43. assuming you mean harder to attain...

Thu Oct 30, 2014, 03:50 PM

Oct 2014

Since the age of 18, I've been unmarried for 23 years. For the past 12 years I've not only been single but I have had erectile dysfunction, probably associated with my diabetes and heart disease. Which has left me less than interested in doing things that require the little soldier to stand at attention.

In the 11 years I wasn't dysfunctional and too ill or too old to be in pursuit of women that wanted a partner, I had 11 different partners.

Based on a sample of one, I don't think it's too hard for a man to find partners...if a man wants a partner he can find one or a dozen.
