What do you mean by the bolded part?

What do you think is stopping you talking to women? 

Is it a lack of self confidence? Afraid of rejection? 

I may be ill informed but dating seems to have physical expectations that I'm not interested in meeting. As I've mentioned here, I'm a virgin and that's totally fine by me. If it wasn't, there are plenty of ways for me to have rectified the situation. But dating is tough in the western world unless you're religious and seem to get married at any early age or don't seem to have any hang ups about physical relationships. 

 

Let me get something clear. Socially I'm a very personable individual. I'm funny, decent looking, in decent shape, well dressed, well spoken, and not awkward.  I make friends really really easily and most of my friends growing up were female and I still feel more comfortable around women than men. But being of low self esteem and having my insecurities constantly reinforced through rejection in a multitude of forms constantly has me questioning my worth to anyone. 

 

But even while I push through all that and try (I've been on a multitude of dating services for nearly 2 years now) I'm faced with no reciprocating interest from anyone. It doesn't exactly bode well for my esteem when you get no matches on 4 different services over the span of more than a year. Forget fear of rejection. I'm not even given the opportunity to be rejected. 

It doesnt make sense man, sounds like you would be fine with women!

Maybe it is how you present yourself on your dating profile? Also what age are you? As you get into your mid 20's it becomes easier to get women as they don't hold on to the childish notions they had in high school like "Buff dude with loads of money etc"
