[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A better question is "what are you teaching your daughters to attract and keep a husband who is a big earner and good provider?" Men earning over $200K in the DC area are the "gold standard" in terms of husband-material. They represent the 98th percentile of the male population. If your daughter is in the middle of the bell curve in terms of looks, height, weight, etc, how on earth do you possibly think she's going to attract a suitor that is at the extreme far right end of their own repestive curve? To attract and wed an above-average husband like that, a young woman MUST be above-average herself. Simply being "attractive" isn't enough. Being in shape, isn't enough. Being educated, isn't enough. There are SCORES of attractive, thin, educated women in this area for every potential trophy husband. If you want your daughter to marry a 98th percentile man, she needs to be equally impressive herself. That means stunning looks. Not just cute, not just beautiful, but stunning. Same for weight. "Average", just will not do. She needs to be model-thin, but at the same time, large breasted. Classic Barbie Doll type shape, and taller than average. Her level of fitness needs to be cross-fit instructor good, too. She should speak at least three languages ages, two fluently, and have an Ivy undergrad background. And she needs to be HIGHLY skilled sexually. She needs to be able to perform like a porn star. Nothing should be beyond her. All these elements are what separate "average" young women from those who can land a 98th percentile husband. Average women marry average men. Period. Above average men won't marry average women. They'll date them. They'll have sex with them. They'll amuse themselves with them. But they will NOT marry them. If you want more for your daughter than an average husband, you need to shape her into something well above average herself. This post will cause some anger, but there's nothing in it that isn't true. [/quote] This is so ridiculous I don't even know where to begin. #1, 200K isn't any sort of "gold standard", I make close to this and my career is pretty average. A woman of stunning model good looks won't find a 200K drone remotely interesting. #2, men with real wealth, not the 200K/year office dwellers, but real wealth, will likely marry women of equal wealth. Their looks will be irrelevant as long as they pass the cute, not-disfigured bar. Wealthy men may amuse themselves with stunningly beautiful women but are more likely to marry their social and professional peers. There are a lot more stunningly beautiful women than wealthy men in this world. If you don't believe me, look at the NY Times wedding announcement pages, and see if women in these photos are stunning. They aren't. They are just born into the same social circle as their wealthy husbands. The #1 tip to marry a wealthy husband is to be born and raised in the wealthy circles. Then marrying wealth will be normal to you. Trump/Kushner is an example of such a match, no matter what you think of their politics. The next-best tip is to be, professionally and socially, what you expect your husband to be. Then meeting and procreating will be natural to you. This explains the double-lawyer, the WB/IMF couples. Easy. [/quote]
