Have hypergamy and dating fundamentally changed (worsened) since 2023, or is it more or less the same?

It’s worse , I get less matches , likes and more flaking now than I did even a couple years ago.

TikTok has exploded even more in that timeframe and has rotted the minds of most young foids in the west.

there is no hypergamy. nearly all women in every country are with men below their looks level.

if nearly everyone can go with the second one and still get access to the same pool of women, then what's the point of the first? even in the united states, it says only 27% of american women have even used a dating app before. being outgoing with proximity to attractive women was always the default method for slaying or locking down girls, with media promotion providing extra powerup boosts.

I would assume overall worse, with everything going more mainstream on TikTok influencing a whole bunch of teenage foids to pursue chad

not nearly everyone

Americans are extremely socially closed off

they love to wave and say "hey what's up!"

but to access true social life, as in being invited to bbqs and brunch, is another thing altogether

and when you factor in social environments where there's attractive women present? even rarer

it's also not "just be NT", you need to be high ranking in order to attract women via social circle game, you can't be a pick-on or a jester
