Like, why is it so widespread, what causes it, what solutions are available, etc. I don’t really know how to ask this question so I hope I’m making sense

      I think maybe those words are true, but they are so generic they don’t say anything to me.

      I think women has changed due to social media, and that’s causing the men loneliness.

        Men that have been captured by the “alpha” and “masculinity” culture don’t realize that it makes them fucking radioactive. They are literally the reason why women choose the bear. Boys thinking that they have to be hyperbolic, over-aggressive, possessive, manipulative assholes in order to be a “man” are the exact reason that they are lonely.

        These men don’t have a god given right to just “have” a girlfriend.
