Beware of the college grad cad!
Men with college degrees have become so cocky that they’re ruining romance for their female counterparts, one “leading expert” alleges.
Just 40.5% of college students in the United States are male, according to the National Student Clearinghouse, meaning they’re in short supply and high demand when dating on campus.
A lack of competition has led these men to develop “golden penis syndrome” — an arrogance that stems from the assumption that a steady supply of females will be sexually interested in them.
“Golden penis syndrome” has led these smug males to engage in dastardly dating practices, such as cheating and ghosting, because they’re confident that another woman will always be waiting around the corner.
The term was purportedly coined by frustrated female students at Sarah Lawrence College in upstate New York — where three-quarters of all enrollees are the fairer sex.
Journalist Jon Birger believes many college-educated men in their 20s, 30s and 40s have also developed GPS because they’re similarly in high demand when it comes to dating.
“The sex ratios among college-educated, hetero singles in Manhattan is approximately three women for every two men. I’ve interviewed a lot of men who were continuing to take advantage of that imbalance,” Birger told Mel Magazine.
“[And] 1981 was the last time that four-year colleges in the US graduated more men than women. Ever since, women have been leaving men in the educational dust.”
Birger — who penned the best-selling book “Date-onomics: How Dating Became a Lopsided Numbers Game” — further explained to the Daily Mail: “We’re seeing a generation of young men who think they’re Adam Driver or Michael B. Jordan. Of course, it’s not about them. It’s the ratio.”
He continued: “When men are in undersupply, the dating culture becomes less monogamous — men are more likely to treat women as sex objects and treat relationships as disposable.”
Not only are men with “golden penis syndrome” more likely to treat their dates badly, they may also be less inclined to put effort into their physical appearance and their sexual performances.
Birger previously spoke with The Post, declaring that dating was particularly dire for heterosexual women in New York.

College-educated women are more likely to date among their own milieu of college-educated men, but as their numbers are so skewed, they’re in for a rougher time.
Birger told The Post that the imbalance is also exacerbated by New York’s large population of gay males. Some 9 to 12 percent of men in Manhattan are gay, according to Gary Gates, a demographics expert at UCLA’s Williams Institute.
But Birger had some trusty advice for female singletons seeking to settle down: Be cautious of the college-grad cads.
“I would be wary of guys who have remained never-married into their late 30s and 40s,” he explained to Daily Mail. “Especially the better-looking ones with good jobs. These men are having too much fun playing the field.”
He also advises women to be assertive when pursing romance, stating: “Fact is, men like women who like them. Also, a man is much less likely to take advantage of a woman who puts herself out there.”
