[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]In all of the same aged couples I know (within 1-2 years of each other either way), 99% of the women look a million times better than their husbands. We are late 40s/early 50s age group. And, this is a UMC group without a single divorce in the group of about 20.

+1.

Hair loss alone explains a lot of the attractiveness gender gap. Balding is just so harsh on your looks. Also, greying facial hair.[/quote]

Women almost always look a million times better than their husbands or boyfriends.  Humans have placed a premium on female attractiveness for thousands of years.  These posts miss the relevant point.

If any of the women in the group of 20 get divorced, are they going to date other women in the group?  No, most likely they will date men.  Therefore, the women are not competing against the men to see who is the best looking.  They would compete against each other, as would the men.

There was another stupid post like this one on another thread where women bragged about how much better looking they were than the men their age.

Yes, many men in their late 40s/early 50s are fat/bald/etc.  So what? If these men get divorced, they will have no trouble finding dates. [/quote]

It’s your post that’s stupid—you didn’t read the OP. OP said women age faster and worse. As you admit, that’s wrong. Context will help you understand what is going on in the future. [/quote]
