Part 8/10:
A vivid scene involves a dating show or social experiment where women dismiss potential partners, citing a lack of attraction or chemistry. The critique here is that modern women aren’t genuinely interested in men but are instead playing power games—using dismissiveness ("bird hands") and condescension to control men’s responses.
The narrator emphasizes that men are tired of politeness and are increasingly responding with honesty or indifference, signaling a culture where traditional courtship behaviors are collapsing. Men are said to be no longer afraid to express their true feelings or reject women outright, feeling that societal courtesy has been abandoned by women who demand special treatment.
