Does American culture encourage gold digging?

[Anonymous]

Telling women that they should aim for nothing else in life but become a housewife. Telling men their self worth should be entirely defined by their income and assets. Americans having a culture of acceptance for gold digging. If she is hot enough and wants to be with me, who cares if she is just a gold digger?

What propaganda did you read? That is so flipped saying women are nothing if we don't have a salary to provide for us and our family!

No guys want a house wife any more! They want the wild women in bed and to just play video games while sitting on the couch lazy!

Just the black women gold dog with white guys and for good reason and safety. Well also the Mexican girls too who marry for a passport and run.

No, I think it more encourages the opposite.

Kind of yeah. But let's not pretend like places like the middle east are so evolved. The United States is a capitalist country. And so in that sense the UNDERLYING message is everyone has a price. To quote Wu-Tang Clan, "Cash Rules Everything Around Me". "CREAM get the money, dolla dolla bill y'all". But regardless right is still right and wrong is still wrong whether the price is a dollar or millions.

Starting with the prom, when girls are encouraged to doll up and get their beau (actually, the beau's parents) to shell out all kinds of caish for a limosine, etc. That teaches a bird she's a commodity as long as she remains a bird, i. e., beautiful or at least, pretty enough to attract men.

What's OF, Jon-Boy?

Yes we need a cultural shift. Men's worth is not entirely their money and women's not entirely their holes.

Banning OF would be a good start.

What American culture do you live in? I don't see women being told to become a housewife, and most of those I know who were told that are over 80 now.

Yes it does, many of the first settlers in the USA were gold diggers.

No, it does the opposite. It encourages women to prioritize their career head of their family.

Not really, that's common across the world.

I wouldn't marry a useless housewife.
