The herd isnt the problem
Take it apart for relationships and make it about jobs
You are “the one”
Looks matter, but looks is not what gets you laid
You and the herd
The limits on your mind
The stockholm codependent approval seeking syndrome
What are your chances of hitting a homerun?
No different in the SMP. It is a combination of individual influences that have accumulated into a big mess.

I agree that the overall freedom of choice to women has removed some of the freedom of choice of the beta men, since a lot of women are hypergamous in terms of the minimum level of man they’ll accept for casual sex or marriage while most men are happy with an equal for marriage and will go down in value for casual.

Did you watch the Tom Brady video yet? Only two minutes and full of awesomeness.
And I agree that the unfairness towards men in education, affirmative action and cultural bias against men makes it harder for them achieve career success which is still an important part of the man’s overall attractiveness, even though the value of the male provider role has been diminished.
Also, the cultural shaming of men and calling them creeps, potential rapists and patriarchally privileged only serves to discourage the average man from approaching women and having more self esteem and confidence. If you’re always on eggshells that a woman will think you’re a creep then you’re not going to be as able to display natural charm and confidence.
