"Girls don't like boys, girl like cars and money." Accurate song lyric or jaded viewpoint?

[BobSacamano]

That line was sung by Good Charlotte. Is this accurate or a jaded viewpoint?

A generalization or stereotype only becomes one after it proves a certain amount of truth about itself. So I'll say halfway true in certain cases. The stereotype for some guys is that we want a hot wife. The stereotype only became true because more than enough men were only chasing after hot women. The stereotype for some girls is that they don't chase for looks so much as money/materialism. The stereotype only became true because more than enough women chased money and wealth.

Stereotypes are generalizations, and aren't accurate to be used as fact. But they aren't completely false either.

It would be equally true to say "boys like cars and money" (for many). Each has his/her own set of lessons to learn in life. Some learn fast, some slower, some don't and die pretty much the same as when they are born.

i think the point was more security- guys with cars and money usually end up having jobs and houses and being able to provide. while this is a nice perk to dating a guy (and it means if you marry them, they're more likely to be reliable with bringing home the bacon...), it will never be the reason- or any part of a reason- to date someone, at least for me. if I just wanted the security, I could live with my parents.

Weird. I've dated boys, but I've never dated cars nor money. I imagine they'd be lousy in bed and forget my birthday.

[TheoryOfAvarice]

Girls don't like boys who think girls only like cars and money.

[sweetnothings]

Agreed.. this is what I was gonna write..

C. Stereotype.

It's kind of like saying all white people like country songs or all college students get drunk. It's a characteristic that applies to some people in the group but not all of them.

girls are more into personality , also body image big with some .

most attractive girls I know don't know anything about cars or care much for them , money they do love money so that helps but doesn't everybody

[ihatework]

depends on the girl, amazingly not all are exactly the same.

[Anonymous]

true to a certain point. money matters, don't kid yourself that it does't.

but while girls might be into the guy for money, the guy is using the girl just as much as she's using him. He's BUYING her body pretty much. NOT love.

[rugbybabe69]

I think your jaded because its different for every girl you come acrossed. we all think differently

[Anonymous]

Girls don't like boys, girls like men with cars and money.

[saucealauce]

Girls may like cars and money. WOMEN like MEN.
