| Are men in general less picky when it comes to their partner, compared to women? I.e., as long as they have regular sex, are attracted to them, can carry a somewhat decent conversation, and that’s it? |
Pretty much. Also nice, positive, responsible. |
In general, yes. But a significant majority of people who have high standards in other areas of their lives have high standards in their choice of a life partner. |
| No, a lot of women settle on a lot of things because they feel pressure to marry and their biological clocks are ticking. I think that if a man has a decent job and demonstrates that he likes you, lots of women are going to be happy with that. |
Really hot men filter and date a lot. Sometimes they shoot themselves in the foot though. I've noticed men with a lot of options really are into sincerity and character. |
They want a young, hot, educated, employed yet flexible enough to be SAHM woman who can take care of husbands, kids, home, social life and in-laws and still have energy to have twice daily sex. |
| Modern men want someone equal, compatible and sincere. |
|
A woman who is fit, cute, is fun to be around, can be chill, funny with a sense of humor, and enjoys being physical. An equal.

Yeah, the thing is that when men get married, they think they don't have a lot of requirements, when in reality, most women at that point in life just naturally satisfy the requirements that men don't realize they have. We have all heard of husbands of SAHMS coming home after work and seeing the house a mess and dinner unmade, and wondering "what on earth has my wife been doing all day?" Men want a partner who contributes in an equal amount to the home (though of course they are satisfied if she does a lot more than they do), they want their spouse to create a clean and functional home environment, they want somebody who participates in the same activities that they do, they want somebody who will help them make their lives go smoothly, they want a good, kind, patient mother to their children, etc. I do think these wants are reasonable, but they definitely go beyond regular sex, attraction, and conversation. |
Except men want this even when the wife also has her own full or part-time job. |
| Someone who has no debt, good education, decent job, good income, decent family, kind nature and good morals. Good looking but not too pretty to be narcissistic or adulterous. |
But then they change their minds about avig settled afte they have kids and hate their husbands/stop having sex. |
| When women feel pressurized to settle, it doesn’t end well for them, husband or their kids. |
| They want their mom, a SAHM at home, and several young girlfriends on the side. |
Well yeah, but that goes both ways, husbands get all mad when their wives start getting frustrated at them for stopping romantic overtures, when their wives can't spend so much time with them because the kids need attention too, when wives start asking for more help with kids and housework, etc. Even if the sex/attraction/conversational skills are all there, they won't be satisfied with just that. |
