Prestigious women dating disparity.

LOL yes, sad the many prefer that to men that dont stack up or show that they will be equal and respectful partners in a relationship.
been for some reason aren't preferring these women. And you can say it's because the men that are at their level you are somehow chauvinistic and you may even have a point but they don't have to date these women.

The arrogance of these women is what gets me there's nothing wrong with them there's something wrong with everybody else on the planet. That's a bit narcissistic don't you think?

"I deserve a man that meets this criteria" but yet you're alone so clearly you don't.
And it's still never hard to get laid if we choose. There are certain skills men have (and are far too willing to share) that transcend their ability to earn, contribute, or even be emotionally available.
I don't think these ladies are complaining about not getting laid enough. The idea of such a thing is rather whimsical to me. They seem to be upset that the men they want don't want them.

They don't seem to think about maybe it's them.

It just seems like they're probably too conceited for relationship at least a respectful one.

But honestly if there anything to look at and they want to get laid they just go to some guy and say hey let's go get busy that's not the least bit difficult.
 
Yeah they feel entitled to something they aren't entitled to.
Entitlement is something you believe you deserve to have without putting any effort in. If a woman has worked her ass off to become highly successful in a world run by men then it's not to much to ask to want to date a guy who's at least as motivated and intelligent as they are.

I realize that for most sexist men you only care about a woman's body, but women actually like to be able to have an intelligent conversation with their significant others. When you're a doctor or a lawyer coming home and listening to your husband talk about how many trash cans he hauled away that day isn't particularly stimulating.

Meh conspiracy theories and never get far with me.
It is a fact that 80% of politicians, corporate board and business owners are Men. That is not a theory. It is a fact that no woman has ever been elected president of this country despite half the population being female. These are not theories.

So an entitled woman who has a prestigious job
I see so, if a woman workers her ass of to get a prestigious job she's entitled, but if a man does he's some how just a hard workers.

is single because of society or because of men?
It is her choice to remain single, but it is a society controlled by men yet filled with pathetic men that makes her uninterested. You have your entitlement backwards. It is lazy men who don't feel like getting a quality education and a successful career that seem to think they are entitled to date brilliant highly motivated women. The women are saying not thank you.

I can't possibly be anything about her because women are perfect.
Well in this case, the women may not be perfect, but available men around them clearly do not meet their standards.

Our society has gone through and told them not to change for anybody.
Again, you have that backwards. The women have changed. They have improved themselves. They are no longer home makers. They are better educated, more intelligent and more talented than most men are. It's the men who aren't changing. Men are the ones not keeping up with them.
 
Entitlement is something you believe you deserve to have without putting any effort in.
exactly, women think that men equal to them in employment should be beating down their door and they have done absolutely nothing to acquire their desire.
If a woman has worked her ass off to become highly successful in a world run by men then it's not to much to ask to want to date a guy who's at least as motivated and intelligent as they are.
yes it is. they didn't work on the making themselves desirable as a mate. The men in their league don't want to date them. You can blame this on whatever you want but it's what it is.
I realize that for most sexist men you only care about a woman's body, but women actually like to be able to have an intelligent conversation with their significant others.
I think you should get a refund on your crystal ball and you're psychic lessons. I do not care at all about a woman's body. I am a homosexual man.

I'll give you a moment to pull your foot out of her mouth.
When you're a doctor or a lawyer coming home and listening to your husband talk about how many trash cans he hauled away that day isn't particularly stimulating.
that's a bit odd I've been with a guy for a little under 13 years for ten and a half of those years he worked his Brewster at Starbucks. Do you know how many times we talked about work and I self-centered we told him I'm not stimulated by hearing about your work?

It never happened because I'm not as self-centered jackass. Mostly we didn't talk about work. I mean aside from venting and we would listen to each other.
It is a fact that 80% of politicians, corporate board and business owners are Men. That is not a theory. It is a fact that no woman has ever been elected president of this country despite half the population being female. These are not theories.
pointless point noted.

I see so, if a woman workers her ass of to get a prestigious job she's entitled, but if a man does he's some how just a hard workers.
I haven't seen any articles with the Wall Street journal where men are complaining because there's not enough women and prestigious jobs for them. That's probably because men don't look for in social standing among the women they date. It's almost like they can love woman regardless of her career she can deliver about her work.

It is her choice to remain single, but it is a society controlled by men yet filled with pathetic men that makes her uninterested.
I'm as egalitarian is it gets. She has every right to make any choices she wants. But so do men. And if a woman wants to become a CEO some.com company or a hot shot lawyer. You go be you.

If she still wants to date and eventually marry a CEO of a dot com company or a hot shot lawyer, she's probably going to have trouble finding one that wants to date her.

She is entitled to make every decision she wants, but she's not entitled to dates.
You have your entitlement backwards. It is lazy men who don't feel like getting a quality education and a successful career that seem to think they are entitled to date brilliant highly motivated women. The women are saying not thank you.
that's not what the article said. The women spoken about in the article we're upset because the men at their level as far as career goes what interested in them.

It's not that low educated men are complaining that they don't get a shot with these women you got that completely backwards.

Well in this case, the women may not be perfect, but available men around them clearly do not meet their standards.
no again it's because these women don't meet the standards of the men that they want to date.

Again, you have that backwards. The women have changed. They have improved themselves. They are no longer home makers. They are better educated, more intelligent and more talented than most men are. It's the men who aren't changing. Men are the ones not keeping up with them.
I wouldn't want to try and keep up with that anyway I can settle for someone else. I don't blame straight men for not taking I wouldn't either.

Sad that you associate youth with attractiveness.

Someone like Trump definitely does.

There are a number of ways I could respond here. Regarding physical attractiveness that is an absolute fact which is not even debatable. We are ALL more attractive when we are younger than when we are older. Is that really a troubling observation? Regarding attractiveness in a general sense that is for each individual to decide. There are many very beautiful women who for example marry much older men. Regarding my previous post the fact is that many men in their 30's, 40's and 50's prefer to date women who are much younger than them.
 
Most men (possibly all) will always seek to find the most attractive woman they can find. Most could care less about how much money she makes.

That's possible in a grossly overgeneralized way. But I could see, maybe even subconsciously, that a successful guy would rather a younger less successful woman who appreciates his money since it kind of gives him a power over her. I have no idea if this would be common or anything, but could find it convincing. But I've been dating my wife since high school so I'm not likely the best person to ask what single adults are going for.

That's a fair criticism. I definitely am generalizing, but it's based on years of observations along with my own experiences. Heck I know about divorced friends of my parents in which the men remarried women who were about 20 years younger.
 
Think of her as a project. The joy is in to finish raising her. It's important to pace yourself though. Once you finish teaching her, she might decide that she wants to move on. If you have a kid with her, make sure it takes 18 years to keep developing her. On the other hand, she could lack motivation and stay just the way she is. The advantage of the latter is that she never leaves. The advantage of the former is that you get to enjoy her during her best years before she moves on. Either way, it's a win-win.

If she doesn't speak English, even better because that gives you both yet another common goal. Any man that either marries a 18 or 19 year old or has her as a mistress should develop a kind of curriculum. It will add purpose to the relationship. Having children with a mistress is a REALLY STUPID idea. Get a vasectomy if necessary.

The bolded is down right creepy.
 
Why? After about two decades I have someone that fits me like a glove.

Because it sounded as if you were speaking about your child, not a partner in an adult relationship.

Creepy.

Men that do the work don't want someone who has "hit the wall". Think of it this way, if a man makes let's say $150K, getting a wife that also makes $150K means an awful tax burden and not much more in terms of a better lifestyle. More likely it becomes a competition. Such a competition is a great recipe for a failed marriage.
 
Think of it this way: A woman that never grows up can be cute; a man that never grows up is just annoying.

Because it sounded as if you were speaking about your child, not a partner in an adult relationship.

Creepy.
 
...a man that never grows up is just annoying.

You mean like a petulant child who hates to lose and will blatantly cheat & lie to get what he wants and thinks no-one will notice.


Yeah, irritating doesn't begin to describe Trump.

Well give me your saddest, most myopic, shallow view..

...regarding physical attractiveness that is an absolute fact which is not even debatable. We are ALL more attractive when we are younger than when we are older....

No it's not an "absolute fact"
That we liked ours bodies better when we were younger doesn't mean we share the same attractions we did when we were 17

What I found sexy at 17, I no longer do so


...is that really a troubling observation?

Narrow and shallow more like

They do, some older men want "eye-candy" hanging around them.

They wants women for decorative purposes rather than as a partner.

I wasn't pushing to be myopic or shallow or seeking to promote a behavior, I was simply being factual. Also I didn't comment on what any particular person finds attractive. What you find attractive is up to you. Regarding what most men attractive the evidence is clear. Let me ask you this. Who would men rather see in a bikini, Rosie O'Donnel or Scarlet Johansen? (Not sure about my spelling.) Would Playboy have attained the same popularity if they used women in their 70's rather than women in their 20's?

How much less could they care?

Define "attractive"?

So you are into the whole trophy wife thing and you attempt to justify your shallowness by proclaiming that "everybody else does." Are you married?
 
This is a good observation that you make here. Does it shock you though? Throughout the past few decades the education establishment and marketing forces have convinced our society that the people who go into trades are not as smart or motivated and that those people are on the lesser tier of society. The upper level corporate type woman that this article refers to likely all have upper level college degrees. Do you think they want to tell their friends and colleagues that their husband is a mechanic or plumber? They ostensibly would rather stay single than date or marry "down."

Ah ha, at your young age you are a socialist. Why haven't you said so before?

My response there was in the context of the article from the OP and they type of men these women would be interested in. I know the type of men that are being referred to. I know from personal experience with people I have met throughout my life along with anecdotal accounts from many other people I know that successful men in their mid 30's to early 50's often seek women who are significantly younger than them. That's simply an observation. I'm not personally condoning it or advocating that.

What makes you think that I am young and a socialist? I would assume that you completely misread my post.
 
...I was simply being factual....

Perhaps you were describing the "facts" as they appear to you


....I didn't comment on what any particular person finds attractive...


But you said older men (as a group) find younger women attractive


...who would men rather see in a bikini, Rosie O'Donnel or Scarlet Johansen?

You can't think of a sexy looking, older woman ?


...would Playboy have attained the same popularity if they used women in their 70's rather than women in their 20's?

Why such extremes ?
Do the decades of the 30's, 40's and 50's exist in your mind ?

Didn't Playboy magazine do a nude spread of Joan Collins at 60 ?

Probably because you have difficulty to get established actresses to stiff off their clothes...not so much young starlets looking to make a break and some $$$
