Yeah, you're right. I wouldn't want to pass on something that actually worked to desperate people who are doing things that don't work. Let's keep up a culture of failure and not try proven techniques.

I don't think the quality of men have changed in the last fifty years. Why would today's generation, if they grew up fifty years ago, be any different from the men in your time, or the men 100, 1000, 10000 years ago? I know the best success I've had with women is when I stop thinking, rely on my gut, and make a move. I'm sure it's the same for every guy. But the truth is there has never been a world in which so many women make more money than men, and a lot of them, honestly, make money just for being women.
Army. The funniest thing is my unit has an absurd number of false accusations regarding SHARP/Equal Opportunity, so I have a first-hand look at the kind of insanity going on that may not even be imaginable to anyone who previously served.
It worked 50+ years ago with an entirely different generation. You know full well things have changed all over the place. And yet your advice is "Do it the way we did". I am not actually saying some of your advice doesn't have merit. I actually agree that women are attracted to manly-men. But you in no way acknowledge that the field has changed a bit since you were last out there. Many women now believe that manly traits are toxic (even while being attracted to it). So of course young men are confused and hesitant. I mean, we are talking about a modern culture that seriously has (had?) people talking about signing consent forms before a date.
Besides, this article isn't just about getting a date. It is about how some women seem to have changed their expectations of men. And how the changed status of women today (compared to 50 years ago) has also changed the dating dynamic.
I do apologize for being overly snarky. But I felt like your post was equally dismissive and thus responded the way I did.

You are a real sage, a font of wisdom.

Active duty, which branch?

The spectacle of a bunch of female senior NCOs of color filing EEO claims against each other must be witnessed to be believed.
Yeah that didn't happen in the 80's lol.
I spent three years in - airborne.
