12801696, Explain this
Posted by SimplyHannah, Mon May-11-15 12:11 PM
When fat, unattractive men have a preference for attractive, nice bodied women it's okay. Aka " he's entitled to his preferences!!! " cause you know men love crying about being entitled to their preferences in peace.

But if a broke woman "prefers" men with money, it's a problem and the shaming ensues. What's the difference? Both prefer qualities in which they don't possess themselves...


Patriarchy?

12801724, Take? I don't like the term take
Posted by SimplyHannah, Mon May-11-15 12:28 PM
You mean the things that he gives her? As in gifts ect? If I give someone something I don't expect anything in return or for them to give it back. no ones gonna "take" anything from me that I don't want them to have.
12801768, But that's the problem...not saying you...i don't know you
Posted by Cenario, Mon May-11-15 12:44 PM
But there are a percentage of women who are gold diggers that are looking at dudes with money for the sole purpose of getting some.
So even though the man is giving her whatever willingly, she still looking to take it.



12801815, men know this and they're still "giving" to those types
Posted by SimplyHannah, Mon May-11-15 01:06 PM
They aren't getting anything from those men that the men don't want them to have. Gifts are gifts.

Posted by Teknontheou, Mon May-11-15 12:36 PM
Alot of men see it as a (mostly) infinitely deep and limitless well of joy and pleasure. Women often see it as something more finite - every time a woman has sex with a dude she's giving a piece of herself away to him. Which is almost exactly the same way men view spending money on women.
12801766, pretty much

12801781, I don't follow.
Posted by Teknontheou, Mon May-11-15 12:50 PM
These are the classic views of sex, imo. Slutshaming was a way of saying "you, woman, should be ashamed that you give away your valuable endowment (vagina) willy nilly or to too many men." That seems to line up with what I just mentioned.

You've had the opportunity to be with women who aren't as meticulous and are more carefree about it which suits you better and that's cool too.

giving of their bodies that way will take something from them, physically, mentally and emotionally.

12801931, 'giving of their bodies'
Posted by SoWhat, Mon May-11-15 01:56 PM
^ that right there is an increasingly outdated way to think about and discuss women's sexuality.

the idea that sex for women is mostly about 'giving' anything is on the outs. ideally women are receiving pleasure (and other things) as much as they're giving it (or anything else).
12801934, We're talking about the historical perspective, so absolutely.

12801860, The issue isn't if they like sex. Most people on the planet do.
Posted by Teknontheou, Mon May-11-15 01:25 PM
It's with whom they decide to have it, and under what circumstances. Women have tended to be way more judicious about that than men, at least in Western society in the last couple hundred years.

Or maybe she just likes what she likes? Liking men with money doesn't necessarily equate to selling yourself.

>B) She wants what she has not earned (money)

And he wants he cannot attract (usually) without the aid of money or perks. So it's about on the same level to me.

Posted by atruhead, Mon May-11-15 12:44 PM
unless she's a trophy wife, no man wants a woman contributing nothing to the bills

but some people are attracted to fat people
12801786, i think they both can be subjective
Posted by SimplyHannah, Mon May-11-15 12:51 PM
>unless she's a trophy wife, no man wants a woman contributing
>nothing to the bills
That's essentially what I'm referring too. Trophy material his physical opposite.


>but some people are attracted to fat people
I said fat and unattractive to contrast it with attractive and nice bodied. ( whatever your definition of it may be ). But I wasn't equating fat to undesirable here lol.

And to someone making hundreds of thousands of dollars, 50k a year might be "broke" to them. Where as 50k a year to someone else might not be
broke. I think they both can be subjective.

12801773, having money is not a quality.

12801863, there's a subtle difference that makes a difference
Posted by akon, Mon May-11-15 01:25 PM
its not about getting technical but explains it (to me at least)
qualities being particular attributes that are pretty defined and hard to change
and which define what you find attractive in a person

so being fat and broke doesn't qualify
saying 'i wont date someone who is broke'
i assume means its because you attribute certain qualities to this that you would probably find unnatractive (whether or not this is even true)
but being broke is not well defined neither is it static
i could be a broke-ass student but that has nothing to do with my personality
now, if someone else thinks broke=lazy, then thats something else
and talking about shallow, materialistic people is a waste of time
(imo)









12801900, I can dig it.
Posted by SimplyHannah, Mon May-11-15 01:42 PM
12801810, I think it comes down to the point of ignoring stuff
Posted by c71, Mon May-11-15 01:03 PM
like there is a stereotype that a racist white guy will overlook his dislike of black people just to potentially get with a very attractive black woman.

So, his friends might be like: "I thought you didn't like black people?"

and he'll probably be like: "...er, she's not like the rest..." (just because she's attractive - he's ignoring all the stuff about black people he usually is wrapped up in).


So, similarly, if a broke woman is like "I hate wimpy men" and she's dating a sort of soft fellow just because he has money, her friends probably will ask: "I thought you didn't like wimpy men?"


You know, the overlooking stuff thing.
12801824, This is also another thing
Posted by SimplyHannah, Mon May-11-15 01:09 PM
Often time these preferences are annoying because when you see the individuals that these people are actually dating it dosent add up. Nigga whose crying about how he only fucks bad bitches baby mama is a 4 and shorty whose hollering where the ballers at baby's father can't even pay child support.

if hes fat AND ugly*? and his gal is cute? no. has literally never happened. i defy ANYONE to show me a couple that meets this criteria

* - when the man is NOT rich. Money is the great equalizer for men. hes fat, ugly and middle class or below? guaranteed his woman is grimace. @ least. if not worse.

So many women get with the rich guys, and a good number may play them, or divorce and take half, etc. etc.

Even if a fat ugly guy gets a dime, he can't..."use her for her looks" at the same kind of level.

I mean, it's just different. And it's more of a "stupid" vs "shady" type of issue to me as well.
12801926, I disagree

I don't think "so many women" get married with the intention of playing men and getting divorced. Sometimes it happens that way not I don't think it's scheming and shady intentions from the start. At least not for a lot of women.

>Even if a fat ugly guy gets a dime, he can't..."use her for

He can use her for her pussy. Which to most women has value.

you remember me typing: 'what's it to you?'

you turned into a total spazz about that - as if asking 'why you care' is an automatic offense.

are you finding static/negative feedback when you express wanting a man with money?

people calling you a gold digger?

fat men make you made when they express they want a sexy wife?

I thought everybody just wants what they want.

I'm missing something?
12801965, it sounded snarky to me
Posted by SimplyHannah, Mon May-11-15 02:20 PM

And not like you wanted to engage in an honest discussion about it, which is why you got that response. I feel as though if you honestly wanted to know those things that's what you would stated to begin with. You were throwing stones and now you're hiding your hands, and I don't like it.

BUT to answer your question I think it's stems from men being cool with preferences and constantly defending their right to have these preferences( even the dumb ones) But when women have them, it's a problem.

Posted by NikaMandela, Mon May-11-15 01:53 PM
if you broke, find you someone rich. if you're unattractive, find you someone attractive. as long as you have things the other person lacks, it balances out.

unattractive men only get shamed for preferring beautiful women if they're broke. wack looking dudes with money do not get shamed at all for their taste in women. its expected they will pull a dime.
