Hi,
I’ve been thinking about where to post your comment, because it’s very interesting and I think our readers would like it, but it’s very long for a comment. Would it be ok with you if I cut it back and posted it in the “what’s your formerly” section? Steph

Hi,
I would say any attempt to generalize, like all male….. all female…., is just plain wrong. May be you can say, all female whom I dated or know are materialistic bitches. But then may be you should consider change of context. I mean go to the library and try to meet some girls there, or how is it about workplace.
Dont know. Most comments from guys, who approove BB here sound very frustrated. I am sure it is based on real negative experience. So I feel with you :). But may be an attempt to vary this “meet new folks” context could increase your hapiness.
And I am 35. I dont know if I was ever hot in my 20s and had power and so on. But I never felt this way. I was rather insecure, introvert and had a lot of issues with socializing. That all strongly improved with being older. So speaking for me: I am happier with 35 than with 25.

Sorry for mistakes. Engl is not my first language.

You are all forgetting something. What about those of us who were never hot, even in our youth? What about those of us who never had enough money to be materialistic?
Because I was dirt poor and funny looking in my late teens and early twenties, I learned to work for everything. I was never handed anything, and I sure as hell never broke any hearts or started any wars. According to BB I have never contributed to society and apparently never will.

Helen of Troy had the face that launched a thousand ships. She never actually did anything in life except cheat on her husband and live the perpetual life of a spoiled princess. Living a self indulgent life off the labor of others. Stirring up nations to war and bloodshed.

Fast forward to 2010 and the female archetype has not improved a whit. When you get old and ugly think of it as a blessing. For the first time in your life the world ceases to revolve around your petty selfishness, and you can discover what it’s like to be human.

After much contemplation, decades of observing life and observing the ins-and-outs of society, human relations and hearing a horde of comments about male/female relationships I concluded that the typical USA-based female is a daffy ding-a-ling that is extremely self-centered, horrendously materialistic, irrational, overly emotion-laden, lacking in logical thinking abilities and unworthy of a decent, honest, honorable male.

Thus I shun the female of the species and advise them to adopt a cat from the local animal shelter. Kitty will really appreciate it and the fur face can put up with the female’s inanities that repel me to the point I will gladly settle for a solo life rather than tolerate the mind- and gut-wrenching near-endless tripe that so often comes with interacting with the American female.

I believe a growing number of American males are opting for a female-less life due to the MANY negatives in females perceived by me and many males.

Lambaste away, girls.

Opinions are admittedly subjective in nature but perhaps there are fine reasons for I and other males to possess these views.

A typical female response to my criticisms is to lash out at me tossing the same oft-heard negatives that merely add credence to my beliefs/observations.

What I seldom hear/read is a “thank you” for removing myself from the male-eligibility-pool so that NO female ever wastes anymore than a moment’s time attempting to attract me.

Oh, yes. Females often attempt to draw my attention. It is so obvious. Has been since an early age.

But as easy as it is to note the attempt to garner my attention it is just as easy to fend off the female. Viewing every female as a potential threat to my freedom, my wealth, my mental health, as a general threat to all I hold dear makes it easy to shun the female.

But do the self-centered materialistic dames appreciate a male that makes it obvious he does not want her attention?

Well, from what I read in responses to what I write if the dames do not get what they want when they want it then the one now kow-towing to the female is obviously scum.

Bwa hah hah hah hah hah!!!!!!!!!!

Such childish behavior!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grab that, girls.

Kitty will appreciate it. Mush more than the typical human female appreciates a decent human male.

As ye reap(ed) so shall ye sow!!!!!!!!!!

As old age overwhelms you and alone within your abode you sigh about what could have been…….. remember your actions in youth.

Sad it may be for the few, too few females actually worthy of a decent guy. Your “sisters” simply made taking a risk with any female too great.

Now scamper off and hug your fur face and be thankful that at least one living creature can tolerate thee….. though not that it is a critter of far less brain capacity than your own is the critter willing to accept you.

Meeeow

I have to agree with BB. Women tend to use their body to get what they want, socially and financially. Once they get old, their only asset is gone. They can no longer contribute productively to society. My ex wife is a good example. She now sits around collecting alimony and watching ridiculous talk shows all day in her mother’s basement. She’s been single for 2 years and has not even applied for a job. She has always gotten everything she wanted just for looking pretty. Guess what cupcake? You wont be young forever. Heck, one day in your forties you might even run out of alimony and have to get a job and lift a finger for yourself.

Toast? Screw being toast. I eat toast for breakfast. Formerlies are more like eggs benedict or some other equally delicious yet perplexing (at least in my kitchen) breakfast dish. Toast is great, but being a formerly is way better than being toast.

I spent my teens and most of my twenties being relatively hot but never trusting it. Power? Only if spending hours dissecting every little comment in the hopes of figuring out if some guy was really interested in me (personality, brains, quirks, etc) or just wanted to get in my pants, tossing in bed unable to sleep because I was too busy wondering what I’d done wrong if another guy didn’t call back, or making up excuse not to share clothes with my “closest” girlfriends because I feared judgement on anything from the name on the label to the size.

My thirties, on the other hand, have (thus far) been spent traveling around the country, embracing the best job ever (being a mom), loving the most wonderful husband I ever could have asked for, paying attention to and forming opinions about the world around me, laughing at my pre-formerly self, and never once passing up dessert. I haven’t yet done everything I want to do in life, but that’s okay. The game isn’t over. It’s just beginning.

I’ve always liked older women…always. My wife just turned 41 in June and she is hotter than she ever was. Not just because of her exterior beauty but because she is a really good person. Perhaps qualifying the value of a woman based solely on her exterior apperance is what has motived his rant….

I don’t agree with BB on his sentiments at all. Ladies, DON’T take his perspective to heart….He speaks for a few bitter men in this world.

Where can I submit a pic of my super hot wife?

Sounds like he had a bad experience with one of those women. Mabey he should open his eyes and realize he is putting all women in one catagory. Obsess much!

Stephanie, I read your article, saw your now and “former” pictures, and I am not hitting on you, but your current pic shows that you are way hotter now than 20 Years ago!! Take it as a compliment.. like a fine bottle of wine just getting tastier as it gets older!! Take care and good luck to you in your future endeavors!!
