> Average or subpar men are essentially invisible in the dating market as evidenced by declining rates of sex by most people

That sounds circumstantial at best and in no way definitive proof.

> Dating Apps are part of the reason that birth rates are generally dropping in first world countries

That definitely requires some study before being considered true.

> Women while away their younger years in careers and chasing after unrealistic men before settling at an older age and maybe having 1 kid.

I'm not sure how career factors into all of this; I don't want to strawman you, but your phrasing implies that you dissaprove of the trend. Then, is the implication of what you say that women should focus less on career and dating when they're young and instead focus on getting married early and having multiple children?

Separately, how is only having one child necessarily a bad thing?
