[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the first casting,  I didn't understand why any eligible young man would want to fall in love and get engaged to a woman with two baby-dadfies snd three very young children.  Why would a young guy want to parent THREE young kids that aren't his, with two other guys in the picture?  That would be a LOT fir ant 25-35 yr old guy.  How were they going to make her look like the "ideal woman"???   Fail![/quote]

The cast doesn't know who the lead will be when they are apply and are cast for the show. Casting puts together a group of men / women that they think will get ratings and views and that fit into roles production wants and who will work well with producers and story tellers. They have a pool of talent that they pull from for the casting. The men / women find out they have been cast and then later find out who the lead will be when it is made public which in this case was about a month before the first day of filming. Sure they  could have pulled out but by then they have signed contracts, assigned producers, and are part of the franchise machine. [/quote]
Also come on, I'm not a single mom but can we please stop with the misogynist "What man wants a woman who's raising another man's kids" bullshit.

There have been single moms on The Bachelor/Bachelorette for years now. [/quote]

single moms, sure.  Most were contestants, not the lead.  The lead is the one set up as the prize, the ideal catch.  Emily had one child from one guy, who had passed so he wasn't in the picture.  Also, Ricki was about 7 when Emily was the lead.  Very different to have a lead with THRER kids including a 2 yr old and a 5 yr old, with two other guys tbat the "winner" will have to navigate.  That's a lot of stuff that TFP was bringing with her.  For any woman in real life, sure single moms deserve love and life is messy.  But if you are the lead in Bachelorette-land, where you are supposed to be courted by 25 guys at the same time , that’s way too much stuff.
