I am responding to the sexist and ageist attitude towards women that women’s aging is somehow different from men’s aging.

Yes, older sperm can produce offspring, but that offspring will be less biologically fit than offspring produced by younger sperm. So a woman in prime years is better off with someone +/- 3yrs her age. That’s just biology.

So older men only talking about women’s aging comes off as insecure and sexist. My posts are just a reality check.

Personally, I don’t evaluate the quality of a person by their level of attractiveness or their age. I just find that a lot of insecurities that men carry about themselves come out as sexist attitudes towards women. So yeah, sometimes you have to write a brash post to counter that sort of sentiment.
