In it for the $

Why do men try so hard to avoid women who are "into them for their money?" I assure you money is a higher motivator than love. ALso men have made it next to impossible for women to make as much money in the workplace as men do. We are still paid on average 70% of what men are paid for equal (if not better) work. Women are the primary child raisers whether one or both works. Women are the primary food preparers and house cleaners regardless of who works. Yes there are always exceptions. Yes their are people that don't pull their own weight. But I can assure you raising kids is a FULL TIME JOB that doesn't end at 7pm. If a child throws up in the night guess who gets to get up at 3am, appease the child and clean the mess? Guess who has to give up all plans they have to stay home and care for the child? Grocery shopping was planned? Vacuuming the house was planned? TOO BAD, the kid needs your undivided attention to get better. SO when a woman looks at a man as a good bread winner, and loves you for being a hard worker that brings home enough money that it is easy to make life better for herself, the kids AND you, you really should reconsider what that is worth. Does she love you when you pick your nose and flick it in the house for her to vacuum up later? No. But NO ONE will love you for that. Women know that once they are pregnant, and their biology reconfirms it in the form of chemical love, that they need someone to protect them, shelter them and provide for them so they can take care of the kids and you and themselves. And that should be a job YOU VALUE. So next time you say "I don't want a woman who wants me for my money" think about what you are saying. You don't want a woman who values the work you do. And ladies, the men that say that to you? They won't value your work, regardless of what that is, because they don't value their own. They think they should be loved because their farts are so cute. They haven't grown up and they don't live in reality, where money is necessary for survival.

I was trying to say although love is wonderful and awesome and being best friends is extremely important, money is too. And let's all stop trying to pretend it isn't. And there are LOTS of WONDERful HELPful men out there. Ones that will support everything you chose to do and give helpful advice, instead of making life more difficult. Keep being picky. Because if you waste your time with someone not good enough, then awesome will walk on by because you are already busy 

But men pick based on looks, why is it a sin for women to pick based on money? Most women want a certain lifestyle. They cost money. Men want a certain look. It costs money
