I'll agree with a lot of the sentiments here.
I think a few other factors ring true about this:
(1) The pussification of the younger generation. A woman who is 25 will most likely be curbed by a man who is 40 and not her age. Right now a 21 year old is more likely to have grown up through a metrosexual phase/effeminate phase/technologically emo phase than men at an older age. It's almost a lost art.. the art of being a man. And when the numbers of "men" that act like insecure women keep growing for sub-25 year olds, all of those men above that age that didn't grow up around all of that seem all the more better. Just think about it, years ago we didn't have to deal with email/Facebook/caller ID/etc... so we actually had to deal with the real world and not the technology. If a woman was going to flake, she had to flake with EFFORT. Now, they can flake just by breathing. Older men know the signs, the younger ones post in the Discussion forum asking what it means.
(2) Economy. I'd hate to bring this in the discussion, but I think there might be a shift that will happen or is happening. Pretty soon, it won't be that their marrying for money... I think there will be a shift in what "security" means for a woman. I've seen it where a 20-something will date a 40 year old because the financial security is better than no financial security. It doesn't matter if they are rich or not, they have a job.
(3) Divorce. A lot of men in their 40's/50's are divorced by that time. They are going through their "mid life crisis" and have opened their eyes to the truth. Marriage isn't what it's cracked up to be. I don't see why a person in their early 40's, in shape, and high quality would want someone his age. If you're going to do it all over again, you might as well look for someone a lot younger who isn't past their expiration date.
(4) Women love to shame men who date younger, but in reality, if they can get away with it, they'd prefer someone older. I keep hearing that in general, most men feel comfortable within their own skin after 35. I'm at that point at age 30, but I know it's going to get better... but I didn't get married and have kids.
(5) If you're older than 35 and never gotten married... some women might actually see that as a challenge. I've seen it happen twice. I knew two men who just didn't believe in marriage and wanted to be eternal George Clooney's. What's funny is that if I met a woman who had never gotten married by age 35 and looked good, I would wonder what the hell happened. But a woman views a man like that as "the great white catch". They wanted to be the ones to wrangle him in.
There are so many more reasons why, but I don't want to spend all day here. And from what I see here, looks like things are on the up and up for me within the next two decades.
PS: I have some grey now... I'd never dye that. It actually drives some women nuts that I have a nice streak of silver throughout my dark head of hair.
101% right....
I am defiantly enjoying getting older - its far easier. I don't chase after it anymore - it chase after me, frequently! Its kind of weird in away. I spent many years of my earlier life chasing after women with moderate success. Better than lots of guys, but no DJ. But now I am the pursued not the pursuer anymore. I have gone from a barren dry desert with few waterholes to huge oasis with the fruit literally falling of the trees at my feet. Life is strange.
I have to admit one thing, I didn't realise I was alpha male until about 40. Of course, I have heard of one, but never made the connection. When I did read about being an alpha male, a light went on inside my head - that's me.
Since then I am alpha male, walk, talk and act like one. I had lots of the traits, but not made the connection. This couple with my gained wisdom and one near death experience changed my life for ever - they say life begins at 40 - it did for me.
The truth - women don't want metrosexual/effeminate males - its been written may times here, but men just don't get it. They spend there lives licking up to women, practicing lines, routines, spending a fortune on dates, but women don't want them. Yes, they use them, but they really want is a real man. Took me forty years to see the light, but that was my training, my road to enlightenment. When a women cannot get a real man, they will 'use' a metrosexual /effeminate AFC, and milk him to death both financially and physically with little reward - sex on Saturday night if your lucky. AFC's are knacked by 40 or 50 and often die before retirement age. Look at the mortality rates if you don't believe me.
Take a walk down any busy main street or around a mall - look at the couples. How many males, especially the married ones do you see that are really happy and walking around with smile on their faces? Hardly any - most are as miserable as sin. These are the AFC's of this world. Down trodden by women. The guy with the genuine smile on his face will be an alpha male - and why is he smiling? Simple, he can have nearly any women he wants and probably just had sex, when he wanted, just before he whet out too. And women can spot guys who are having regular sex, apparently they smell of sex to a women.
I work in an office full of metrosexual / effeminate young males, it's funny as they use to think I am the old man with grey hair that sits in the corner with my comfy slippers and a pipe. They go out 'gaming' most weekends in packs and with little or no success. They didn't use to ask my advice as I was 'old' on 47 at the time, but really old to them. One day it was a leaving do, so for fun they invited me to a club, with the sole purpose of having a laugh at my expense. However, by the end of the evening, it was me that had the last laugh and my respect status at work by these young AFCs has gone through the roof - I not the old man any more, I m called 'Don Juan'.
Why, you might ask.... Well, after nearly an hour of watching them standing around the dance floor stalking their prey, and making several pathetic attempts to chat up women, they had got no where. I found their 'moves' highly amusing, and at one point, one of them actually accused me of spoiling their chances with my age and grey hair. Enough was enough. The tears were rolling down my face with laughing. So, I moved away slight to give them a 'better' chance. Of course, within a minute of moving I was approached by a leggy thirty something brunette that had been casting over the shoulder looks at me since the minute I had arrived in the place. She moved in close, kino me, chatted for a bit, and even offered to buy me a drink - but I gracefully declined. She said some other time perhaps and lifted my hand and wrote her number on it...... women are better gamers than us lads by miles.
Minutes later, I was accidentally 'bumped' into by a little blonde as I returned from the toilet, which ended up in a lengthy conversation with her flirting with me like mad (how I resisted those lip licks I will never know). Finally on the way back to my work colleagues, I was literally dragged on the dance floor by a very pretty girl, who turned out to be 23, and tried to kiss me hard twice on the dance floor, and was ready to get a taxi home with me.... I managed to escape from her and headed back to the boys, who were standing looking at me with their mouths open and totally speechless. I said you either got or you haven't hehehehe Next second, I got a text from my wife on my phone asking me to rush home as she was hot, wet and horny. I let them all see my text, bid my farewells and headed home to my hot wife.
Next Monday morning at the office was equally as funny - you could cut the atmosphere with a knife. They all looked at me for ages, seeing me in a new light. Eventually they came over and called me 'Don Juan'. Then they had to ask what was my 'game', how did I get all those women all over to me. I smiled and said I simply did nothing at all. They gamed me. And because I am older, mature, fit, well dressed grey haired guy, that didn't stand around the edge of the dance floor with 'desperate' tattooed on my forehead, staking every female in the place, I looked cool, relaxed and confident, the traits of an alpha male, and that's what every women wants. You lot made it easier for me by acting like a bunch typical AFCs. But you have wrinkles, grey hair and dress like a bit like a gentleman, they replied. Doesn't matter, I replied, that's what women want... Anyway, as for hot sex last weekend: 47 year old grey hair wrinkly three, AFCs nil !! I sit in this corner with a smile on my face all the time because I have sex often and you lot don't....
The moral of this story is women of all ages want us oldie not pink shirt wear metrosexual/effeminate AFCs.
Just realised that have written loads, well that's it, I have a life and love in the real world....
Gone.....
