Not everything is an organized oppression.

The only thing you got right in this nonsense was the bolded part. A man's checklist for a mate is two things: be hot enough, be willing.

Women in contrast have 10 boxes on the checklist a man has to hit: wealth, height, job, dick, apartment/house, car, personality, family. et al.

And as they get old and lose their physical value to men, women, get this---GET EVEN PICKIER. They basically give up on dating by their mid 30s instead of putting out more in hopes of finding a mate.

Women are crazy.

Yes, they are. What do you even know about it, woman? Nothing. Stop womansplaining.

LOL, there are plenty of us women in our 30s and 40s who date, have sex with, and even marry men our own ages! Do they think younger women are attractive? Sure, some of them. But are they able to find someone their own age who also does it for them? Yes, lots. Even you don't need someone to explain that to you.

Unlike women, men aren't constantly besides themselves in panic and confusion and running to friends for advice over every uncertainty and frustration.

"Why can't I find someone?"
"Do you think I'm handsome?"
"I like this girl, what should I do?"
"We met for coffee do you think she likes me?"
"It's been two days should I call her?"
"She said _____ , is that a red flag?"

So no, I don't need to tell men anything because men are mature and independent enough to handle their own romantic affairs.

Gee it seems like every woman on DCUM knows some pathetic ugly old incel who pines for a supermodel. Apparently there is no other kind of single man in the DC area. Sad!

To be fair, the men who are a good catch and don't prioritize looks generally aren't single.

If you don’t why do you think it’s okay to tell women to date men they are not attracted to.?

Are you so steeped in misogyny that you do not believe women care about physical attraction?

Do you believe men are entitled to attention and dated just because?

Sick of this double standard.

- happily married to someone I’m attracted to.

Someone has watched too many teen rom-coms.

Is this true? Most of my past bf's and and my husband are pickier than I am about women (they seem more critical of their looks) and all their past gf's were very hot. I don't believe they would sleep with most women.

The men I know are very picky. I know many men in their 30s who complain about being single, but are extremely critical of looks and won't settle for anything less than an 8, even though many of them are a 5 at best.

Man, I've known one of these since law school. He is 48 years old and STILL wants to date 25 year olds. He has a great personality and is now a judge, but has not aged well. I tell him all the time that his beauty and age standards are all wrong.

If he came on this board complaining about his situation and seeking advice, he would get his ass handed to him, be told explicitly what he can expect given his old man looks. He would not be told that he's great already and just needs to present himself well and perhaps get a haircut.

I do hand his ass to him, every time he complains about how he'll be alone forever. He refuses to even look at women in their 30s, even though he is pudgy and balding. And no, all men are NOT hard wired to only be attracted to women in their 20s.

What are you blathering about? Who says this? I can't think of anyone who thinks women don't care about physical attraction. Why do you even care about dating "double standards" if you're married?
