Because that sounds highly unattractive. Im a successful entrepreneur and have been asked out by lady doctors, ceos, accountants, bankers... not a lawyer yet ha but i dont find any of them dateable.
As a successful man i have my own money so... their success and finances mean nothing to me. What i see is a hard working woman who is too busy to do woman things like keep house or focus on children. So I've given some of these women chances but a 20 year old waitress is far more compatible with what im looking for.
What man is a successful woman a good match for? Well im not totally sure but id imagine a much older man who doesn't want kids or is desperate to have kids. Or a younger broke man who desires to be a house husband. Im just thinking practically here so dont get all offended. Im a successful man and my match is someone young and underemployed. So go figure a successful woman would practically be a match for the same thing. The issue arises when thats not usually what women want.
It's more that if things go south, there is the concern that she will use the system to screw him over. I wouldn't date a female police officer or prosecutor, although I'd date a female lawyer who isn't a prosecutor.
Divorce and child custody lol.
I mean many women plan out their divorce a year or to before instigating it, and that's women who aren't lawyers.

It could be that she just isn't in the position to meet very many men who are non-lawyers. On the other hand, it could be people's pre-conceived notions about lawyers.
Now that I think of it, I did go on a date once with a woman who was a lawyer. That was over 15 years ago. She was awful and you had to "support" anything that you said. I had to "convince" her that my job in the medical industry was "necessary for society". No thank you.
However I would certainly NOT project that on to all lawyers. If I met one today who I felt compatible with with, I would consider dating her!
If it's because she's a lawyer (so many other possibilities, but lets say that's the reason), some guys might assume SHE has no interest in them (especially if she doesn't approach), because many women want a guy "equal" or "better" than them when it comes to career. OR, might assume her life is too busy and doesn't have time for a relationship?
My advice to your friend would be for her to approach guys she's interested in. And if she does or has with no luck, don't "give up", keep trying. Women need to do more approaching!
what kind of lawyer? Always wanted to try it. But depends on the woman and what kind of law she practices. If she defends dangerous felons then no. Certain civil things no. Other civil ones YES PLEASE!
Prosecutor yea depending. Personal injury YES!!! A divorce one YES but depends. If she likes slamming low life spouse's I just wanna squeeze her. I have hear stories.
Such as a woman divorce lawyer winning a guy everything and marrying him in the end. And they are really happy too... REALLY HAPPY. If I could get my hands on someone like that. Let me tell you. That woman would know how much I appreciated her.
Love cops. Never tried a lawyer but would love to.
Why she dont date lawyer guys? Might be same answer.
I personally see laws give power and advantage to the one who knows them vs who doesn't.
So i dont want to put myself at disadvantage just cus she's hot, its stupid.
I will go for next hot chick who's not lawyer.
Hope that answers your question
I wouldn't do that in America either. If you don't have the weapons to return fire, ie being a lawyer, just think how nasty that might become.
Lawyers have a reputation for being argumentative and combative people. I'm a (soon-to-be) lawyer and I can definitely confirm that to be true. I wouldn't want to date another lawyer either.
As a non-lawyer I dated a lawyer back in my 20's. It was odd though, she was easily the most immature girlfriend I had since high school.
u No most guys don't care about the women's profession when it comes to dating as u can't are someone for a break up or bad date lol
No not necessarily but it can be intimidating from a guy´s point if she makes more than you because that makes many guys insecure.
I’m not extremely picky, but I would never date a lawyer or politician. Just seems it would be more trouble and drama than it’s worth.
Maybe men are intimidated by her and think they won't be enough for her as she makes more money than them.
I'd say it's because a lot of men are intimidated and assume she won't date down.
Also a partner who enjoys arguing to the point of doing it professionally might be a bit tiresome.
I would be afraid of a lawsuit if things went sideways.
I've dated a couple, one was even a divorce lawyer.
It is normal for most of the people you meet to be at work so most of the people she meets are presumably lawyers or law clerks.
Women are already known for not losing arguments, always having to be right and arguing for sport. Why the fuck would a non-lawyer bring that shit at a professional level into his home?
I would be worried about what she would do to me in a divorce lol.
Women are dangerous; lawyers are dangerous. Put the two together and you have a serious problem.
I'll take a chance on her I'm a drummer.
They are headache...
