Do you believe in the 80/20 rule when it comes to sex/relationship?

The 80/20 states that in any social environment, the majority of men getting lots of sex is only 20% and from this collective of men, 80% of women are chasing after these men. This rule applies to when women are young and attractive but tends to even out more as men and women get older.

So for example in a university setting, you'll find that many men are left sexless or with very low numbers. While 80% of women are chasing after the top 20% of men at the university for sex/relationship; some even being content with being a friends with benefit in the hope that it blossoms into a relationship.

This results in these type of men to have high sexual partner count just from their time in university and usually they are either very athletic (think athlete), rich, good looking, or have high social status (popularity - e. g. well known fraternity).

The remaining 20% of women are available for the 80% of men to fight over which causes a drought on the men side for relationship/sex.


[If you go to 2:30 mark this, Susan Walsh, who is a relationship expert explains that this behaviour is true among young women today and goes into detail as to why it's preventing them from finding a relationship.]

Also, when we think about how many girls today complain about men not committing or how guys only want sex on social media, and correlate back to this, it makes sense. It's because the vast majority are going after the same type of guys who have abundance of women to choose from.

  • Yes I agree

  • I can see why people would believe in it, I am not sure whether to disbelieve or believe it myself however.

  • Yes. Studies show it's true

  • yes, this is how it works in general. Ofcourse every woman of the 80% group gets a partner but that's not likely the one she wanted. ( a 25% chance). So when the disneyglamourdust settles, trouble is on the horizon for the majority of woman. Most of them use their brain to make their secondbest choice seem like a good one as they realise they are not perfect too. But that is artificial and not animal bounding from your lizard brain. And when you find someone who you can live your life, be smart and do not cage your lizard bur be honest.

  • Lol , so many sexual questions...
    Reminds me of orkut :/

  • yes i believe in it.. there are so much loser in this world who are sing and had just 1 girlfriend in 20 years... nobody wants them.. just the guys who everybody finds interessant are interessant for me

  • It wouldn't make sense mathematically, it's just pua rubbish propaganda tbh.

    BUT I do agree that sadly even sweet women follow peer pressure and essentially punish guys for good behavior. I mean genuinely good chaps, who are actually genuinely confident and nice people (think you're bonds, your tony starks, bruce waynes etc).

    That makes no sense. To act more slutty/looser around the less sophisticated and tool guy complimenting every woman rather than tailoring it to each is insane.

    I think with sane girls, then no, only the most attractive genuinely good guys (not the jerks or so called alphas who are fakes) will get them. But it would be the same number of girls as mathematically it's impossible for relationships to happen without 2 people lol.

    • Can u explain how it wouldn't make much sense mathematically?

  • I certainly buy the 80/20 rule or something similar which would suggest that a smallish portion of guys has a largish portion of sex. However, I think the article goes off the tracks in a couple of areas. First off I don't believe that 80% of the girls are "chasing" 20% of the guys. I think most of those 20% of guys are out there actively soliciting the girls, getting rejected a TON and getting laid their fair share as well. Because it's a numbers game. Meanwhile the 80% of nice guys (and I've been one for a VERY long time) aren't doing a good job of marketing themselves. They're not meeting new people, they're not approaching girls they're attracted to, they're not making their intentions plain and they're (surprise! surprise!) not having much success except when they might occasionally, literally, "get lucky." So for the guys at least, the answer is to "man up" take ownership for your dating outcomes and start getting out there and facing the rejection JUST LIKE THOSE GUYS YOU'RE CALLING DOUCHES DO EVERY FUCKING DAY! You only THINK they're gods of dating, because at the end of a night out, no one reminisces about the 30 girls who shot you down. They all remember the hot girl with DDs who went home with them and fucked like a wild animal the rest of the night, and again the next morning.

  • Women have a much bigger "No Go zone" compared to men. Most men will fuck any girl that looks average or even below average

  • As who never had any girl interested in him even the slightest, I gotta say, this is true. I know guys who get lots of girls, yet I will die without ever knowing what a woman's lips feel like

  • no, the theory is made by cucks who would like their women to get laid with other men. its bullshit.

  • yes it's 100% true. I didn't wanted to anon for this but I know all the girls would like to prove me wrong with their shaming tactics along with their stupid mangina guys (who hope that they will get laid if they agree with a women everytime😂).

  • Yes.
