You don't get out much do you?
There's good looking guys in that age group, far less than the women though. The one's that are, generally are players due to the sheer ease of getting dates with an attractive female. They aren't the type for a healthy relationship. I know a few and what they do as far as juggling women. No way in hell I'd ever fix them up with someone I know.
Like I said, even the dumpy guys in this age group (which are the majority) are picking and choosing. A guy I know met a female that we mutually knew recently and told me 'ah, she's nothing special that's for sure'. This guy's bald, at least 40 pounds over weight and a life long bachelor. This girl would've never gave him the time of day 15 years ago, but is divorced and lonely now. I couldn't really say anything, because his girlfriend that he's always trying to play around on behind her back is a very attractive woman.
It's just how things work out. To say it's not a reality, is to say that in the high school/college years guys aren't spending their life chasing after cute girls and girls for the most part have the pick of the litter.
The dynamics change. Men degenerate and women blossom more appearance wise. Men seem to become more emotionally crippled and women stronger and more independent. I guess you have to be in it, here the conversations, see the relationships etc., to get a good grasp on it. There's plenty of exceptions, but that's the general pulse of what's out there, imo.
