Isn't the stereotype that college educated women are more likely to get divorced kinda bullshit?

GridReXX · 2016-07-16T14:31:11+00:00

Yeah I hear that too from TRPers.

More educated women are less likely to marry period.

And when they do marry it's chosen wisely and usually 30+.

civilsaint · 2016-07-16T13:55:37+00:00

I always thought that college educated women were less likely to get married, and definitely would get married later in life.

The difference is that their first 2 'husbands' were just called boyfriends.

The longer you wait to get married, the longer you've been able to 'test spouses' without tying the knot, and the more likely you are to choose wisely.

Donald_Fuck · 2016-07-16T13:57:44+00:00

I don't know about it altering the likelihood of divorce but I think a woman's education is less important in the market.

There is definitely a presence of this attitude within TRP. Sometimes even dumb girls are a preference because you only look smarter in comparison, therefor more capable of accomplishment, therefor more attractive.

Atlas_B_Shruggin · 2016-07-16T15:59:58+00:00

is this an RP stereotype?

[deleted] · 2016-07-16T19:21:39+00:00

Yes.

The evidence I have seen suggests that contrary to what TRP claims, well educated women who marry late (presumably higher n count) have the most successful marriages.

This doesn't mean I would want that sort of woman personally.

Financially independent and educated women are anathema to RP.

Education means they are able to see right through RP bullshit and have enough perspective on the world to understand their own worth.
Financial independence means they are not fiscally enslaved to their husband and can leave a shitty marriage on their own initiative.

Both of those points above are leverage RP relies upon to keep their women in check. Whether or not careerist women initiate more divorces or not is immaterial. RP men know they cannot bring these strong, independent women to heel and they despise them because of that.

I've never seen that stereotype. Are you warping the stereotype about corporate career women?

tbolk · 2016-07-16T13:35:08+00:00

I don't know, where did you see that stereotype?

It is only logical, the more educated you are, the more disciplined you are, the more you can resist your destructive lust toward bad boys. The smarter you are, the easier it is to rationalize it to yourself that you love your beta. And the more career-focused you are, the less likely you are to have banged multiple chads at drunk parties and clubs.

Only problem is that those kind of women usually have incredible expectations of their partners, and often end up alone

TrialsAndTribbles · 2016-07-16T15:45:05+00:00

Education is a double edged sword. Smarter women are less impulsive and prone to rash decision making, so when they do couple with a man they tend to stick with it, however you have to make more money than her to ensure she doesn't grow restless with the concept of "supporting" a man financially. This dynamic is known to dramatically increase the risk of divorce as a woman's income exceeds that of her husband (at all income levels, poor, middle class, and especially rich). Studies I have read show this is true.

Ideally you want to make enough money to support the entire family, while your educated wife stays at home and takes care of the kids until they are teenagers. Then she can start a career at a lower income level, giving you much needed time to build that career before she starts.

College-educated, Catholic virgin brides who marry in their mid-20s give you the best chance of success. Sources vary, but that set of stats gets you to somewhere between 60 and 70 percent likelihood of staying married.

Not that staying married necessarily means you'll be happy, respected, and well-fucked.

A 22 (or younger) or mid to upper 30s, uneducated atheist with 15 or more past partners gives you like an 80 percent chance of divorce. 90 percent if she's been previously married.

despisedlove2 · 2016-07-16T15:33:09+00:00

Actually, it isn't.

See a recent post: https://www.reddit.com/r/PurplePillDebate/comments/4quh67/z/d50aca1

College educated women are responsible for initiating 90% of no fault divorces, as opposed to 70% for all women.

Was that a red pill stereotype?

lollygagyo · 2016-07-18T15:16:23+00:00

You're also kind of asking to be 'divorce raped' if you marry a woman who lacks the means and education to provide for herself. Just sayin'

Transmigratory · 2016-07-18T15:17:14+00:00

That's on the notion that said women will still try to get dat bad boy

Five_Decades · 2016-07-20T19:42:15+00:00

College educated couples divorce less, but the woman initiates more, about 90%.

miss-xaviette · 2016-07-16T13:32:35+00:00

Is that a stereotype? Didn't think it was...

TRP has an issue with women in higher education because for women university is largely a status symbol and kind of rite of passage. It gives them higher standards for men and makes them demand more, because they have this bogus higher perception of themselves as 'educated', when what they're really talking about is being of a higher social status.

I guess that's one reason, though I don't really care either way, I think they just mostly laugh at them for that. The big reason for me is that women have a tendency to ruin everything they get near. Is it really any surprise that standards of education have plummeted as the rates of women at university have exploded? Women bring their leftist nonsense to universities, enforce their rigorous standards of politically correct and socially acceptable speech and thought, and this infects all the lame betas who fall for their nonsense or just think it'll get them laid.

And the thing is that women barely care about this stuff at all. Women have no deep intellectual drive, none at all. Some of them like being rewarded for their efforts and enjoy their field, and they're alright, that's why they like what they do and why they think they're 'passionate' (has there ever been a less inspiring word?) about what they do. They make it difficult for men, especially more socially awkward men (who typically happen to be the geniuses that universities need), to function properly in higher education. Lots of men don't want to deal with that and will just accept a higher paycheck at a private company so they don't have to deal with women and their bullshit at university, instead of pursuing what they actually want to do and would really succeed at because they're brilliant.

Women bring very little to university except extra manpower, but they take so much away from it, so honestly if they could just fuck off it would be great. Men are better than women.

I've never seen a stereotype pushed in TRP that more educated women are more likely to divorce, and I've been involved in RP circles since before RP was on Reddit. They are less likely to marry, though.

You may be confusing this with women who have more sexual partners being more likely to divorce (and less happy inside of a marriage), which has been proven repeatedly and is easily verified with a plethora of studies.

Anthrosi · 2016-07-16T14:04:21+00:00

I think you mean highet rate of divorce due to them slutting around during their college years.
