most men who have deep pockets can sense a gold digger a mile away, but they would never complain, because they know exactly what they're after, and is more than willing to give. in general, its really no different than prostitution.
i assume, guys that complain aren't so financially fortunate
any lets be honest here, many many women won't date a guy unless he is financially stable or secure. cal lit what you want (ambition, character, potential, whatever), these women are measuring his worth as a man by his financial resources. can you blame them? certainly not if they have the looks, body, and personality to be worth their weight in gold.
See - that right there is not really accurate. Wanting someone who enjoys what he does, doesn't spend money he doesn't have, doesn't have excessive debt (as in credit card and such - I don't mean student loans or a mortgage payment), isn't a big gambler, etc. - is NOT measuring a man's worth by his financial resources. It most certainly is about character. I would expect that most men would have similar standards in women.
you know, as I sit here biting into my apple, I wonder if I've ever thought about gold-digging women.
And the answer to that is no, I haven't. Mostly because I don't have that much money for them to spend, and even more important, I think the vast majority of women-at least in 'Merica since I've never lived anywhere else, aren't looking for men specifically with lots of money. Most women think deeper than a man's pocket books.

true dat.
just like beautiful woman who knows she has all eyes on here, so do wealthy men.
but there are also many frugal men who are wealthy. one of my best friends will stay at a super8 motel instead of the hilton he can readily afford. interestingly, he did his best to avoid women he didn't deem had the values to deal with his financial status as he would like (grew up with little). and he ended up marrying a middle class woman from latin america. total sweetheart.
I think men who complain about women being gold diggers fall into two broad categories:
1) Guys who date incredibly shallow and materialistic women, never recognizing that they themselves fall into that category. Then they act shocked and butthurt when the materialism rises to the surface.
2) Guys who are lazy and unambitious and take umbrage when their S/Os get tired of the wolf being at the door all the time.

well good try but we are saying slightly different things. there is clearly a difference between a man who lives within his means and a man who is "financially secure and stable". if that were the case, why don't women just describe as you stated above. or are we using code words?
be honest, is a man more attractive if he has greater wealth?
take the same joe with and without wealth, i'm certain almost all women will take joe with wealth.
just like guys, take the same "nice personality" jane with and without her looks, and you know the answer to that one.... what's the shame in admitted that?

Many women will say money/looks doesn't matter, and that personalty is priority number one. That's true, because being financially successful/responsible with money is part of a mans personality. lol

Men want woman who are driven and who have goals just as much as women want men who are driven. Simple
