I keep reading about women knowingly going after the wrong type of guy's in their 20's.
As women begin to lose their looks, or hit 30, they start seeking out financially stable, predictable guys.
Not my words so don't shoot the messenger

I just want to know from women if their is any validity or truth to all these articles that say this.
Do you women continuously go after the wrong type of guy when you are younger ? Only to settle down with a stable guy later on in life ??

Attempting to generalize dating habits of women in non male-only environment= 10 yard penalty, still 1st down.

Did you really think women are all the same? Do you really believe women lose their looks in their 20's? Do you know any real women at all?

I saw women in college going after the stable, good guys, including the kind of dorky-looking ones. A lot of women have the good sense not to go after bad boys, and to go for the ones with whom there's a strong chance of finding happiness.

These media and internet phenomena tend to focus on a minority of the population and blow it up into a sensationalistic thing. And people fall for that, and believe it's the norm.

Um, no.

Stop "reading" and go see for yourself.

Why wouldn't it be common sense that men AND women date inappropriate people for long term relationships in their 20s? Why would some 20 year old guy care if a chick had a career or was a groupie if he found her attractive but wanted nothing serious? It's kinda what your 20s are for.

Both genders start to be concerned with long term goals as they get older and that includes the opposite sex.

I don't think we "chase" them, I think when we're young and naive we're much more susceptible to how charming some guys can be. Once we have sex with them chemicals are released and we get very attached to them, this is even more the case when you're young and hormones are peaking. It's not like we aspire to meet a guy who's going to disappear after sex with us and so purposely seek them out. When I was young, I was very naive and trusting and very fairy-tale minded about love, I was easy prey. When I got older, I got wiser thank God, but still at 30 I was still dumb, it took me longer.

Oh, God. Not another Bad Boy thread.

Women don't chase Bad Boys. They chase men who are not boring. Big difference.

Chasing "bad boys" doesn't necessarily stop at 30.

i dont know anybody that does this. bad boys are seen as the desired aggressors --that is part of their charm -they are actually pursuing women. so many men do not.
