I was going to write this as a stand alone post about this same subject, but it will work nicely as a reply.

Most conflicts that come from dating come from flaky men trying to pick based on flaky, superficial "requirements" or vice versa. So far, all it leads to is encouraging a vicious cycle of shallow narcissism which when jilted, fuels itself into misogyny and man-hating. Every dating site is full of man haters and misogynists, not excluding this one. If people stopped being so god damn shallow and superficial, we wouldn't have half of the dating nightmare stories you hear on various message boards.

Sometimes, I wish most of my fellow men will figure out that most likely, they're not going to find a supermodel type woman, especially if they jiggle when they jump. And even if they do, once they find their supermodel, they'll probably will never be happy with the supermodel girlfriend because if you're superficial, she'll just bore you and you'll hop in bed with another supermodel woman who, most likely, is as superficial as you are and cheat on you when she's not "satisfied". You will find that 88% of your bitterness will cease once you stop chasing after the biggest boobs and go after the biggest hearts. Or sometimes, just quitting the dating game is also your best option.

Women: Ditto, except exchange aesthetics for money.

Good point.
My aunt is 49 and looks like a fitness competitor.
I have grand aunts in their 60's who are in shape and regularly exercise.

Why of course not, after all, we've all got preferences. Calling someone chubby, fat or viewing motherhood as a curse is what makes you shallow.

Wanting a fit woman with no kids is totally different than wanting a supermodel.
Since the OP says he works out a woman who does the same actually has that in common with him in addition to being his physical preference.
Maybe they could work out together.

Every time someone lists a preference they get blasted for being superficial.
The OP just wants a woman he finds attractive enough to actually want to be affectionate with and does not have to bother with the responsibility of children.

Please , give me a rational explanation why the OP is picky?

lol..

Why should his dating preferences offend you so?

People hold the right to be shallow. Who are you to say they cannot?

Why should someone go out with someone which does not meet his/her requirements? Why be miserable later?

I am not even looking for anything that is model material.

No way. I'm more interested in looks than money.

Dude, there is absolutely nothing wrong with having standards. I'm a bit more flexible than you in that how a gal's weight is distributed can mitigate being a bit overweight, and the provenance of her kids matters to me. A widow with kids, or a divorcee with kids (and how old are they, how well behaved?) are different from a straight up "single mom" who either intentionally gave birth to an, ahem, illigitimus (a) driven by religious teachings, an intention to force a guy to marry her, or worst of all, just full-on ignorance.

You are perfectly within your rights to date only women who turn YOU on, just as they are within their rights to date you only if you turn THEM on.

Now we get to the heart of the matter!
If this is what is really in your mind, yes, you are shallow.
