CHELSEA Handler has taken aim at modern dating culture, claiming men today just can’t commit.
On the Howie Mandel Does Stuff podcast, the comedian argued that dating apps and endless options have made men lazy and unwilling to settle down.
“It’s very hard in today’s world to meet straight guys that have their s— together … Something’s wrong. I don’t know what’s wrong,” Handler said bluntly.
She initially hoped to help women find quality men but soon realised the problem is widespread, with many successful women hitting the same dead end.
“With dating apps and social media, there’s just so much abundance and so much choice that nobody really feels like they have to … lock it in,” she explained.
Handler criticised swipe culture, saying men can flick through 50 women a day without putting in the effort that dating once demanded.
She praised the ambitious women she knows, describing them as “bada—-” who struggle to find decent partners.
Handler also revealed she’s embracing casual dating on her own terms, admitting, “I wouldn’t say I’m in a relationship.
I would say I’m dabbling in different areas of my life.
I don’t like to be tethered to one person.” Her comments come years after her split from comedian Jo Koy, whom she dated for less than a year.
Handler once said Koy restored her “faith in men, in love [and] in being 100% who I am,” but later realised “this was not my person.”
