I don’t understand why someone is shallow for wanting a person with certain physical attributes. That would make one shallow if that’s how he chose whom to hire or even befriend, but that doesn’t have anything to do with which people attract us. We can choose whom to hire or whom to befriend, but we can’t choose what people we are attracted to. Attraction just is what it is. [/quote]
Then why call a woman a whore for wanting to find a man who can support her and her children?  It's not like most women want a sugar daddy so they can do nothing but shop all day. Most women just want a man who can financially support the family because they know that women do the majority of child care and house chores. You try doing the majority of that and wor full time.  And no, take out, warming up leftovers, not having your kids bathe for a week, etc.  doesn't count as doing the "majority of housework/childcare".

It's not shallow to be attracted to physical beauty. It is shallow to have that your #1 priority.[/quote]

Maybe this thread is running out of new commentary and winding down, because I feel like I'm just repeating myself.  I'm the guy who used the word, whore. Actually, whoring.  In response to several woman (or the same woman posting several times?) who agreed they would gladly choose a man who meets 1. even if she would otherwise have nothing to do with the man because of his: age, looks, sexual appeal or ability, personality, or other traits that make a good partner.  This also applies to giving a guy consideration for a first date.  The money is a door opener to a guy who would otherwise be rejected in a heartbeat.

1. he has lots and lots of money 
2. he is very fit and looks much younger than 60 
3. the woman is very very desperate

I'm too lazy to go back and find the posts of mine, but what I said, and repeated a few times (because it's necessary to repeat what you've said in these threads-reading comprehension and attention span being what it is) is that while men are called out for having standards that include attractiveness  and youth as a first consideration, some women here are willing to ignore their own standards and will gladly whore themselves out for the guy with money.  It's like looking at the guy as an ATM machine with a pot belly, bald head, remote in one hand, beer in the other, and somehow finding him attractive if it means he, "can support her and her children."

In the end, finding a partner for the long term is all about your priorities in life and whatever makes you happy.  And I get it, I really do.  Sometimes, compromises need to be made.  Perhaps I should have used the less offensive word, compromise, instead of, whoring.  BTW, if you are willing to choose #1 over a guy you are genuinely attracted to for reasons other than money, aren't you also the definition of #3?[/quote]
