My prediction for dating by 2028 and beyond the foreseeable future

[H8CourtshipWithAPassion]

well the birth rate is declining a lot i think

 

[Slowhandluke]

my guess a lost generation of men who are now in 2025 between the ages of 20-40 will be chewed up as feminism comes to an end.

Will have alot of old spinster and older men who buckle down and will date young. By the time gen alpha/beta gets online most of the wrongs from boomers to millennials will start to be taken seriously and they will probably be on a corrective path. Yes we are in for hard times but there is hope. I think men who give up now are only destroying their future. The women who stay single will be prophets for the young generation that feminism is not the way. The men who stay buckled down will be heroes. Id say be 2045 things will start to course correct. But the next 20 years are going to be a hell on earth for the west.

THIS IS THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE

things will self correct. No zombie apocalypse. I agree young women will date older men. average older women will be left out like how they they left out the average men when they were younger.

Sadly, what goes arround, comes arround...

THIS IS THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE

No need for a Zombie Apocalypse we are already in the late stages of an economic collapse. There is a reason why Trump is gong crazy with Tariffs, America is broke (36 Trillion In debt) heck the whole world is broke. Here is what I see happening within the next 10 years

• Unemployment will see epic proportions that haven't been seen since the Great Depression, affecting both men and women
• The CEO of AI firm Anthropic says that AI could wipe out nearly half of all entry-level jobs
• He predicts employment to be 10-20% within 5 Years
• Inflation prices will soar to record numbers to the point that even affording basic essentials will be at luxury prices
• Women Will be happy if a guy takes them to Applebee's or heck even Mcondald's!
• Women will be more picky but a lot of women will get a harsh wake-up call when they notice they are getting asked out on far fewer dates. When times get tough, men do not spend on frivolous things like dating
• A correction is coming, do not be shocked to see more women embrace (grudgingly) traditional gender roles again due to the fact that even their cushy job is not safe from AI, inflation etc.
• During tough economic times women seek stability, protection and provision
• No more hot girl summer, no more entitled demand videos on Tik Tok or IG, The humbling witll be a reality shock to most women
• Women will focus on learning domestic skills again due to inflation being so crushing that, it will be cheaper to sew and make your own clothes for example then to go to a store and buy some
• Men who have their stuff together financially will be highly sought after.
• Men who have the ability to make their own food, or live on land will be sought after more

I have a friend who lost her great 6-figure job recently due to AI, as much as people like to tout themselves as redpill. I'm shocked that most men aren't talking enough about the acceleration of AI it's going to affect everything. Including dating. The high on the hog days that women have had in dating the last 25 years are done. Things are going back to basics, a reset is coming

Ehh, gotta disagree tbh. The golden age of the average beta male was post-WW2 to the feminism era, and it there were no dangerous times or economic hardship. The answer is that men still had all of the legal and economic power back then and this coincided with the America's economic boom which made the average men essentially OP. Your average man could comfortably support a family on a basic job and maintained legal dominance. Pre WW2, the average man still had legal dominance, but they did not have the economic OPness of the boomer men. As long as women can work and economically compete with men, I do not see things going back to how things were especially for boomer men.

Unemployment typically tends to affect men more than women in white collar. Companies do prefer to lay off men over women. That said, in mass layoff scenarios, some women will be affected.

If entry level jobs are wiped out during the next 10 years, that's mainly going to affect Gen Z and the early members of the next generation (Generation Alpha).

AI might replace a good portion of white collar jobs. It won't be able to do most blue collar laborer jobs. Male blue collar workers will be better positioned. Laid off white collar males will have a difficult time transitioning to blue collar work.

There are still a lot of thirsty men out in the market. I find it difficult to envision a future where women are getting asked out on far fewer dates.

This could happen though I see this as less likely.

• A correction is coming, do not be shocked to see more women embrace (grudgingly) traditional gender roles again due to the fact that even their cushy job is not safe from AI, inflation etc.

As long as women can work and economically compete with men, I do not see things going back to how things were especially for boomer men.

Women have been career tracking for a long time. I'm an early Millennial. The girls that I went to high school with were preparing to spend their entire lives working.

It's possible that some laid off white collar women might try to transition into a traditional gender role scenario but that's going to be a tough adjustment since women have been career oriented since at least the 1970s.

Pre WW2, the average man still had legal dominance, but they did not have the economic OPness of the boomer men.

Beta males did better in the 1945-1970 period. Betas in this period were likely more masculine than the Millennial beta male. This era was mainly when the Silent Generation (late 1920s-1945 births) were young men, though the earliest of the Boomers got to experience this.

You said golden age for Beta Men, I never said Beta I said men who have their stuff together financially I'm not talking about a regular guy making 50K a year. As I said the AI thing is coming down faster then people realize, we are also in a "delayed Recission" also let's not forget Tariffs are still in play. Cost of living within the next 5 years is going to be through the roof and that is just the beginning. 10 years from now if you own your own house you will be considered rich.

Most Americans have no idea that this country is hanging on by a thread right now. In regards to dating, typically when there are hard times women tend to revert to dating for providers. If you have a CEO (not my words) stating unemployment will be 10-20% within 5 years make no mistake this will affect dating. You have Gen-Z who can't even afford to date what will happen when other generations can't either? The reckoning is coming and a lot of people are not ready for it. I expect the first major crack in the foundation to happen by October this year thus accelerating the process.

When This plays out don't say I didn't tell you so

 

[GoodMan32]

TLDR Summary....It is over for men lol. I wish I could predict a happy ending, but I simply cannot.

I might have already covered this topic before, but I wanted to give an update now that the election is over. It hasn’t even been a month yet, but I think I’ve seen enough to confidently make a prediction about the future of dating. Several factors are shaping the dating landscape, including a declining quality of life for the average American—stagnant wages, lower education levels, reduced disposable income, unstable employment, toxic work cultures in traditionally stable jobs, and rising crime rates. Honestly, I think we’re heading toward a dystopian future similar to what we see in developed Asian countries, but with a Western twist.

However, this does not apply to minorities in entrenched cultural like a black guy living in inner city Baltimore or Hispanic living in the valley.

1). Herbivore Men will now be the normal-

Your average man will be overweight, socially awkward, addicted to some substance, stuck in a dead-end job (or reliant on UBI if that becomes a thing), living with roommates at best, undereducated, mentally checked out, and clinging to some male demi-god father figure for guidance.

2). Femcels will now be a thing-

Femcels already exist, but they’ve mostly been limited to the stereotypical "crazy cat lady" type. However, this culture is now crossing over to include average and even attractive women. The era of the single, independent "boss babe" is well past its peak. Your typical dateable single woman will lead a lonely, unfulfilling life, receiving less attention from men and rejecting the corporate hustle and casual dating scene that Millennial and Gen X women once embraced. If you want a glimpse of what this future looks like, check out this video or the solo camping vlogs that many Asian women are posting on YouTube. Invest in Pet stock lol.

3). People will have less sex, and Hedonistic activities will be limited to the lower class, certain communities, and Rich People- As many men hated feminism and the boss babe caricatures, this allowed all men to have access to casual sex at ease. With this in decline, you will see less casual sex in the dating environment which will make the game less fun.

4). Social Circles and Service jobs will be the only avenues to meeting women-

If you don’t have a healthy social circle, your best bet is to become a bartender, waiter, or take any job that constantly puts you in social situations with women. Otherwise, you’re completely cooked, lol.

5). Online Dating & Cold Approaching will be in the History Books-

Online dating will basically turn into Chatroulette for women—chaotic, full of dvck pics, and unreliable and just completely unusable for men—and may even cease to exist, except for niche apps like Seeking. Cold approaching will become extinct as women become less receptive to random interactions due to rising crime rates, social fatigue, and declining self-esteem. If you’re not already part of a woman’s social circle or community, your chances of interacting with her are practically zero.

6). Chads will convert to Tradcons, resulting in the official end of the Fvck Boy era-

Gen Z has a lower tolerance for f***boys and "bad boys" compared to Millennials and younger Gen X. This is largely because they’re poorer on average, and every guy their age is trying to imitate that persona. In a world of rising crime, stagnant wages, and skyrocketing living costs, traditional "bad boys" won’t thrive the way they once did. Instead, the new "Chad" will be a Herculean, ultra-disciplined, Alpha TradCon-type figure—one who embodies strength, stability, and traditional masculinity....Of course looks will still be the main factor.


7). BOLD PREDICTON: White men will become the most active in interracial dating-

White men are going to call it quits with white women and start gravitating toward non-white women in large numbers. This shift will make things harder for Hispanic, Asian, and rogue Black men, as they’ll now be competing with white men for their own women. Meanwhile, white and assimilated women will become less open to dating in general. The only exceptions will be minority men who are deeply rooted in strong cultural or social circles where language, zip codes and traditions create a significant barrier to outside competition.


8). Men suicides, depression and violent crimes will begin to be a major concern-

Unfortunately, it is easier today then it will be tomorrow. If you think there's going to be a happy ending for men in the future, then you have not been paying attention.


In this new environment, men will have two choices:

1. Gamble the second half of their lives by diving into hedonistic communities—becoming a bartender, server, party boy, etc.
2. Embrace temporary monogamy while leveling up until they reach a position where attracting high-SMV women requires minimal effort.

As it is, many White men are willing to branch outside our race, yet incels remain disproportionately White.

Take it from me. A White man who's totally willing to branch outside his race, yet still hasn't had free sex in 4 years (and yeah, the woman from 4 years ago is outside my race...she's an immigrant from Mexico)

I guess what I'm trying to say is...even if the willingness to branch outside our race helps us to some degree (if I only nailed my own people, my last free sex would have been a decade ago), it isn't as effective of a fix as it gets made out to be.

As I said the AI thing is coming down faster then people realize, we are also in a "delayed Recission" also let's not forget Tariffs are still in play. Cost of living within the next 5 years is going to be through the roof and that is just the beginning.

Most Americans have no idea that this country is hanging on by a thread right now. In regards to dating, typically when there are hard times women tend to revert to dating for providers. If you have a CEO (not my words) stating unemployment will be 10-20% within 5 years make no mistake this will affect dating.

White collar work has been in recession since 2023. Go on LinkedIn. Layoff announcements are all over most people's newsfeeds.

The unemployment rate right now is likely higher than what's been reported. AI is one contributing factor to layoffs. A lot of new grads (both bachelor's and advanced degree holders) aren't getting hired.

Male unemployment is tied to declining SMV. Female unemployment barely affects their SMV.

Yeah, I think the country is beyond screwed because we really do not have an answer to BRICS who controls over half of the world's population currently and late capitalism. I think the US is going through its hyper-normalization period before shvt really hits the fan tbh.

Millennials and Gen Z are taking the worst of this in the USA. It's affecting their economic prospects and their SMVs if male.

That's great news for us men then, comparable to warlords throughout Sub-Saharan Africa hearing that The ICC has dissolved, and that humanity at large now rejects the very notion that war crimes exist. We'll soon be free to be cheapskates with abandon without being criticized for doing so, just as 'dem warlords would be free to saw the heads off of POWs and take 12 year old girls as concubines, without ever having an ounce of opprobrium hurled their way afterwards
