Nobody seems to talk about how much gender ratios affect things. I believe a lot of the social problems (incel epidemic) stems from this.
Women simply have way too many options, this means the bar keeps getting higher and higher for the average man (Every guy in Australia is a gym junkie) and the bar keeps getting lower and lower for women (most Aussie girls are overweight).
Giving one gender so much power is extremely unhealthy for society.
California, especially Southern California, has had a reputation for pretentiousness going back to at least the 1980s. California culture didn't start affecting the other, non-coastal Western states until the 2000s or so. Californians have ruined the culture in Nevada, Arizona, and Colorado to varying degrees.I think what I have hated about the west coast in general is how fake the people from it are compared to people out east. Whites are arguably some of the worst from the west coast but I have seen the major difference in the black population. I grew up in Atlanta and down south, a lot of black folks are humble, cool, and pretty chill. Meanwhile, literally every black dude I've known from California was entitled, arrogant, and spoiled because of how the liberals treated them.
One weird thing I have noticed about the Arizonas, Colorados, and west coast states is that the mixture of clout chasing, liberal white guilt, and desperately trying to be cool culture works out well for black guys. I have known a handful of black dudes who did reasonably well in Arizona and Colorado but as soon as they came to the east coast, they were ironically incels because they didn't get the same pandering that they got from west coast women.
As we've talked about before, there is a decent amount of clout chasing in Metro Phoenix. It's most evident if you're spending time around Scottsdale and Tempe. Scottsdale was a chill suburb with a old Western-ish vibe until 1990s, when it started to act more pretentious in an imitation Westside Los Angeles area like Beverly Hills or Malibu.
You've accurately depicted interactions with white women in Southern California and Arizona. A lot of people in Arizona (applicable to both Phoenix and Tucson) are also California transplants. In Southern California and Arizona, there's a culture of white guys being total try hards to impress image conscious, clout chasing white women.@SW15
I think the main difference between west coast women and east coast women, at least when we are talking white girls, is that I think west coast girls are far more image conscious, clout chasing, and popularity driven. Could have to do with the closeness to Hollywood but I do notice that whatever Hollywood portrays as cool, west coast women are crazy and they seem to be more in the know of recent media trends. Meanwhile, I notice how Southern women and East Coast women even, are far less caring of that and care more of a human to human level.
With west coast girls, it seems like the go to way to win is to play popularity games, DHV, and almost neg their status in a way. I see it with local dudes too where So Cal guys are constantly trying to be popular and turn everything into a high school popularity contest. Meanwhile, I notice how East Coast guys and even Southern guys (outside of Atlanta), are far more straightforward, blunt, and get right to it.
So I could see social circle game being the lay of the land if you are in a California or Arizona. Meanwhile, I could see actual game working on the east coast where people are more gritty and straightforward.
Dallas has had some of that pretentiousness for a long time. Dallas has been a fashion hub for a while. Neiman Marcus was founded in Dallas. There's a reason Hollywood chose to feature the city of Dallas on the 1980s TV show "Dallas".
