How many men don't want more sex? Cabum - after awhile everything gets old and routine in life no? There are so many here on SI that I think are spending tons of time here because they don't care about all those other things they did as a young person - do you realize all the time you spend here could be spent chasing after sex? I used to have a girlfriend - but now I spend lots of time online - now all I need is my marilyn monrobot! hehe Sex is OK for young people I feel Cabum - but its so much easier to read economic news and analyze the rube goldbergs in my head twisting bernanke speak around and around rather than go through all that drama with the opposite sex. Its more fun figuring this out - you actually believe you can see the method to the madness - from mises.org: But what is below will probably never be figured out and life is too short to waste your time like that no? hehe

You are making several classic mistakes of american male thinking: 1. You assume all men want a young attractive woman 2. You assume sex and childbearing are the goals of marriage. Both are great ways to ensure a marriage fails. No way I would trade my "old" wife in for a younger model, and she isn't looking over my shoulder as I type this :) She can actually think, something younger women have a problem with. She also listens, which is another thing younger women don't do very well. Most importantly, she is smart with money. Neither of us want children. What's the point? Humans are sending the planet into the toilet and don't care enough to do anything to stop it. Just look at what has been happening to the weather patterns in the last few years! The planet is going to respond by getting rid of most of us, and probably within the next 50 years. If the Bird Flu had mutated last winter, most societies would have been caught totally unprepared and would have seen their populations decimated. There were almost no societies that could have even put a dent into the natural cycle of the virus. That includes the US, which still isn't prepared. Not being a pessimist, but rather a realist. Man's future on this planet looks pretty bleak. We're all just too dumb and selfish to do the things that are needed to ensure long term survival.
