You mis-spelled "bank balance".

[–]Arby01 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

that's the alternative to height.

Agreed that the assets quite often comes first. Then the equal distribution of marital assets, alimony and/or child support (everything you have ever worked for) will bankroll her, the kids, and every drugged-out, drunken deviant she lusts after thereafter. They will parent your children and their "values" will be instilled in your children simply because he is around them way more than you are.

And the next generation of girls learns that the way you become a "strong, independant woman" is to find a guy and soak him for cash and prizes.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

A lot of the point of a classic man-woman long-term relationship is the dynamic of protector & provider versus caretaker. But modern culture wants to reject this manifestation of sexual dimorphism. In a way, I understand that, however we can't deny that, overwhelmingly, this is the dynamic our nature falls into. It's part of why people ask gay men, "So who's the girlfriend/wife/girl of the relationship?" Those offended by the question don't realize that it comes from a sense that successful relationships (like their grandparents and all) traditionally have a traditionally male provider and a traditionally female caretaker.

Anyway, if you can't tell, this ties into height as, well, I'm going to speak here from experience. There's this sense of safety when a guy is taller. It's the "bigger, stronger" association I guess. And when you feel safer with a guy, you often feel more secure in the relationship. And, well, insecure women ruin many a good relationship...

Sure, but it sucks to be judged for something that there isn't anything you can do to change, short of painful, dangerous, and in most places illegal surgery.

But men aren't allowed to complain about those types of things. Women can. Minorities can complain about things, too, but not this, because it is a gendered issue, not really a racial one (even though height differences can be partially attributed to race sometimes).

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

Cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it. People are allowed to have romantic and sexual preferences. I'm not saying you can't complain about it, but, well, it's not like I can alter my brain chemistry to not have preference for tall guys.

[–]Lethn 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

And it's not like I can change my preference for aggressive women who like to take charge ( Especially in sex lol ;) ) over annoying and bitchy women who want a man to do everything for them yet complain when they actually do :P

[–]garglemesh42 -1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

I never said you weren't allowed to have preferences, but a lot of people forget that men are allowed to have preferences, too. And men are generally less picky than women are. Yet who gets all the flak for being "shallow" when they won't date women outside of a certain weight range? It's not women, that's for sure. And people can actually lose weight a lot more easily than they can gain 6 inches of height.

You are allowed to have your preferences, and I should be allowed to call you shallow for them, the same way men get called shallow whenever they have any preferences whatsoever.

It's the double standard that makes me angry, and it should make you angry too. Women should not be exempt from criticism.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Sure, I'm a libertarian and cultural libertarian so I totally support your right to do that. But I'm going to call you an idiot for thinking that a preference makes any person shallow. I'm going to call you even more of an idiot because you're basically saying that people can ignore their attraction, which opens the door for anti-gay people to use your words to justify their hatred of same sex relationships.

[–]garglemesh42 -1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Then people that call men shallow for not liking obese women are idiots, too.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Did I say anything to the contrary? No. In fact, hi, I'm a fat fucking bitch and I know I'm not what most guys like. I deal with it like an adult instead of bitching like a child.
