Dat bitch better make some good money, the more the better, don’t care if it’s more than I make, she also better not act up or get fat or anything, or else she out.


This is the requirement list for any female. Any female who doesn’t meet ALL of these requirement is worthless and should immediately improve herself or else consider suicide:


1- must work unless a student or paralyzed
(Notice: you MUST work, doesn’t matter if your husband is a trillioner, you must work! Or else you are a lazy sloot)

2- you can not be fat

3- you must lift weights

4- your pussay and ass must be shaved and flawlessly clean at all times, legs shaved too, always,

5- no tats

6- no tongue or nipple piercings

7- no farting or burping

8- no fake tits or any other plastic surgery unless fixing an obvious deformity

9- respect your parents and your man

10- Be kind and good mother, no yelling at your kids, bring them up to be real men and warriors or honorable young women who obey their mother and respect and serve her 100% as long as she is alive, no nursing home bullsheit, bring your kids up so they take care of you personally like you took care of them.

It doesn't matter. Most girls aren't looking for a provider. As long as you're both earning a good salary then her earning more won't be an issue in most cases.

It does make you responsible for actions against you. Not actions in general. I don't know why I'm continuing to answer you though I've never seen you make a positive addition to any discussion here. Guess I'm that bored.

My wife makes 2-3 times what I make.

She is a Pharmacist making $120,000-140,000 a year.

I had a good job I quit when our son was born and was Mr.Mom for 4- years or so.

Then got a Union job making decent money but I worked 2-7am and then was home with my son.

So no day care expenses.

Would not give up the experience of being there for my son and watching him grow up.

Although it's a hell of a lot harder than any job I have ever worked.

I'm with this. We're in the social media/dating app age and If she's making more money than you 9 times out of 10 accept you're on a countdown until she gonna find someone making more money and she's out. So long as u clap dem cheeks homegirl can peace out.

I believe it. There's studies saying women want their man making 1.5x more than what they're earning.

Oh hell yea, especially with that extra money. It's only gonna be seen by her, you as her boyfriend or husband aren't going to see any of it and are likely going to have to financially lead the relationship.

and we're not even putting in the factor as to if they're GOOD with money. So even if she's making more, if she's trash with her money, she's likely gonna be trash with YOUR money.

So many loosers and copecels here.
If your wife makes more money than u, then u might as well start wearing a dress.
Woman always look to advance, so if she is making more money than u, she will leave u at one point.

The only good thing is at the time of divorce, u wont leave ur stuff, which will happen eventually.

I'd say 'dominant' alone is enough, but most men in 2020 don't have the balls or experience with women.

It's not for the faint hearted as your insecurities will come out and you'd literally be PMSing like a sloot (I've seen it...it's ugly).

On the other hand, if you have the experience and character, it's cherry on top. Say you found a good girl, and she happens to earn more? that's a bonus. It will enable you to take more financial risk.

Also, divorce rape you won't have to get ass fked so double win.


For the average sob men in 2020, yeah don't bother. Go cry over your oneitis.

yeah nah, speak for yourself.

A woman that finds a man she really wants, she'd feel lucky she's with him. I'm not saying she marry a street thug, but a guy that earns a decent wage and she happens to earn more, it's fine and a lot more common than you think. Not all women are retarded

Respecting the list(srs) But we know 90 percent of women are wiped out just from rule 3 alone.

And no single moms gotta be on there in terms of a LTR

90%? more like 99% of women dont lift

a cardio bunny is good enough for me, i make mid 100s and the girl i’m currently seeing makes almost 3x what i make, has her own place (bought) in manhattan, and she’s always insecure im gonna leave her

i’m 2 pts better looking than her (dating down), treat her good, etc and i wouldn’t be opposed to marrying her since she can’t rape me in divorce court

This is a fantastic list. I’ve ghosted chicks after sleeping with them solely because they had a tattoo, or some other undesirable trait like smoking

It's a bad, unnatural idea. Men are supposed to be the main providers in the family, it's hardwired in us. The culture shift over the last few decades has tried to normalize women taking over, but it's abnormal and will undoubtedly lead to a loss of respect, subconscious or otherwise. But to each their own.

I met my wife when I was 30. Shes also a few years older than me.

Wife, then GF had 2 master degrees and made twice my income.

Was never a problem because we both knew pretty quickly neither of us was going anywhere...meaning it meant more for "us". Who gives a chit who contributes more.

Was a bonus during dating because she wasnt interested in my money and so doing dating chit wasnt a financial burden on me. I liked to get her nice things and she appreciated but I never had to help her out financially. I bought guitars,AV equiptment, and other chit I wanted instead. She financed her own wants.

Combined income = Retired at 48 (her in early 50s).




BTW, Smart nerdy girls clean up nicely. I saw that rump and thighs walk by my office one day in a dress suit, and was done for.





Extra bonus points to brainy nerd girl career types = arent sluts.

I agree with this dude. I can't believe how many men are now willing to cede all relationship power to the woman. Enjoy when she starts questioning your spending and don't think she doesn't think a little less of you because she's likely around dudes who make as much or more than her.

If we're talking a doctor/lawyer situation where both make bank but she happens to make more it's probably ok. But if we're talking about a tradie or salesman vs a lawyer or doctor of businesswoman it's no bueno.

What has become of this younger generation? Next y'all will give up all of your masculinity and stay home and take care of the kids.

If we're talking a doctor/lawyer situation where both make bank but she happens to make more it's probably ok. But if we're talking about a tradie or salesman vs a lawyer or doctor of businesswoman it's no bueno.

What has become of this younger generation? Next y'all will give up all of your masculinity and stay home and take care of the kids.

SAD
That's what I am actually going for with the new gf. She makes more than twice what I make and has an inheritance coming large enough that we wouldn't have to work again.

Is your masculinity that frail?

I'd prefer it. More money for us and if a divorce happens, no alimony.

If you're not pulling dual 6 figs, life is rough
