[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would love to see actual data on this sort of thing. DC does not have as big a reputation for gold digging though I see it happen.

How do we define it, anyway? Is there an age difference threshold? Does the guy have to be already married? A dad? Does the gold digger have to be below a certain income threshold/education? Does it count only if they get married or can she just be a mistress?

Obviously, I'm giving this way too much thought.[/quote]

A gold-digger is generally defined as a woman (of any age really, but generally one younger than the man) who [i]opportunistically[/i] seeks out a wealthy, established, connected, or influential man (he need not be married, although he usually is) [i]primarily[/i] for the advantages, opportunities, privileges and material wealth that an association with that man can provide her.  A gold-digger might have certain education, status, wealth, connections, and influence in her won right, but not nearly as much as that of the man she seeks to associate with.[/quote]

So, we're talking about women who pursue relationships with the intention "marrying up"? Sounds like a lot of folks. My dear wife is so noble that no one could ever accuse her of gold digging when she landed me. And, to my credit, I have crafted a lifestyle that will assure that no woman with the intention of gold digging would ever be tempted to steal me away from her. [/quote]
