Not if he's a super charming S.O.B. with a firm handle of female psychology who understands that it's primarily a woman's mind he must appeal to, not her eyes.

How many times do I have to say that I did not say that? I did say, however, that women hit their primes at 25, and from there the inevitable decline to sexual irrelevance begins.



And for men that age comes much, much later.



We learn to appreciate other aspects of a person beyond what's on the outside. It's the attraction that causes us to want to learn more about that person in the first place.



Men would love to sleep with young women, sure.

Women would rather sleep with a 41-year old Harold Ford, Jr. or a 43-year old Corey Booker than their 24-year old male staff members.



Right.
At what point do you believe you became some sort of authority on attraction and relationships?
I would like to see your research and publications for those nights I have trouble going to sleep.

Are you trying to tell us something here?

Michael Jackson was a pedophile

Men are attracted to lots of things, stop trying to demean them by making out they are as shallow as a puddle.

The moment I saw a young, 23-year old and said, "Whoa!"

And the moment I saw a 29-year old and said, "Man, she fell off."

Here's all the evidence you need. What this ABC special fails to mention is that most of these women are well into their 30s and thus well past their primes. If they were 24 or 25, men would be more likely to commit to them. But at their age, their prospects have decreased significantly. It would be like having a panel of 5'2 men complaining about their love lives.

Generally speaking, men who are short and broke won’t look as attractive to women.

Women who are pass their prime (older, obese, etc.) won’t look as attractive to men.

What is so difficult to grasp?

Well that would explain it.
I hope you realize that your emotions do not qualify as an authority or have any bearing on the rest of humanity. Of course you dont.

And an ABC interview on the percentage of unmarried black women on youtube is not research or a publication.

But go ahead and live in your world. Im sure you will be happy there.

Why must you qualify being older (over 26) or fat with being past ones prime. Why not just old or fat women wont look as attractive to men?

Some of us do, but, for a typical American woman with, from a profile view, her belly protruding more than her chest, and a butt as wide as Texas, she cannot throw stones. Can't go to the wine expo, as when I see that, I projectile vomit. (Reason #4,271 I won't go into a Wal-Mart either.)
I may not be the handsome prince that gets sleeping beauty, at my age, but I can get the lookers that are only half my age (well, rule of thumb is: Age = (my age)/2 + 9 years. )

BTW, a pallet is a wooden/plastic structure that you stack items on, and a palate is the roof of your mouth, which often helps extend the aroma/flavor of a decent wine (come on over, I show you the cellar).
And palette has about 5 or so meanings, but let's stick with a painting board. Stop going to the Boston wine expo.

Don’t ask me, ask all the beauty pageants and their participants, bikini models, fashion models, etc. who normally show women in their early 20s not those pass their prime, have children, etc.
