Default Ladies, Men don't care what degrees you have so stop mentioning it

I have lost count of the number of times I see in a women;s ad that she has her bachelor's IN.... and has her masters IN...........

Who cares?????-lol Why in the world does a man need to know about what degrees you have? All you have to say is I went to college, that's it. Now it may come up in a conversation about what your degree is in but you don't have to mention it in your ad. Ladies we are not EMPLOYERS so stop with the degree talk.

I would feel so strange stating in a profile that I have a degree in..LOL

Perhaps a better title for this thread would be "Ladies, I don't care what degrees you have so stop mentioning it" because I find it hard to believe you speak for all men.

Speak for yourself, but most men who are educated (with a degree) want to know if the woman they are interested in is educated as well and will ask her about her major too!! I guess I know to many men with degrees. Well I am in the education/human services field where most people are required to have a degree.

I care what degrees women I am interacting with have. It gives me something to talk about with them and maybe even presents some common interests. It is kind of hard to talk to people of the opposite sex if you are not interested in them, or are only interested in getting in their pants.

I said it shouldn't be in the AD, just save it for the conversation.
