I'm not picky at all. By saying respect, I was not referring to being at a man's beck and call' I mean DATING, the man opens the car door, etc.
And those who said sending a pic of their junk are those that I described as looking for a booty call or an STD. I assume those that send those have either stolen the pics off the internet or are so ugly that's all they have.
I don't want a hookup. I want a caring man who I can look ugly with in our sweats on Sunday morning, go brush our teeth, make love, then snuggle butt to butt and go back to sleep. If he has a gut, even better. I just want to be loved.

Alright well you have to put in the effort to look for a man, the golden rule is typically a man making the move but you should too if you want someone.
It all depends who you are speaking too be it online or offline

It would be funny to steal a pic of some other guy's junk and pass it off as my own. But the thought of hunting for a suitable pic, rough.

When we get to our age..late 40's to early 60's....it is ALL baggage. I divorced the first one when I was 39. I didn't resume dating till I was 46. I expected any men I would meet would have tons of baggage. It is how it is managed by the person having it ...if it is worth being with them.

I feel sorry for your difficulties however IMO if a women is willing to divorce one man what' to say she's not going to dump the next ?
Many of the women I've met dating divorced out of boredom .
May of these dropped me when I made it clear there was no horsing around. (they can't just be friends.
Their vows meant nothing to them.
Even though I was separated from my wife after 35+ years I remained faithful the years fallowing .
She is gone now, but I'm not anxious to marry again for any reason.
I like to meet people and share life experiences, and help when I can, but get emotionally bound up with some one else, is not my idea of spending the remaining years of my life.
I don't need the stress.

I go to church and everyone is married. Now, I'm not saying I'm a bible beater, far from it. I thought maybe I might find an old fashioned man, with respect for the female race.
I'm tired of being asked to send certain pics of myself and who in God's name thinks a woman wants to see a pic of a guy's junk? Whatever happened to some mystery and actually getting to know each other first?
I am at a total loss. Where did the respect go?
Welcome to the 21 century where dating is like a never ending nightmare. I look around at what dating has become and it makes me ill. People changing partners like they change clothes, sleep around as if STDs do not exist,as if unplanned pregnancies are impossible and HIV is just a myth. They exchange naked pictures as if clothes are too expensive to purchase. This is the world we live in today. Tis the reason why i am still very happily single and thankful that i don't buy into the "If i'm not in a relationship then something must be wrong with me" culture. There is hope though OP, good men are out there, don't stop looking because they do still exist.

Respect and getting to know each other are still out there all over the place. You need to find them in real life though. Take up some activities that will put you in repeated contact with men and women (service organizations, classes, sports, etc).

Part of your problem is your sense of entitlement. When I read the above, it tells me to have nothing to do with that person.

Lots of guys are romantic and believe in dating and doing things like opening the car door. However, these guys will very quickly sense your entitlement issues and avoid you like the plague. That leaves you with the less respectful guys who send you their junk pics.

Maybe. I opened the car door on a second date last Saturday and was greeted with a "I can open my own door, thank you". Hahaha. Can't win!

So, that begs the question, how did the rest of the date go? In my mind, that's just as much a red flag as the woman who goes in with the sense of entitlement that you have to open the door for her.
