I don’t think they need to be shown any particular courtesy since they closed by bashing ‘many many many girls’ as superficial.

“My experience as a man dating has been many many girls are superficial” is in fact bashing many many girls… the ones who are superficial? If a woman said “many many men are superficial” I would say “correct. Sorry you had to deal with people like that.” Not “stop bashing men” when the men they’re talking about are the same people I would complain about!!!

To quote (emphasis mine):
“I discovered that no one is looking for a meaningful connection or a serious conversation. Everyone wants to catered and be heard, no one wants to listen for just a second.”
In no way does the first part of the post make it sound like the commenter is qualifying the statement to only the subset of people they have dated.
I’m happily married, and I know people I would enjoy spending time with if I wasn’t. The world doesn’t seem bereft of thoughtful, intelligent, generous people to me. To me, it sounds like it’s a problem with the commenter.
