Can someone explain to me women's obsession with celebrities?

[massb]

My girlfriend thinks her saying she wants to marry vince Vaughn or eminem is normal and that they should be her hall pass. Celebrities are normal people just with money. And always wants to be at the front row at concerts. Should i be upset or shouldn't I? How would you feel?

I should be upset

I shouldn't be

""And always wants to be at the front row at concerts""

Why would you spend all this money so she can be more happy the be so close to the musician than she is happy that you bought her the front row tickets?

First time she talked like this, you didn't check her. You've failed to train her and so now she being disrespectful.

In addition to money, celebrities have fame that makes them obtain a higher hierarchical position, so in this specific case, what is attractive is status.

Yes thats very true

I will never understand it. It is just weird to me. I can understand admiring the skills of a musician, but anything beyond that, and it just gets very strange indeed.

Don’t be upset. It’s a fantasy and not reality. The day to day reality is she chooses to be with you. Let her enjoy that form of entertainment and ask if she wants to dress as a celeb couple for Halloween to show her you are secure in your own value

[massb]

Yes i agree but thats also because she doesn't have the opportunity to be with them

[BarryLiverstone]

Ok let’s play this out. She had the opportunity to be with one of her hall passes. What happens then?

the explanation is simple. hypergamy is the reason for women's obsession over celebrities

[massb]

For real

[MementoMori777]

I wouldn't be happy, I hope there's many women that don't idolize celebrities

[massb]

I feel like most do, you see how many women go on stage at concerts and how they throw themselves at celebrities

[massb]

[massb]
