[Seinfeld] George and Jerry dating beautiful women was not unrealistic

"First we have to remember one thing, this was the 90s. A different time when gender roles were still generally traditional."

"...this was the 90s. Men were not as ripped as they are today."

"Also again this was the 90s, women of a certain age not yet married, regardless of their looks were still frowned upon."

"Remember both George and Jerry are Boomers. Not late boomers, but smack dab middle of the band boomers. So their social mores and the social mores of the women of their time would be similar where the conventionally accepted thing was to find a half decent looking employed man and try to get married."

I'm not even sure where to start! I'm pretty sure you didn't actually live as an adult in the 1990s, because your stereotypes are more applicable to the 1890s. You are way off base! Please consult an old person next time before you pass things off as facts.
