That's not necessarily so. Traditionally older men have had it easy finding younger women, who tend to appreciate the maturity, income, possessions, and stability of older men. These days older women are finding it easier to latch onto a younger man, because they now possess those same attributes previously attributed to older men.

There are always people with low self esteem but to make blanket attributions, is to be incorrect.

I used to be picky too: no tattoo, no dyed hair, no this, no that. Then I got tired of fucking my fist and now it's two tits and a heartbeat, eight to eighty, blind, crippled and crazy!!!

People DO have the right to have preferences, I just get tired of women saying that men are the most superficial sex, like as if men only care about physical features, and they all want blondes with big T&A. When in reality women are just as superficial.......they just don't talk about it as much in public.

For example your preference for dark-haired guys is definitely shared by the majority of women. Men in contrast do not care as much about hair color.

I will say however that men SEEM to be pickier about body shape than women are (but again, all we know about people's preferences is based on what they're willing to admit publically)

Yep. We like it hairless down there.

Let me correct you there; they don't talk about it WITH MEN. Get yourself a table in a restaurant near a hen circle and listen to the conversation. It might as well be a high school boys locker room.

At the end of the day, you can try and blame other people for not being perfect all you want - every failed relationship you have had does have one clear thing in common with the others. You.

Know yourself.

Like yourself.

If you don't like who YOU are, how can you expect anyone else to like you [let alone love you]. Understanding what you have to offer another person is a fantastic thing to bring to a relationship.

That just strikes me as bizarre, especially when the girl is five-nothing.

Exactly, if the girl is 5'2", why would she want a guy who is 6'5"? That's 15 inches taller, which means that her eyes would be at his nipples. Never understood why that would be attractive to a woman. Neck cramps, anyone?

Well I've seen pictures of you and I have NO idea why you'd have a hard time at all. Just sayin'.

That's completely wrong although very humorous!!
