Honestly so happy I’m married, I’m sorry for all of y’all. Dystopian times.
But hey to add my two cents: I think that fear is marketable, so women are over fed on paranoia.
At the same time, porn and propaganda have put bad expectations in some percentile of dumb men.
Both sexes are generally out of social practice, and societal trust is at an all time low. Most people are nice, but most people are also awkward.
So get out there and meet some people, don’t even do so romantically, just go learn how to interact with people, form some friendships.

This is the case with literally everything.
Used to hear about "no-go zones" in Stockholm in my local news a lot, areas where even the Swedish police were afraid to go in to. Then a friend of mine moved to Stockholm and started going to "the worst no-go zone" every weekend to get fresh produce. The only time he felt in danger was when he stumbled upon a drunk countryman.
This is kind of like how parents don’t let their kids play out anymore because the news told us it’s all pedophiles out there.
I wholeheartedly refute the assertion this comic makes that the word 'lock' is onomatopoeic.
Yep, that's just how it is these days. Let me ask though, does it really matter?
If the girls are afraid of the guys, that's their problem, not yours. Stick the time into something else you enjoy, let nature run it's course. Find a job you don't hate, spend your money as you like, live a happy life without the anxiety of rejection.
We're finally approaching some twisted semblance of equality via men becoming afraid of women in return ._.
Men who took the lesson to heart:
Ladies don't want to talk to you.
They don't want you to approach them.
They don't want you to initiate social interaction.
Men need to be less visible, less audible, overall less perceptible, because this coincides with them being less obnoxious.
Instead of teaching them to act in less obnoxious ways, society taught them to act less--period.
And so, I now see unironic posts showing up on social media of women asking each other (paraphrased),
"Why don't men ever talk to me anymore?"
"Why don't men ever approach me anymore?"
"Even when I see men in public, they never even acknowledge me. Why are they ignoring me? What is going on?"
A lot of folks heard the pleas of women wishing men would just leave them alone. And a fair proportion of the men acquiesced.
I mean, yeah, SOME didn't, and became even more obnoxious, but the chronically unfuckable bootlicking simps of the fascist grift are more miserable now than they've ever been; The few that "seem" "successful" are just poster children of survivorship bias, pied pipers leading the naive and highly suggestible to self-inflicted ruin.
I have divested myself of this bizarre tragedy of errors. Humans are humans. I treat humans like humans. If other people project weird freaky intentions upon me while I'm JUST trying to mind my own gods damned business existing within line of sight and vague proximity, that's THEIR skill issue. AT LEAST nonbinary asexual persons never get weird at me like the ones vested in all the maladaptive notions and festooned in toxic stereotypes... and it's refreshing. Good riddance to all the outdated reproductive caste dynamics. Good riddance to the gilded cage of having to drag-perform whatever the fuck I was assigned at birth.
Am I not getting this ?
“Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them“
Gender-ragebait. Just post something about how persecuted you feel and move on.
Men looking for women as romantic partners is like searching for potable water in a desert.
