[quote=Anonymous]I think most of us like men who are fit, groomed and dress well, but have you ever come across girls who won't date a guy unless he looks like a shirtless Abercrombie & Fitch model? This is what my sister constantly does - she gets her heart broken again and again by these a**holes who are physically "perfect 10s", but refuses to date a man who doesn't look like a runway model. I've told her that she's being ridiculously superficial and that she can't expect to get a hot, tanned model-looking guy who is both asshole and family man, loyal to her, intelligent and successful, loves her parents, etc etc but she won't listen.

I also think it's very odd for a woman to put such a premium on male beauty that she would only date a man who resembled Matthew McConaughey, and considers Paul Rudd "a 7, too pale and nerdy-cute for me". It's ridiculously shallow! I've never prioritized beauty in a man (I care more about his brains/strength) and I don't know any female friends who do. Is this normal, a generational gap that I don't understand? My sister is ten years younger than me and I think she has a wild party life (she just graduated college), but claims to want to settle down with a man who fits all the above criteria.

Can I get advice for talking sense into this woman? Should I even bother or is this normal and should I just let her be? What do her priorities say? I can't help but feel that she is being immature. (And while we're on the subject I wish she'd stop partying and drinking so much too.)[/quote]
