I just browsed shaadi.com for the first time in years

[californiasardar1 967]

Some observations:

- I recognize a very large number of women who had profiles on there 5-10 years ago (In many instances, their profiles appear to have the same photos ). Even when I don't recognize a photo, other profile details show that they have been searching for years. For example, there will be a 40 year old women whose profile reads "Hi there! I am 35 years old and recently moved to X to start a new job." Also, most of the profiles are of women in their mid 30s or older.

How sad and shocking! I suppose their Knight in Shining Armor still hasn't shown up.

- Women in America have updated their income cutoffs. It used to typically be "$100,000 or above" and now most profiles are "125,000 or above" or "150,000 or above". In the UK, they seem to have increased the lower cutoff more modestly from 40k pounds to 50k pounds.

- As was the case back then, they are not shy about being EXTREMELY specific about what they require, even though they are looking for a partner from within a tiny population to begin with. For example, 35 year-old women looking for guys who are 35-37, 5'2" women looking for guys who are 5'10"-6'0", women looking for men in very limited geographic areas (where very few Punjabis live), or women looking for men who have very specific occupations.

Why are you showing resentment to these groups.

If you have shown self awareness of how this group fought for their rights to gain a high tier male then you would understand.

You misogynist b1got

At 25 -30 years of age - " I want a man who looks like a male model,  with a super  personality, and who is a Doctor, Lawyer, Accountant or has his own business and who has a jet setting lifestyle"

At 30 -39 years of age - " I want a man with a good personality, handsome, a professional job and a degree who likes to travel"

At 40 years of age - " I want a man who has a personality, ok looks, has a job"

At age 45+ -" I just want a man"

I wonder if they've remained chaste during this arduous search for a male companion?

I wondered the same thing. Largely probably not, especially the ones with price tags. Probably being test driven until they can find a buyer.

They're certainly not sitting home on a Saturday night reading Sikh ithaas.

I just want a Sikh man who is religious , caring and understanding and would be fine with me wanting to be a stay at home mom in the future if i want lol. Corporate jobs add so much stress to your life. Hard to take care of children and home while working 9 to 5. I'm exhausted while working remotely and not even having to commute. Now a days its hard to run a home on single income and unless the husband earns more than average it's not really possible for women to stay at home. Even the house prices are skyrocketing. No idea what will it be like in a few years.

Yeah never got why midgets want to marry giants, when they walk together people think a farther is taking their child for a walk.

Your jokes would stand a better chance of being amusing if they were at least rooted in reality.

Nobody has ever accused me of needing to lose weight.
