I was going to say they were the smart ones, but here I am commenting about it.


LOL, I kind of noticed that too. Reminds me of the cliche you see in the movies where the women start arguing and the men slowly back away.

For what it's worth, I feel of it more as debating--like when I used to be in a debate club in high school. Then again, I am nerdy like that.

Posts on here tend to be disjointed, you need to read them all in context with one another.
You took my one post, judged it entirely out of context and you still are doing that. Again I was using the celebrities only as examples of physical attractiveness over 40+, nothing else. Don't read anything else into it.

That being said, it's sexist and unrealistic to think that because we are girls we don't find physical features attractive on men as well as all the other factors I mentioned. Of course we find men attractive in our own ways. But you have to look at the whole package.
Hey this is a much broader problem than what is occurring on an internet board! We claim we want the whole package, but you watch how many women act in public around men and see how they start drooling around super good looking men without knowing anything about them and ignoring the other guys. And I said I've seen SEVERAL posts like that one since January. Frankly I guess I shouldn't give a crap because when I start dating again I don't confuse men by my behavior. But I'm generally not so selfish to just care about myself and not try to address the problem to help others out.

We are not addressing broader problems outside this internet board though are we? We are simply responding to the OP's question.

What is it you are worried about? Women drooling over men? Don't men drool over women too?
Why don't you start your own thread if this is your worry.
This has nothing to do with the OP's question.

Oh we aren't? Heck and here I thought this board was to discuss actual relationship issues. How damn silly of me . I'm personally not worried about anything, but once again I thought one purpose of the boards was to try to share opinions, resolve problems, etc.

Your premise is just not true. Women have certain criteria and it's just that younger men will be less likely to meet that criteria. That's the main thing. This thing also creates another effect where women simply avoid younger men to save themselves time and effort to seek for someone who is more likely to meet their criteria. It's a logical thing.


Stories that younger men "cannot maintaing a relationship" are a joke. Most young men that I met don't want to have the hassle of maintaining the relationship, they rather want to hang out with their friends, get drunk, have fun on their own, etc. Most of young women are doing the same. If you don't like the way they operate, you just can't be with them and you part away, that's all. Relationships are very casual and I'd say women who are 30 y/o simply don't want that anymore, in general. Those that don't reason this way are perfectly okay to date a younger guy and they even hang out in places where younger folks usually gather.

I should have mentioned it too... that it's not hate. Just because a woman prefers someone over someone else, doesn't mean she "hates" the later.

I'm just not into or compatible with younger men. We're at completely different stages of life, and most don't do it for me sexually, emotionally or intellectually. When I was in the dating scene my age range was set to 34-44. In the 2+ years I was in the scene I only went out with (one date only) maybe seven men below the age of 35.

You have got to be the most clueless guy your age I've encountered here thus far.
