A portmanteau of "hype" and "inflation."

Despite the skeptics dismissing the surging value of the newly launched tech startup as mere hypeflation, the company continues to attract a sizable amount of venture capital funding.

Hypeflation 

Describing the tendency of people to overestimate a piece of media that they are very excited about, starting something of a domino chain that ends up “inflating” the media’s perceived quality.

To “adjust for hypeflation” would be to regard recommendations of a piece of media from people who are caught up in hype as if they are slightly less positive than they actually are.

“Dude, I was really disappointed by Chainsaw Man. It didn’t match my expectations at all.”
“That makes sense. It’s a really good story, but you definitely should’ve adjusted for hypeflation when that dude told you it was the best thing ever written.”

Hoeflation 

Hoeflation is a term which describes the increase in price men have to pay for lower value women. This is reflected through higher prices in terms of, having to spend more $ on women, having to have a certain personality, physique, etc. Women have lost all their value as they have sex with everyone, can't cook and don't know how to be good wives.

Hoeflation 

Hoeflation is a derogatory portmanteau of "whore" and "inflation", used to refer to the unfair Pareto Distribution principle (80/20 rule) that has appeared in dating culture due to the advent of internet dating (such as Tinder). It essentially affirms that the dating market tends to be rigged in favor of women. The top 80% of women only really go after the top 20% of men (female hypergamy), whereas a few decades ago, typically women would find men on their level as opposed to men way above their level. Women only date upwards now, and by a lot. The average man nowadays needs to work several times (~5x) harder than his grandfather (finances, bodybuilding, career etc.) to attract women who are several times (~7x) in lower quality (inferior) to his grandmother (less attractive, abhorrent personality) etc. Lets do a quick inflation formula with the 5 and the 7. Real Inflation Rate = ((New Price - Old Price) / (Old Price x Quality Factor)) x 100 so we get Real Inflation Rate = ((50 - 10) / (10 x 7)) x 100 which is a 571% real inflation rate (rate of Hoeflation in this case) that men must bear the cost of. Now lets look at some more math. According to Kanye West, one good girl is worth a thousand bitches while Lil Wayne says that bitches come a dime a dozen. So one good girl is worth $8.33, so a bitch is $0.00833 (these are all in USD).

Friend 1: Dude, I make a ton of money, I'm fit, I have a decent career and house. A girl rejected me on Tinder because im only 5'11" tall. She wants a 6'0" man.

Friend 2: What the heck? Thats crazy, sounds like Hoeflation on Tinder to me. Ouch.

Hoeflation 

Hoeflation is the result of two words put together. Hoe and inflation.

It is a slang which basicly means that it is the variation in the amount of money a man would have to spend on himself and on dates in order to meet the superficial requirements which "HOES" find attractive.

Since meeting girls or women that fit the carachteristics of a "hoe" are usually shallow and superficial, to invest in yourself in order to satisfy those requirements is in true an awful way to spend your money.

Average Joe : Why can't I find a nice girl to share a life together, to be my wife, to have a family and to raise kids? I’m getting tired of this dating life.

Wiseman : I see you all fit and groomed, dating girls from dating apps and in the end you are always complaining about anxiety and loneliness. Using your vocabulary I would say that HOEFLATION is too high nowadays. Women tend be much more selective than men on dates and nowadays with the help of dating apps, the options for women are virtually endless. So, in order to stand out between so many options, men are spending much more money in looks and material things in order to get the hoes attention.

Average Joe : So, what should I do?

Wiseman : Uninstall any dating apps completely, invest in knowledge and in your health. Be aware of life around you. Knowledge raises perception. Be interesting. The price of HOES may be very high nowadays but real women are PRICELESS and also YOU.
