A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Edit: because a few comments make me worry that some are taking this seriously - this meme is a play on the type of hopeless dating posts you might find in less healthy corners of the internet. The joke is a suggestion that the real problem is that one man in the image has some sort of arrow-attracting superpower.
It could be true, but maybe not. If we are talking about dating, sure. Men are more likely to swipe right on women than the other way around. But how about marriage or longer term relationships? If you were 18, would you be willing to marry a poor, fat, ugly 29-year-old "independent" women who smokes with kids?
Some guys would do that because they know they won't have a chance to get a 'better' woman.
The problem is women and men are different and they treat each other differently.
No man would would push down a young beautiful woman from the edge of a bed. Women notice that and are flattered that they are wanted so much. Honestly women only need not to be obese and the guys will line up. But that's only true for young woman. After 30-35-year-old most women beauty diminish rapidly.
Men on the other hand age visibly slowly. A lot of women still judge them handsome when the guys are already 40 or 50 years old. (There are of course ugly 40 and 50 years old.) But young men are more often only playthings and only the 6-6-6 ones have a good shot a being choosy.
You have a lot of rules in your head that don't exist. Where did you learn these things? As a 40-something man who has lived a lot of life, nothing you're saying here lines up with my observations of reality
I'm also 40-something and I see all that stuff around me. It's hard not to notice. All the (6) colleagues in my office room are divorced and in most cases the (ex-)wife is the reason. And when I see the other women... there aren't a lot of good choices.
