the average woman simply does not respect men who make less money than them. you can come back with all sorts of anecdotes and every women claiming that isnt the case, but the data on this is very clear.
its my opinion that you simply cannot trust people's words when it comes to hypothetical partners. Peoples stated preferences and actual actions are completely divergent.
- longtimelistnr 3y agoI'm not saying data doesn't exist, but this kind of thing makes me laugh i suppose because its just dating. All my friends have no trouble getting girlfriends and as we are recent college graduate age, most do not have salaried jobs and if they do are not the highest paying jobs. In this 22-25 age range though I do notice most of these women are self sufficient usually employed in the service industry or entry level degree related position. But overall dating is not something i care to even acknolwedge statistics about. Never going to find a partner if you're not living a fulfilling life and have unrealistic standards.
- regentbowerbird 3y agoCould you point us to the very clear data you mention about women having no respect for men earning less than themselves?
- bequanna 3y agoThis is well established: Generally, women will pursue men with higher socioeconomic status, men do not make a distinction and optimize for sexual attraction.
- regentbowerbird 3y agoIt's interesting but what's the source beyond saying "this is well established"?
- anthonypasq 3y agomarriages where the woman is the higher earner have substantially higher divorce rates
- regentbowerbird 3y agoThat's a very much weaker claim than "women have no respect for men who earn less than themselves." Still though, where's the data?
