I recently realised that I am attracted to women besides men. All of the men I had liked turned out to be taken and all the guys who had liked me don't meet my standards (I really don't think this has to do with me being a closeted lesbian as I am definitely attracted to men but a lot of men cannot meet bare minimum standards). There were women who had liked me in the past but I didn't date them as I saw myself as fully straight back then.
Now that I think about it, the women who had liked me are more HV than the men who had liked me. The women are kinder, more genuine, more attractive, wealthier, and have more stable employment. I wonder why this happened. Are women more likely to be HV or is this just a coincidence? Despite how I heavily preferred men in the past, maybe I am meant to be with a female SO instead of a male one (meeting single HVM is so difficult...).
As a bisexual women who has dated both sexes, I believe there are definitely more HV women than men. I don't see adult women living with their parents and shamelessly leeching off of them. Women are more likely to pursue higher learning. Women don't treat other women like their personal sex toy. Women don't neg. Women appreciate emotional labor. Women do their fair share. Women know how to actively listen. Women are much less entitled. And best of all: women know where the clitoris is! So from my experience, I believe the ratio of HV women to HV men is at least 50:1.
There are definitely more HV women than men out there. The patriarchy props up men and actively works to brainwash women into being pickmes. Men don't have to work hard for anything because most things are just handed to them, by virtue of their sex. Just take a look down the street next time you leave your house - most men are so substandard, it's embarrassing.
I dated a woman, she was empathetic and caring. and when we both felt no connection: easy mutual break up.
I don't know about dating women but I definitely think there are a lot of HVW compared to men.
First of all - women are much more often seeking help and self development. Majority of people visiting psychologists, psychiatrists, coaches are women. Women purchase most of self help books.
Second - what men are calling now "going their own way" is a basic skill set that an average teenage girl already has. Men suddenly discovered that simple possession of dick is not enough and now they are slowly learning basic skills like hygiene (not as common as one would think), taking care of their body/clothes/looks. Pursing a job that allows moving out from parents and living on their own. For example it's a common problem that a lot of women left rural places and moved to big cities. What they keep on telling is that men were left behind, instead of saying that young ladies were brave to leave and find their way somewhere else. That requires skills, bravery and strong will.
Can you contact the women you knew from when you were “straight?”
