Default Is it easier for girls to find a date/mate?

My insecurities - post #2

And another thing that bugs me...it seems that it is *far* easier for a girl to find companionship than a guy...why is that?

I think that part of it has to do with the fact, that for some complicated evolutionary reason, men are expected to "woo" a girl, to "go after" her, and girls, well, expect to be "gone after"...(only once have I known a girl that went after *me*, and she was also the same girl that prefered short guys...maybe it's all a confidence thing...she had a lot of it...)

Anyway, and because guys are always looking "for some action", they will circle just about *any* girl on the planet. There is an old joke/saying that if a guy want's to get laid, he goes to a bar, chases girls around, and usually goes home alone...but if a girl really wants to get laid, she just goes into a bar, stands on the counter, and anounces that she wants a guy and the *entire* bar will fight over her...it' true..and also, most girls are really *not* prone to do something like this...

Because girls don't even have to do *that* much work to get a guy, they just have to, well, *be* a girl...

(Now if a girl wants a *quality* guy, that's another story...)

So people...is it easier for girls to find a mate, or am I just getting insecure and hopeless???

To find a "mate" or just get laid?

If the former, probably harder than it is for us men, considering the way we treat them.

If the latter, all she has to do is say, "yes."

Just finding someone to have sex with is probably easy. I imagine most women wouldn't have problems doing that.

Finding someone to actually have a relationship with is much more difficult.

You're kidding right? I think it's a known fact that it is possible for any female mammal, no matter how disfigured or dysfunctional, to get laid anytime she wants to just by sticking her ass up in the air. Some of us find that super boring and make it more challenging by seeking other females. And I still think I have it easier than most males in that regard.

I missed insecurity #1. I'll look around for it.

If we're talking about coupling with 1 man and 1 woman, wouldn't the odds overall be about the same (if the population is roughly 50/50)? Or is that males' definition of "ease" is harder to meet because frequency if more important to them (in general terms)?

I'm with Koy and Wildheart.

It's probably easier for women to get laid, but trust me, it's not a cakewalk to find a decent relationship (and that's not a man-bashing comment, it really is just plain hard work on both sides).

I think there's more females who are not looking.
