And im tired of pretending otherwise 😔.

I don't understand how men feel entitled to complain about "hypergamy" or "gold digging" behavior when they actively seek out women with those traits. I think they're actually just upset at the fact that they don't have the economic status to get access to these dynamics. Men don't hate gold diggers they hate the fact they cant afford them. Passport bros are a prime example of this, they claim to be so frustrated with materialistic, goldigging, western bitches, but then fly to 2nd/3rd world countries where the value of their mediocre income is inflated which allows them to purchase transactional relationships (i.e. prostitution). Same thing with sugar daddy types who intentionally seek out much younger women who they know aren't attracted to them using money (prostitution). Honestly same thing with men who intentionally seek out trad women who they KNOW want to become sahms or housewives, like how tf are you going to intentionally marry a woman who is dependent on you to survive then complain about her valuing you for your money 😭?

If you are someone who uses your economic status as a selling point in dating, and you use money to buy access to women who would be out of your league otherwise, you will attract women who value you for money, this should be common sense. People are wayyy too comfortable generalizing women as hypergamous, nah it's just the women YOU want and choose to be with. Take some accountability.
