The problem comes from how men (in general) cannot advertise that they like a certain cup size without ridicule, while women (in general) can advertise that they like a certain height or build without ridicule.

Though I think that man CAN advertise that they like a certain height without ridicule. Maybe cup size is just on a different level of shallowness? Is there a female equivalent aimed toward men that they can't advertise without receiving flak from the opposite gender?

This could be an interesting discussion on its own.

I was going to say income, but plenty of women feel comfortable listing that. Probably the size of a guy's you-know-what.

But wouldn't that be the equivalent of the "capacity" of the girl's you-know-what? I feel like that's yet another level.

not sure, I'm not familiar with online dating really, but I can't imagine there being that many quality singles that go online to find love. Seems like it would be an even bigger needle in a hay sack. I don't know if age groups has anything to do with it though, as I'm in my mid 20's.

A girl who rejects a guy over something so silly did that guy a favor. Now he knows she's shallow and can move onto someone else.

No, he sees what he wants to see. It's easier to bash women and claim they're shallow when you have very little proof to back that up than it is to look in the mirror and ask yourself if you said or did something wrong. And here's a novel thought. Maybe there was nothing wrong with you including your car, but the girl simply found someone she liked better.
No, he sees it as it is. I live the life, I know what he's talking about. Other sexed persons standing on the sidelines and sniping at everything are the ones who see what they want to see.

Because they are women. Very simple.
Women can be picky online and offline. They even admit men are more simple/easier to please than women.

You probably can't imagine it because you're still in your 20s. When you get older, you'll discover that meeting quality people isn't as easy. People have demanding jobs, long commutes, possible kids and/or parents to take care of, and a bunch of other demands on their time. Consequently, they don't want to waste what little free time they do have. As you get older, there's a greater chance that the people you'll meet are already taken, overweight, or have kids. This is not like being in your 20s where most people are still attractive, don't have kids, and aren't married yet.

No, he and you see it the way you want to see it, which is by finding fault with everyone else instead of looking in the mirror. But given that you're the same person who thinks people who view your online profile but don't have one visible must therefore be blocking you, I wouldn't expect you to understand.

It does seem women have no problem voicing their likes and disliks on these sites but if you mention breaat size or dress size as a must youre a pig..

meh, its not that easy just cause i'm in my 20's. Quality people are hard to find at any age. I would think quality is better the older you get, maybe I'm wrong though. I just wonder how it could be better online if people I meet out and about are people I'm incompatible with. I feel like it would be worse online, lol. I know at least 5 people who've met their so's online so I'm not knocking it but I can't imagine what they had to go through before meeting someone special, especially online.
