Have you ever seen an article about how women with children have a harder time getting dates?

9. Actually given I work around women all the time,

I hear all those complaints. One women, my age actually composed a unintentionally hilarious 'do not date' list though by hard earned personal experiences.
Lets see-I'll try to remember as much as I can--has to have a job, with no history of extended joblessness, has to own own house or have a stable place to live, no excess baggage-- like more than one teenager he's still paying child support for for, no one paying child support to two (or more) different women. No 'crazy' ex- wives, oh, No deadbeat Dads either. No drinkers to excess, no one in a 12 step program, no one who has been in prison, no bikers. No couch potatoes. (My friend loves to dance)

There was more, but that's off the top of my head.

Another women I know is getting remarried--after 25 years of being single. She refused to compromise her values, never felt like she needed a relationship for fulfillment and focused on working and raising her kids.

I have a single male friend who won't date what he doesn't consider 'age appropriate' which in his case is mid 40's to mid fifties. On the other hand, I work with a younger woman who marries a man 20 years her senior. He tends to treat her like a child in certain ways

I think it's hard out there. I know both men and women who have made fools out of themselves and each other. Society wise, it's my guess women have it rougher. It would be interesting to find an article
