When the selection of men includes asses like this and every other jerk who likes to hear himself talk is it any wonder we have so many single women.
Conservative white males are a bigger threat to the status of marriage in this country than gays. You would have to be pretty desperate to choose one of them rather than being single.
Except the lyrics include âI depend on me.â Also, this guyâs day job is the flunky for Orally who stalks people and then shoves a camera into their face and asks a half-assed question, which Orally will later explain for the oldsters.
To me the disturbing thing about this yahooâs comment is he didnât get any pushback from the women on the panel. I guess that demonstrates they are Stepford panelists.
âWelfare Queensâ is what the white man meant to say. But since Beyonce is a non-white woman all the bigots kkknow what he meant by this comment. Strangely, Beyonce is affluent, doesnât rely on gubmint assistance, and could buy out this bigot many times over. So maybe heâs just jealousâŚthe politics of jealousyâŚright Mitt? Yet another âlow-informedâ right wing pundit.
Does this moron realize that Beyonce does not rely on the government or her husband to support her. In fact, she out earned Jay-z by almost double just last year. So, please, feel free to call me a Beyonce voter all you want. Itâs not quite the insult this guy was hoping for.
I have to say, as a widow who makes a very good living, if I were to do the online dating thing, I wouldnât click on a profile of someone saying they make 20K either. I own a home, and am financially very secure. I would not be looking for a provider. Iâd be looking for a partner in a similar situation to mine, not a dependent.
1 Giving voters what they want is appropriate. I donât like the RNC strategy of promising almost nothing and doing less.
2 Beyonce could buy any of these drones. Sure, her manâs pretty successful, but I think she could make it on her own.
3 My mom worked her ass off to keep my brother and I in Catholic School and college, because she couldnât depend on my asshole father.
4 Eat shit, because youâre FOX.
FOX is your doofus station. Do they grow these guys in a tank?
BTW, can FOX explain how they describe day old video footage as âfreshâ in 2014?
And, BTW, are neutral heels really neutral when everyoneâs wearing neutral heels or were the ladies bowling?
AlrightâŚI will go down this path, even though I clearly see the blaring red WARNING signs
âit really isnât the most basic thing we look for in a manâ. Followed a few sentences later by âIâm financially secure and I expect my mate to be as wellâ. So which is it? Not a consideration or an expectation to be your mate?
And, why would it be great to âhaveâ a guy that makes plenty of money? (Putting aside the onerous ownership implications in your choice of the word âhaveâ, instead of say, date).
I have been well off and I have been dirt poor in my life. And it is far, far easier to date women when you are well off than when you are dirt poor.
Wow! Didnât know that all single women in the country were on government assistance and none of them had jobs and supported themselves. Gee Faux News, thanks for the enlightenment.
AlrightâŚyour situation sounds like you are not looking to co-mingle finances at this current time. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. But, if that is the case, why would it matter what amount of money he is making? As long as he is doing the things that attract you,(making you laugh, engaging in thoughtful conversation, sharing experiencesâŚwhatever it may be) why should you care about his finances? Unless you feel its the man position to pay for the outings, even if you are much better off financially? Which brings the circle right back aroundâŚ
That is going to be very bad news for places like sugardaddy.com and prostitution in general, isnât it?
The experiment was done on eharmony, if that at all matters. And on there, I didnât keep the profiles up to actually meet people. I was merely demonstrating to my roommate that the amount of money you make has a correlation to the number of women willing to meet you.
In the spirit of full disclosure, he did end up meeting a wealthier woman (he worked as a help desk first level call analyst, she had an MBA and worked for Georgia Power), marrying her and now have two children. So I am not saying that all women decide only upon wealth. I am saying that wealth has a direct impact upon the number of women available.
Where does one begin to take this asshatâs comments apart? Fiorst off, as has been well noted, Beyonce is NOT single, and is most certainly NOT depending on the government for anything. (anyone else hear the same racist dog whistle?) Secondly, itâs obvious in his mind that women are incapable of doing anything let alone conducting their own lives in a positive and seemly manner ⌠gotta have the patriarch on hand to make all of her decisions and of course to pay for her. I could go on ⌠but if this is the Republican outreach toward women ⌠fine, keep talking idiot!
I would disagree, Plucky, on this point. Men and Women need (thatâs N-E-E-D) each other. No man or woman is irreplaceable, at least not in the context of an intimate relationship, but people have a significant other in their life because they NEED them. They may not need that particular person, but they need someone to do what that person does, to fill that space in their life.
A man/woman saying I donât need a man/woman, even if sincerely meant, is bad rhetoric that does more damage than good to the person saying it and to anybody who may hear/read it. Realistically itâs not possible. Sure, you have the abnormally devout people, nuns, priests, monks, clerics, etc. who can fill the need with religious devotion. Then you have homosexuals who still need a significant other, but fill it with someone of the same gender. But both of those groups together add up to about 5% of the population. The other 95% of the population need someone of the opposite sex. Odds are you are in the 95%.
You are wrong in these sentiments.
I applaud you for trying to see things through the eyes of âthe other guyâ. That is the most important part and it seems almost no one ever tries do that. But reached the wrong conclusion. Itâs as though you put yourself in a manâs shoes and looked out with a womanâs eyes and drew the conclusions that a woman would draw. But that a man wouldnât see it that way. You have seen me say it before.
Men and women are different.
A man is going to look out with a manâs eyes, and see different things from what a woman would see from the same position.
What you are describing is what a woman would want. A woman wants to be Cinderella, the belle of the ball who is clearly WANTED more than the other women. Likewise, women donât men who need them.
While you think that what you are saying is good you got it backwards, you are offering men what women want. On average a man would 100 times over prefer being âneededâ to âwantedâ. (EDIT: that is, if forced to choose one over the other). Women are the opposite preferring to be âwantedâ over âneededâ.
So when you say,
[quote=âPluckyInKY, post:5, topic:6366â]Only the truly pathetic want to be needed, healthy people want to be wanted.[/quote] Itâs not true for men.
The adage, âWomen need love, men need respectâ is pretty much true.
Likewise a woman saying to her man, âI donât need youâ Is a disrespect.
The average man needs to feel needed by his significant other. The idea that his family needs his paycheck is not going to make him feel like a John at all. That will never enter his mind. Itâll actually make him feel good because he will feel needed, feel useful. He will see the women in his life who need his paycheck, as his dependents, as his family, not as whores. Let me say that again, he will see them as his family not as his whores.
