Imagine if a woman were to complain on and on (and on and on) that no man seems to be interested in her, that men get attracted to “alpha women” who are more beautiful, intelligent, articulate, and accomplished. She mutters darkly how men have become depraved and how western civilization is falling because men ogle those “alpha women”. She points out how all those “alpha women” have lots of boyfriends while women who aren’t as good looking get ignored. What she doesn’t realize is that her negativity drives men away. Yet, if she took a positive attitude, more men would take an interest in her – and not just the occasional charming drunkard with no self-respect, but “alpha men”.

You see, she could talk all she likes about how women should stick together or how women should all play by the rules to ensure that each woman gets a good man. It won’t make any difference. All is fair in love and war.
