I'm getting a little older, late 30's, and my mind often wonders to thoughts of why I should or should not get married. The only reason that comes up at all is to have Children. There are plenty of woman Ive met that fit the bill as far as attractiveness and the ability to get along with.
If I was to choose a mate it would most likely have to be someone that would produce kids who would have every physical, emotional, and intellectual advantange possible based on my genetic make up combined with my potential mate. I'm not talking about producing a super kid, I would just want my children to have every advantage in life possible.
So in my case I would want my potential mate to be as tall as me but not taller than me 5'8"-6.0" would work. Attractive. Athletic but not bulky. I'm thinking volley ball player in college. In their 30s. Good skin: darker pigment, light color eyes. At least a 4 year degree and completed it in a timely manner. Makes close to what I make. No family history of early diseases, abuse or drug addiction or other pyscological disorders.
Am I being unrealistic? I fit that description on the male side so would finding a mate that fits it on the female side be unrealistic? Would this turn woman off if they saw this requirement on a dating site?
Sounds like a tallish order in the real world at this point, but the Build a Wife by Your Own Specs factory might be able to fill it in a few decades or so...

If you are looking for a mail-order bride/mother-of-your-children or a simple egg donor - then sure - having this list of requirements is great. If you are actually looking to create a family based on love - then having a list like that is... well, stupid.
I knew my husband would make a good father early on in our relationship. He also talked about wanting kids before I did (he was also ready to have kids before I was). Was this attractive to me? Yes. But it wasn't because of his height, his skin, his degree, etc. - it was because of who he was as a person. I fell in love with HIM and I wanted to have children with HIM because I love HIM.
You sound like you are looking for an egg donor - not a wife.
Hmm, not sure if there are dating sites devoted to breeding/animal husbandry, but anyway your criteria are mostly superficial and not necessarily indicative of the potential for healthy, successful offspring. Maybe look for single, female astronauts?
Despite all the criticism, I've thought about things of that nature. Not to the full extent you have, but I always wondered if I should go for a tall wife, so that we would produce tall children. Don't think there's anything wrong with that, OP, everyone does it subconciously in one way or another.
