Guy is an arrogant man baby with a restraining order in his past. He can wield a scalpel but not a spatula? Come on.

Pascal continues to grow on me. The tighty whities were distracting, but did you see what he was doing? Steaming his own clothes. Pascal can do laundry, he’d just rather pay someone else to do it. I hate laundry myself. I also think for Pascal there is an element of having the means to outsource when he grew up in poverty. He seems popular with the other guys and I suspect he’s getting a lot of encouragement to ham it up and quite the edit. Pascal would never make a life with Joan. She’s too basic for him.

Jordan seems very grounded and kind. I hope he sees what a shallow and self centered person Joan seems to be.

Jonathon never had a chance. Joan does not strike me as wanting minor step children, and I’d be surprised if she would date an AA man.

Keith was a great guy, but he’s not super fit. Joan was never going to choose him.

Mark is quiet and projects an older vibe. I’m not saying he’s decrepit at all, but I suspect Joan perceives him as less desirable. He also didn’t send her a message that she’s the moon and the stars. And I think she really wants that.

I think Joan has plenty of money left, because her husband was never sentenced. Criminal liability ceases with death, so no fines were ever paid. I’ve decided I really don’t like Joan. Her comments in the podcast were too much. If she has a silent belief that her husband was innocent, fine. But don’t bring up money and how hard you worked. That is just not a good look. It’s understandable that her husband of 32 years and the father of her children is the love of her life, but does she have any actual personality? IDK. I just feel pretty over Joan.

Like most pp, I think she will go with Chok and it will end badly.

Great analysis of the men.

He’s very handsome and in great shape. Assuming they are both financially stable they can both attract someone much younger and prettier than Joan.

This is the elephant in the room. No attractive, well-off 60 year old man like Chock truly wants a 61 year old woman. Pascal is significantly older at 69, so I could see him being ok with Joan's age. Maybe. But yeah -- I thought of this issue the moment they decided to do a Golden Bachelorette. No way would they find a mansion full of senior citizen men who are attractive enough for this show who are all going to be truly interested in a 61 year old woman.

I didn't know Trista was 51, but it makes sense.

When they were talking, I thought Trista looked so much better -- natural is better. And if you are going to do a little nip and tuck, make it a LITTLE nip/tuck.

Trista did look great. I had no idea she was in her 50s. Is her marriage the only one from the franchise that has lasted?
