[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What amazes me is all the pics on boats. You’d think 90% of guys online own a boat, until you realize it’s a friend’s boat from 5 years ago.[/quote]

Men don’t take selfies while make strange faces every 30 seconds. The only decent pictures we have are from group outings.[/quote]

Women know that selfies are a bad idea for online profiles. Men like you apparently don’t know that.[/quote]

Women _do not_ know that. In a sample of a couple dozen profiles, there are all sorts of deal-breakers, including selfies. “Men like me”? I am a viewer of dc-area older women’s dating profiles.[/quote]
NP here. Can you list some of these deal-breakers? I don't have a profile on any dating site yet, but I'd like to avoid deal-breakers. 
"Older women" is how old in your view? [/quote]

I started looking at 40-year-olds a few years ago, now 50-60. 
1. Selfies. Unflattering.
2. Professional poses photos, like for work
3. Rolling out of bed and frowning into the webcam. WTF?
4. Weight. Being 50 is one thing. We’re all soft. But also looking like a really fat American who doesn’t care ...
5. Hair. Maybe you’re a grandmother, but do you have to beat that into people?
Also, lopping off your hair. It makes you look older and less feminine. Why do women trying to date do that? Judi Densch never looked hot.
6. Very detailed profiles listing your love of crystal worshipping, mystic communion with shrubbery, etc. Off-putting.
7. Interest in a 3-way with Jesus. I don’t want to talk about Jesus.
8. Anger. I didn’t send you a dick pic. Treat strangers politely.
9. Looking for the One. That’s not me. I’m not more wonderful than the most wonderful man you’ve ever met. 
10. Explicit requirement for $400K per year danger-seeking yachtsman. Good luck.
