I believe that's mostly a result of online dating. Such conversations just don't take place if you meet one person the old-fashioned way. With online dates everybody has a list of people to see and tries to put a quick checkmark or cross next to their names and keep going. If they want to get married and you don't, they don't feel like seeing you anymore. Same the other way around.
I agree with this, though I wouldn't be put off by it if we met offline. Best not to waste time with someone who isn't seeking the same things you are.
Yea I wouldn't go five minutes without asking how old and in some cases asking for I.D.
Had a girl staying with me one time,told me she was 18.Found out later on from another girl that she was a 16 year old run away. That girl was back home in Kentucky in just a few hours.
In case you don't want kids, this statement doesn't make much of a sense to me. If she looks good enough and young enough for you to be attracted to her, what difference does it make how old she really is?!
Have to agree with this one! She`s good enough to take home for a night or two, but nothing serious huh?
Why is it that if I'm on a casual, first meeting/date with a guy, he asks:
1) Do you want to get married? or: 2) Do you want kids? or better yet: 3) How old are you?
...
I have never asked questions #1 and #2. The third question is fair to ask if the woman appears to be less than 18 years old. But there are probably more tactful or less obvious ways of asking it...
I agree, if he's attracted to the 40-year old, what does age matter? it's only a number.

Let me rephrase that, I do not want someone else's kids. I dont know if I do or dont want kids until I find someone I deem suitable to have children with and raise them. That hasnt happened, therefore at this time I do not want children. To me when people just simply say "I want kids" and arent in a relationship, its kind of just setting off a red flag that they are going to drop their standards immensely in pursuit of a male that has the ability to knock them up. This doesnt imply they have very high standards (to me).
Most women my own age or older already have kids or baggage, so I aim for a bit younger than myself as they usually dont have those issues yet. In the event I find someone 10 years older I still am not interested, usually because in the long run I wont have enough in common with them, and once again I want someone closer to my age so we can go through a lot of the debilitating diseases later in life together (lol). Also this is all just my viewpoints and opinions on the topic, I'm not trying to push my views on anyone, do what makes you happy.

I dont "take women home" or take advantage of them.
