Do you really want to date someone who is partying? Who hasn't made a bunch of mistakes yet?
Yes to both.
Fair enough.

There are women who have grown children. There are women who are older but have no children. There are women in their 20s with no children. Why does it have to be a teenager?
It doesn't.
Cool! Just sounded like it reading this.

People are judged and you have to either get on with it or don't do it. Moaning about it makes it look like you target young women.
So, it's okay to judge men, but it's not okay to judge women, right? I don't target 19 year olds.
Women are judged too. Women are judged for far more than men. We are judged on our hairiness, our mothering skills. Judged by other women. Every single day I feel judged. Women are judged by who they date too. When they have kids. How many kids they have. We are silently judged and have to guess what the expressions and whisperings are about. Or hope that a friend is decent enough to tell us if the other friends are bitching about you.
The comments in this thread makes it sound like you want a very young adult. Not sure if that's just because you are trying to explain something and it's almost over explaining.
Are Trump's comments about women and minorities acceptable? If not, why is it okay to demonize men?
I'm not American and don't really follow the politics. I get the jist but I wouldn't vote either if they wanted to be prime minister here to be honest.
That's not true, it's actually easier to start a relationship with women over 30. Unfortunately, it's not easy to find good women who are over 26.
OUCH!!
What is a "good" woman????
It is these kinds of comments that are drawing negative attention to you.
I feel like my opinion is true. Younger people are more willing to explore than perhaps more older already burned people. My mum is single and I don't really think she will date again. I hope she does. My mother in law is also alone and I know she won't date again.
Maybe the older older generations... I don't know... But I know younger people are more intelligent than us. They look less intelligent because they are more reckless. But I remember being that age. I know I personally have lost intelligence. I've also lost a lot of the intuitive learning ability I had. It would be silly to say younger people are less intelligent. They might have less wisdom that comes with experience though. Less learned intellect. But not less intelligence. But maybe that's just my opinion.
assuming the ratio of men to women is relatively similar, that would imply that either women between 18 and 29 are dating men older than 29 or men are dating multiple women. About two women per male? Right?? I might be wrong.
That's logical that finding middle aged women without kids might be more difficult. Might be where you are looking too. I will assume you are a great man?
What makes women "good" and older women not good? Apart from children? What are the statistics on single women without children? I know women my age who don't have kids who are single.
Society has always had an opinion on everything. Humans are sooo judgemental. We all think we know better and are better but generally, I think a lot of us are the same. (Obviously not all) But generally we want and need the same things. People have always commented on age gaps that I can think of. Date who you want as long as it is legal and consensual. If you know you aren't doing anything wrong then who cares what society thinks. I do not believe that the media stops young women fancying older maturer guys. What is the data on that? I strongly believe you are making assumptions. Females are generally not attracted to males their age at a younger age unless they seem mature. Maturity is sexy. I believe there is a psychological component In relation to being attracted to security. And someone who we would expect to be loyal. At least from my perspective. I don't believe media can have a drastic effect on hormones and generations of genetic adaption to be attracted to security and stability. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. But at least in my generation, this was what I thought was the general consensus. Maybe these younger ones are a different breed if things have really changed that much.
Edit: I lost a bunch of quotes. Assume I am replying to each thing you say doubting Thomas.
