Real women don’t ask men for money. Their behaviour put them in a man’s budget. True/false?

Question

MrOracle · Accepted Answer

I understand what this saying is trying to say, I just don't agree with how it's worded.

A better way to say it is this: a real woman will adjust her lifestyle expectations based on the situation that her man is in, JUST AS a real man is going to work hard to raise their overall lifestyle. And here's the thing: a man who has a supportive woman will often succeed far beyond the level he might have without her - in part because he's likely to be motivated to make her life a little easier and nicer, and so he's more willing to work harder and take more (calculated) risks. It's also true that a man is far more likely to be loyal to a woman who was there helping him build his empire than to one who showed up after he'd already built it alone, with no support, and wanted all the benefits of it.

Men have no interest in oppressing women or locking them up - which is what Feminists think men want and do - rather, men want to PROTECT our women from the dangers and pressures of the world. As a metaphor, she may see a fence around her, and think he's trying to trap her, but if she looks a little closer, she'd notice that all of the defenses are pointed OUTWARDS - the fence isn't to keep her in, it's to keep the world OUT.

Just the same, a man is happy and proud to be able to provide for his woman, and men of means tend to be quite generous - but so are a lot of men with few means; they're still willing to share what little they have. All men ask is for a bit of acknowledgement and appreciation from women - but that seems almost impossible today for so many men. Whether a man is a billionaire or only makes $50,000 a year, most men would give his last dollar to his woman if he felt appreciated - and he'd be motivated to do even better tomorrow. All too often, men are told that they aren't needed, or that they're being misogynistic for wanting to provide, so is it any wonder why so many men are more reluctant to do so today?

The 2nd part is the same as the first but more demanding and with more undeserved entitlement.

I can get behind this! Good way to think about it. Receiving money from a man should be seen as a gift, a luxury. Not something that you're entitled to. And if you're a good partner, he'll gift you things. Out of affection, not because you or him feel like it needs to happen.

I find honest people don’t get Charity cause they do not ask for it. It’s the ones who brag and exaggerate their problems that get charity but they become dependent cause they don’t invest in learning new skills. So they become poor and unhelpful til their dying day.

If someone feels entitled to someone’s money. They have deeper problems.

motownplayer2000 · Answer

True. If you worth my time then I’ll do what I need too for you. This isn’t true for all men. Men do stupid shit for women. Loser moves: getting OF, paying for OF of clothes women, women nudes, or solo or couple sex on OF or any other site like that. Buying a pair of used dirty panties or socks or whatever the fuck else a woman has worn… all of that is loser mentality for a man. But goes to show men will pay for anything from and for a woman. No knock on the woman, she is getting what she wants. Good for her! The hustle is real, if she is able to secure the bag from dumbass men, go for iit. But overall, that statement is true for sensible smart men that want a woman of quality and worth.

D_Bone_Steak · Answer

Nah... real women also ask for money still though. That would be like me saying real men like to get pegged... nah man. No.

I think it's best to just accept that the vast majority of women feel entitled to a man's money and include it on their attraction scale even though they can get a job and earn their own money now.

DevilDaddi · Answer

This is true for me. If a woman that I am with is a "real" woman meaning she is treating me well then I will do things for her to an extent. I don't take care of women I'm not married to though. So she may get her nails and hair done here and there and I may help with a bill here and there. But I don't do husband level money spending for girlfriends. You want husband you gotta be a wife.

bamesjond0069 · Answer

Exactly. I have a generous amount budgeted towards daring and relationship expense but I expect a return on the investment. My girlfriend cooks cleans and just helps me in general. She's worth paying her bills to have her around. Way more benefit than hassle. But I've had some shitty girls that don't help when I need or cause trouble and I don't pay a penny towards them. Like fuck off I expect them to pay me to keep them around tbh.

Shamanspants · Answer

Real women do ask men for money. Honestly the whole "real women" and "real men" talk sounds toxic to me. Yeah sure, bad idea to marry a gold digger. But why do we have to attack her humanity just because she doesn't have her priorities straight?

Sirenboobzilla · Answer

My dad raised me better than to need to depend on any man for money if I could help it

DizzyDesii · Answer

I dont want him to spend a dime on me in general. I dont ever like feeling like i owe a person something physical/financial/emotional in return

RavVid · Answer

Women certainly do try to get money out of men. I think it is true that how they behave can put them in your budget.

boring money from anyone other than the bank is a recipe for disaster... it could lead to a ruined friendship

RangerBlue22 · Answer

Very true. Good men don’t mind helping appreciative women with this.  But it’s the entitlement is what we have an issue with.

ObscuredBeyond · Answer

Buying groceries is one thing. Being a slave-driver is something else entirely.

Tyrael · Answer

Real women don't expect men to pay their bills for them.

Juxtapose · Answer

That is so true. I am willing to be generous towards people who don't take me for granted, not that I'm rich or anything anyway.

shades777 · Answer

real women do ask for money, going on a date is asking for money, going on a trip is asking for money, you be hard pressed to find many activities she wants to do that don't involve asking for money.

Hispanic-Cool-Guy · Answer

As a grown woman she should have her own money; she's not a baby anymore.  Going around asking men for money is ridiculous unless she needs help.

exitseven · Answer

I sort of like that. I don't know how true it is but it is pretty clever

Aairs · Answer

One would hope not, but we are all looking for a home (a free bed to sleep in, and free warm veg soup).

Heolurt · Answer

False, 99.99% of women ask for or demand a man's money, they have a sense of entitlement over a man's money.

Unit1 · Answer

I don't understand the second part but the first part is on point.

nawtee_me · Answer

No, If she wants money she needs to get a job. I will support her and help pay bills but if she wants spending money she needs to go to work.

msc545 · Answer

They really do not ask for money directly very often - and instead ask for expensive stuff like dinners, vacations, cars, houses, etc.
