Why are women’s very first questions, how tall are you and how much money do you make?

Why is this all women care about?


It is not all women, it is you.

That is unfair, I am saying it as a woman.

However OP is also generalizing. So he is asking for it.

Why can't you provide for your kids? I can.

You’re simply meeting the wrong women.

No. They also care about your political affiliation.

Attractive and successful get beautiful women. If you don’t care about a woman being attractive then you will have more options because a lot won’t be picky about money/height.

What are the first questions you ask Op?

She said with short and average looking men, she will never have to worry about them because prettier women aren't going to go for them.


I kinda disagree with this idea that short or average men are insecure and won’t cheat. Maybe initially but then once they are successful in career and have money they gain confidence (assuming this happens) and once they have this confidence they are just as likely to cheat as a “hot” guy. Because when it comes right down to it - men are measured by power and success and not appearance.


This is problematic for men then because more and more women are achieving power and success. So if men aren't judged based on appearance what would a powerful and successful woman look for in them?

This has been answered. They look for power and success equal to or greater than theirs.

My husband happens to be tall and makes a lot of money but that's not why I'm married to him - it's because he's an excellent husband and father. It's gross that you weed out men with the assumption that they'll suck at those parts so you might as well have their paycheck.

How come men want to see pictures of me before getting to know me as a person? I'm more than just my looks and weight.

We normalize men prioritizing physical attraction yet somehow it's shallow for women to do the same.

These aren't women he has met in-person because they would be able to tell if he was tall or not. Get offline, go touch grass and a real girl.

I’ll answer your question but first I need to know how tall you are and how much money you make.

Essentially this is true for 99% of US men.

I did marry an exception who is very emotionally engaged and supportive, but he also is 6’4” and earns twice what I do.
