

I don't know about you, but I laughed out loud when she had to scroll down her list of requirements, because they wouldn't fit on the screen!

Yeah, if she’s only 42, then I’m Bruce Wayne. Honestly, one wonders if she’s ever considered whether or not she fits into the plan or any high value man.

Wait, wait, wait. How old were you again?
Is this how looking at a gory accident looks like?
...And then she showed her list of requirements. Oh, the hue manatee

If she were fat (or at least fat enough to tell that she is in the limited amount of body shown), I'd correct that to "oh, the huge manatee!".

There is a great chance that at 42, she will forgo any sort of protection and hope that at least one of her remaining eggs hasn't gotten rotten yet cos women like this would rather risk becoming a single mother than fail totally in life.

You say that as though they're not the exact same thing!
Oddest-One-Here Jr. Hamster Analyst 1y ago
From a woman's POV which is a greater failure, becoming a middle aged single mother or failing to either marry or have any children?
We know that single motherhood often leads to bad results for the children, but that's just that damn logic and reasoning you expect from good men.

You got that right. Her being concerned about height is entirely superficial, no matter how much women will claim that it is not. Every excuse, from "I like to feel small" to "I like to wear heels" is just about her wanting to have a superficial
preferencerequirement without claiming to be shallow.Typo-MAGAshiv asshole. giga-shitlord. worst mod EVAR. 1y ago
That jumped out at me immediately as well.
I scrolled the comments to make sure I wouldn't be redundant.
fucker beat me to it!

I like to leave some observations for others to pick up on their own, as it is no fun if I just list everything I see.
