As much consideration as a guy gives the cashier at Walmart.
What’s with these weird scenarios where you think the opposite sex has dramatically different standards.
I bet if the equivalent of Brad Pitt was working the register, plenty of women might sleep with him. Same if a Victoria’s Secret model was working the cash register. Nobody is getting into a relationship.
Brad Pitt might be working at wal mart but a Victoria’s Secret model would have already traded on her beauty to do something higher status.

Every single one of them expressed the desire to live in a big house in the wealthy McLean neighborhood. None of those women could afford to live there. FWIW, I live in one of those McLean 4M homes. I would have been invisible to them if I worked at Trader Joe's.

Wonder what posters here think of this and if things are equal in dc or no?
I would be curious if the author, in addition to her anecdotes, talked to 24, 34 and 44, and 64 year olds.

Men’s struggles? Tell us more.
Women do not care about men's struggles. It takes a lot of hard work and struggles to become elite in something that is worthwhile. It takes at least many years of practice and hard work just to make high school varsity teams. It takes many hours of practice and many years to become a good musician. Finally, it takes a lot of studying hours to become a good student, and hopefully one can end up at a good college. Many young men struggle to become successful in those areas. Women do not care about men's struggles to become the best version of themselves, they wait at the finish line and pick the winners. You can see this from young girls too, because I was invisible to girls in middle school; however, as a high school freshman, I was the best player on the varsity team and we won the state championship. We celebrated the championship with a video, and I was the band's frontman. The video became very popular, and all the girls in school wanted to sleep with me. Without the state championship trophy and the music video, I would have been totally invisible to girls.
Well, if women are too much for you to handle, stay single. You are not entitled to a woman who cares about your struggles. Or you can become a passport bro and bring a new wife over every 3 years ( they will become just as complicated as Anerican women right around when they get their citizenship).
As a former D1 athlete at UCLA, there were so many women in college that wanted to sleep with me because I was a popular guy on campus. I went into software sales after graduation and made a lot of money. I became a catch to many women because of my social status and money. It made me realize that women are beauty objects while men are success objects. The vast majority of women want to marry guys for a "marriage style", not love. Guys are invisible to women if they do not have looks, money or social status. YMMV.
Hardly true. Maybe you were only attracted to the striver types but I’d say that most women do not want transactional type of marriages.

That's fair. I'm sure once you were popular you weren't clamoring to take the fat, funny smart girl to prom, or the accomplished and kind girl who was skinny and tall and awkward.
Thems the breaks.

Bro, women struggle the exact same way, plus we face a culture of innate misogyny while doing it. You think we're just handed sports trophies, music awards, access to good schools and good jobs, and money?!
Women don't care more about men's struggles than their own. Men don't really seem to care about women's struggles in these areas either.

I think it's that they have self inflated egos, and think "that's women's work". Very unattractive quality. Only desperate women go for these types.
I don't know. I work in tech, and am married to a wife who graduated from Harvard. I neither cook nor clean because my wife takes care of those things. I do, however, bring home 2M/yr in salary + bonus. All of my colleagues do the same.
Safe to say that anyone of means outsources domestic work. We also hire Nannies.
Sure, for some. Others enjoy raising their kids and prefer being self sufficient.
Nobody with money. BTW, nobody enjoys changing shit diapers or dealing with throw up etc.
You can still raise your kids and outsource the shit work (literally).
Not true at all. You must live in a very little bubble if you think that's true.
