Meaning, just make a complete doormat of myself. Go on as many dates as possible, buy women as many things as possible, just keep giving and giving more and more.

And maybe one day, some woman who no one likes will decide to give me a go, as a last ditch resort, and I'll get lucky for a night or two before she dumps me for someone with higher status.

But of course I must not have enough "self esteem" to do all that.

Oh I have all the choice in the world.

I mean, I can literally CHOOSE who will reject me.

I can approach any woman anywhere and get a rejection within 5 minutes.

That's wonderful.

And the internet makes it even easier, because now, I don't even have to know of the rejection.

I can just send off 100 messages to 100 women and get 0 responses after 5 days, and just assume that I was rejected.

Technology makes life so much easier!

You are deliberately misinterpreting to get some pity and avoid the hard work of changing what you can control. Life is not black or white. Women do have very similar problems to men. With your attitude you'll just filter out the people that will treat you like shit (because you expect them to treat you that way).
