It’s not controversial. If it would be it would get both agreement and disagreement votes. It’s rather low quality. Part of what makes a LessWrong post high quality is epistemic legibility. That would mean that you not only give your opinions but explain the evidence you have for your opinions.
Apart of that the idea that XX looking for a long term relationship should orient themselves around what’s necessary instead of orienting themselves around increasing the likelihood of finding a partner that has the attributes the want seems flawed and like you haven’t spoken with XX who have trouble finding a desireable partner.
You know, one can find a desirable partner after having had trouble finding one. Just finding a parter is not very hard as XX. Please think more carefully about what has (and hasn’t) been said before strawmanning.
I assume that the kind of partners people are seeking are partners that are desirable for them. That assumption seems at least apply to most people with whom I have spoken about finding a partner.
But even if you have evidence from one step of “one person acquired one partner by doing XY” that’s not very robust for making general claims about which strategies on average provide returns.

The post originally had several positive karma then got downvoted. The need for “epistemic legibility” is noted.
Haven’t spoken with? Who said I’m not in this category lol
If you had trouble finding a partner, having certainty that it’s just a matter of doing simple step A and B would not be warranted.
