'This is the rare area, compared to other topics we've done surveys on, where women's old-fashioned beliefs about sex roles seem to apply.'

It's almost as if they there's a connection between vulnerability and ability to support.

There are a lot of women what will date retired men.

[MrB]

Strange...

Why would an “independent woman” require a man to have a job?
It’s not like she needs him to support her or anything.
After all, that’s what they government’s for.

/feminist denial of reality

[a fool in paradise]

“most” important?

I’d wager that more women would rank looks above income. Without being “approachable” (or receptive to an approach), they won’t even discover if the guy has a job or not.

This is a reflection of the tough times we are living in.

George : Elaine, bald men, with no jobs, and no money, who live with their parents, don't approach strange women.

Jerry : Well here's your chance to try the opposite. Instead of tuna salad and being intimidated by women, chicken salad and going right up to them.

George : Yeah, I should do the opposite, I should.

Jerry : If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right.

George : Yes, I will do the opposite. I used to sit here and do nothing, and regret it for the rest of the day, so now I will do the opposite, and I will do something!

( He goes over to the woman )

George : Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice that you were looking in my direction.

Victoria : Oh, yes I was, you just ordered the same exact lunch as me.

( George takes a deep breath )

George : My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents.

Victoria : I'm Victoria. Hi.

The young men out there who are unable to find a job due to ObamaNomics should be thinking about Obama’s failure.

The young women out there who see so many unemployed young men all around them should also be thinking about Obama’s failure and how his failure is directly connected to their hopes and dreams for what their lives will be like probably going up in smoke.

I can tell them based on past depressions in the job market: extremely risky. Proceed with caution.

Pretty Woman: What do you do?
Guy: I’m a doctor.

Ugly Woman: What do you do?
Guy: I’m unemployed.

No matter what they ladies say, the sexiest part of a man is apparently the wallet.

“I’d wager that more women would rank looks above income.”

I disagree. Formula 1 boss Bernie Eccelstone has a hot young wife. For Bernie, it sure as hell ain’t the looks.

the wallet

This survey points out another irrational basic premise of feminism...they deny a woman's desire for family and home of her own.

And that's why, whether admitted in a public setting or not, this survey probably strikes at some real truth about what women think. It ties directly into biology.

This should help women hook up with men who are foot soldiers for 0bama because that's the only jobs there will be after his WAR ON THE PRIVATE SECTOR is over. This is what 0bamacare was all about. 1/6th of the economy.. POOF!

Well, most men do keep their wallets in their back pocket... ;)

Where, WHERE?

Where, WHERE?

Nursing homes that serve dementia patients.

[Jvette]

Ha, I dated a man who was unemployed.

Next week we celebrate our 31st anniversary:)

Simone de Beauvoir:

“No woman should be authorized to stay at home and raise her children. Society should be totally different. Women should not have that choice, precisely because if there is such a choice, too many women will make that one.”

“Seinfeld: The Strongbox (#9.14)” (1998)
George Costanza: [Elaine thinks her boyfriend is a super hero] Who is this? Blue Arrow?
Elaine Benes: No, Green Lantern.
Jerry Seinfeld: We found out his super power is lack of money.
Elaine Benes: Very funny.
Jerry Seinfeld: He’s invulnerable to creditors.
Elaine Benes: Ha ha.
Jerry Seinfeld: He’s the “Got No Green” Lantern.
Elaine Benes: All right, that’s enough.
George Costanza: Hey, Elaine, maybe his girlfriend is “Lois Loan”.
Elaine Benes: Well crafted.
