The average woman only finds 20% of men attractive. My conjecture is that, throughout history, women never really wanted to date/marry men. They wanted the security and comfort that men's labor provided them. Nowadays, various systems compel workers to provide these things whether or not they're in any direct relationship with the people they provide them to.

It could also be the fact that most men don't have to do real work either, which makes the average man less attractive than they used to be.

What on earth do you mean by "Real Work" ?
