while men place more importance on good looks

Good looks, sure. But does she share my conservative cultural values? Is she easy to get along with? Do we have "chemistry"?

And most importantly, can she cook?

[Free Vulcan]

Considering what I went thru with my last girlfriend, I believe this.

I’m sure she wants me to mke her feel like a woman.

Here, wash my clothes...

[Tax-chick]

I have an older, more attractive partner. We’ve been married almost 22 years.

[Jack Hammer]

Older... more attractive...?

Here I am, gals.

Well, older anyway...

The joke is Clooney plays for the other team. Gaydar.

Instinctive preferences for material stability and security become less important, physical attractiveness becomes more important

A major flaw (omission) in the article. Just because a woman's financially independent does not automatically make her more desirable to men. Men, at least those who aren't dead beat parasites, will still use the same criteria in choosing women. So the woman can be as picky as she wants, but she isn't going anywhere unless the man she is interested in, the supposedly older attractive type, is attracted to her. And in most cases he won't. These older men are still chasing the younger attractive women.

The headline says: "High-Earning Women ‘want Older, More Attractive Partners."

The article says: "We think this suggests greater financial independence gives women more confidence in partner choices, and attracts them to powerful, attractive older men."

Difference? The word "powerful."

It's bad enough to have to admit the obvious, that women chase money. So you have to victimize them for doing it - why, they just lacked "confidence," that's all.

But what do they want when they have the "confidence" of lots of money?

Power.

Their own? No no no... through a man.

Oops, can't have THAT out, either.

So, lemme see... I know - take it out of the headline.

Hypocrisy ain't just a river in Egypt.

[Tanniker Smith]

I thought they wanted young, hot studs? Boy, you just can’t trust reality television anymore.

[Perdogg]

I wonder jow much govt money this study got.

High-Earning Women ‘want Older, More Attractive Partners'

I'm old, but I'm also butt ugly. It's a good thing Mrs Bear is cool with that!
