Marajade: "But when all you read in the thread is how men only want pretty women and that's their only criteria what do you really expect?"

This thread is about what an immature whiny sniveling successful woman wants. So, let's go back and look at some of her points.

I am a 38-year-old successful female who is emotionally and financially secure.

Well, shazaam, so far so good.

I have been told that I am very attractive and intimidate men.

So who is telling her this, her momma? Other fems? I doubt that any man would tell her that, she would probably screech, call him a sexist pig and try to sue him for harassment.

I would like to get married but am thought to be too independent.

So, who is putting that idea in her head. Her momma? Her fem friends? Certainly not a man. She would never take a statement like that coming from a man! Nope, not financially, emotionally secure and independent her! And frankly, I cannot imagine any man telling her that he would like to marry her but she is too independent! LOL!!!

In the past, I just thought that these men were needy.

A really deep thinker this one. Certainly no bias or stereotyping there!

However, I was having a group discussion in mixed company where a man said it seems like women don't need men anymore.

So why doesn't she go out with a MAN and have a discussion like this one-on-one when her ditzy group discussion fems aren't around?

I feel as though women were forced to become independent and support themselves.

So ask yourself, who forced her to become independent? Gloria Steinem or Richard Nixon? You make the call!

Now, men seem to be threatened by our success.

Maybe, but the married ones, you know those men who found mates, don't think about it much. And they really really don't like being around women like this. That's why they didn't marry them.

Do I need to act like I "need" men to find my soulmate?

Only she can answer such a stupid question. For that matter, only she can ask such a stupid question.

I abhor needy females, yet I do want to share my life with someone with the ultimate goal of getting married and perhaps having children.

This is asinine. She equates getting married and "perhaps" having children with being a needy female. And she abhors needy females. This woman has issues, and she really needs to stay out of the gene pool. It's for the children.

What is ironic is that I would walk away from my career for the right man and situation.

Translation: "If I could meet a man who is fabulously wealthy and I could quit work and have the lifestyle I want, I would gladly quit working."

In many ways, I feel like I would rather be alone than have to acquiesce to a man's ego.

Translation: "I am afraid of having to deal with a MAN on an adult and personal level. I don't want any possible conflicts. I want a perfect life on my terms only."

She, and others like her, are doomed to a life of writing to hack columnists for advice.
