Because feminism tells them they they will age like wine instead of like milk, and that they can put off their role until they feel like it.

They got lied to. Unless they have amazing genetics statistically men will not give them them more attention than in their 20's.

We "glow up," somehow I'm more attractive in my early 30's than I ever was in my teens/twenties. I don't have an explanation for it, it happened to other women I know that haven't had kids yet as well, not that it's the reason just an interesting coincidence.

Yes, and I'm also aware it's an incredibly low effort/IQ name.

I'll give you an upvote because I know you're presenting your perspective in good faith and I've seen women experience what you're talking about.
My hypothetical explanation is that usually these women have finally mastered the skill set of attractiveness--personal fashion, health, hygiene, etc.
My understanding is that there's no reason young women can't master these skills other than sex negative messaging from both puritans and feminists.
Nobody is more fertile at 35 than they are at 25, and men evolved for millions is years to tellthe difference. shrug There's just no way that the same "glow-up" skills applied to a younger body wouldn't be even more effective. We need to stop lying to young women.

I have more money now to spend on the things that make people attractive, while someone who is married/had kids is investing less time/money on those things which makes it appear that we without kids are aging better. If I had money in my early twenties I probably would've been beautiful, you're absolutely right. I just realized this, please kill me now.

One possible answer is that in her 30's its entirely possible that she has attained some career sucess and might well have a respectable income.
If a guy was more interested in wealth and lifestyle than having children, a 35 year old reasonably attractive registered nurse practitioner with a $90K income might look like a more attractive deal than a 20 year old smoking hot Starbucks barista who is sure a talent scout is going to "discover her."
