Gotta remember selection bias. The single women are (eternally) on the dating market because of their horrible views, the ones who aren't horrible are not on the dating market anymore or only very very short.

    Wouldn’t that argument work the same way for men? To be clear, I’m not a fan of that argument for any gender. But fair is fair.

    I’m polyam, so my experiences are quite different. I’m finding more married people looking for a third, which is awkward when I’m more of a “relationship anarchist” and don’t want to put my partners into tiers above/below each other (or be put into such tiers myself.)

    You're absolutely right on that. Some people really just want the freedom for themselves, but not for their partners. Which is ridiculous. After all, "What's good for the goose is good for the gander." If someone hasn't got the maturity it takes for polyamory, then they're not ready for it.
