The childless is a definite dealbreaker, the never married is pretty much a dealbreaker except in extreme cases (like he was civilly married)and the Catholic is pretty strong too but I could bend on this if he has the other two and is open to going to church.

I am not bitter Onglet. It's merely an observation based on the past few months of your posts.

You think? I don't think; I know what the Bible says about this and so many people would have so much less trouble in their lives if they would read the Bible and use it as a guide. People like to disregard the Bible and think they know better, but they don't and they end up unhappy because people that cannot listen have to learn the hard way. Sex was never meant to be outside of marriage. And sex is between a man and a woman otherwise the body parts don't match. It is just common logic.

The only ones I call scum are the men who have several out of wedlock children and I stick by this. Divorced dads just don't fit what I desire and no interest in being a stepmom or supporting his other family.

You have such a skewed view based on your bitterness at your inability to score yourself a decent guy. Don't blame feminism for your own failures.
That's exactly it, many women are single because they refuse to settle and didn't care if they married. I know several women who are very happy they are single at 40 or above. I've had several relationships but I knew none of them had what I desired in a marriage.

You also call obese people disgusting. You just don't need to call people names and talk about them so cruelly. It's just not necessary.

Cool for you.

Curious why you feel you must defend this constantly ? Are you trying to justify to yourself your desires ?

I like women who drive red cars. I hardly ever post about that.

I think you've been drinking way too much today. I date single mothers.

You're confused.

I can respect that.

I am not a Christian myself, but the basic tenets, if followed properly, are actually useful...... I think a lot of people abuse religion and treat it like an a la carte buffet.......JMHO as always....
