Why women need a good wage earner: The statistics are that even in top fields women make 75% of what men make. Many women choose their mates based on the potential of a possible future life in a nice neighborhood, with kids having good educations, medical aid, upward mobility and prosperity. It makes sense. It is practicle, and it is self preservation. Even back in the old days, it was better to be in an alliance with someone who was a good provider.

I think it is a biological and evolutionary imperitive to find the best situation one can possibly have. Most women are tiny, and would not survive on the streets. When there are babies and young children involved, it becomes worse. To me, a grown man making minimum wage tells me a lot of very unflattering things about his character, whether they are true or not.

It may not be fair, but that is what we have to go by.

I think it is pretty disgusting to judge someones character on how much money they make....there are lots of good people males and females that work minimum wage......it may be what 'You' have to go by but don't flatter yourself by saying its what 'we' have to go by I and others most certainly do not have to join you and judge males on how much money they make and assume making less=character flaws.

And based on what I have seen while males tend to be bigger than females....as a rule I don't see a gigantic size difference between all males and females....both come in all shapes and sizes women are not all 'tiny' by default, also there are plenty of smaller woman who would be insulted to have someone think they can't fend for them-self at all. I disagree that woman 'need' to be with a male that is really up to the woman some are perfectly happy to remain single.

don't sweat it! Image I think it was Andrew Jackson or Andrew Johnson who said "it's a damned poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word!" if it weren't for IE11's auto spell check I'd be spelling things wrong, left and right. :oops:
