What kind of horn dogs are out there that say that 75 plus percent of men out there are attractive... LOL, I know I see lots of women out there that I don't find attractive...
2 people responded to the poll that 75 percent of men they found attractive.... truly odd....

Either a woman that was born in 1890's or a college coed that's wants to reside at the playboy mansion?
I'd say a small number of men I find initially attractive, but attractiveness improves easily as I get to know you! It isn't quite enough to "look attractive" that doesn't push you over into interest. Though people with dimples have a head start!
You are basically saying the same thing, but I provided more of a detailed explanation of why that is. Men don't really choose anything to be honest with you, it is always the woman that has a choice. A man can choose to approach a woman, but that's about it. She makes the decision if she is willing to accept his advances, accept marriage proposal, accept having kids and as evidenced by percentage of divorces initiated by women - divorce him.
The reason so many relationships fall apart today, is that we are more independent and most lack gender specific traits to create true sexual attraction or sexual polarity. Because of decades of demonizing masculinity and femininity (in the name of equality), modern men are far less masculine then they should be and modern women are far less feminine then in the past. If you are a man today, chances are - your father was a lot more masculine than you are and his father was more masculine than him. Same goes for women and femininity. Masculinity and femininity play a great yet undermined role in how we are attracted to one another. There is sexual friction or polarity that exists between a masculine man and a feminine woman, that acts as a glue to each relationship. In the age of gender neutral men and women, it is nowhere to be found.
The bolded is it in a nutshell. I'm not sure why so many women seem to claim something different when this is clearly what's happening IRL.
Of course, as I've gotten older and acquired more resources, I've become far more discerning in the women that I let into my life.
She has to be pretty, younger than me, and intelligent with no kids, no sketchy background, and no promiscuous past.
Unfortunately, these qualities are very difficult to find in women these days. They don't make em like they used to.
Oh please. Men choose things when it comes to women all the time. They choose to treat their girlfriends like ****, they choose to have one night stands, they choose to lie. As if women always get to choose

Sure women get to choose. They choose to be with and to stay with guys that do these things. You wouldn't believe how many otherwise intelligent women make these choices. Some repeatedly.

But do you realize how often this behavior happens? I've encountered with nearly all of my boyfriends and countless other guys. Maybe it's just a maturity thing. Guys under 25 are generally mentally inept

You do realize men do the same and that by saying men have no choice you are playing the victim card. You make it sound like all men will take anyone who will have them (even if they aren't interested). I don't know any man who is in a relationship against his will. Point is, every choice in a relationship that a woman has a man has too. Unless you have low self esteem and take anyone who comes along I suppose.
Men and women choose to stay together and choose to be in a relationship together. If a man doesn't want to be in a relationship with a woman or want to stay in one with her, he can choose to leave. Same with a woman, she can chose not to be in a relationship or leave too.
Even before a relationship someone chooses to approach or ask out, the other chooses to accept, they both choose to go out on another date (or not). Without two people choosing to be in a relationship with each other, it doesn't happen. Period.
Oh, and as for getting older and women being hard to find... that's a choice too. You chose to wait until you were older to find someone. Nothing wrong with that (I think that's a smart choice myself), but don't pretend you didn't make that choice. One of the consequences of that choice is that all the women of the world aren't going to wait for you, so later, there are less women available to you that meet your standards because other men, made the choice to find those women sooner. Or you choose to have a younger woman with no children... again, your choice. You limit yourself with your choice, but it's your right to date who you want. But again, don't pretend it's not a choice you made. Me, I am dating later in life too where I am more established... yes, it made it harder to find someone. But I didn't make the same choices you did as I am dating someone my age with children (the children are adult children and aren't an issue at all... they don't come on the dates with us after all or even care--beyond any concern an adult child might have for a parent of course). But that's my choice and mine doesn't have to be the same as yours or vice versa.
