Why isn't there a FEMALE loneliness epidemic?
We have roughly the same number of men and women.

So do women just prefer to be alone rather than pick someone on par with them? How does it work?

women are generally happier alone than men are

also women aren't scaring away the bros by being really sexist
If you were in jail and you could either choose solitary confinement or share a cell with someone who doesn't care about themself or their appearance, has disgusting habits and lives and dresses like a slob, which would you choose.

That can be said about a lot of women as well. The vast majority of them have terrible fashion choice.

They either dress like total s****. There is a new trend around here where they don't wear pants/ skirts anymore. Just a slightly longer T shirt that barely covers their a**. I would be ashamed to walk on the street with someone like that.

Or they go for the "dude" look. Some random top and pants they found. Probably their brother's.

It is quite rare to see a woman who actually cares about how she looks.

Don't get me started on the layers of disgusting chemicals covering their faces so I can't even see how they look.

Most women are seemingly insane so get a cat and become known as the 'crazy cat lady' or similar eventually.

That is what I get from social media and popular Western culture anyhow.

Weird generalisation tbh

I think most people aren't like that, and the few that are make up maybe 5% of people regardless of sex. I don't think that you can exclusively blame selfishness and poor-hygiene for mass loneliness; that feels like a cop-out
No relationship is better than a bad relationship... or a boring relationship with a bad person... or a boring relationship with a boring person...

Generally being alone is the better of the options in a lot of cases.

Unfortunately agree with most of this, but not the "dude" look stuff and lower (save for excessive makeup, but I have my own views on how that alters self-perception and only has negative effects on psychology if it isn't for reconstructive/restorative purposes)

I think the irony speaks for itself if men chose to dress the way modern women do with clothes which show more skin than not, women would stare at them the same way men stare at women when they do it, but then claim that they don't want the attention while wearing attention-seeking clothes

If people want that sort of attention, go for it, but I feel that you should also have to wear the stigma/negative aspects associated without throwing a fit

I'd be happy if my partner liked loose-fitting clothing like me; mediums fit me well, but I wear LG or XL because I like the mobility and not feeling restrained. Same for pants, with the exception of well-fitting jeans which are elastic material for mobility. Otherwise it's cargo/combat pants. It's nice finding someone with the same style, because with girlfriends prior, we'd just swap hoodies when needed. I think most practical clothes are innately unisex, but the way fashion is going, it's like bikinis are going to be the norm by 2030

I'm all for body-positivity, but I don't understand how people don't understand that you're going to get looked at funny when I can see full labia in your 'shorts'

And this is why women don't suffer without you.

would guess it is pretty rough with all the dating apps and society positively validating them just for existing.

Normally guys get ignored or told they suck. At least from what I seen with a lot of guys.

People can hate me all they want for saying this but this is pretty accurate in America at the moment.

But you'll go insane from solitary confinement!

Oh wait...I guess its a catch 22 it will happen regardless. Yeah I guess i would also choose that. My brain would start to hallucinate stuff for me so it wouldn't be so bad
this is why the entire idea of a loneliness epidemic specific to men is complete and utter bullcrap, we are all suffering equally from a loneliness epidemic no matter what gender you are. Anyone trying to split it among gender lines is trying to distract you from what's really going on.

Karl Marx has called it "alienation" and it is a tool of the bourgeoisie to oppress the proletariat. If you are feeling disconnected from your work and generally hopeless, it makes it harder to organize a proletarian revolution. You can't exactly organize such a working class revolution if your society is made up of doomers that don't believe change is possible. The entire "nothing ever happens" meme is capitalist propaganda designed to sap your will to fight the system.

The problem isn't women, chads, or whatever else incels tell you it is, nor is it a hopeless fight. The problem is capitalism, and we must be united in our fight against it.

Well, hopefully you don't ever feel lonely, lots of people got a lot of love for you.
