They seem to be a small group. There a literally zero hot dudes in this town.

I've been hearing people winge about dating in Vancouver for 20 years. There are articles written about Vancouver's shitty dating scene. It's never going change. Your best option is to leave Vancouver and move to a country where people are extraverted, passionate and more fun. Vancouver is a facade, get that through your think heads people.

Good money that you have misery sessions with your friends and complain that "there's no men in Vancouver"

Get therapy man.

You sound the way men who sound disappointed that women aren't hot and easy. If men get this from too much porn, women with similar gripes get this from too many rom-coms. Impossible standards.
Stop watching junk.

Why should men have to lower their standards when women expect them to own a house a car and be 6’3? Who are you kidding? Men have standards too... but I think the OP is a woman.

If you are over 25 and haven't got a ring from the hunk of your dreams, you never will. You have three options: 1. Move somewhere where the men are magically much more attractive but somehow single. 2. Lower your physical standards a tad. 3. Come to terms with the fact that you will never meet anyone who comes close to what you want, quit dating and develop the skills you will need to live alone for the rest of your life.

Or has a brain injury.

You're probably correct.
