That's fine but feel free to explain how hooking up has changed. I mean, you are the self professed stud. Educate me if you think I have it wrong.

I dunno about 1996 but I know what's it like to be adult and single both pre and post the beginning of widespread internet dating (I was single early to mid 2000s when it wasn't anywhere near as popular, and a hell of a lot of people looked down on it).
It is a complete revolution. You used to have to meet women in person. A lot of the time if you were only average looking, you couldn't even get to the conversation stage.
Now you have a passage into that conversation without seeing each other physically.
You still won't get laid of you're a hunchback freak or something, but for Mr Average who knows how to talk to people, it's amazing the difference it's made.
Also women are much more open and speak more freely, as they can never feel unsafe around a stranger online.
The other good thing is it's one on one. Picking up in pub or club nearly always involves a girl doing so in front of her friends. And for that she'll always feel judged by them, either positively or negatively. None of that when it's just the two of you.
Really when it comes to women, I think it changes a lot of attitudes to talking to a guy from "Why?" to "Why not?". So easy to back off if it's not for them.

Not buying. Although I do agree internet dating makes it so much easier.
You're at an age where a much larger pool of girls are sexually active and not so caught up in the "I don't want to feel ashamed" garbage. You'd also be more experienced and knowledgable about how to position yourself and then close the deal.
Hooking up experience doesn't peak in your teens.....it typically peaks at right where you're at right now.

All things being equal (i.e. if you had same access to social media back then) you'd be getting more sex now.

People are different now than they were even 10 years ago. If you disagree with this premise, fine, but that is my perception.
Hooking up has changed because i can organise someone as a **** buddy, without having met them. I can speak to someone, without having met them.
Do i need to explain internet dating to you?
I dont go out to meet random drunk slurries anymore. I can meet nice women and not go anywhere near a pub. I can waste less time on dead ends and find out which women find me attractive and which ones dont, without wasting bulk cash on watered down drinks and shit designer clothes and dealing with drunk dickheads. All this while im taking a dump at work.

I've never said any different. In fact I stated this stuff in my opinion piece and you told me I was clueless.
Here you are with your straw arguments again. Trying to infer I have said stuff that I didn't.
Exactly what I said and you howled it down.
You can have all the sex you like but there's no price for being that big a dumb arse.

I disagree, and now you are claiming to know me better than myself?
I was much better looking when i was a teen because i played a lot of sport, i had hundreds of friends across several circles, was in top few % at school and was a nicer, less selfish person. All pre-facebook too. So no "proof".
Dont try and tell me any different. Anyone that knew me then would tell you the same.

My line has been consisted and not changed. You're just being a hero and arguing for argument's sake. From what I can see you agree with me but insist on arguing. Backs up my impression of you that you are a massive knob.
We think the same things just I think it on a different level you. You think on the surface and think on the mechanics. I think conceptually so if the surface mechanics change, I can reapply. This is just the difference in our education levels.
Everything you have claimed, I have said in my post BEFORE you claimed them. Just on a conceptual level.
If you want to play the hero and keep arguing for no good reason then go for your life.....

This made me laugh. There must be some kind of recognisable truth in it "mechanically".
You sound like one of those younee grads who treats a community college kid like a moron just because of a piece of paper.
Give it a rest. In this country, in this market, it is not a stupid decision to drop out of a degree and become a tradie.
Surely you've seen some figures.
And its not like i dont have opportunities to walk into a work sponsored degree in engineering or whatever its called derp.
Im done here. Im going on a self date to play ps4 online with a **** friend funnily enough. Or is that not a self date?
You stay classy thread.

About time. All you have done is argued with someone you agree with.
