I seem to get contacted by women on POF around my age that look 10 years older, I mean they are attractive if they didn’t have a face like a hairless scrotum.

And the worst part is that not even troweled on make-up can fill in those river beds.

And if they have a pretty face, they are FAT!

And if they look young and are not fat, they have other issues in time you will discover if you meet them.

I’m the same way too.  I’m soon to be 48 and look 10-12 years younger.  My older sister has aged very well too as did my Mother. I think it’s part genetic and part how one takes care of one’s self.  Overall, men do age better though.

I don’t do online dating myself for the reasons you mention.

Then they get old, and men look at their faces and the easel canvas is all loose and wrinkley. They get old faster by eating carbs which increase insulin production, which inhibits growth hormone production, growth hormone being the fountain of youth.

In some justice, there are females out there who actually stay in great shape, and when years go by, they still remain quite attractive. But alas, they’re gold diggin whores..the lot of them, arggggg.

Maybe Karma is real?

They don’t respect their bodies, they don’t take care of them properly, they drink tons of alcohol, do drugs, don’t eat right and ontop of that they are going to work and that is stressful which has negative physical effects. One can only imagine the damage that does to their delicate forms.

Rennie’s right on the money: Women tend to cost through their late teens and early-to-mid 20’s without considering what they’re doing to their bodies because at the time, they’re attractive to men without trying. They fake bake, they put loads of makeup on their faces, they drink/smoke/do drugs like crazy because hey, some guy is paying for it, not me. They don’t work out because men already find them attractive.

Another thing, to add to what everyone else said, is that women’s beauty is pretty much dictated by their estrogen-testosterone balance. As they get older, their bodies produce less and less estrogen and their testosterone levels (relatively) spike. This is part of why women in their late 20’s-early 40’s are so frisky (apart from trying to secure a man for resources by fertilizing an ever-dwindling number of eggs): They now have more testosterone in them, which makes them more sexually aggressive. Unfortunately, it also makes them more “manly”, which is why so many of them tend to look terrible at that age. Add to all of this that they frantically try to compensate through even more makeup and plastic surgery while still dealing with their decades-long bad habits and, well, there you go.
