It is not always senseless, and those who take issue with it, again, simply don't find it convenient. I can assure you my guy is not "funding" a new lifestyle. I work, pay my bills, take care of myself. He is an enhancement to my life, he's not replacing it. We go to the same restaurants I went to before I met him, when I was paying my own check. I still do when he's not in town. Women get to be whatever they want? So do some men (note I said "some"). I treat mine with the utmost respect. I chose him because he is successful and stable and that is important to me and there is nothing wrong with valuing this.

That's the crux of my issue with women today. You chicks 60 years ago use to shoot guns so you could protect yourself, you made good food from scratch, you lived modestly, you also were very knowledgeable in a wide variety of things (which are now lost because spending time with your grandma is now "boring").
Back in the day like in Tombstone? My mother never knew how to shoot a gun, my grandmother didn't either. That doesn't make me less than.

I'm an excellent cook, I am knowledgable in a wide variety of things and I live within my means. Not living "modestly" doesn't make one less than either. I work hard for my money, I'm going to enjoy it. Therefore, I am not going to be with someone who can't do the same or who will cause me to not continue to enjoy what I do now.

And "back in the day", the men did all the protecting and brought home all the money. So, what you're saying is we women should be old-school, but you guys shouldn't. That just doesn't seem fair.

Fast forward today, quite frankly, many women only know the address to the nearest mall, and nail/tan salon. That's about it.
This is true. Can't argue there.

To each his own i just never understood gold digging from the sense of i could never be with somebody i have no attraction to and dont like that much just becasue they have money

WHy is having allot of money that important to some people?

Do u really think having allot of money makes all problems go away that its worth whoring yourself out?

Id rather have enough money to get by and stll do things i wanna do in life and be with somebody i love.. then again im not a women i guess were wired differently.

I would be certain of it, cause I look like some casual broke ass surfer dude.

My look doesn't scream money. Heck, it doesn't even whisper it.

Sounds like a match then.

I fully understand not EVERY woman was like what I described but MORE of you women had these skills the further back in time you go.

The women on this thread are not saying they would "***** themselves out". That is what some men are saying. Men that are new to CD and seem to be eerily similar. I also am tired of being told over and over that I need a man for money. I don't. Also, I have not called anyone any names or insulted their families. I have, however, suggested that they not date since it is clear that they dislike women.

I'll trade your 4 - 6 day a month menstruation for a life served in a silver platter any time .
We don't do the kind of work men do so we're ungrateful? I didn't realize we owed the roofers and the builders and the construction guys who are PAID to do the work they CHOOSE to do. And this is a silver platter?

I'm pretty sure it was a woman who bore you. On your knees, peasant.

Not only that, but women KILL their babies simply out of inconvenience (abortion). How more selfish can you get!? And it's ALL women across the anglosphere.

See, what Serriaaz just used is what they call a shaming tactic. Most guys fall for it because they want a womans approval.
