Intolerance and Ignorance on The Dating Sites

I belong to several dating sites, using one by far the most since the price is better than most (hey! Even on-the-market-seasoned-citizens must be frugal.)
A few things that have surprised me:

1) Most (but not all) the nice-looking women live in Florida or Texas. Must be the heat; causes them to shed clothing and get a tan.

2) Because these sites typically have members from all over the country, the chances that “The One” will be next door are very slim and very random. I think it is a conspiracy to keep people subscribing without interruption.

3) The nicest looking women are offended if you tell them that. 70’s residual I guess. Gloria Steinen and her malicious band of mal-contents had no success at convincing me the woman was not to be physically admired but was instead to be admired for her brain. Thank Heavens they failed. Women chase a lot of attributes. Men chase skirts and I confess that is simplistic. If women want men to learn only of their heart and brain perhaps they would wear burlap sacks although that will not get my attention. Some women present only photographs with no profile narrative whatsoever. So what is a guy to learn from that? Tough to discover much of the intellect, no?

4) Back to the more serious headline however. We, and I mean “all of us” who have paid attention, have learned in the last ten years, the hatred progressives have for anyone who is not in lock step with them. I have yet to read on these websites, a woman say “I hate liberals.” On the other hand I read one in ten say “If you liked George Bush then we won’t get along.” This morning I read “I am allergic to Republicans.” I use none but benign four-letter words in my blog. (there were several in that sentence) But these women can go do something offensive to themselves. First hand I know that a good relationship between two high-quality people will not withstand strong political differences added to assertiveness about those difference. We parted with a great deal of mutual respect for each other in spite of the differences. Few of us like clones on the other hand none of us wants to walk on pins and needles in a relationship we hope is a "safe place." What might these women have said, had they any respect for people who do not agree with them? How about, “I am committed to liberal/progressive beliefs; I believe there are fine men who do not agree but such differences can make a relationship quite tenuous.” Wow, what a difference, eh? Lastly, the one that prompted this blog earns $200,000 per year in commercial real estate in Colorado. I think there is something wrong with that picture. This woman is a capitalist to the max in a capitalist economy and yet throws poison darts at the party which, albeit timidly, believes in the personal financial freedom to make that sort of money.

So goes life on the dating circuit in the land of the self-serving and under-educated (thanks to the public school system and leftist universities – maybe another topic one day)
