First of all, your post is the work of an angry man crashing out. Second, sir, go argue alimony with your ex-wife, not with me. I don't care about your problems.

Not the OP but what is funny about turning fifty?
We ALL age, it comes after even the best of us.
Some will even say ->> the luckiest of us too.
Nothing funny about fifty. PP was just reminding OP that an almost 50yo woman mocking older men is laughable. She is mocking herself.
She is not mocking them, stupid. She is mocking the way they look when they let themselves go.
Are you triggered? Get some damn exercise, wear sunscreen and make an effort.
I’m a 51 year old woman and don’t understand some of the complaints like baldness or wrinkles. Be attracted to whoever you want but these are normal things.

You will do yourself a favor if you adjust your notion of what makes a man physically appealing at your age and at the age of men you'd want to date. There is no reason to excuse poor grooming. But it makes no sense to write off men with bad skin or who are balding. You don't have to date men who look pregnant, but don't reject everyone who has a dad bod. The model Paulina has a podcast about finding love at 50+ (She co-hosts it with her fiance who is bald). She noted how hot Captain Jean Luc Picard from Star Trek is, and how that helped her be open to bald guys.
GTFOH.
Men habitually reject women for being plump, having stretch marks from pregnancy, for not having the waist-hip ratio they like, for not having a certain leg shape, or even for having "man" hands.
However, we should look past their ugly bald heads with the flaky skin and patchy ring of hair. God forbid we reject them for being fat and flabby when they have no excuse whatsoever.
Affirmative action for men needs to die. They don't give passes and they don't deserve passes.

I think you're getting your information from old Seinfeld episodes. Not every man is attracted to every woman, but on average, our standards for finding a woman attractive are way lower than vice versa. The vast majority of men are physically attracted to the vast majority of reasonably fit women, regardless of details like stretch marks or leg shape.

OP, it used to be a career was all a man had to bring to the table. Men 40+ and even many under 40 still feel entitled to that low threshold. Remember "King of Queens"? A fat schlubby husband always screwing things up was the cultural equivalent of a total package wife. That's the world they want to live in. Men will do anything to avoid updating their priors.
Careful with the ones who actually take care of themselves and keep fit. They're often misogynistic and ultra mad at women. They hate that they have to make an effort to be competitive on the market.
Please, as a woman, tell the men on this board how they think and what they feel. The truth is that your hostility toward men is warping your judgment.
Let's focus on you, for a moment. Do you receive spousal support (and/or child support)? Are you on the market, bagging on men, while someone else is providing a material share of your income? If so, try giving your exDH most (if not all) of the support back and let him spend it on making himself attractive. Then, let's see how it goes.

I’m a early 40’s guy and at my run club and gym it’s super common to see dudes in their 40s and 50s with visible abs, pretty decent skin, etc
It is really rare to see women in similar shape at the same age.
Our run club has a lot of ex college athletes and lot of the participants who are in the sub 730 split group for our 13+ mile run groups are mostly under 30 women, dudes of various ages and very very few over 40 women
There are def over 50 women who are smoke shows but it is really rare.
I don’t see them at our club, at our gym, or at our firm.
There are some fitness instructors in my city over 50 I can think of that are snatched but I see random 50+ year old dudes at my firm and industry who are really fit, hit lifetime gym daily before or after work… etc

Agreed. I'm a man in my 50s married to a woman in her 50s. We are both getting wrinkles and graying and I'm balding. That's mostly beyond our control. But we can still go on an hour run or a five-hour hike.
