I agree with you. Men with no hope of finding a mate do not rise to their best, and often degenerate into hoodlums. It's how nature (and hormones) work. But the women are losing hope too. I knew several beautiful Chinese ladies in my time in China who despaired of ever finding a man. As a group they are labeled "leftover women." The thing is, if they could overcome their instinctive hypergamy and simply glance downward, they would see millions of men who would be happy to take them. Again, nature at work.
