I do think having a “good” career makes a woman less attractive. Work changes you, and a career lawyer is going to be a lot less feminine for it.
If I were divorced or widowed, I’d be looking for a woman my age who was a teacher, nurse, or other degreed position but not at an equal level of my salary. Not one who has been single up to this point
A woman in sales, Dr, or lawyer would be a strong no-go.

Oh also men can create kids until they aren't double barreling anymore.
Technically true, but male fertility also decreases significantly with age. Once a man is over 45, the average time to pregnancy is 5x longer than it is for a younger man, even if his partner is under 25 (5 months vs over 2 years). The kids also have a higher chance of autism & schizophrenia.

Could have eggs frozen, could adopt, could get knocked up abruptly in the next year or two it's not like she's 50
The issue isn’t really whether they can have kids, but whether they should at that age. It’s doing a disservice to yourself and to the kids.

No man over 45 actually wants to start or add to their family.

There are other ways of becoming a parent without giving birth.

Adoption is a thing, baw.

Not to mention that adoption is not even remotely as easy as y’all believe, especially if you want to adopt an infant/newborn.
Family friend went that route and it basically consisted of waiting, getting a call in the middle of the night randomly, and being told “there is a baby being born, if you want it say so now”.
They had to immediately drive to get the child.
Adoption is a fantastic option, but babies are not the cohort in need of adoption.
There isn’t a glut of babies to adopt out there.

I believe it
those are the dice you roll if you’re in your 40s and have a younger wife. She’s probably going to want kids. I had a baby in my late 30s with a husband over 45. I’m grateful our son is healthy and smart, and we love him more than anything. I also highly recommend people have kids while they’re young if at all possible. It sure as hell doesn’t get easier with age.

To some of you guys on the dating scene, LeaseBrown our OT famously skilled driver is looking better and better without hard liquor goggles.
At least she can drive the kids to school with her unique driving skills.
She can beat up any bullies that goes after the kids and can be a better bully than the bullies in middle & High School.
She works bringing in money.
That is a hard package to beat right there.

IVF success rate declines with age as well.
Under age 35 44.5%
Ages 35-37 32.4%
Ages 38-40 20.2%
Ages 41-42 9.6%
Over age 42 2.9%
This is simply the reality of biology, something LIBERALS try to reject for some reason.
The core of leftism is self deceit. They lie to themselves on a daily basis. Men with penises can be women, etc. They deny reality.

Yep. This is what the “adopt” and “frozen eggs” people don’t get. Fine, you’re able to have a kid. Do you have the energy and stamina to raise one properly in your 40s and 50s compared to parents in their 20s and early 30s?

But it’s a dating profile. If the options to select are, want kids or don’t want kids, I’m guessing if you select you want kids, than you are open to your partner already having kids from a previous relationship.
If you select you don’t want kids, it probably eliminates a large section of guys in their 40’s on dating apps.

I'm 41 with 15 and 17 year old boys. Unfortunately I'm single again and trying to date. I meet pretty much all of the requirements of most of the women on dating apps these days. The problem is most women in my dating pool are early 30ish and want kids or my age and have a couple toddlers in tow. I'm ready to buy a boat or an RV and frick off for 10 or so years until my kids start having grandkids that I can spoil.
Posted on 1/9/24 at 7:12 am to Bjorn Cyborg
Men in her age group are going to be in their mid-40’s. No one in that group wants kids at this point. They prob already have them and raised them. This woman is unrealistic, like most on dating apps, and will never meet someone until she has reasonable expectations. I hope she likes dating 32 year old guys

Most of the people that are trying to say “but they can have kids/IFV/adopt” or arguing the probability of issues from a geriatric pregnancy are ignoring the part where the venn diagram of men they want to raise children with and the men that would raise children with them are sharing a couple of molecules at best.

success rate of IVF, and it isn’t exactly wonderful either.

People go into this believing it is a perfect procedure.
And it is also expensive as frick. A buddy of mine and his wife were trying to get pregnant that way (she has some female issues), and it's something like $10-13K every single time you try. I couldn't believe that. And there's obviously no guarantee that it will even remotely work. I think they tried 2-3 times and one time she was actually able to become pregnant, but then lost the baby several weeks later.

Imagine being over 40, being told your whole life that freezing your eggs is a viable option and to put it off, then realizing that it will cost $13-15k an attempt with a sub-10% success rate.
That sounds horrible.
