Do you agree or disagree with this?

If you are a rich man who makes money in a dishonorable way, women will forgive this.

If you are a poor man who makes little money in an honorable way, women will not forgive this.

Women will forgive you for being evil, but not for being powerless.

~Corporate Machiavelli~

I would never date a person who makes their money through dishonorable way. Karma is a boomerang and it will bite them back. It is not about “forgiving”, really. Why would I forgive someone I know nothing about? How is them stealing affecting me? i would never date a man who makes money through dishonorable ways, like stealing, cheating etc.

It’s his life. He can do whatever he wants with it. I expect financial *stability* from my partner. He need not be rich, but as long as he is able to sustain himself and is working hard towards his goal, I will stand by his side and support him. I will not pay his rent. If we live together, we will share the rent. He should pay his part and I will pay mine - that’s how it should be. One partner bearing all expenses is ridiculous in this day and age.

I do not forgive serial killers/rapists/pedophiles/abusers/sex offenders/murderers. They are evil, aren’t they? Why would I forgive someone who has harmed other people knowingly? These crimes are awful and they need to be executed.

N. O.
My father taught me better. He took 3 jobs to help us get by. I watched him start at the bottom and work his way up to district manager in his main job.
I don't want a man who doesn't work nor do I want a man who turns tricks! Hard working is extremely attractive and its sexy AF!

somewhat... this gets into values.


Definitely some will accept a man who made money wrongly. Some will reject him. I think many women would try to justify in order to get what they want, which is security, etc...

Littlemoney - I think you mean who make and have little money. I know women who accept menwho make little money. Pastors wives accept this, missionaryies, etc.. Some will... depends upon values and perception of worth. I think women want to see "drive" "passion" in addition to wealth. Lacking any drive or anything... is pointless... if you think about her viewpoint, it doesn't make sense to make needy offspring with someone who can't pull their weight.

Last one has some truth in it. it fits into their psyche... not saying it's an absolute for all women or situations.

I think more men have forgiven this than women.

[razelove]

I agree 300% before I had a family I did a lot of shady stuff, and made way way more money, the effort I put into finding women was about the same as, well, breathing. After I got married I went legit and my income dropped to about 1/4 of what it was, suddenly I needed to put effort out into finding and keeping women lol

[globetrotter22]

Sadly there is some truth to this. Many women even forgive men who are just liars to begin with IF the guy was flashy and seductive enough to get his foot in the door. It’s the “feeling” the lie creates that woman enjoyed even if it’s false. Sometimes they even know the guy lying but they go along with it anyway. Again it’s about the “feeling” of the fantasy.

The old nicholas cage movie “Lord of War” had a scene when he met his future trophy wife by him setting up a ploy to make him look wealthier and more affluent than he really was. Lucky for him his arms dealing became very lucrative and “his wealth caught up to his lies about his wealth”.

She left him in the end. But still he got his foot in the door by lying. An honest but modest man wouldn’t have a chance with her.

There a nugget of truth in many things maciavelli said.
While there is truth to this I wouldn't be completely black and white about it.
I think it'd be more accurate to say, "if you make enough money women will be more likely to OVERLOOK dishonorable ways you achieved it"

[Juxtapose]

With the worst of women? Absolutely. With a woman worth a damn? She's not going to give a damn about your money besides you paying your half of the bills.

I've had women that were even willing to pay for me if I did all the chores haha.

[Anonymous]

Absolutely

People, especially women dot care where the money comes from as long as it comes to them

[Adam1978]

Don't agree, the last isn't about forgiveness, they just don't date the poor guy.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Yes, a low scum women certainly applies in particular to the 1st part of your quotes.

[NathanDavis]

I do no tend to agree with stupidity

no exception this time

[exitseven]

Yes, for the most part it is true. There are exceptions.

[jshm2]

No. It's incel bullshit.

Dishonourable men die getting betrayed or ditched.

[Squaresquirrel]

I think I have to agree with this.

[Fuentes]

Money, power, respect. Fuck getting by

[Juxtapose]

I think Shaolin monks and people like them have a good point actually. Happiness doesn't come from possessions, it comes from within.

Of course this point becomes null once you're poor enough that you're starving then of course you need fucking money.

[Fuentes]

@Juxtapose i grew up broke i am happy about whats in my bank account not possessions and one thing that makes me happy is never having to worry about being broke again due to money. And i can't be a monk because they don't have sex bro hahaha

[Juxtapose]

I bet those grandmasters had sex on the sly 😏

You're right though, fuck being broke.

[Jamie05rhs]

They'll also forgive men who cheat on them.

[MrSmithee]

poor men have more children than rich men
