True. But then you'd end up with children that just have to take care of you from childhood, which is completely unfair to them. And you won't live long enough to watch them grow up or ever get to meet your grandchildren. Not to mention that even if a man is still reproductively viable, he would still require a woman that's 50 years younger than him, which will never happen for anyone who isn't at least a millionaire.

Why would he require a woman 50 years younger?

I know a woman who had twins when she was 55 years old. And she’s an active mother.

^ Either way, bringing children to life at this age is an unjustifiable insanity. Like seriously, you would be 80 when the child is 10.

Point Being a Woman Has a Biological Clock That Kicks in Quicker Than a Man . 70 is Definately Not Ideal .. More of an Extreme Case Scenario .

So there have been at least half a dozen variations of this thread over the past year+. Let's approach the subject from another angle.

Okay, so you've made your point. Let's say it is.

What now?

Perhaps I should just give up and kill myself.

I’d rather have a friend who’s a virgin and able to work with severely autistic kids……than some schmuck who’s screwed 1,000 chicks and can’t help anybody with anything.

There's another active thread on here about folks that are happily single.

Find something that fulfills a purpose for your life?

These threads like this one here didn't seem to do you any good for a rather extended period of time.

Yes, but only one of them would be president.

The black-or-white fallacy occurs in arguments that have a disjunctive premise―that is, one that gives alternatives―when one or more alternatives is incorrectly omitted. The fallacy tries to force you to choose either black or white when gray is an available alternative.

Yep…there’s a lot of gray.

Your choices aren’t merely whether or not you kill yourself.

My choice would be to continue living, and glory in the no-bullshit progress you are making.

Seeking to point out “fallacies” doesn’t have or make much of a point. What makes you do that? What is the purpose?

You contrasted a 40-year-old virgin who can never get laid with a high-rolling player who has sex with a large number of women without considering anything between those two extremes. I felt the need to point out the problem.

I'm aware I have other options. But the problem is none of them are what I want.

All I was doing was saying I’d rather be friends with one person than with another person. I find that you over-reacted.

What separates adults from children is the understanding that they won't always get what they want.

Agreed.
Very shellfish selfish, imo.
But aren't we all? :scratch: :wink:

Not a rational solution.
How about making a reassessment based on your actual circumstance.

I was devastated when I realised I was never going to be with Claudia Schiffer. (Oh, the pain)
While it hurts me deeply (sigh), I accept the reality of the situation. :mrgreen:

BTW, you do realise you are "simply" reacting to your genetic coding, right?
And most people never get what they actually want.
Even those who seem to have it all, fame, fortune, charisma, so often fail in their amorous adventures.
Life is deeply flawed.
Such is life.

(God, I hope this thread isn't in The Haven. Damn, I hate that forum. lol)
