Search Results: marriage material

In a 2018 study that looked at sexual behavior of those between the ages of 18-44 years of age, it was found that less people are getting married compared to those in the past. One highlighted reason had to do with men not making enough money for women to consider marrying them.

Modern women were interviewed around campus and most wanted men to make at least 6 figures to consider them marriage material. With the average figure being 100k/year for men to be considered marriage worthy. In addition to this, most women in said interview were put off at the idea of being with a man who makes less than them. Now, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median wage for workers in the United States in the second quarter of 2022 was about $1,041 per week or $54,132 per year. Thus, men are expected to make 2x the median salary of your standard American to be considered marriage worthy.

Do you think these expectations are reasonable?

I fully and adamantly believe this is false, by the way. This earlier post I said explains why:

"Considering women are, and ALWAYS HAVE BEEN, the gatekeepers of sex and love, you have no one to blame by yourself if you haven't found the right one yet by your 30s. Women have probably rejected dozens of quality, marriage material men by then, for being too short, not wealthy enough, not good enough in bed, etc.

It's a completely different game than what men have to go through, where we have to show our value to women to even get noticed and aren't seen as desirable merely for existing, like women are. Most men don't get to that "valuable" phase, until their mid to late 30s."

Women have it EASIER, but some (very few, but some) women still have bad luck finding someone. Men have to demonstrate value, in order to be "worthy" of love though, and most men are not guaranteed success, winning the genetic lottery, or being arrogant AF, to be seen as worthy 100% of the time.
