gen z dating advice is HORRIBLE
this might not seem ultra related to style, but iโve seen similar posts made on topics like these, so i wanted to talk about it here too, since one of the focused here is self improvement and the topics related to it. โwomen are all shallow, hypergamous monsters who suck the souls out of menโ โmen are shallow, slobby, gross bigots who only want sexโ -pretty much every dating coach on social media ever. being gen z kinda sucks in this realm. but one of the worst aspects of it is the dating culture now. or should i say, the mirage of dating culture. social media has done great benefits for us, but in my personal opinion, has done more harm than good, at least when unregulated. echo chambers, messed up dopamine levels, extreme opinions, and a constant feed of biased information are deeply bad for us. a lot of us lack commitment, emotional maturity, and genuine understanding and compassion of others. and one of the worst things to arise from it, has been a massive surge of manosphere content. now i donโt have issues with everything the manosphere has to say. i think it does have good aspects, like self respect, discipline, reclaiming masculinity, and working hard to achieve your goals. those are great things and should absolutely be taught. but then when it gets to its extreme, it gets dangerous. for one, itโs the treatment of women and reducing them down to sex objects and robots. on these online forums regarding incel redpill and blackpill topics, thereโs an extremely derogatory and dehumanizing word that gets thrown around, called โfoidโ, which is meant to reduce women down to harmful stereotypes and dehumanize them. if you really wanna dive deeper into it, i donโt recommend it, itโs disgusting. the other thing i see is the harmful mindset of โus vs themโ. now for me personally, i used to be on these deep manosphere forums and consumed the content. professional victimhood is one of the biggest things ive seen. its defeatist, deterministic, โus vs themโ worldview that views everyone else enemies, and anything bad that happens, well its everyone elseโs fault.
