You're taking stereotypes and projecting them onto all (or most) women.

Yes, I am. Because a stereotype is usually based on a fundamental truth. That is why it is a stereotype; it's a generalization that 'generally speaking' is true.

Sheesh! Why do you even bother if this is such a universal truth?

It may come as a surprise, but intelligent, mature women look for a HELL of a lot more in a guy than his looks and wallet.

Sure, let's look around us. How many rich men do you notice with dumpy, fat wives? How many rock stars are in relationships with unattractive women? I don't make the rules, I just report what I see with my own eyes. And typically, the attractive women want to be around men they perceive to be wealthy and powerful. Consider Bill Clinton and his list of conquests. Is Bill Clinton in any way remarkably attractive, or is the power and wealth he commands?

You think Clinton's conquests are attractive?! And as for all those questions, turn them around and switch the genders.

Most sentient women past their mid-20s have gotten over the "bad boys" and gravitate to real men.

Good point. After these women have 'had their fun', but now realize that their looks are on the decline, and gravity has come into play; opt to settle for the 'good guy' they wouldn't have given a second though to a few years earlier .... gee, thanks.

ROFLMCO! You *really* think that women in their mid-20s are on the decline, lookswise? Is your name Woody Allen? R Kelly?

And just what do you have to offer -- besides your obvious charm -- to women, that you can be so picky and refer to women in their mid-20s as over the hill, in terms of looks? And have you always been so mature and deep in terms of what you look for in a woman?

Not all of them, but the appeal of a willing 20-something year old to a 50+ year old is there. If you take a list of his conquests while Gov. of Arkansas, they include former Miss Ark, various playboy models and actresses.

Ummm, your sentence I was replying to is this: "Most sentient women past their mid-20s have gotten over the "bad boys" and gravitate to real men."

So, actually the answer is "Yes, after the mid-20's women generally lose thier 'cuteness' and 'perkiness'". Gravity is a harsh mistress.

And just what do you have to offer -- besides your obvious charm -- to women, that you can be so picky and refer to women in their mid-20s ....

now you are just plain attacking. My points are that "Good guys finish last", because they are the scraps that are finally picked up when the attractive women find that they haven't snagged the rich husband. If it were otherwise, hard working guys would be snatched up, over the alpha-males. The fact remains that women go after the alpha-male, and the alpha-male is not a nice guy. They tend to be aggressive, arrogant, pushy and self-centered. More examples? Mick Jagger, David Bowie, or reverse the point Nicole Smith, Pamela Anderson. Consider members of just about any band. Are the girls after them because these are just darn nice boys?
