[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m honestly shocked at this thread. I’m Arab living in DC and admittedly have limited insight into other cultures (including the dominant white people culture). I never would have thought that white men also have an issue with women in their thirties, I thought that was something cultures like ours have to deal with. Why is this the case? When I was husband hunting (I say it as it is!) I frequently wished I was a white girl, not because of looks (I’m attractive and attracted men of races other than mine but that wasn’t an option) but because I was envious of the wide pool that I assumed white women in their thirties have access to. I ended up making a rational decision by marrying someone who, while I wasn’t head over heels over and isn’t as successful as I was shooting for, has a good job, comes from upper class family (important in our culture) and is a good person.

It's a cross cultural thing because it's a biological thing. Men want young(er) women. Why would a man in his late 30s marry a woman in her late 30s when he could marry someone in her late 20s?[/quote]

No sane older man who has option between 30s vs 20s women would choose the former. [/quote]

Man here and this is dumb and trolling. Men choose women they fall in love with. We can fall in love with women our own age, and gasp, even older.

This isn't to diminish the power that looks have on men. Yes, we pick women heavily on physical appearance, at least at the start, and yes, all things being equal, younger people (men and women) have that advantage. It's good to be realistic that the dating pool gets tougher and you need to be intentional. I know men in their 30s who are marriage minded, they key is to find them.[/quote]
