Quoted:
Turns out I'm wrong about women peaking in their early 20's and guys peaking in their 30's. Women’s desirability peaked at the youngest age possible to join the dating app — 18 — and declined until age 60. Men's desirability increased until 50. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2018/08/08/online-dating-study-quantifies-whats-out-of-your-league/?utm_term=.248972543186 HuffPo: After 20 Years Of Marriage, I Discovered My Husband Was A Sugar Daddy I thought I had it all: three beautiful kids, a CEO husband who took care of those beautiful kids when I traveled to East Africa to run a nonprofit, a big house in an affluent suburb in Silicon Valley, a vacation house at the lake. But little did I know what was going on behind my back or how radically my life would change when I discovered my husband’s secret.
My numbness gave way to a variety of other emotions: anger, disgust, shame. I called my husband and told him what I had found. “How could you do this?” I demanded. “How could you take another woman to that hotel that we had stayed in together? And why did you do this?” He didn’t answer my questions. He just told me it felt good to be appreciated by these women and claimed I had brought this on myself. Then he rubbed my face deeper in his cruelty by adding, “And I took her there because it’s a great hotel.” |

Quoted: What kind of wife and mother leaves her family for extended periods of time to play the hero role in Africa? Not saying it is right for her husband to seek the affection of nubile golddiggers half the age of his wife but in this case I can certainly understand the frustration that would lead to that. View Quote ETA: She was a weapons grade self-involved rich white California woman. We should be thanking our fucking lucky stars she's just doubling down on self involvement and not running for Congress. |

Most couples are willing to accept aging is not pretty, but her taking off and leaving him with the kids, doing the cooking when she doesn't have a job...those things point to the fact she's a bit on the selfish side and thinks he should love her because she's there and she doesn't have to contribute. He obviously had some money so I'm guessing he didn't want to lose the kids...but who knows. |

That's phrased badly, but there is a point to it. If all someone brings to a relationship is youthful beauty, that fades. People are capable of bringing more than that, but there are a significant number of people who think they will always be "beautiful" and they don't need to worry about anything else. A lot of them tend to be ugly inside though. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Women have a short shelf life of usefulness Very few people think they will always be beautiful. A fair number don’t bother worrying about anything else because the rest of it doesn’t seem to matter. That can lead to ugly places. Teach your children to be better, both the girls and the boys. |

The woman has a shallow set of requirements and it seems the things she wants are indicative of her being a shallow person. He's got to be tall, he's got to be hot, must be cultured, and looks good in a suit? Come on. How about trying to find someone who's honest, caring, and fun to be around, and go from there.

And a lot of women are told that their looks are the most important thing about them, which is reinforced by a common male attitude of looks being one of the most important characteristics they consider in a partner.

View Quote I get a little frustrated when talking with my female friends about this stuff, because they'll talk about all the non-physical qualities they want in a guy, but when you watch what they do, they are extremely heavily influenced by appearance. They don't like to admit it, or feel like they aren't supposed to, but it's there. They really didn't appreciate it when I told them the way they talk about guys' height is a lot like how some guys talk about bra sizes... that didn't go over well. :-D |

Men don’t often rely on their looks to let them skate through life, which says that appearance gets much less consideration for men. OTOH, men quite often remark that education, hobbies, skills, and talents don’t really factor in when considering a woman. Personality matters a bit, but a lot of flaws will be glossed over if she’s pretty enough, suggesting that appearance matters more than personality, even though the former is temporary and the latter matters much more in a long term situation. |

When I was single and nailing chics, looks were paramount, then body, then a tight snatch, then discretion. I doubt that has changed for the young men of today. For many others, they seem to be afterthoughts if considered at all. Men who ignore blatantly obvious personality flaws, men who know nothing of their woman’s hobbies or interests, and of course study after study that show education/career accomplishments aren’t given positive weight in selection. Anecdotal, but i’ve observed that often men differ very little in the way they seek out short term partners and long term partners. It seems more a case of they decide it’s time to settle down and do so with whoever they happen to be currently dating. And if they’ve always prioritized looks over everything else, they just keep on with that prioritization. |

Quoted: Actually, everyone in that particular conversation, I would say, is an extremely good person. They'd just never had the comparison drawn. I've not met many women under 5' 10" who are very interested in dating someone who's not taller (optimally more than a few inches) than they are. Taller women seem less concerned, out of necessity. View Quote |

Quoted: This was my experience with online dating. As an official manlet, at 5'8", I lost count of how many times I was told I was too short to date, or "I'm only interested in guys 5'11" or taller". The thing that kills me, is all the women who thought that was ok, but if a guy said he only dated skinny women, he was some kind of giant asshole who deserved to be drawn and quartered. View Quote I do remember one woman i was texting for a couple of days, was going good, we had mutual acquaintances and similar interests. Then she asked how tall i was. I answered honesty. I did not counter with my go to follow up of "how much do you weight?" She replied with "sorry, it matters" and that was that. About a year later she started following me on instagram and snap, liking all my pics, your basic social media female indications of interest. I'll be polite because of our mutual acquaintances but ill never ask her out again. |

A similar trend is evident in regards to men as well. BUT men are reproductively viable well into the 50's and 60's with modern medicine etc. So it's a less hard wall than for many women. |
