Why even post when you don't got anything to say? It's just silly when people accuse others of trolling without giving a reason why.

My views might be a bit different, but come on... They are not THAT controversial. My views would be seen as completley normal say 50 years ago. And in MANY places in the U.S my views would be normal even today.

Actually, they are not "controversial" so much as just naive, childish and sophomoric.

You clearly a very young man (at least emotionally), and need a little more time in the oven, right now you are only half-baked

Many of us have been there though, and we managed to grow up, hoping you will too

Then you're incredibly insecure, which is a HUGE turn-off to most women, especially those who earn more than you. Re-read what you wrote: "I would never pursue a more succesful woman who earns more money."

Why?

If a beautiful woman who is a millionaire shows interest in you, you just walk away because "she makes more money?"

A pathetic attitude, truly.

But if she showed intrest in me she would be pursuing me right? In that case it would be more "ok".

My issue is not really about men being with women who earns more money.

Its about men pursuing women with more money.

If a woman pursued a man with less money... That'd be alright, that would make it even and result in a balance.

But purusuing/chasing somebody with more money just gives the other person all the power over you. It's loopsided and it's not good.

Then, wouldn't a man who earns more have power over her? If we're using your criteria.

I'm having a hard time following your logic. So, if a woman earning less than a man pursued him, he'd have power over her? I don't think it's quite that cut and dry.

But for CHRIST's sake haha . EDIT: That would make it unbalanced and unfair, I didn't understand you at first. Yes he would have power over her if he earned more than her and she pursued him

If the pursuer(man) earns more money, it evens things out. Him earning more makes up for all the effort he put into pursuing her. So then it's a fair and balanced relationship.

Man earning more money and doing the pursuing = Balanced and fair

Men earning less money and doing the pursing = Loopsided and unfair and the womans favor

Woman earning more money and doing the pursuing = Balanced and fair

Woman earning less money and doing the pursuing = Loopsided and unfair in the mans favor
