Thanks for the responses. I will also say that women in German culture fall under Anglosphere influence. This is because after WWII it came very much under the boot of the USA. Economically and militarily (since they had an 'occupied zone' and still own bases there) but especially culturally and socially.
Look at German woman's birth rate: 1,3% (2,1% is required for any population to sustain itself). For more information on Germany, see these two articles:

I think this one really hits the nail on the head:
"The influence of Protestantism has had an impact on the entire German society: this religion preaches a principle based on authenticity facing interiority. In this spirit, only true feelings are respectable and respected whereas playing and simulating deserve condemnation.
Historically, feminist movements as well as the communist regime contributed to this tendency. During WWII, many men lost their lives at the front and the trauma was deeply imprinted on German society. A demographic excess of women in the population feminized the German society, both sociologically and culturally."
Bottom line: we nowadays have a culture highly influenced by feminism and narcissism. It is very difficult to find a long term authentic relationship. This is part of the social atomization of our culture (for this I refer to
Atomised by Michel Houellebecq, excellent novel which any would be PUA or Redpiller should read).
