16.7 percent of men and 24.2 percent of women have been ghosts at some point in their lives.

This statistic is highly misleading. Sure, 16.7 of men have pulled this as some point -- you can pretty much guess that the men who do this are players, who have several girls going at the same time...not guys who are dating women, like your average guy, who follows socially acceptable dating rules.

However, you can bet more than 24.2 percent of women have done this and the ones who 24.2% that will admit to it, have done it so often that their hamster simply can't produce enough exceptions to justify lying when surveyed.

You can get that on a per incident rate, women are easily responsible for at least 80% of the cases where texts go completely unanswered.

We know for a fact that 80% of guys out there are going to leap into action any time a women under 250LB texts him.

We also know that modern women are incapable of dealing with feeling uncomfortable for even two seconds and therefore it's likely that 100% of all women who have every been approached by at least one man and then decided to share their phone number....have at some point simply pretended that they didn't notice the incoming texts.

Somehow this will be reframed so that the women are the victims.

it already has, there has been a follow up article of reader submitted "ghosting horror stories", mostly made up woman complaining about how their boyfriends went away.

That's not what Vaun meant, I don't think. The article makes it seem like the women who ghost and flake the men are still the victims. Like the poor women don't want to act like this but they are forced to because of patriarchy or social pressure or global warming or panda bears.

haha that too! Either way, poooooooor me

It doesn't matter who does the ghosting. Whether it's the man or the woman, the woman is the victim.
