Im not sure given the information from (my non - American) environment.

1.) I sometimes talk with young woman about this topic. A few mentioned who are ambitious and do wish having kids start to think about getting a house man as a father. Also when I mentioned this studies some women complain that man prefer women with lower earnings... We know that prestige, earning much etc. is a big thing in US. These observations should be checked and I think, only one mentioned study did it.

2.) The explanation with video games is very narrow. We know, that school teachers in high developed countries tend to prefer girls.

3.) Well I see myself as counter example. Though high educated I do have a lack of money as a long term CS student (well, a thing in Germany :D ) Though I have "manly" hobbies (sailing, techno clubbing, networking in mainly manly enviroments) it is not I have lack of interested women. Maybe, because I dont live in America.



Also incels movement are a thing and they cant be explained with the given text.
