^^ the whole less wealthy man are nice guys that women should target for lifelong happiness is a fallacy, it prevents women from effectively capitalizing on their full skill set. I mean, a lot of women concentrated career are already underpaid, let those who are willing to starve themselves top off that total comp chart.

I am a spreadsheet monkey who provides at least 3 hr of labor (chores) in house per day and to be frank it's modern slavery. You may get lucky to land a nice poor man, but you may also land a poor slaveowner.

Neither am I. Anyway... this is all laughably funny to me. You sound like you're on the outside looking in, or maybe just extremely nouveau riche and gauche. Who knows, but certainly a little embarrassingly status obsessed and hysterically unable to handle a difference of opinion. Anyway... as I said, I hope things improve mentally for you, and I mean that sincerely!

Sure, you got it all figured out. I'm set for life, no worries here

NP but I think the point from nanny's post is that these women in general have their life revolve around staying skinny and attractive, including getting surgeries and skipping meals, for a husband who is too busy to be at home by 9pm on Valentine's day (either because of too much work or other reasons). It's the whole context and I agree with the nanny. It's better to be financially independent and be with a man who will be somewhat considerate of you than be with a rich man who is too busy for you and has expectations that you are always striving to attain/keep. Obviously this is a choice. If the woman goes in to this knowing what she is going to get, good for her as long as her emotions don't get in the way.

This makes sense only if you can choose between 1) wealthy man who is too busy for you 2) less wealthy but nice man. The reality from my limited sampling is that there are a ton of poor man who think they are to good for you (inflated self perception across men is another worthy topic), and I have see my girlfriends (early 30s with professions as college professors, lobbysts, lawyers, higher up in management) land boyfriends/husbands who are both too busy for them and have the women pay more than fair share of dating expenses (the man eats more and drinks more but split the bill 50/50 regularly). My point is that, if a woman starves herself to keep her livelihood, in this case it's a wealthy man instead of a modeling agency, it does not work less effectively compared to women who grind away spreadsheets for livelihood. As long as you tune up your skills, wether it be starve or pass CFA, contribute to retirement before your skill becomes outdated and laid off, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

I’m so torn. What should I believe… a research article with thousands of empirical observations or a random anonymous crazy woman on dcum who claims she’s knows TONS of wealthy guys “simping” for whale legged IG models

Hmm. I’m going with the research article. LOL!


“ Wealthier men and people with better appearance satisfaction had stronger preferences for good looking and slender partners. Preferences varied within and between genders, and were linked to bargaining hand in the mating market”

I think this is strongly traced to age. In the recent decades, having a very slim wife was a status symbol. Now it seems to be having a thicc wife with a big booty and a small waist

It's strange that nobody else in this thread seems to be backing this assertion up. Seems to be a phenomenon only in your neck of the woods that nobody else is aware of.

Not really considering most DCUMers are middle aged DC ladies

And yet here you are, making baseless claims, right in the thick of it. This time would be better spent in a gym getting into the toned and fit shape you need to land the type of guy you want.

How are my claims baseless and what does anything that you said have to do with the age of DCUM members? Maybe your time would be better off eating some protein and trying to gain more of a butt, provided you havent aged out of the attractiveness bracket entirely.

The claim that men all want these thicc women has been debunked. The rich men I know are in families where fitness and activity are a priority, not just being skinny for skinny sake. We all ski, run, hike, eat healthily, etc. Which seems to be universally recognized and known in all the various threads on here about this topic. It's strange someone keeps starting these when its so patently false. But, dare to dream.

I’m a nanny in Beverly Hills and pretty much all the moms are skinny with fake boobs, fillers, and no job or life skills. I might just be a nanny, but at least I can support myself and don’t need a butt implant to do so. Seeing how these women have to live their lives is very sad. My boss doesn’t eat breakfast or lunch, only dinner, and has bad breath all day long from lack of food. Her computer history is on the kids iPads and sometimes I have to go in there to find old art projects the kids want to do, and I saw on Valentine’s Day she was googling vibrators. What a way to live. I’d rather be fat and have a man who loves me for who I am.

I'm sad for people who think there's something wrong with vibrators.

Nothing wrong with a vibrator but googling one at 9pm while your husband is at ‘work’ is kind of sad, but that’s the life you choose when you marry for money

My DH doesn't make a lot of money and still regularly work past 9pm. I think it's a personal actualization thing to have high sense of ownership in his chosen field (think Japanese work culture). While it's certainly not too ideal, but it's not the worst trait to have.

I work on the computer all the exercise I do is my fingers tapping, as a result I just don't feel too hungry to eat all three meals. Of course my life is sad but stuffing down three meals and getting fat won't make it less sad.

You don’t have to get fat, eating 3 meals a day. You’re actually busy, unlike the people just starving to get and keep a man

This doesn't make sense, if these men all wanted "thicc" women why are their wives starving?

Ummmm no one said they do?? Do you have reading comprehension problems? Men want skinny women. The same men will also cheat on skinny women for a new and shiny skinny woman.

My DH doesn’t. I am not fat and not skinny.
