"Tempting though it may be to imagine that in the West progressive values have somehow abolished our evolved tendencies to intrasexual and inter-sexual competition for the best mates, evidence suggests otherwise."

I don't think there's a macro solution to this phenomenon. I also quite like the current state of affairs, to be honest. I don't really see why women should 'settle' for men who they aren't attracted to.
The only real solution to this conundrum - or one that doesn't limit women's sexual freedom - is better dating/lifestyle advice for men rather than the garbage put out by the mainstream. A lot of men don't deserve a girlfriend; but they've grown up feeling entitled to one
I think the focus on hypergamy can be too reductive also. Some of the friends of mine who have the most 'success' in this area - for want of a better term - aren't in particularly well-paid jobs etc. They're getting laid a lot though, and it boils down to being attractive
Not even necessarily the best looking, wealthiest men. But the confident ones who aren't afraid of their sexuality and don't judge the women they hook up with. Funny that when people drop the Madonna/Whore crap women start to behave differently towards them
Almost as if misogynistic attitudes damage men too.
There are some really unfortunate cases in the Incel community of people struggling to overcome deformities etc. which people judge them for. But a lot simply don't want to change (become more attractive) and feel that it should somehow 'just happen'. Afraid not.
Anyway, I didn't intend for this to be a thread, but there you go. We should encourage men to work on themselves and develop their attractive side. It's better than the alternatives.
And final point: I don't think 'virgin' or 'incel' are particularly enlightened insults, even though I frequently see them used that way. A person's worth is not defined by how many people they have sex with, in any sense.
