hink new Orleans has plenty of men who make more than enough money... just not more than enough for these type of women to be stay at home moms in an expensive home who wear yoga pants all day and hit the Starbucks every morning in their range rovers after dropping off the kids.
Also, I agree with the previous post that if a woman is in her 30s and single, there is usually a reason.

The women “of your generation” were whores too. Nothing’s changed. Maybe they’re just not so secretive about it with social media etc etc.
Not trying to argue but no they werent.q Women nowadays are so different. They are openly and proudly promiscuous. Back in my younger years most women protected their reputation and would never behave so shamelessly as todays girls.
Women nowadays aggressively pursue men, sleep with random dudes, do the friends with benefits thing and give themselves way too easily. Most have no real self respect or discretion.

When was your “younger days?”
I’m sorry, but this has never changed. Ever.
You must have been married very early and didn’t get out much

There is so much damn talent in NOLA it should be illegal.
If you are single and have a legit career the sky is the limit.

My observations over the past couple decades, not necessarily about marriage but dating, which leads to marriage. I have observed that the very younger males have no social skills.
A attractive young lady I know is about to graduate from college. She is extremely smart and personable, though a little shy socially at first. She walked in fashion shows as a model. She has never actually been asked out on a date (like we used to do in the olden days). The young men seem to be content playing video games, or partying and settling for the easy and slutty girls they can order up on a social app. They are unable to just say hello or participate in an actual conversation. Texting is not conversation. She has been whistled at and catcalled on the street and on campus. "Hey baby, give me your digits!" or "You got an arse like crazy!" are not asking for a date.
Correction: One man actually asked her - he was in his mid-30s and divorced and his idea of a first date was an invitation to go to his place for dinner...
And it does not seem to be limited to that generation. I also know a beautiful professional woman in her late 30s who seems to have no prospects. If I was in her age range I would first in line.

All the girls I grew up with that moved to New Orleans are in their upper 40’s and single. They moved there because it was trendy after Katrina. But I’m the mean time all they are concerned with is letting everyone know that they are going to festivals every weekend while eating PO boys, gumbo, king cake, and fried seafood platters. Between their age, lifestyle, and weight gain its nearly impossible that they will ever marry a man.

They’re also a LOT easier to talk to than the girls in BR.

If this has been your experience, it is because those who aren't have been perceptive enough to avoid you like the plague.

NOLA has a lot more transplants that have had to make a new life and find new social circles outside of the people they grew up with. There’s not many single, childless people under 40 in BR, and most of them grew up in or around BR. Since they’ve always had their old clique to fall back on, they never had to be open-minded to meeting new people, so they keep their bitch shields up. NOLA women, even the locals, are generally more adventurous and open to take a chance at striking up a conversation with a random dude at a bar, concert, or festival. This is partially due to the public party culture of the city and the fact that they had to step outside their comfort zone to live there in the first place. BR women are more skeptical of guys outside of their social circle because they never had to leave their clique for anything.
Laffy girls are somewhere in between in my experience. They’re a lot less reserved than BR girls and more willing to take chances on flings, but they’re VERY choosey about dating seriously outside their station. Lafayette’s society scene is very rigid and insular. If you’re not in the club, you’re not going to be invited. Women who grew up in that club will face a lot of social pressure against seriously dating guys outside the club.

Definitely. A great deal of the men I've seen with lots of money are married to smart, caring women who were never looking to be a stay at home wife in the first place.. even if they ended up doing that eventually.
I know if I was a man making good money, I would not be attracted to someone who shows signs of expecting that even if I would be okay with them staying home eventually. There's a difference in it happening organically because it makes sense vs. someone you're dating expecting that.

I think he’s more implying that women who are 6’s and better are essentially being corralled into harems by the level 9 dudes who have no interest in settling down because 6’s and up keep offering consequence-free sex. The 9 may eventually settle down with an 8 or 9, but the 6’s and 7’s are left lonely because they grew accustomed to the attention of 9’s and no longer will entertain 6’s or 7’s of the opposite sex. The 6 and 7 men just sorta check out and play fortnite and fap to internet porn.

Ah. That makes sense. Get used to attractive men, hard to go back to the normies
Kinda like a couple of my male friends who got really lucky and dated a super hot woman early on, which spoiled them and set their expectations way too high.

Yep. I have the same problem. I haven’t had many relationships, but the ones I have had were WAY above my weight class. Part of that is because I never settled, but now, I struggle because I’m spoiled, and I’m just not in the league to entice the women I’m attracted to (skinny, i.e. NOT fat girls who don’t have kids) and my clique doesn’t exactly introduce me to quality, non-trashy women.
