Not all single moms are promiscuous whores.

It also doesn't take into account sexual orientation. If you live in an area with a large gay population (as I do), these numbers don't matter if you don't have the right plumbing.

I know not all single moms are promiscuous. I specified the case in while husband dies or goes AWOL, divorce,etc. I am specifically speaking in terms of the women who got pregnant by some no good man, never got married at all, and then repeated that same behavior.

As for being a mother in one's 40s, if it came down to it, adoption is an option
I'm not ready for kids right now, hence I tend to avoid dating women who have children. I also require a woman with the same values as me. My values on marriage and family are this: Wait until marriage to have children, waut until marriage to have sex. Those are values I live by, and if I make any attempts to find a woman to be my girlfriend, I want her to have those same values.

Fair enough, but at 30 that's going to be a lot harder for you to find regardless of where you live than it would have been at 20.

I know it will be more difficult at my age. I have admitted this. I have wondered what role being in the Atlanta area might play.

Late 20s or 30s virgin ladies are rare everywhere, even Utah, the data is overwhelming on this.

If you're open to "born again virgins" well, that's different.

Virgins in general , of either gender, are getting rarer. I guess I am the last of a dying breed. Maybe one reason I am not so desperate to getbinto the dating world now is because of the slim pickings.

Apparently there a lot of women here but they are mentally disturbed. I understand women want the "guy" with the most money. Is it worth waiting until your 50. Very frustrating up here

There is nothing wrong with meeting a single mother. I think you're doing yourself and disservice to them by writing them off. In fact a single mother won't have time or inclination for games, will be tough and likely independent (unless looking for a sugar daddy). Using basic judgment should be able to filter this out.
