Ladies please be honest, do you really want a guy with a good personality or would you just settle for a pretty face and walking piggy bank?

This is essentially an anonymous forum so there's no need to lie. I'm just tired of women claiming they want a nice guy only to end up with some jerk with abs and a 401k. When did it become socially acceptable to objectify men? They are human beings with emotional needs too. How many women are guilty of doing the very things they complain that men have done to them? How many wives will tolerate abuse as long as the husband continues paying the mortgage? Sure, males are far from perfect but what makes you think females are any better? 

For hundreds of years, women have been trying to convince the public they weren't crazy, so they could stop being accused of being witches. Now, we have girls who openly admit that they can't or simply won't think logically and no one does anything about it. I have always been a supporter of equal rights. However there is a reason why the mentally insane don't have the same privileges as the rest of us. They would become danger to themselves and the rest of society. So if you ladies really want to convince the world that you're just too crazy to be held accountable for your actions, why do you deserve the same rights as a rationally thinking man?

    Some men like skinny women, others like chubby girls. Some like shy girls, others like feisty girls. Some like older women, others prefer younger. Some like independent working girls women, other want housewives.

    There are gold diggers out there. more than many would admit, I barely escaped a few myself. But there are some fantastic gals in this world. For every crappy gal there is an equally crappy guy, in a perfect world the crappy people would stay with crappy people and  decent people would end up with decent people.

    If you are looking for a partner the first thing you have to is to quit painting all women with the same brush. 

    I understand your frustration  with the modern feminist's movement as it is as much about misandry as it is anything else. You can't control what other people think say or do, so just stop worrying about the feminists and you'll find a gal who likes to be treated like a gal.

    And fer crying out loud, stop riling them up.

    I’m a woman. I want a sensitive and caring man above all, who attracts me physically and spiritually, who earns more than me (I earn about 11.40 an hour and would like him to earn at least 17.00 an hour if he’s not going to go to school or start a business while having a menial job like I do). I have a light handicap that has prevented me from getting a job that would lift me out of the working class. He does not have to be wealthy, nor does he have to be Mr. America in the looks department. I am old-school traditional and don’t want to be the main leader in the home, but I do wish to be treated as good as he wants me to treat him (equal respect). I want us to be each other’s #1 best friend and emotionally vulnerable with one another, and I want him to be faithful to me in marriage, as I would be to him. I want him to be honest and trustworthy, too.

    Is all this too much to ask in this day and age? I hope not!!

    You seem to be assuming I'm heterosexual.  I will say this:  because we tend to earn less, there can be a real problem being in a long-term lesbian relationship, because sometimes that means neither of you is going to be able to support the other.  One aspect of compulsory heterosexuality is that lesbian relationships can be at a disadvantage financially.  However, from my observation of other lesbians, it seems to be bimodal and some of us are richer.  Therefore there is an aspect of needing to rely on people who haven't been negatively affected by the glass ceiling and the like, but that needs to change.

    I can only speak for myself and what I've observed from my family, friends and acquaintances.  Some women want a walking wallet with Model good looks, some women want a man with a brain an interest in domestic and international politics, some women have no preferences and some women become friends with a man and then slowly fall in love with him and care not what he does to earn a living, some women just don't care and some do.

    Good personality wins hands down with me. AND, someone who will look out for me and stand by me when I need it. I actually met a guy once with loads of money who was falling over himself to take me out. When the time came, he stood me up!! A friend of his told me he was a busy man and would never stand me up intentionally. No, I didn't give him a second chance. I liked him because he showed me so much respect - as I said to his friend, he made a mockery of that when he stood me up.

    The thing you don't seem to realize is that women go through phases just like men.

    And yeah, abs CAN be attractive, and financially stable CAN be attractive.

    And maybe that's enough for some women to ENTER into a relationship.

    But personality still has the biggest effect on the maintainability of a relationship.  If he isn't interesting, if ALL he is is abs with a bank account ... well, there are other people with abs and money.

    For that matter, abs don't help all that much in the future.  What would he be like if he had to change your diapers, or you have to change his?

    Money is fickle - therapists regularly say that differences in money management cause the biggest rifts in relationships, and maybe they are right, but I think it is more fundamental than money:  How do you deal with problems, with disagreement?

    So, maybe a 17yo might honestly think it's all about a pretty face and a piggy bank, but anyone who has actually had a relationship that lasted longer than a month will tell you it takes much Much MUCH more.

    I can't tell you how many women are "guilty" of what. I can only speak for myself in saying that I'm fortunate I didn't have to give a lot of concern to whether a guy would be a "provider". So I had the freedom to go for a good personality match. I'm perhaps also lucky that my personal "type" isn't what most people would consider conventionally attractive. But I will grant you that in the US at least untreated mental illness in both genders is a huge problem.

    I want someone who is as equally weird as me, who is willing to talk about the 4th dimension and alternate universes at 5am after clubbing sitting on the curb eating a kebab. I am sapiosexual, for me intelligence is the most important and the first thing I notice is his eyes.

    Are they vacant or there's something worth discovering.

    I don't want a nice guy, I want a man who knows his worth and he doesn't bend backward for the pussy.

    Re piggybank, when I date someone, I make sure we are paying eqal-ish. He drives me 50km to see the Zoo, I buy the tickets etc.
