you're still young... and you have little or no experience
so, when you say that "men should make more money than the woman" is a discussion people have, that is not accurate... people don't discuss or have these ideas, only some idiotic inadequate people have these ideas, and they usually mess up their lives arguing about with other dumbass people who think that money is the most important factor in human relationships
so, forget about that... just don't go there, because most people... the BEST KIND of people, the people that are worth to have around and with you, they really don't care about who makes more money
now, yes... money is a factor, but is not a deciding factor, and it does not have to be reduced to the fact that just because you have a penis or a vagina, you should earn more or less money in comparison... and that if you do NOT, then you are worth less as a person
that is just stupidity that some inadequate people have and use as an excuse to sabotage their own lives, so don't do that... forget about that

I have never dated anyone who made more than I do. That women make less them men... That is not actually true. Women do not make less money then men circumstantially. I watched a statistician slaughter a feminist with facts. Basically a person who starts at a company and stays there for years makes more money then one who just started. And the statistics show this regardless of gender. Men's and women's pay where equal. The difference showed that women who stayed home to raise a family because they saw that was far more important, and then joined the working field out side the home made less because of the time frame they entered to company. This was true of any men who "role reversal" , where laid off, changed employment...
I have changed Jobs many times due to moving. So I am on the lower end of pay grade. My life is extremely simple with very little waste. So I don't care to make loads of money and devote all day to a job.
I could really care less what any woman I would date would make. Except love.
I don't discuss earnings with boyfriends :)
if he asked I Might tell.. a few have asked... but... I don't ask him.. ever...
and I don't care. And I don't go into details.
I know a few boyfriends who wouldn't care but even be happy I earned more.. and I know by the fact of how they encouraged me at certain job opportunities... even the Muslims, MODERN ones, don't mind AS LONG AS I'm not showing off, constantly talking about it (who tf does that anyway? Oh I know who)
And as long as I don't act like he is my child and can't take care if himself... offeringbubsolicited money 😆... .
It depends a lot on the woman's attitude and also the guy's own insecurity... but the woman's attitude goes a long way.
For me income amouny will never be a source of pride. But perhaps for more men it will be.
In 2018 and 2019, a lot of egos were bruised because the guys didn't like that I made more. I just hate that. My money is mine, theirs is there's. That shouldn't have anything to do with us being together aside from us being able to cover our own selves on a date or our own portion of the bills

I have dated a few women who had a net worth over a million dollars, and I have dated a retired judge. Not intimidated.
All my girlfriends supported themselves. I know that one of them made the same money as me because we worked at the same jobs in high school.
Later in life, I assume that I made more money than the rest of my girlfriends but the question of money never came up. We weren't thinking about money.
I can't imagine being intimidated by a woman who made more than me. It would only be a plus. All that matters is that we like each other enough to want to be in a committed relationship. We admire each other physically and intellectually, and have similar values, attitudes, lifestyles and goals.No, If I married a woman who makes more money than me, then I shall make more than her, and even if she didn't do a job or had a career, I shall teach her how to do so,
I want a queen who can rule in the absence of her king.
Traditionally speaking, men find difficult to stay with women (who makes more money)
Because money equals power, power and the one with power controls the relationship
Centuries of programming have made a man to be a "man" who always holds power...You should be never look at a realationship as who is the richest , you should marry or date in the view of 'for richer or poorer 'sickneas and health ' these days people make up there own vows , also there's the prenpshule agreement , you have to sign on this line , then sign on the other line ,, to me of your not willing to sign the second one first then your not really commited to making it last , the idea of a golden diamond ring was for the woman to feel save if things did go down hill , she would always have something to fall back on
Men have been and usually are taught that the only thing they really need to contribute in a relationship is financially, so it isn't uncommon for men to feel emasculated by a female partner who earns more than he does. That just means that he can't use money as a way to compensate his lack of contribution to the relationship in other ways.
Nope, I make pretty decent money, if she makes more money than me then more power to her. I have no issue with it
Not at all
Both my exes made more than me because they were older so got paid more and my business didn't have the resources it has now
The second one also had an inheritance that allowed her to shop in Cartier and Chanel as well as offer to buy me a £5,000 watchIf she earns significantly more, then I'd be wary about her spending habits.
Personally, I despise status symbols, branding and such; and I refuse to be the typical ''consumerist''.
So it is possible that our life styles and values don't match.
The mere fact that she has more does not take away from my own -well sufficient- means. ''Wealth'' does not impress me; so it can't ''intimidate'' me.No I've would never be intimidated dating a woman who thought she 'made more than me'.
But then I've never shared with any woman what my salary was, If she thought she made more than me and it made her happy why should I disabuse that what she thought was completely wrong.- s
I actually do not quite understand why a man would feel intimidated by that… he should be happy, cause then we have more money coming into our household
I've outearned both my previous boyfriends.
They didn't take it well. But they also refused to engage in any conversation about it.Dont care. When i was a young man i dated some women who had more money than me. Never gave it a second thought. But now i doubt i could find any woman who makes more than me and if i did id not be interested in a woman who was so career oriented. I like home maker girls.
No, if I marry a woman who makes more money than me, I will make more money than she does, and even if she has never worked or had a career, I will educate her how to do so; I want a queen who can govern without her king. Men have traditionally found it difficult to stay with women (who makes more money)
No never, my current partner earns more than me and that's fine as far as I'm concerned, she is financially self sufficient, just how I like it.
It's not a big deal that a girl makes more money or that she brings in more money than me I would discuss with her, what I bring in money so she knows.
Your money is your own. I don't care what you make.
Now that you mention it I never dated anyone that made more money than I did. I would not be intimidated by it.
Never had someone intimidated i made more than them
no. i don't understand what's supposed to be "intimidating" about that. good for her. i'd be happy if my future partner is financially well off.
No, I don't get intimidated by success. It's the self saboteurs, and the lazy, uninspired people that scare me.
