Single women M.B.A.s downplay career ambitions to preserve options on the marriage market

Why would I want a harpy MBA grad that's pushing 30 when I could chase a 24 year old waitress that is nice to me?

A woman with an MBA who is paying off her own student loans would have never bothered me. What would bother me is a woman with an MBA who was working a job way below her capability and looking for a man to pay her student loans. And during that time, constantly bragging that she has an MBA and that I needed to "step up" since I only have a bachelors' degree.

The only people I've ever seen put MBA behind their email signature are women. For some reason, that always makes me laugh. It's not a professional certification. I don't put BBA behind my name. Or MBA for that matter.

A recent study found that a majority of single female M.B.A. students deliberately downplayed their ambitions and avoided acting to enhance their careers if they thought that might torpedo their marriage prospects with classmates or co-workers.

How long will it take for men to be blamed for this?

So they lie to trap a more successful man. Nice.

I have an acquaintance that went this route. Her goal was to get her MBA abroad and snag a "rich foreign man" to pay for her school debt. To my knowledge, she's still single, 30+, and still holding out for her sucker... uh I meant Prince Charming, to bail her out.

They really want fried ice.

I hate chicks with graduate degrees. I only have a bachelors and granted with what i studied (history, yes i know its "useless" but my goal was to work in a museum) its hard enough to still land a decent career. So im trying to learn new skills to break in other fields such as programming. Im good with computers and even learned how to build my own for gaming so im trying to do something with thay. What i hate about chicks with a masters though is they come with a sense of entitlement that if you dont have a masters youre some loser. Just because you have a masters doesnt mean youre smarter than me. At my current job, i work with a girl who has a masters in accounting and thought honest to god that Alaska was an island. Ive met plenty of people way smarter than her, some who didnt even go to college. To them thay degree is a status symbol, not a measure of their intelligence.

Guys do this shit too. I refused to relocate to remote areas because I didn't want to eliminate dating prospects. My dad said he did the same thing when he was my age.

I've never found a woman's job to be an attractive quality, ever. It can certainly make interesting conversation (once dated a girl who worked at a circus school - that was definitely fascinating to hear about, whenever she wasn't focusing on bullshit petty gossip) but it won't ever make me find them more attractive.

Women know this. There's no changing it.
