definitely agree about the ghetto thing. if your an average income white guy your screwed. living in delta/surrey is a lost cause, as it's mainly east indian women and though some are extremely hot, they will not date white guys because their culture is still so regimented. same with richmond or other areas where asians congregate. rare to find an asian girl that wants a white guy. downtown is a no go as sure there's lots of white girls down there but unless you drive at least a bmw and have a bunch of bling hanging off your body, girls down there won't give you the time of day.

I think work is probably OK to look for a mate if you can avoid the gossip. At my job we all have to pass at least a criminal background check, even the temps. Hey its rough out there.

The problem here is that you're reciprocating the same behavior that those women do. You guys need "extremely hot" girls, and those girls want wealthy men. I don't know about you guys, but there are a lot of nice pretty girls that will date any type of guy. But it seems like the pretty girls are being shoved aside for the supermodels, and ironically the supermodels are stepping over the average guys...it's a vicious cycle, lol...and you guys probably don't even realize it :p

But I have to agree with the guys about the article...those women are delusional.

And out of all the posts made on this site by guys laughing at avg or slightly above/below avg women's looks, how many are made by guys who are definitly not lookers themselves?
Women care less about looks than men so we're more likely to see a guy who is average or even below average looking with a woman who is more attractive. These are not young women (mid twenties) in that picture but for a 47 year old, the one in the middle looks above average to me, at least in that picture.

But some of the guys on here who poon do so because they can pay to sleep with women who rate higher in the looks dept than those they normally date. I suspect that makes it harder for them to have normal relationships as perception can become a bit skewed.

"Fox has an endearing, girl-next-door vibe: Zooey Deschanel with a healthy scoop of irreverent wench"

Soooo.... from OP, "Fox" is the one at the left side of the pic. And is compared to Zooey Deschanel? Are you fucking kidding me? More like Tina Fey + 50lbs.

Here is Zooey Deschanel...


Perhaps the ladies of Vancouver have slightly inflated egos, and aren't quite in tune with reality?

If a lady described herself as "Zooey Deschanel with a healthy scoop of irreverent wench", Ms Fox in original pic showed up, I would let her know exactly what I thought about her false advertising... Christ, her thighs are bigger than Zooey's waist!
You nailed dead on Flanders....and I can totally relate as I tried the dating thing with sites such as lavalife and POF and holf fuck there are a lot of women in Calgary that are not only delusional but also in total self denial...an "average body" usually means she is overweight....a "few extra pounds" usually mean she is pretty fat....ad if a gal says she is a BBW it means she is morbidly obese.

Average build today is not the same as it was 30 years ago since more and more people are overweight...men and women. I see guys in suits every day and these average built guys who look sort of normal in dress clothes are pretty scary looking shirtless and in board shorts playing beach volleyball. I would think it goes both ways but these pudgy 30 year old guys have decent looking wives. It's funny to hear one of them talk about his wifes post baby weight. I have to bite my lip pretty hard.
