I haven't been booted from here yet, so I'm doing something right.
Posting tasteful pictures of my "vacation" at the nudist colony didn't get me booted. Most liked them and thought it a hoot but somebody doesn't have a sense of humor.
You are pretty clueless if you believe that they would be frank about this with you.
Men keep this to themselves in mixed company and use these forums to get the truth out to other men.
Women may be more forthcoming but they hold all the aces so can do this with relative impunity. In comparison, men must grovel for the favors of women and dare not say what they think.
I'm the only goof ball in my crew that spends time on message boards. Trust me, my friends look at me like I have a screw loose when I mention these boards. I always get "you're still doing that?" And you are the one who is clueless if you think your worldview encompasses men from all walks. It's not only clueless but pretty self-involved. Further, I had a twin brother. I came into this world wrapped in the arms of a male and by default couldn't have been closer to another human being, so I'm not going to buy into claims that since you have a penis you can speak for all men. And you speak for all women to boot, which only really speaks to your delusions.
If the problem is about looks, then I must ask this question. Have all these women that keep saying the can't "find" a decent guy ever stop and consider that those guys aren't interested in you because they can do better. And the reason you can't "find" them is because they're not looking for you.
It's like me saying I can't "find" a playboy bunny, why can't I just "find" one. It's this delusional sense of entitlement that so many people have these days.
Agreed, Djuna. There is little more joy in life than laughing. It's a great high and a core aspect of a healthy life IMO. I look at my mom and grandma who have been cracking each other up for decades. One or both are always racing for the bathroom because they make each other pee their pants!
older men have an easier time, generally speaking, in their 40's looking for a LTR than in their 20's.
This is false for several reasons.

Women find it much more difficult to find an LTR at that age than men? Wrong. Maybe men are more desperate at 40 and women maintain their expectactions. That may be true, but it is wrong to say it is more difficult.
I don't equate sex appeal and a person's value. Don't get too cocky sweetie, despite your failed attempts to link a bunch of studies into your own nonsense theory, you haven't substantiated anything. Another poster said it well - women 40+ had a harder time finding a LTR than women 40-. Men 40+ have an easier time (or not as difficult a time as women do) finding a LTR than men 40-.
This is bologna. ^^ Who is this guy?
I don't even want numbers or studies. Tell me in your own words how the bolded portion makes sense.

Actually right.

Maybe? No, few care anymore by that age. All you have is a hypothesis and a false one at that. It's women who are fare more interested in a relationship at that age because they are the only ones who have anything left to gain.

I disagree. If you were correct we would not have so many of you complaining about women. I think you care too much.

Holy cow...you are SO wrong. Most of the newly-divorced men I've known in my lifetime, and that's usually late 30s to mid or late 40s, look to hook up more or less immediately...they really feel that hole in their lives.
On the other hand, while many newly-divorced 20s or 30s women I've known did want a new relationship -- usually because of the children, women in their 40s generally have NOT wanted another marriage by any means -- they are so completely done, at least for a while, with cleaning up after kids and a husband! They don't need a new husband to take care of. They just want to finally relax and actually have a relationship that's just for them, just for their happiness and that's it; no "and hey, look at all the stuff I can do for you!" necessary this time around. That's been my experience.
