Do guys get intimidated by old women who are highly attractive and successful in their careers compared to younger girls and not as career driven?

As a guy would you get intimidated by a hot older woman (early 40s) who was successful professional, as opposed to an early 30s girl who was more plain Jane and more of a mediocre career. Do guys like to be the one considered more successful than their partner in that way? Do you get intimidated if it’s the opposite or you are more equal?

No we’re no. Not the majority of us. You might have a handful of them for sure but most men aren’t. It’s more annoyance. Here’s why. If she’s become successful in her career, especially if she’s moved up the chain to almost the top or the top, chances are she’s masculine. Men usually express those types of characteristics. In order to get up to high positions you have to be disagreeable at times, speak up, speak out, say no, works many hours, etc, etc. So when it comes to dating a girl like that chances are she portrays more masculine characteristics. No man wants to go home to another “man” after he’s been put 8-12 hours a day maybe longer working. You end up butting heads. A lot of times too when women get into higher positions many of them abuse their power on men, especially if she’s lived w this mentality of the “patriarchy.” So no it’s not attractive. The men who usually end up w women like that aren’t usually masculine. They yes ma’am no ma’am type of dudes who she will eventually get tired of cause he doesn’t stand up for himself. She probably orders him around, yells at him, etc, etc. If she’s old, single, that should tell you something. That no man wanted her. Even worse if she used to be gorgeous, but she’s still single going into her 30s, that is a red flag to men. Here’s why. Most women who are gorgeous have no problem attracting men, but if the men aren’t even willing to commit despite how gorgeous she is, that tells you it’s probably her personality. Yes there may be some exceptions to the rule on this, but in most cases no men don’t want a masculine partner. Most of aren’t intimidated by her either. Women just like to tell theirselves this to cope w the fact that men don’t want her. So then you get women saying he just can’t handle a strong, independent woman. What man wants to go home to a girl he has to handle? What is she a dog? She should be able to handle herself. At the end of the day most men want to just come home to a loving wife, a peaceful wife or girlfriend whichever the case may be. I’m sure you work hard. Do you want to come home to a dude who’s going to start w his BS after working hard all day? Probably not.

Lol, no

Intimidated is not the word for it. We simply have different priorities. I'd much rather have a woman in my life that is about living life rather than measuring 🍆's with everyone. If that's what lights her up, more power to her I hope she finds what she's looking for. She's not what I'm looking for.👍

It appears that many men are intimidated by just about anything these days.

I don't care if a girl is successful or not, but I do find the attributes that typically go with that attactive. Career success isn't the most important thing to me. My happiness takes priority.

Not usually, usually I wonder if women who are starting out their careers and early 20s think that about themselves as women to women

I would not be intimated. I would respect her success with life so far.

Not intimidated... just not interested. I would rather have the younger more feminine woman.

No lmfao. Guys don't care what she does for work as long as it isn't sex work etc.
