No, it's not. If you'd done your homework you'd have found what I stated is well known fact and is supported by a mountain of research. Did you even look the word up? Sheesh!

It is sad that so many men on CD are negative and whiny. It might explain why you are not in a LTR.
Some may, not many, not most. Some. As in exceptions to the rule.

Also, as I explained, a womans economic status has absolutely nothing to do with her sexual status. See "incompatible value system". Thus a horse faced woman with a PHD and muffin top may very well pair up with a heat and air conditioning service man. Yet this is still unusual since it takes more than an education to accomplish that kind of honest self assessment. Likewise a few of those blue collar men also realize that money is just a side effect of dynamic men who are charming to women.
Well said.

Riiight, because you're the world traveler and expert on what women desire. Most women don't know what makes them attracted, that's why they're usually the last person a guy should take advice from for getting women. What women *think* they want and what they *actually respond to* are often compeltely different things, and in many instances directly in contradiction with one another.
I am speaking as a woman, but hey I don't really think that is who most of the posters on here are talking to anyway. You just want to complain to each other about women. And yes Nutz, I have traveled extensively and surely know more about what women want than you do, unless you are secretly a woman too. I hope that all of you will be happy with each other because you don't want to do anything to make your chances of finding a woman better. You would just rather wallow in your misery. Have fun.
Unfortunately, gender confusion is well and strong in western society.
On that note, it seems that the misguided idea certain foolish women have of achieving career success in order to attract a man is cut from the same cloth as the belief some poor men hold that they're a manicure and a facial away from attracting women. To be fair though, the manicure approach seems to work better on average for men than the career success approach seems to work for women.
Ladies of the forum, consider the following: men generally care less about your money and your career accomplishments than you care about their looks and the softness of their skin. Given how little many of you claim to care about such superficial traits, take a moment to ponder the implications of this reality, and re-evalute your priorities.
Hi Rubik's Cube,
I would like to clarify my position that I think women should do what makes them happy. Go ahead and have a career. I am simply doing a public service for these beauties to inform them that it is a poor selling point in the love market.
Those are the dumbest comments I've ever seen. Here, have a blue ribbon. PUnk
JSizzle225,
That is two worthless insults in a row. I am thinking tight fitting pink latex shorts for you until you provide some content. At least we could check for the bulge to verify you are not a steer.

Completely agree on this. But women with good incomes are not rejecting men with same or lesser incomes, if those men have other qualities they want. The women are not all ugly, as feminism has afforded opportunities to essentially all women, so the selection is wide. This freedom allows women to be with a wider range of men too, including men who would not be able to provide on their income alone, but who are desirable in other areas.
That is the issue that has some men so riled up. They not only lack in monetary success but other areas which they fail to acknowledge. There is no moving forward from that state of denial.

Absolutely agree. However, it's long been my contention that only a woman who's jaw is more square than the Marlboro Man's could truly derive happiness from a "career". Many women don't seem to understand what makes them happy until it's too late.

We don't work to impress men. We work so that we can contribute to household, have lives outside of housework and childcare, and be able to rely on ourselves for our own futures. Given the near-constant harangue about alimony and spending money on women, I don't see what the problem with our working is. The uneducated wife with no job skills at home baking you pies is the one who is going to get "your" house and "your" money if you divorce.
