The rise of lonely single men, explained.

A current theme in the media is about “the rise of lonely men” and “why women don’t want to marry or have children in 2024”. They just can’t seem to figure out why, but maybe, if they actually asked real women instead of boardroom tables full of corporate men, they would get a clue.

The reason for both of these epidemics is simple, Men.

I have female friends of most ages, and we ALL experience the same issues with men. Teenage boys display the same behaviors of men in their fifties. It’s almost as if their brains never develop fully, that they never matured enough to meet women in the emotional capacity that we now require. For centuries they have ruled the roost, they have been catered to, and they have been given women on a platter. But we have reached a point where we are no longer accepting what they are serving. Women are done with men’s bullshit.

We are tired of minimal effort, and it is definitely proven given the current dating statistics, that men aren’t great in the effort department. We are done with the lying, we know every time you do it. We are done with the ghosting out for weeks at a time, you’re officially dead in our book now. We are sick of watching your online behavior and all of the Instagram models that you follow. Spoiler, she’s never going to fuck you. We are tired of not being a priority in your life, you spent 7 hours at your fantasy draft, you could have text. We are tired of seeing Snapchat notifications on your phone, you’re 35 grow up. We are done with the six month situation-ship because you “like to take things slow”, you’re waisting our fucking time. We know you are hiding us from your friends, and they were probably boring anyway.

We don’t need you to pay our bills, we probably make more than you. We don’t want weddings, we want travel. We don’t need sex, we can please ourselves. We don’t want coffee dates, thats what we do with our girl friends. We can buy our own houses. A lot of us Don’t Want Kids, so there goes procreation! We don’t want to watch the Spiderman movie. We don’t want to be friendly with your ex, because you guys are really good friends. Our girl friends fulfill every emotional need that you refused to provide. As the great Miley Cyrus once said, “I can buy myself flowers”. We can provide every need we have, so what are YOU bringing to the table?

I could go on an on here, but you get the picture. Until Men take responsibility and actually change, the birthrate will continue to drop and marriage may cease to exist altogether!

I know dozens of independent, smart, career driven, funny, sexy, successful, women and all of us are in the same position with men.

It’s not Us, it’s that they can’t rise to meet us.

We are Queens and deserve no less. And if men want to return to being kings, they need to stop acting like the Fool.
