It's TRUE. The real problem is that women want the success men have but dont want the responsibility that comes with that success. Men generally marry down (ie pick a women who makes less) because that's what societal norms have led to until the modern era.

I have nothing against a woman being in a wealthy or high-end career. But these women always want a man who makes just as much or more.


I know quite a few couples where the men who do very well but the wives do even better. All are pretty happy. One couple in particular, the wife is about to become VP of Marketing for one of the largest vehicle manufacturers in the world. He's the extremely handy type so he stays home and raises the kids while constantly doing home improvement projects (built a really nice deck, firepit, has renovated multiple rooms in their very large home, etc).

It can be done but as you say, the women in such situations have to be realistic in what they are looking for in a mate.

Camille Paglia, noted feminist, wholeheartedly agrees with you. She claims what started as an equal rights movement has morphed in to a war on boys, who are paying the price for radical feminism.

I'd love to see that same chart broken down by race and socio-economic status.

Its actually easier than that, just verbally say you're a woman and boom, you're magically a woman.

If anything feminism has pushed women to date effeminate men.

Women dating bad boys is evolutionary. Jordan Peterson has a few great speeches on this.

Happily married? Yes that’s what she tells me
Teach Sunday school? Yes
Gave birth to wonderful children? Yes
Love their husbands? Yes that’s what she tells me
Use a snowblower? Nope live in South Louisiana
Mow the grass? Yes if I am working to much and have not gotten to it
Make a great sandwich? This took alittle training because I am particular but a solid yes today.

Damn I knew I picked a winner!

Women want security. It is in their nature to be attracted to a man who can provide.

Why do you think feminists are so angry and miserable? They are a cancer to society.

True

I think this is true, but I think this particular stat is only to a minor degree.

Where men really lose out is intellectual disability numbers - almost mirroring their advantage in genius IQ - kind of balancing out the bell curve.

So women get all the good things but men get the bad.

It's almost like we value them as equals or even better.

But what do I know. I have a penis.

True, but not for those reasons.

Men don't "marry down" because society tells them to choose a female who makes less.

They "marry down" because men are A LOT less picky about the financial/professional qualifications of their mate. They generally prioritize attractiveness and maternal potential.

There's always been a lot more attractive middle-class and lower-class females than attractive upper-class females. That's why we've seen an historical trend of men marrying down, which might be confused as being a "societal" norm.

I would actually argue that marrying across socioeconomic strata is the more modern phenomenon. Socioeconomic boundaries used to be much more strictly regulated by society. That's where the "rich young man falls in love with pretty poor girl" story archetype came from.

It’s time to stop making sorry arse excuses like this to try and appease a dysfunctional culture. The reality is that a woman who has pursued higher education and a high powered career has become a less fit spouse, wife, and mother because opportunity costs.

You’ve given him the address to mail his man card, right? Because he’s a manny.

3 quick things:

1) Showing data is bitching?

2) Do you tell black people complaining about racism to get their skin bleached?

3) How is it a bad thing to show discrimination, or at least huge discrepancies?

I mean, you understand this includes all races, not just white women and men?

The prison stuff isn’t shocking or unexpected given the inherent differences in the genders.

The educational stuff is the result of the educational system being tailored for female learning as opposed to male learning. It’s a huge issue that needs to be addressed.

But what’s left off of that graphic is that males, even with all the AP/Honors statistics, still out score females on standardized testing across the board.

Hmmm, they left out a comparison of men/women with IQs over 130. Hmmm.
