Man Criticizes the Flawed Logic of Men Claiming Women’s High Standards Are the Reason for the Growing Single Population
It is absurd for one gender to blame the other for ending up single.
Men frequently blame women for the growing single population by claiming they have unrealistic ideals that no man can ever live up to. However, they are more likely to be viscerally single and feel lonelier than ever.
The truth is that women are not single because they have high expectations. They have them for a reason, and if they are alone in life, it is due to their own choices.
As Dr. Ramani Durvasula, a clinical psychologist, notes, "High standards are often a reflection of self-respect and the desire for a healthy relationship, rather than an unrealistic expectation." This perspective sheds light on how heterosexual males unknowingly project their insecurities about being single onto women.
Dr. Durvasula further explains that men who blame single women for having high standards are often projecting their own insecurities onto them. It takes courage to confront these societal norms, and her insights resonate with many who seek the truth about relationship dynamics.
As she articulates, understanding what men mean when they talk about standards is crucial; women's expectations can be perfectly reasonable and rooted in their experiences and desires for meaningful connections.

If you spend time on the internet, as most of us do these days, you'll notice that there's a growing trend among women to consciously choose to remain single rather than waste their time on someone who doesn't deserve it. It's no surprise that some men are upset about this, given that research shows that heterosexual relationships benefit men more than women—they are happier, healthier, earn more money, and live longer lives than their bachelor counterparts.

On the other hand, studies show that unmarried and childless women are the happiest subpopulation in the UK. In other words, if you are a man, you should probably marry; if you are a woman, you should probably not.

The TikToker Made a Follow-Up Video Addressing the Comment
Men have fewer opportunities to secure romantic connections as a result of a cultural shift in which women are more assertive about their boundaries, desires, and needs than ever before. This is especially true for those who refuse to advance in dating and personal development and then become enraged when women, to put it simply, give up on them.

Some men have grandiose delusions, are self-centered, and believe they are superior to others, so they think they are the ones who set the standards and look down on certain people. Either way, it is absurd for one gender to blame the other for ending up single.
