[serpico]

I've come to the conclusion all this 'x is done now' stuff is missing the point. It's the likes of Tinder that have changed the game. Back before it became the norm, if a women wanted to get some sex with someone outside her circle, she'd go to a bar or club and wait to be approached. The very small amount of guys that regularly approach with any modicum of competence had somewhat of a captive market, thus could punch above their weight because the relative lack of other guys he's in direct competition with on a given night. Now if even a relatively attractive girl wants to meet guys she just has to turn her phone on, and she has a whole raft of suitors to choose from. She now has a far more options on any given night, and in aesthetic terms can now find more of an 'equal match' online. The other factors like local populations getting jaded, game being more prevalent etc are valid, but i'd wager far, far less than Tinder and similar dating apps and sites...
