The YouTube video you provided, titled "Why dating is so competitive nowadays?" by the channel kelcat_X, is a stream that discusses the difficulties and changes in the modern dating landscape, primarily from the perspective of the "average man."
Here is a summary of the main points from the video's discussion:
Dating is More Competitive: The speaker argues that dating has become much more competitive for the average man, claiming that the key issue is that women now have "a whole lot of options" [01:02].
The Impact of Dating Apps and Social Media: The speaker repeatedly blames dating apps (such as Tinder and Bumble) and social media for "fucking up" dating for the average man [02:28]. He claims these platforms gave women more options, making them "more picky" [02:02].
The Problem of "Ghosting": He states that the term "ghosting" (when someone suddenly disappears after dating or hooking up) became common and intense after the rise of the iPhone and dating apps [06:45], [14:58]. He recounts his own experience of being ghosted [06:23].
Focus on the "Bag" (Wealth/Success): The speaker repeatedly emphasizes that for an average man to succeed in dating, he must "get the bag" (become wealthy or successful) [07:18], [10:57]. He suggests that men "with the bag" are "immune" to the downsides of dating apps [11:02] and are considered "high value" [12:08].
Short-term vs. Long-term: The speaker mentions that while dating apps can sometimes lead to casual encounters, they are not effective for finding long-term commitment or relationships [05:56], [23:41].
A "Seesaw Effect": He concludes by saying that while technology like dating apps was created for convenience, it has a downside—a "seesaw effect"—that makes finding a mate much harder for some men [17:15].
