I think this forum is a safe space to talk as long as you are respectful

It isn't if the argument you make is always framed as just sexist or misogynistic no matter what.

It depends how you frame your arguments/questions

Making negative sweeping generalizations about women (or men) IS sexist.

Are we not allowed to call a spade a spade? If the argument you make is sexist or misogynistic, it will be described as such and you'll have to deal with that.

You can't participate in this discussion if you talk about what you see in real life. You can only obsess about the pretty people.

And, apparently, you're not allowed to talk about real life. The only thing that matters is what happens on Tinder. /s

Didn't you know that everybody uses Tinder?
The world has 50 million inhabitants, 62% male and 38% female.

My son doesn't seem to have trouble getting girl friends, and he is not a "super hot man." He's just an average guy with his unique pros and cons in that department (of course I don't look at my son that way, but I hear enough).

The claims are bunk, advanced by guys who haven't taken the time to understand what it is they are doing that makes them across so poorly. It is never only about looks.

I do think the earlier poster who said the phenomenon may be true on places like Tinder does have a point. On-line dating services really are not great places to go looking for compatible personalities.

I saw a man about 5 foot 8 being kanoodled and kissed by a woman about 5 inches taller than him. He was not the "cat's pajamas" by any means. He was a rather scrawny fellow, actually.

When a woman wears high heels she will appear taller

This woman was wearing sneakers.....she was quite a tall woman naturally. She was quite a bit taller than the guy. At least five inches taller. I don't believe she would want to wear high heels.

One thing I can say: she was very feminine about the kanoodling. She even whispered "sweet nothings" into the guy's ear.
