You don't run around talking about women like breeding stock. But...it's guys like you that need to also stand up for women, instead of either standing back or enabling the misogynists.

Women 15 years younger or less are too immature for YOUR age bracket, for their age bracket they are just fine actually. The same goes for guys. What do you expect from someone at 21? It's like saying you can't have a decent conversation with babies because they slur their words, well duhhhhhhhhhh! Link to post Share on other sites

mental_traveller Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 A 22-26 year old girl wants someone her age to date. To majority of them, any guy past 30 is a dinosaur and will only garner a "eew, pervert" comment from them. Because these girls are young enough to still be living off their parents, so your money doesn't impress them and they are certainly not impressed with the receeding hairline or potbelly you are starting to spot. 26+ girls will give guys in their 40s a chance ONLY if he's loaded and showers her with material things. Unless you are George Clooney/Brad Pitt, of which there are only 5 or so in the world, she doesn't find you physically attractive in any way. She finds your wallet attractive and that usually lets her tolerate you a bit more. The only 40 year old guys who are able to score women nearly half their age are rich guys who are not stingy. Your average joe has no chance in hell. Total nonsense. Average looking older men on average salaries can pull, shag, date, and in some cases marry a decent proportion of attractive 18-25 year old women. I have seen it happen many times, so I am talking from direct observation. The rest of you are just spouting opinions based on your own personal prejudices, not facts based on real world evidence.

mental_traveller Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Reference to broke comes up twice. I think you just bolstered someone else's opinion of the old guys needing money to get the young chicks. Well, since he DID get the chick and the young broke guy didn't, I'd say that it was the YOUNG guy who needed money here, right? Link to post Share on other sites

mental_traveller Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Facts about males over 40, causing breeding problems, due to DNA fragmentation in sperm: Non-verbal intelligence of children, declines exclusively due to paternal age.Greater rate of miscarriage, infertility and birth defects due to fragmentation of DNA.Children born to men from 40 and up have six times the risk of having autism, than from men under 30.The risk of children developing prostate and breast cancer later in life, is due to paternal age.Exclusively due to aging paternal sperm are the risks of Apert Syndrome, Crouzon syndrome, Pfeiffer syndrome, dwarfism, and 50% of Down syndrome cases.Paternal aging sperm contribute to a higher percentage of schizophrenia.Is everyone with me so far?

mental_traveller Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Do you have a diamond earing too? No, but in any case I was talking about a friend of mine, not myself. The fact remains, this guy gets young women despite being middle-aged, average looks, average income, average dress-sense. He doesn't try to "act young" in a fake way, just acts himself. The posts of yourself and others just tell me that you have a bunch of ridiculous stereotypes about human relationships, and have no real idea how to attract the opposite sex. If you did, you would understand that charisma and personality can more make up for being older than average (or most other deviations from "perfection"). An interesting, smart, reasonable-looking 45 year old will be much more likely to pull a beautiful young woman than a dull, thick, fat and ugly 20 year old. No amount of bitter rantings by ageing harridans, man-hating feminazis, or average frustrated chumps will alter that fact. Link to post Share on other sites
mental_traveller Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I would question the exact same things Manugeorge! If I were a woman at 41 and I had a man half my age interested in me I too would question what he could possibly see in me, and I would think he would question my emotional stability as a grown woman. It goes both ways. Nothing personal here, but you seem to have a very cynical, limiting, and jaded view of people and relationships. Why are you so obsessed by age? Why can't two people just happen to click and get along like a house on fire, based on mutual attraction in physical and personality terms, without age having to be the dominating factor? Why wouldn't you think the guy might find you attractive? Or interesting? Are you trying to say that no 41 year old woman could possibly attract a guy on her own merits, that she can only hope to be the leftovers for guys too desperate to get someone younger? What a depressing point of view. I find it sad that someone can think in such an embittered and close-minded fashion about love and romance. Link to post Share on other sites

Are you another guy who's creating an alternate reality? I don't honestly believe that men over 40 are biologically useless. Just tired of the bashing for women over the age of 30. You need to hang around a bit more before taking people to task so you understand why some "harsh" facts are being illustrated by women in their twenties and thirties about men in their forties. We're sick and tired of the misogyny. Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly how much effort do you think your friend has to make to bang those skids? One, half a shooter?

c-riouz Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I'm laughing that there are at least two 20-something younger women who have issue with 40-something leches! At least three now. I can't even describe how much the thought of being with an older man (= 40 +, not to mention someone 50 + who could be my own father ) repulses me. First off, if he dates a much younger one now (me), he might as well trade me in later. Secondly, it screams desperateness and clinginess to his lost youth, furthermore it screams commitment issues, or he was unsuccessful with a former marriage. Why would I want anyone like that? Seriously, guys....stop kidding yourself. Usually 20-somethings are NOT into you. Link to post Share on other sites
popey Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 My sister and I used to have a laugh at guys who were our fathers age hitting on us, and showing off their superior financial status to guys our age. We'd discuss politics from thier youth with interest, and then express that they have so much in common w/ our dad! Then ask if they have sons our age. Link to post Share on other sites
Cherished Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I am with PrettyBaby on this one....if a man is in a relationship with a younger woman, good for them, but don't assume it's all about cash and not about love. But then you can't make snarky remarks about women being with younger men, also, and thinking the guy is just in it for sex. Love who you love but don't make it about stats and what's normal and whatever. Personally I prefer to date within my own age range (a few years older and younger.) I am 37 and an attractive, successful 38 year old man just contacted me through chemistry.com....obviously he doesn't feel the same as men who feel its all about the younger women.(Let me know if you want a link to his profile and tell me he's NOT successful and attractive.) Also, don't assume that young men are broke! I know a 37 year old guy (who happens to be a virgin, but that's another story), who makes $30,000 a year working in his PARENTS' comic book store...sorry,but that's what I made when I started teaching 14 years ago...starting salary, straight outta college...this dude is the same age hasn't made any progress and he graduated college....why did he bother with the college to sell comic books at his parents' shop...At least 14 years later I have doubled my salary....of course that is with the masters degree, which paid for itself in two years from the amount of the salary advancement for achieving this goal. Couldn't this guy by now at least have bought his own shop or bought his parents' shop, or done SOMETHING to further his career...now he finds himself at 37, a virgin, making $30,000 and paying for his own bennies. What a catch, huh, living in a dumpy downtown apartment? Hmmm... THEN we have the 23 year old man I know who is a civil engineer pulling in $75,000 straight out of college....how much are you making, SAMSPADE??? THE RICH SUCCESSFUL GUYS AREN'T ALWAYS THE OLDER GUYS. THERE ARE A LOT OF GO-GETTER SUCCESSFUL MEN IN THEIR 20'S, SO YOU GUYS IN YOUR 40'S, STEP IT UP OR YOU'RE GOING TO GET STOMPED OVER AND PUSHED ASIDE FOR THE 24 YEAR OLDS, ANYWAY.

What a depressing point of view. I find it sad that someone can think in such an embittered and close-minded fashion about love and romance. But it's not love and romance It's a handful of guys that missed their window of opportunity with women earlier on in life while they were busy tinkering with their playstations who are trying desperately to play catch up. They use worlds like "playa" and "game" and impress each other with their stories of women much in the way you might do in your late teens. No point shooting the messenger for pointing out the bleedin obvious. Men in their 40's chasing skirt - it's sad, and every half attractive guy that's grown up knows it.

Funny how your real world experiences go against mine, all I've seen most women make fun of these guys or get irritated with them leering at them like a slab of meat while performing the grandad dance I was trying to think of an appropriate way of describing such men that you are easily impressed with (by the way their stories are never half way near the truth), and I finally decided what the best way I can summarise it with is Lack of class Link to post Share on other sites

Really, do you live in a region where a great plague has wiped out the 20-27 year old male population??? I doubt it- chicks are just as discerning about looks as men. Nice try though. Most people tend to pair up in the same age/attractiveness bracket. 8's pair up with 8's and so on and so forth. Unless your friends use ruffies or possess mind control... I doubt it.

The Collector Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 How many times have you sat at place where there is a lot of pedestrian traffic and laughed at the old geezer parading around in the convertible and Italian suit trying to get the attention of women half his age? We all do it because it is a sad pathetic sight that anyone who has an inch worth of grey matter can spot and laugh at a mile away. Some men are less subtle than that in how they dress and the toys they display but the desperation is still very noticeable. They are desperately trying to hang on to something that has escaped them many decades ago, no matter how you slice it and that's a humorous thing to see. How many times have you been in a club and laughed at the old cougar parading around in her low cut top and Itailan shoes trying to get the attention of men half her age?

Some women are less subtle than that in how they dress and the flesh they display but the desperation is still very noticeable.
