But somehow it's okay for a 41 year old man to say he's looking for a 20 to 28 year old single shapely slender female, blonde hair, blue eyes who wants to start a family and it's okay. I usually laugh out loud at those. Yeah, here you go honey, he's twenty years older than you, probably has a beer gut and two ex wives, but he wants to father your children. Yummmmm.
Imagine if the personal ad instead read "41 year old female looking for 20 to 28 year old good looking male, blue eyes, blonde hair, to father my children." That wouldn't fly either.
Double standards abound out there in the single and looking world. If you're a 30+ single female, you can either spend most of your time and effort trying to weed out the married men, alcoholics, guys with twenty three tattoos and Northern Idaho arms fanatics, or you can get a big dog. I prefer sleeping with the dog. She farts in bed, steals the covers and occasionally pushes me off the bed. I do not however have to pick her dirty underwear up off the bathroom floor, listen to her whine about how I don't cook like her mother or wait for her to come home at 2am after The Roadhouse kicks her out for slapping a waitress on the butt.
