I believe that most men now understand that dating events are a waste of time no matter what sort of man you are, if you are one of the bottom 90% in attractiveness, you are only there to be ignored or mocked, and if you are the top 10%, you have better options than been swamped by desperate wall-bangers and single mothers.

Fact 1: Men date to procreate.

Fact 2: Women over 40 can't procreate.

Fact 3: Dating events are divided into age groups due to social norms.

Put those facts together and you've got your answer.

Ask a successful attractive man over 40 "Do you want to hang out with a load of women your age with baggage who want your money and your commitment, or do you want to meet fun and sexy women instead?"

• Women want men with options. Men who have options can go on Tinder. And men who have extremely high level of options (like male celebrities) have women throwing themselves at men.

These women are Cukoo for cocoa puffs. Do they actually think that high status men are going to show up to "date" a bunch of 40 something women when these high status single 40 something men can bang gorgeous women as young as their mid 20's? Lol.

No high status men will show up to a dating event unless it is to restock his harem and even then, most high status men will not come.

• For most average status men, these events are a waste. These women have this implicit assumption that they are the prize and men are somehow beneath them. Sorry but a bunch of old women who are past the age of fertility are not the "prize".

Why would 40 something men want these women? For the men that don't have kids, they will prefer younger women so they can have kids.

For the divorced men, they will either me happy being single after being financially wrecked by a divorce. Why would these men further risk losing 50% of their remaining pension and retirement savings and assets for a woman who can't even give them biological kids?

Many of these women have teenage kids who you as the step father will be expected to pay for. These women also have past relationship baggage which they will take out on you. They will take out the anger they have for their past relationships with men on you because you are a man and feminism tells them that women have a right to be collectively angry with men.

Men know that many of these 40 something women had loving caring boyfriends/husbands in the past they cheated on or dumped or treated poorly. They also know many of these women took advantage of men financially and as such, they are disgusted by these women.

Further, despite the media claiming women hit their sexual peak in their 40's (lol), these women have low to non existent sex drives. So why would men show up to a dating event with a bunch of entitled, rude, cruel, financially predatory, sexless women?

Women need to understand: men do not enjoy your company. They tolerate it. They tolerate it for 2 reasons: one is to have biological children and the other is to have sex with you. And 40 something women can neither birth your biological kids nor can they be good sexual partners.

What are our thoughts?

Our thoughts are this: you women must be slow learners.

Your late teens and 20s were the time when you had the power. Men would chase you, because you had potential. Even if you were mid (which you are, otherwise you would not still be on the market), you were getting attention from guys.

Here's the thing: the tables turn. It's hard for men to get lad in their teens and 20s and easy for women. After about 38, the tables have well and truly turned - its now easier for men to get laid and harder for women.

And it just gets worse as you travel down the time line. After 40 it really heats up - when I was 42, I recall it being like a free buffet - the chicks were thirsty. It was like shooting fish in a barrel. And this carries well into our 50s.

The simple answer (that you will not process) is that you left it too late. Men wise up, get laid more easily in our 30s - 50s, lose interest in the drama in our 60s and are happily retired in our 70s.

The answer is this: you blew it.

Maybe they think they won't get value for time and money?

Its that simple. Offer something attainable and worthwhile that they want and they will buy in.

M'lady slyly avoids directly criticizing men ("Hey, I'm just asking the question"), but don't be fooled. She and her sistas would reflexively tag any man attending these events as a needy loser with few options. They might pretend to interact with him, but only to CONFIRM their unearned illusion of superiority.

Men (all of them, not just men "with options") are smart enough to avoid being the plaything that gives these women a five-second dopamine hit. Imagine having to BUY A TICKET for that honor!

There has to be some business opportunity here of making fake dating events where you charge women some amount and pretend to charge the men more. Of course no men will actually sign up, but instead you hire gay rent boys to act as straight men for the night with the agenda for them to have an open recruitment for gigalo-ing. IOW, the women who want to be seen going home with the hottest guys will have to pay the most. (I'm assuming that rent boys have no problem sleeping with older women since to them all women are equally unappealing so they may as well get paid the most.)

In any case, there has to be some way to monetize these loser women.

If 100 men showed up to a singles event with 100 women, how many of those men would receive the interest of those women?

It wouldn't even be remotely close to a 1-to1 pairing. Most of the men would like most of the women and most of the women would like few, if any, of the men

The vast majority of the men would leave empty handed and a few men would walk away with multiple numbers

There is no point in the vast majority of the male attendees to go through the humiliation ritual imposed by women and the handful of men who could go and clean up don't need to go to a singles event in the first place. They attract women everywhere they go

If even confronted with this reality, and even if OP mentally accepted it, she would not like the overwhelming majority of men there and could never change her nature anyway.

Men either go where the fruits or borne for them or they go their own way.
