For the men, do y'all care about a woman's education, money, and status when you're in a relationship or about to be in one?

Me growing up, I never cared. In fact, it's annoying and it doesn't turn me on whatsoever.

No, I don't care. It's not like I'll ever benefit from any of that, anyway, so why should I care? It's great that those women care about their careers and having a lot of money and whatnot, it's great, but I don't care. It's great they care, but I don't. None of that is gonna get our you know whats hard or anything. I never once was out in public and heard 2 guys talking about a hot chick and then heard one of them say "Man, look at that degree on her!" No guy does that, ever.

@IWasCallingYaLarry Yeah, this is true. And a lot of women who are successful who say they bring their degrees and careers to the table, oftentimes guys don't find it attractive. Good on them for having their priorities straight, but no guy would care about it. I had to ask because I was curious, and many podcast were saying the same thing about what I asked.

@xSiFiGamer2016x well yeah those men are right. Those women have absolutely no clue what us men want in relationships. Why would we care about their career and their money when we're already working and saving up money? What good does that do us? I'll answer that for you, nothing. What we want is a kind, caring, feminine woman who is there for us and who won't lie to us and stab us in the back, who won't cheat on us, etc. I just find it funny how those same women will act like it's so hard to figure out what most men actually want in a woman even if we clearly already told them, it's like whatever we say just goes in one ear and out the other. Am I saying all women are this way? No, of course not, but sadly a majority of women today are like that, and to find an honest, good woman nowadays is extremely rare. You'd have better luck trying to find a needle in a hay stack or playing Russian Roulette.

@IWasCallingYaLarry This makes a whole lot of sense. Us men have a small amounts of requests of what we want in a woman, but a lot of women have these unrealistic standards and it's logical to them. And I also agree with the part where woman hear what they say, and they don't listen. They hear you, but they wouldn't listen to understand where we come from. At that point, it's like we're talking to a brick wall.

@xSiFiGamer2016x Pretty much. I know some traditional feminine women, guess what, though. They're already in relationships, one of them is happily married and has 2 kids. They treat me like I'm family. Sadly, most women thes3 days are too masculine and are insufferable to be around. It's like being around another guy. If I wanted to date a woman who acts like a guy, then I'd rather just date another guy, because there's no difference. And yes, many women want a guy who's 6 feet tall, has 6 figures, has a 6 inch you know what down south in the pants area, has a 6 pack, plays an instrument, speaks a foreign language, has 8 worthless degrees, etc.

@IWasCallingYaLarry You're not far from the truth at all. The magical "666" these women want sounds like it's already game over for us, but you know what? We want the "FFF" (fit, friendly, and feminine.) A masculine woman is something that men wouldn't date, and we have common sense to know that this is huge red flag. And you're right, we'd be dating a guy in a sense. Stupid move, sure, but we'll then be "intimidated" by it. The nerve.

@IWasCallingYaLarry Lololol 🤣

In that case, she'll be miserable and probably die alone.

@xSiFiGamer2016x Most likely

@IWasCallingYaLarry @xSiFiGamer2016x just curious..what is a masculine woman? How do you mean if she "acts like a guy"?
xSiFiGamer2016x · 22-25, M
@Coralmist This took me some time to have a better understanding. I might be wrong, but I'll explain the best I can.

A masculine woman is pretty much a woman who does certain or most masculine traits that a man would typically do.

A few examples being women are trying to be competitive with men, and it's usually men competing with each other to see who comes out on top. Another is her being a better leader than a man. Men are meant to be leaders of relationships for the purpose of a long lasting one. Basically, it's a problem now that men are looked down as weak where masculine women are the breadwinners. Another is a woman not being submissive to her man, or she won't be submissive until she finds a guy to match her energy. Honestly, men don't want to date a manly woman. It's ridiculous.

Basically, the women who say that they're strong and independent are the masculine type nowadays.... until they get a man.

Maybe he'll have a much better answer.

@xSiFiGamer2016x A person enjoying math or history or has an education is not masculine..I'd say thats human. But I guess I wouldn't enjoy a competitive nature in a relationship...from myself instilling it or him.
xSiFiGamer2016x · 22-25, M
@Coralmist Yeah, the education part isn't masculine, we go through this in schools and universities. But as far as competition, it's a turn off. And I'm glad that you don't fit with these women, it's not a good look in my eyes.

Men date at the same socio-economic strata or below and women generally date at the same level or above. It’s very rare to find a woman dating a man significantly below her in terms of education, wealth, looks and intelligence… In fact, I’ve never seen it happen and even if it does, such relationships are doomed from the start, generally-speaking. It only happens in movies and even there, that aspect is only shown to prove such associations do not work out…
