I am doing online dating

[Warpy]

64. It's worldwide, not just in the US

I remember reading an article about China's government in the late 70s exhorting men to marry, complaining they wanted a chef in the kitchen, a movie star in appearance, with education only slightly less than theirs, plus no mind of her own and an ability to have only male children.

It's not all that different from the US male's list, and it seems the more mediocre the man, the longer the list is. Let's not forget the constantly whining, self proclaimed "nice guy" who thinks all women are self absorbed and mean because the prettiest ones aren't falling all over him while he viciously rejects the women who are on his level of looks and accomplishment. I found the Chinese government's complaint to be oddly familiar.

I have friends who do the online thing and say that whenever they sign up for a service, they delete everything for about 3 days because any new listing brings all the losers out of the woodwork. Some of them have successful social lives with men they found online, so I guess that's why people keep at it.

So good luck, just be prepared to wade through horny grandpas on Viagra, married men looking for a toy, men who want to be easy riders, "nice guys," and perverts to find the truly good ones who are still out there.
