Well, it’s statistically impossible to flip a coin many times over and never get tails. This isn’t about women being coins, more so the probabilistic event of a men getting a girlfriend and a coin flip can be modeling the same (trial). Therefore, as the population size increases, he would atleast get 1 success so the original point is still correct
yeah you're missing the entire point of what i said. a coin flip is 50/50 & does not model the probabilistic event of a man getting a girlfriend, which is not 50/50 and is based on many factors, including where the man lives, what women and in which contexts he's approaching, his personality, physical appearance, financial situation, the men he's in competition with, etc.
even if we assume that more women would give him a better chance at a girlfriend (which i already think is a faulty assumption) saying that less abortions = higher success rate for man getting girlfriend is ignoring the fact that not all abortions would have been female babies. some would have been male, and those men would have been competition, which would cancel out whatever increase in chances he thinks he would have had anyways. in conclusion, u don't understand statistics lmao
That’s were your wrong persay, you’re correct that the chance of getting a girlfriend doesn’t have the same probability of success as a coin flip (50,50) BUT they are both Bernoulli independent random variables. I was moreso explaining a common result in probability, the coin flip is an analogy to use for people who do not have knowledge about. In short, the probability of the sum of n Bernoulli iid having success probability p in [0,1] random variables being 0 as n goes to infinity is 0
second, coin flips are independent variables. getting heads on one flip does not affect what the next flip will be. dating (or for this model, whether women are willing to date this guy) is dependent on things that change with respect to previous outcomes. the ratio of men and women stay the same. the variables influencing the outcomes are not meaningfully affected by there being more or less people, except maybe in the case of an extremely insular community.
N does not go to infinity correct but this analysis is used in stats classes for why adding more samples to datasets lets certain lemmas and theorems hold. And I mean the whole point was his chances not increased but I just proved to you that they did increase under HDB/WLLN sooooo yeah….
if you have a bag of marbles, 5 white and 5 black, and you add 5 white and 5 black marbles to it, your chances of getting either marble do not change because the ratio stays the same. explain to me how some random ass guy is more likely to get a girlfriend because of there being more people when the increase in people is not along gender lines
because n is not increasing. if n is the number of women this guy will talk to in his lifetime before finding a girlfriend, there are already more women than would be possible for him to talk to. there being more people IN THE WORLD does not change the number of women ANY RANDOM MAN has access to
lets say the maximum women he could talk to in his lifetime is 100, before he will die. if the number of women in the world was 10,000, and you added 1000 more, his chances do not increase because the number of women increased, because his chances are not based on the overall number of women but instead based on the number of women he has the ability to talk to in his lifetime, which is already beyond saturated by the number of women alive
his max wouldn't be 100, the same way that the world woman population isn't 10,000. i made up small numbers for my demonstration. but he has a finite number of women he is able to talk to in his lifetime, by virtue of being a human who is going to die. are you actually unable to comprehend that
i'm saying that whether there is one extra person in the entire dating pool of his general area does not meaningfully impact his chances of finding a girlfriend because he has almost certainly not exhausted the people already within his dating pool unless he lives in a very sparsely populated area
like please take this claim to its logical conclusion, if you're saying this guy would be more likely to find a gf if there were more people, you're also saying that would be the case for any man. if thats the case for any man, and men are also increasing becsuse of not having been aborted, it cancels out
thanks for answering another question i didn't ask, yeah i gathered that k/100 is the percent, please explain to me in what way that percent would stay the same as your town population increases. if you have 10 friends in a class of 20 people and then 30 more people join the class, that doesn't automatically mean you're friends with another 15 people. do you get me?
for a classroom setting this may be correct but if you are in a medium to large size town, you are not necessarily having more encounters just because there are more people. you are very likely at the "saturation point" so to speak unless you are in a very small area that suddenly has an influx of new people
