Is this where I allude to the magnum condoms for my magnum dong?

- "And yet he was not good enough to marry." Says who? I didn't see that come from her - did YOU not think he was good enough to marry? Was he not your type? She said nothing about her interest in marrying this guy in the first place. In fact, based on her previous posts, she sounds pretty content with her life as it is. I know this might be hard to swallow, but not all women desire marriage. And if they once did, they can damn sure change their mind.

- "You think you are proving us wrong. You are just proving us right." Uhh, my guy, does she really think that she's proving you wrong? I heard her share a single experience of a dude she recently dated who was tall and hot in response to someone else making a crack that women are entitled to tall, ripped millionaires because Disney taught them to be. I didn't hear her b/tch about him nor sing his praise. Offering a single experience in response to an offshoot snide comment doesn't sound like much of a case for/against the premise in the OP that you are fighting so valiantly to prove as correct - for women, anyway. Misogyny aside, of course.

Speaking of women, tell me more about a woman's social value and what a woman must do once she is over 35. Please! I really love it when someone feels entitled to defines another's worth - an entire gender's worth in this case - as if they are some sort of ****ing prodigy. That burden must be so hard for you. And yet you still have the time to perpetuate a really harmful double standard that only women are required to stay hot as they age, just so they can snag a good man like you! Because what would our poor lives be without a big strong man to give us worth?! You are just so smart, you know that? I'm sure that your wisdom far exceeds the ever-growing bald spot you hide so stealthily with a baseball hat or the very sexy c-pap machine that's required of you to sleep at night.

Would someone toss me a towel? I'm about to snail trail right off my couch with these guys - WHEW!


Quite the reaction here. A lot to unpack.

1. Don't you have a thumb that looks like a toe or something similar?
2. Biology is innate and solid. That includes men being able to define what they like/want based off of biological urges.
3. Women DO hit the wall way before men do, so naturally, men have staying power and more long-term value. Again, this is a biological function of propagation of the species.
4. Male pattern baldness and ED aside; there are methods to deflect from these afflictions - money and personality. Women don't have the privilege of either so they must cling to youthful appearance as their saving grace. As time waits for no one, there is no guarantee that this has more value than a man's ability to divert attention from their own biological tells.

Also… these are realities. Learn to live with them or become what you hope to ward off.


Stop perpetuating biological facts

Are you actually trying to find somebody who takes viagra?


No. As a 42 year old divorced fat female without kids, I am trying to focus on the appropriate age group as previously instructed by my educated male peers.

I have a quite vivid memory of [something you posted but I don't want to embarrass you by bringing it up] but it still pleases me to consider.

However, I think we would be BREAKING THE RULES ASSIGNED BY THE LORD OF GENDER POLITICS if I enjoyed that.

I also remember this. She posted a picture of it years ago. I think she said it looks like it does because she lets her dogs chew on it all the time or something like that.

Plus trying to find a woman with no kids by this age is hard in most urban areas. Not saying kids are a deal breaker, but also, they kinda are for most. Even if they won't admit it.

For every woman with a kid, there too exists a man with a kid who probably didn't step up to take on 50/50 custody of his own child and therefore the woman is left to raise the child AND support her household while Weekend Dad gets to do whatever the hell he wants. So maybe reconsider the single woman who has a child bc she is probably a pretty capable badass and a victim of circumstance to the man who dumped his responsibility onto somebody else (her).


What about a man with a dog? I have full custody

Will get roasted by some but I believe many will know this as well - seen too many times:

1. Mom wants to use kids a pawn to screw over ex
2. Claims time with dad is not good for kids
3. Mom fights for sole custody even though dad is good father and willing to fully co-parent
4. Mom goes crazy anytime kids say positive things about dad, or, heaven forbid, are close to dad
5. Mom tries everything to estrange kids from father
6. Mom then plays victim and *****es with friends about how father doesn't help and she has to be a single parent with all the burden.

Yes, there are many deadbeat dads, but lots of dads get screwed over by vengeful ex using kids as pawns.

Disclaimer: never divorced, have kids, 25 years married with successful wife.

This is 100000% accurate. To a freaking T.

I am not a divorce lawyer, but I have had to be involved in a number of divorces for clients on the business side as part of my law practice. In EVERY SINGLE ONE of them, the wife and her divorce lawyer went all in on points 1 through 3 that you listed. Tried to make it look like the dad is a terrible and "emotionally abusive" parent and should have limited possession of the kids. Like "he got really angry and through the remote control one time when the baby was nearby" or "he told our son that he wasn't acting like a man" or some bull**** like that. It's always made-up allegations of emotional abuse by the wife, because made-up allegations of physical abuse are too easy to disprove with empirical evidence or lack thereof.

I can think of one where my client fought all the way through trial and got expanded standard possession, which is like 47%, but the wife still had the right to designate the kids' primary residence. But in almost all of these cases, my clients (who were the husbands) ended up throwing up their hands and basically saying "fine, I love the kids and I want to be involved, but have it your way. Life is too short." This is very common. Women are so emotional that they can't see even 5 years down the road when they are going to bearing the entire burden of raising the kids just because they wanted so bad to stick it to their husbands during the divorce. There are some deadbeat dads, but in my experience there are many more vindictive, angry women.
