I'm pretty sure a deal-breaker for me would be that she responded to that survey.
As Jon would say, selection bias run amok.

3 vs. 300. Sounds about right.

All those rock stars and movie stars must be extraordinarily well rounded people, to satisfy that 300 item checklist for all those millions of women.

For the single people she talks about and their expectations, I wonder how things change as a person ages.

And we all know the guys were lying about how fussy they are.

I have limited bandwidth in my plan, and have to be very stingy about what I watch. So I can't afford the squander. So I have no opinon.

How fussy can they be? They hang out with us.

They know how wealthy we are. Some of us even brag about our wealth, which I find to be in extremely poor taste.

And all this time I thought your attractiveness to women was because of your elephantine....face.

I've been married to the same fella for 36 years. If he's not Mr. Right by now, then I haven't done my job of molding him to suit me.
It's sort of like that line about teaching a man to fish, and he'll be able to eat for a lifetime.
If you teach a husband how to behave, then he'll be a good husband for a lifetime.Go ahead and prove me wrong.

Yeah, but most young women are not as smart or wise as you are...

I'll take a stab at it. I'm still not sure what the question is, but that's never stopped me yet.
I'm not at all picky. (See Jon's observation, above.) As long as he's extremely rich, handsomer than Hugh Jackman, smarter than a St. Bernard, and willing to leave me with a black Amex card while he's off pursuing his quest for the perfect mistress, preferably in foreign countries, I'm satisfied. That's all I need.

Let's see ... there's Mrs. Jolly, Mrs. George, Mrs. Mik, Rachel, M&Ms, Mrs. Mark, Mrs, Rainman ... I could go on for quite a while listing examples of smart and wise wives of y'all.

Are there opportunities to simplify? If he’s going to be off pursuing the perfect mistress somewhere else and won’t be around you, do you even need to care whether he is handsome? Heck, as long he’s away from you, do you even need to care where he is or what he’s pursuing? Really, would just the black Amex card and basically leaving you alone suffice?

Yes, but all of those ladies belong to a previous generation. Maybe they quit making that model...
