Am I pretty much doomed?

Unfortunately, misandrists and those indoctrinated with misandrist ideas seem to make up a huge chunk of the online feminist community. And it is scary because many of their ideas are becoming accepted by the mainstream.

Here is an example. The other day I saw this post shared on facebook by a feminist author, which was basically a message to men telling them to not bug women who for example are at a bus stop and have their headphones in and obviously are not looking to be approached. Of course I agree with this. But many in the comments section were taking even further and suggesting men should not approach women PERIOD. And one exchange in particular made my blood boil. This one girl commented saying she thinks people are being too hard on men and not all of them are creeps. She suggested some guys maybe just want someone to talk to and that she would be glad to talk to a guy like that. The feminists on there basically ripped her apart. They accused her of "enabling rape culture" and things of the sort. And all because she advocated being nice to men. One commenter replied to her suggestion that a guy just wants someone to talk to with "then he should find a MALE to talk to". This mentality is so disgusting, it reminds me of religious extremists who think that men and women should not interact. Basically these people believe that it is perverted for men to be attracted to women they don't know. If this mentality becomes mainstream then guys like me are screwed in terms of dating.

I don't think you should 'settle', not only for you, but how awful for another person to be the one who is considered 'settling'. It would be denying them a chance to find the right person for them.
