They’re called “preferences” and women are allowed to have them for reasons other than insecurity.

Or is men preferring thin women also insecure in which case at least you’re consistent.


You’re allowed to have as many “preferences” as you want as long as you never complain that there aren’t enough dating options out there.

I do think men who have a prescribed weight or hair color or whatever for dating are being dumb.


I don’t complain, I’m happily married to someone who was thrilled to meet all of my preferences.

Big deal, I am an a women, age 85-85, height 5'4"-5'4", and am 0%. I might lower my standards to .04% if you promise to use protection.

Maybe you are 30-39, unmarried, white, 6'2", non-obese, earning $200K+. That is .04% of all, and .07% of white men 30-39. But that is not the right way to look at it. Probably most women you date a man who is 6'"1, or makes only $190K, or is slightly younger or older.

As shown above, the ideal man calculator gives different results for marriage rates, height, obesity, and income depending on race. Unfortunatley, the ideal woman calculator seems to give identical proportions by race.



Rawrrr. Come here, girl! I love the chase. You have a deal!

I could understand maybe if you're very religious, for example a Muslim or a Black Evangelical or something and there is a strong conservative social-cultural bind, but if you're like a generic white person with no religion tying you down why wouldn't you be open to dating people of any other race?


I married someone who was born here and the family just made excuse after excuse about their behavior because they didn't appreciate living here. Will never marry an immigrant family again unless they've been here 3 generations. I don't know about other races. I find that a lof of times it's their family that always thinks their son could do better.

Probably, but bear it mind is also leaves off a whole host of desirable "non-negotiable" traits.


Yeah, they leave off things like education, criminal record, hard drug use, etc.


The one I've used has education. Criminal record and hard drug use aren't really applicable to a 55 year old making $200k.


hahahahahaha

Yes, they do. Probably because of the large overlap between race and culture as well as societal pressures.

I think I might have a clue about why you can't find a date.

Can’t help but notice that your statistics require men not to be obese, but women not to be overweight. Why the double standard?
