It is directly stated by the angry sad dudes as what they feel. See jon pop's entire post history as an example. It also seems uncontroversial that more men than women have no sex life at all but would like to, especially when the only rebuttal to it is that some women are lonely because they would rather not lower their standards. As much as talk of sexual market forces is tainted by creepy people it is true that men and women face different pressures and annoyances in the dating game, with different failure states. A guy with no game will experience no expression of romantic or sexual interest directed towards him, and if he takes this poorly he starts freaking out about all women being whores who only want 'chads' and maybe does the 'man going his own way' thing. A woman with no game will not have romantic or sexual interest directed at her from the people she would like or in the manner she would like, and if she takes it poorly she starts complaining about all men being lovely partners who only want sex and maybe does the 'political lesbian' thing.

People who experience the lovely end of the dating spectrum tend to envy the experience of the other gender, so you get lonely dudes who have never had someone so much as look their way who are pissed at women complaining about too much attention, while you get women who are constantly hounded by crappy dudes who are pissed at men for complaining that they have it hard in dating.

If there's one cosmic truth social media has taught me, it's that 90% of the world's meltdown prone nice guys (and gals) work as stand up comedians. This reminded me of how any time a comedian says a stupid joke on Twitter or whatever it just takes like one person saying the joke sucks and they have a multi hour meltdown. It's amazing to see unfold and it always comes from ones with reputations of "You...you're all too weak to take a joke!!! Grow thicker skin! The sacred right of humor has been ruined by MilllllLLLEEENNNIIIAAAALLLSSSS (the person is invariably like 31 also)!!!!!"
