[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]38 is pretty old in the eyes of most men in the age group she is looking at. She needs to up the age to mid 50s.[/quote]
Ew. I wish the gross old men would stop trying to troll op. [/quote]

Right? OP is a million times better off being single than with an old man.  Old men = baggage, liabilities, and a reminder that death is imminent.  Avoid them.

But beggars can't be choosers, so...[/quote]
Who's begging? If the options are alone or be with a nasty old saggy ball uneducated misogynistic short loser, maybe it's still better to be alone. [/quote]

If you're a 38 year old woman and you don't have kids yet and you want to, then yes you are a beggar.

The best men are taken, and many of the available ones will choose someone younger than you.

So yeah you can be alone. Or you can make some compromises. How badly do you want kids?[/quote]

Again, better to have a kid alone than with an old man, especially if he has "baggage." Being a single mom by choice is infinitely better than being divorced with a bad coparent or married to a liability. [/quote]

The long track record of kids raised by single moms does not indicate this is infinitely better [i]for the kid[/i] but I'm sure it will be different for the OP because reasons.  :roll:  [/quote]

What evidence do you have that kids are better off raised by an old dad who is a liability to their mom instead of no dad? If she has to become her elderly husband's caretaker while she still has kids at home, then he'd be taking away their mother's resources and time, which is a net negative to any kid.  [/quote]

The evidence is overwhelming that having a dad is better than not. There are plenty of older dads in the world, and the vast majority of them do just fine. You're just inventing a fantastically unlikely scenario because you hate the "older man with younger woman" idea for whatever reason. Further, unless she marries an exceptionally old man, if he has severe medical problems then these will occur when the kids are already old enough to be reasonably self-sufficient and taking her attention away won't affect them all that much.

Your whole attitude towards marriage is disgusting. A couple fall in love and get married, then one of them later gets sick, and according to you this person is now a "liability" and a "net negative"? Gross, inhuman, transactional. No doubt you'd advocate for involuntary euthanasia of an older person just to remove this "burden" on their loved ones. Ugh.[/quote]
