Why so many older WF (some with children) pursue AM? Why so many older WF (some with children) pursue AM?

Can anyone explain the phenomenon behind mature WF pursuing AM partners that are in their prime? It happened to me as well so much that I had to change the age preferences settings on my dating apps-

If you are an AM dating or dated an older WF with or without kids please share your experience. I know that WF age badly and when I encounter many AMWF in public I can notice when the WF is older than the AM just by their faces.

In my personal experience they tend to be very manipulative but my experience may be different from fellow AM brothers. I don't understand why these GenX-Early Millennial WF would they seek AM when they are past their prime. Where were they back in the day when the stereotypes against AM were rampant?

And the social media algorithm doesn't help either and I know that AM can date XF on their prime but racist AI has an agenda.

The struggles and suffering of a balding Asian man The struggles and suffering of a balding Asian man

It's unfortunate that there are not many bald East Asian men... or so it seems, because the movies and media do a good job in hiding it. And so, people don't expect to see bald or balding Asian men.

They get weirded out, they ask if you're sick or something, or they straight out laugh at you... which is sad and damaging.

The chances of getting a date get reduced dramatically. Women won't bother to message you unless you have something remarkable that catches their attention, like expensive clothes, jewelry, etc. They won't accept you.

I was 26 when I first noticed a coin sized balding spot in the crown area of my head. A few years earlier, some of my friends would laugh saying that I'd soon be bald. I thought they were joking.

So, I panicked and tried hair thinning shampoos, Minoxidil products, supplements you name it... I did manage to keep some of the ever diminishing hair, while getting severe allergic reactions sometimes. But it's been a losing battle.

And now entering the 4th decade of my life, I'm thinking on giving up and embracing baldness. I don't want to risk hair transplants and Propecia that can give you terrible side effects like man breast and prostatic cancer.

I was ready to embrace baldness, with now a very visible scalp (I pretty much look bald under the sun) and yet, my family members and friends keep bringing the subject, as if they're talking about a disease that I'm not doing much to cure.

I don't know. I'm super tired at this point after 15 years. Even if I try hair transplants, I'd be perpetuating the image that Asians don't go bald, and not helping others in my situation.

Are you or have you been in the same situation? What are your opinions and suggestions?
