You are saying 2 different things. If an excess educated woman cannot find a man, then an undereducated man will not find a woman

That will not affect American Freepers to any degree. If we run out of eligible US women, there's loads of Latina women available.

[post 745]:And when it does change and it is the woman who has the good job, and makes most of the money, it will be the woman who is in control of the relationship (because she is the one with the money)

The woman is already in control of the relationship, even when she makes less money. The person in control of the relationship is the person most willing to terminate the relationship if her desires are not met. In the US today, because of the way divorce laws lean, that is the woman. Women initiate the vast majority of divorces in the US, and usually get the kids and the house and the lions share of the assets.

You assume that making the major share of the money will put the woman more in charge than she already is. You seem to like the idea of men being more subservient to their women. I don't think it will happen. The man will have less to lose in a divorce.

I'm reminded of a woman I used to work with. She was very gung-ho about making lots more money, thinking that this would make men more likely to want her, and overlook her being a 50ish overweight neurotic drama queen. Didn't work.

The average man would much rather share a small apartment with a reasonably attractive, sweet-tempered woman with a high libido, than share a mansion with a woman with a permanent feminist chip on her shoulder

I never cease to be amazed at the ubiquity of women who expend so much energy convincing themselves how illegitimate, nay criminal, it is to require more than they are willing to give for any particular benefit.

I quit dating US women 14 years ago now, and only wish I had discovered Latinas earlier in life. They are far more passionate, honest, respect their man, and have no interest in whining or growing a penis. Thank God I stayed single and never married the typical neurotic US woman who is one imaginary crisis away from a nervous breakdown and just looking for a guy to blame it on. This whole "what have you done for me lately" or the "your not worthy of me" attitude is pitiful, and certainly not feminine. The attitude used to make me vomit, now it's hilarious from a distance. Particularly since the worst offenders dumped on all the guys in their 20's and now find themselves all alone in their late 30's. What goes around comes around.
