  This is what wars are for. Young men slaughter each other while old men bang the young women.

    I thought wars were for oil?

      Wars seem to predate oil by … a few thousand years.

  You’re not wrong, but I would call out a point of clarity, that youth is far more fetishized for women.

  I’m a dude, but as far as I can tell, guys need a bit of luck in the looks category (not the most important thing, but not looking disfigured generally helps), ambition, and success (mainly money). I had terrible luck with women. I’m not the best looking guy out there but I’m certainly not the worst either… And I could find relationships, but it always quickly fell apart. Once I decided to improve upon myself, and go to college in the pursuit of a well paying job, I found that my ambition was generally enough to keep people’s attention, romantically.
