Mate Selection for Modernity
7th November 2021
Dating and the process of mate selection have changed. The rise of hook-up culture, proliferation of dating apps, and ever-increasing age of first marriage are evidence of this. This current situation can be summarized along four parameters:
- Increasing female achievement.
- Growing variability in male status and competence.
- An evolutionary desire among females to marry up.
- The globalization of the sexual marketplace and resultant collapse of local status hierarchies.
Together, these conditions have created pronounced imbalances in the modern sexual marketplace. Put plainly, an increasing cohort of successful women are chasing a shrinking number of high-value, commitment-averse men.
Think about it: Is a rich man more likely to want to marry a woman like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortiz, or one like Melania Trump? The question answers itself, and it’s bad news for the AOCs of the world.
I predict that Greta Thunberg has a long spinsterhood to look forward to.

Not only spinsterhood; PLEASE GOD, don’t let her reproduce! That DNA needs to come to an end.

From your lips to God’s ear.
