You both act like there is something wrong with a man wanting to have a partner who cooks and cleans. A man in his 40s and 50s needs a reason to commit to a woman. They aren't slaves to their sex drive anymore and they have friends and family. You have to enhance his life in some way; merely being female isn't enough. So what does a woman have to offer one of these guys? A nurturing home environment is one thing for sure. I am sure there are others, and perhaps guys of this age group will chime in. "Witty repartee" and talks about successes at work surely aren't one of them.
(As for younger guys seeking a "mommy" replacement figure, perhaps they are actually seeking a woman who they think is wife material. Nothing wrong with that.)
What does he have to offer her if she is financially independent? Only a woman who is scared to be alone or can't pay her own bills goes for a deal like that. I work with women in their 30s and up who make good money and they are single or only have fwb. Why is that? Because the men they meet expect a domestic goddess who will also pay the bills. They rather be alone because it's easier than going home after work to some man sitting in a dirty house..mouth open like a baby bird.

All I'm looking for is companionship, someone to share my life - and a few other things - with... I do the cooking and cleaning... I did it even when I was married... so she doesn't have to worry about any of that.
I'm in that age range, and all the women I know can't find guys. Oh they find ones that want a one nighter or to use their Viagra on, but none that want what they want, marriage and security.

Some women enjoy taking care of a man, and that is their prerogative. If your friends don't, and would rather be alone with their good money (which is their prerogative too) then what is the problem? Why the anger over differing lifestyle choices?

No anger just stating my observations. The op asked a question and this is one huge reason why. I'm pragmatic and it seems like a bad bargain to me unless you're the type who just can't live without taking care of someone.

Some people actually LIKE to take care of someone else. It is an active choice that they make. I know it seems very odd given that we are living in the age of Me Me Me, but some men & women value taking care of someone else over taking care of themselves.

Good for them. Who are you trying to convince? Like I stated before the op asked a question and I responded with my opinion.
So being female isn't enough but being male is? A woman needs to enhance a man's life....being female isn't enough right? Does it work the other way or is having a penis the only requirement? A woman should be filled with joy over a non-reciprocal relationship and if she isn't she is all about me.me.me

I couldn't rep you for this, so I'm giving you a standing ovation!

Generalize much? Not all men are as you describe. There are many things a man can provide to a financialy stable woman beyong sex and financial security. I am sorry you seem unaware of that.
