Where did that come from? That's just nonsense, and a little offensive, so of course, you post anonymous!!
I can't tolerate a stupid woman, just using her body to get by!! It's sad, really, because a lot of studies have shown that women are maybe a little better at math, and some sciences, when they actually engage, and work on that!
Why would you just totally disrespect yourself, and all your gender, posting this?
Yeah, maybe some shallow d-bag guys want idiot girls, but I don't think that you are like that, and I think you posted this question, hoping you are wrong, and I think you are!!
If women want to be equal, don't post stuff like this!! I love women, and I HATE how you seem so predisposed to degrade, and denigrate yourselves!! Guys don't even need to joke, or be misogynists!
Seems to me that women do it to themselves!!
What does it take for you, as women, to see how AMAZING YOU ARE, and stop putting up with all this sht, and assuming, or just agreeing, to be somehow something less than you are?
To me it was never necessary for a woman to earn an income. I have my own.
But her education definitely *could* matter.
I've always been attracted to women with a passion for something. It doesn't have to be scholarly. She could be a broke fine artist with a passion for painting, still a quality I can love. She could be a dancer, an athlete, a writer, a struggling musician, etc. She could be a historian, a scientist, a surgeon.
What matters to me is that she's passionate about a subject. That interests me.
I ended up marrying a career woman (writer, editor, and publisher), but her salary was never the point of attraction. it was her looks (she looked stunning in a dress, slim figure), her sophistication, the worldly nature she had (she loved traveling), and her passion for literature. It made for far more interesting conversations than I'm used to having.
guys only expect a girl to help him out with finances if she is ugly or fat. if a girl is really good looking they dont care about her study habits. guys dont fall for girls based on the kind of grades she makes. the fall in love with their eyes and how she makes him feel when he's around her
Because guys don't get taken care of by women financially. The vast, vast majority of women wouldn't be okay with that kind of arrangement. Guys know they're going to have to earn their own way, because they can't marry a girl with money who will be the primary breadwinner.
i guess its coz they ve insecurities... as far as the guys i know they r more insecure than girls... so they wanna seem dominant n manly... thats the interpretation i ve
Maybe they want to be in charge. Or maybe they think someone well educated wouldn't be that much into maintaining her appearance. Or that she'd be less feminine.

We earn so we can provide. We want a girl who makes us happy. If we want to have kids we want a good mother. If we can't afford to be sole provider we will be considering that, by it's a practical aspect not one that impacts is emotionally.
Men just didn't evolve to seek out good providers period. And to males intuitively, any desire by women to be with a guy who is successful seems like gold digging, like she doesn't care about him. I had to learn to see the difference between gold digging and caring about his success as an attraction factor. When we look at women her earning is not 'her' it's just something that happens to be attached to her.
As for intelligence, in theory it's not that important. Would you love your parents or children less if they were less intelligent? To us it's like that. In practice I have always dated smart women; they cared more about my intelligence so I was more successful with them.
Plus I suck at flirting with dumb women. I go double entendre heavy and they get confused and it's a disaster ;)
Tradition. Men were/are the ones expected by society to be the bread winners and need to make money to appeal to women. Which is the biggest motivating factor. There will always be those rich guys where their wealth is their entire livelihood, but honestly, for a lot of guys, they just don't really care about material things or their particular quality. As long as they have the essentials and things are functional. As Dave Chapelle said, "if men could fuck in a cardboard box, they wouldn't buy a house."
Ultimately, it just doesn't matter to us. Yes, I'm sure some guys don't want to feel like they are being outdone by their partner (male competitiveness combined with societal expectations), but in reality, not a ton of girls actually want to be with a guy that makes less than them either.
who says guys dont want a girl who can provide, but guys dont really care because money doesn't have anything to do with love. and plus girls who have it all dont care to have us, or if a guy is in a lower class and she's not she wouldn't even look at or notice him, unless it seems he has something to offer by approaching instead of her, its like jack dawson with rose dewitt bukater on titanic, she was a spoiled brat who couldnt make up her mind. and go for what she wants, jack had to knock sense into her to grow up. this is a good example of how high class women are like, even if a girl is very attractive she is still considered high class, and out of our league, and its why its better for the girl to approach the guy she wants, its always up to a girl anyways.
It's not that I don't care at all, there are just other things I value more like: beauty, common interests, sweet and pleasant disposition, similar senses of humor, modesty, low number of sexual partners, etc..
Also girls tend to gravitate towards men who are wealthier and more educated so by seeking out smarter, wealthier girls I would be wasting my time putsuing girls who would never be interested in me or respect me as a partner. It would be waste of my time and emotional energy.
I care about intelligence rather than all that, I don't think education/salary define someone's intelligence so I don't really care about it personally, if she seems smart from talking to her that's enough for me. I guess a lot of girls care about it more because men are naturally the providers and therefore education/salary/status etc all contribute to a man's ability to provide and a man of high status is more desirable as it's considered a trait of a man to be a leader.
I don't care about a woman's education, unless it's science, technology, engineering, or mathematics. Call me elitist, but we have to work way harder than some humanities major like English, English literature, art, psychology, sociology, education, etc.
And education isn't everything. I saw people who dropped out of high school who became self-taught mathematicians/computer programmers and they make bank.
Attractiveness and personality are what really matter. I prefer a beautiful, loving, and caring girl as a partner instead of an ugly/attractive, bitchy, and successful grl.
Traditionally most guys have been the breadwinner. And women have dated in their own financial bracket. So a woman who is too successful is likely to leave a guy who doesn't meet them on a financial level.
I think it's Bullshit what the other guys on hear are saying.
The only reason for not to want you making money if it's going to be a long term thing is control.
I think we want horny and hot more than women do though so maybe that sort of clouds over our judgment on other things at first. but as soon as you start talking combining finances or just living together it matters even if most guys won't say it does.
Because many have not been put into a situation where their income isn't sufficient to achieve a comfortable standard of living in addition to providing enough for retirement. Those who do not make a lot of money and live in the expensive areas tend to care about the woman's income a whole lot more.
No. What doesn't make sense is this question. I've literally never met anyone who didn't care about their partners salary or education. Ever.
Men get tiny dick syndrome when their girl earns more and is smarter. Most men would rather have a hot dumb chick who depends on their money and is too dumb to know how stupid he is. That means you need to find the smartest guy in the room.
Because in our society men have always been the providers, women just recently started to become more financially independent... plus if a girl is nice and somewhat attractive then thats what most guys usually care about
I think many of them do care. More money is more fun.
I date men who are always surprised that I own books.
I've never dated girls who are doing poorly in school, and never will.
And you're right. I certainly do want to marry an intelligent and financially competent wife. It's better for our kids and our relationship.
Cause most guys care for their own money unlike most girls who look for a sugar daddy... Or a "care taker" when they get pregnant
Because they want to have full control over you. Notice how many men prefer their wives to be a stay-home mamma? Feminism has fucked up their lives so by leaving women without any income makes women go nowhere. Then they can get back their power.
As for myself, I would prefer a woman with an education and a career. It would help with expenses and you could save more for the future.
I don't have a job and that's the main reason women don't want me.
Women having an education and a salary doesn't make a difference because I'm always paying out of my pocket, not them.
