Ah, you’re pretending proactive = desperate. No. It feels good to be wanted by a woman, and bird in the hand. Don’t argue against taking your fate into your own hands. |
There are lots of candidates with good character, it's best to marry someone with a good character from a compatible social class. It's just as easy to find a woman of a good character with a good paycheck. It's not like virtue is a monopoly of the poor. |
You can't take fate into your own hands unless fate is willing. An unattractive woman can get proactive with you all day, and it would get her exactly nowhere. It feels much better to be wanted by someone who you want. |
The theories of the women of DCUM. That’s not what we men do. It’s best to view the world as it is. Men actually do this, that, and the third thing, not what you think is best. |
If she's so "confident" she doesn't need a man. Your sad post suggest that's the big prize in a woman's life. |
LOL, sure. You're the only man in the world whose opinion counts. As if. I'm married. My DH was very clear why he married me, and a blue collar woman would have never been considered, no matter how fun she would have been. He's a man too; his opinion matters just as much as yours. I wouldn't marry a blue collar person either. I don't know why you argue against assortative mating as if it is not clearly demonstrated all around us. |
In my long experience and observation, all things equal men far prefer shy and gentle girls over bold or talkative girls. |
As a guy you are probably right but I prefer a smart, independent woman overall. Attractive but not gorgeous is a must. |
Why? Curious about thought process. Not all blue collar people are the same just not like every Harvard grad is identical. |
I think marriage is hard enough without introducing class differences. Of course there are blue-collar people out there who have massive libraries and opera subscriptions but they are exceptions, and I'm counting on the rule. The more similar the couple, the better. |
What’s clearly demonstrated on this forum and elsewhere is a number of eternally single women who think they should be valued for reasons other than men value women for. Furthermore, the blue collar crack suggests you walk around with the same contempt for women less accomplished than yourself that we saw last week in here. The “ew, nurses only marry deadbeats” thread. |
+1 Dare I say it, classy women do not chase men. |
I'm married. I chose my husband, and he chose me in line with the rules of assortative mating. But please do continue to deny reality that contradicts your theories. I don't have contempt for blue-collar women. I just didn't want to marry one of their men. |
Now do racial differences... |
You sound like a really disgusting person. |
