[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in an affluent area. The guys around me seem good. I have two sons. Both are good looking, smart and athletic. All their friends are all good looking and will probably be good catches one day.

DH earns a seven figure income. His work is full of decent men. DH and I both attended top colleges and grad schools, both full of great men. The wives of these men are usually attractive and smart.

Dating is like musical chairs. One day you may not have a match if all the chairs get taken.[/quote]

OMG, woman!  Seriously, you don’t get it.  “Good looking”, “smart”, “athletic”, “attractive” - your emphasis is all wrong and on the wrong things. You’re probably raising sexist a-holes.  How about “caring”, “supportive”, “loving”, “kind”, “good decision makers”, “empathetic” - these qualities are in short supply, especially in men.  There are plenty of successful men who would throw a friend under a bus to benefit themselves and then treat their women like commodities to be collected - women’s job it to cook clean and look after him, right?[/quote]

So I have a unicorn of a husband who is an excellent provider, doting father and a strong role model for my boys. He is kind, supportive and trustworthy. I know I am lucky. [/quote]

Good for you. Do only look at his provider masculine qualities and describe them when you talk about him? Nope “excellent provider” “strong” “for boys”. . . If women don’t want to marry your son or if they end up divorced some of that’s on you.[/quote]
