Is it weird I’m eliminating single mothers at 32?

I’m a man and I’m honestly still a virgin. This alone is why I’m saying no to single mothers. The only reason I’m making this post is because all of my male friends are telling me that I’m severely shrinking my pool, and that it’s already small because of inexperience.

I’m wondering why I should settle for less when I want kids who are my own one day, which probably won’t happen if the woman already has kids. The only reason I’m posting this is because literally every man in my real life said to go for single mothers, and women surprisingly didn’t. Perfect gender divide and honestly I see the women’s point better than the men because it’s very hard to be happy when settling for anything less than what you want in life. Otherwise I’d still be climbing the ladder at retail.

What does r/Life think of this?
