Thread: The Wall is real: Article and nice animated gif of all the singles in the USA

While the article doesn't discuss this (I'm sure the writer doesn't even know the term, 'The Wall') the graphic is amazing.

Cities that predominantly had a surplus of men magically turn to a surplus of women as the dreaded wall crushes their youthful looks and 'charm'.

Young gentlemen, there is no need to fret as you age, since there will be an abundance of aging twats from which you may choose - to ignore - as you merrily go your own way!

"However, as the single population pushes past 50, the tables seem to turn, and single women start to outnumber their male counterparts, as this GIF of Soma's maps shows:"

I am a 59 year old white American man married to a 31 year old Filipina. I have become hooked into the local Filipina network, which is much larger than I knew before being married to one. Last Friday I went to the 50th birthday party of a Filipina that works in the same company that I do, in the same building and on the floor above me. We had a fire drill yesterday and I ended up seeing and talking with her for a while. The guy I was with (42) asked about her and I said I had been to her 50th birthday party the prior Friday. He was amazed, 50 year old women weren't supposed to look like that. I reply expecially to look that good in yoga pants and a slightly long shirt. I extended this by saying Asian women tend to age well for a long time, and then go over the cliff. With the age difference, by the time my wife goes over that cliff I will be very, very, old.

The entire above notwithstanding, if I were single I would not care one whit about the "advantage" of men over women in my age group and older in the US. I am not interested in them for many reasons, and have not been interested for decades. Most are saggy and ugly, the few that aren't are still horrible people that I will go to a lot of trouble to keep out of my life. I am sorry to inform the younger guys that hope that these women will age out of the disgusting sense of entitlement and become decent human beings; it is not in the cards. The damage is permanent. Don't play the waiting game thinking women’s attitudes will improve as their advantages decrease; they won't. GTHO.

Great graphic. Thanks for sharing. As this generation ages and avoids marriage, the volume of singles is only going to increase.

They don't explain the why but i'll give it a crack.

As a gender, Men die sooner and more often than women. Bachelor men tend to die earlier than married men. Men make up 93% of workplace deaths. Wives of married men attempt to keep them healthy (if only to exploit them for labor and resources). A certified pre-owned man (post divorce finances in tact) is much more likely to remarry as opposed to 2 thugspawn chubberella.


The statistic also leaves out other key information such as long term cohabitation which to my knowledge is still considered single.


What I am interested to know is the difference in quality of life between a single man and a single woman through the ages. I would wager the quality of life for a man skyrockets compared to women in the later age brackets. This is somewhat confirmed by post divorce stories of men getting a second lease on life while divorced women generally see a decline in standard of living.

The dilemma in quantifying female happiness is, theyll always adapt to unhappiness no matter their material state-because unless theyre on the material upswing, theyre unhappy. A man can decide for himself how to define what he considers happiness, and it may have nothing to do with material wealth. Theres men Ive known who would rather hump rifles in jackedupistan then set foot in a Mercedes dealership as a customer, even if they did have the money.

Females, however, want more of everything at all times. Even a damned interstellar Black Hole stops consuming at the Event Horizon.

One might see a similar graph depicting the numbers of men apparently 'disappearing' as time progresses, word spreads, and they go ghost.

Perhaps it could be entitled the WHATGMG chart.

The chart above is the definitive 'Wall Chart'.

This is no longer the case.

Also, women do not marry men who live under bridges. Women marry the wealthiest and fittest of men correlating to a married man's longer life span. As more and more MGTOW, the rise in single man life expectancy is shooting up because MGTOWs have money and are fit but choose not to marry.

Marriage = Death.

Bachelor men tend to die earlier than married men

I might be the case that these figures included divorced men, which skews the life expectancy downwards owing to the severe punishment meted out to them.

I think if you compared men who have never married to married men, it might be a different story.

I've made this arguement in the past as well. I have yet to see a study that does not lump divorced men in with single men. I have seen one study that at least acknowledged that this might bias the results, but they did it anyway.

I think another factor in this animated GIF is that it is for metropolitan areas only. I think a good deal more single men decide to retire to the sticks and away from the annoying herd of women. The hunting and fishing is better and the cost of living is lower. Women, on the other hand, probably want to stay in the burbs or move downtown for the "cultural" activites.
