formulating your theory by something you read gives you no credit. Your ideas are nothing new.

you have been bought yourself.

have an original thought and then you may have the ammunition to form a very powerful creedo.

Who are you talking about?

apologies for not directing my response.

i was responding to the original poster

Meh.

It's not that far removed from the way society has always been. Girls (especially in the past) were brought up being told that they should try to land a doctor or lawyer as a husband by their mothers (basically someone who they know will be a good provider and has a very stable financial situation). You would even see that in movies, like The Ugly Truth with Katherine Heigl where she's trying to date the hot guy next door and jumps up and down when she finds out he's a doctor. It's all about money.

Then there are sites like www.sugardaddy.com that matches up beautiful women with rich men. Men have to pass a check where they verify income, women just have to send in pictures to be judged and approved.

Men have always accepted the fact that they would have to spend a little money to get anywhere with a girl, whether it be buying them a drink, taking them to dinner, or in this case giving them $10 to talk to them for an hour. It's just par for the course really.

Usually the man who gets a date ends up spending at least $50.00 anyway.

In general, we all know what a man is looking for and if a woman has what he wants why shouldn't she get paid for her time? If she is good looking she probably gets a lot of offers and may not have the time to spend on a lot of dates. But if a guy is willing to pay her for her time, then she might at least not be wasting her time and he will probably show up.

Time is money and people should not waste each other's time.

It is not as if he is buying sex. He is simply paying her for her time so he can check her out.

A man with an ego might take offense to the idea of paying though, because he might think that he is god's gift to women. In that case I'm sure he could get paid for his time from a woman.

I didn't read your "gold digger" theories but ...

A smart woman wants a man who is financially secure and that is the bottom line. A woman of child bearing age is looking for a responsible husband and father for any children that come from a union. Don't criticize her for using her head and trying to pick a suitable mate.

There are so many women out there who are struggling to support children on their own and there are a lot of dead beat dads who are not paying any support to the mothers of their children.

Unfortunately most people (men and women) don't even think about who they are getting involved with. They seek instant gratification for their sexual and emotional needs and they wake up attached and involved or pregnant and broke.

For men, if you can't hold down a job or make a living, you should not be spreading your seed.

For women, if you are having sex, get protection or don't have sex.

Haha, you don't know me. Don't worry, I got plenty of original theories, ask others.

Are you upset about this thing exists, or upset about me posting it, or just generally "upset" or you are hatin?

Atlantis, if you are right and everyone must have a price, then mine is astronomical because I wouldn't date a guy I didn't like for all the money in the world!! Money cannot buy genuine affection or commitment...I'd rather share a heartfelt hug than have a guy buy me the most expensive gift on the planet! Not everyone has dollar signs in their eyes...

There is no right or wrong in this. I just posted an article, and it was for fun, but unfortunately the dating sites like this are full of dead serious people.

He never said the women in the story didn't like the guy, they just didn't know him.

Possibly, I have misunderstood your comment but it sounds very much like a stereo typical male bashing comment.

If "ALL MEN" are only after sex why do women want degenerate animals like men anyway? Why are you here? If ALL MEN are jerks only wanting sex then what does it say about women wanting men?

I'll say it again, not all men are like this but this fact goes unheard and unaknowledged.

Dave, I've seen your comments upholding both genders.. I respect that and you comments...

well this is something i couldn't go for pay to date, no thanks .I want to meet some one and have a real connection.I have a nice life with lots of pleasures dew to making the right choices. I'm 41 and noticed women like to hang out with me for who I am. It's easy for me to see when a woman is around me for my life style,thier kicked to the kerb real quick.I could never feel right paying or being paid for.it would just be awkward.

Forgive me...I assumed that since when initially asked if they would go get to know him just for fun and they all said NO, that implied they didn't 'like' him. But yet when offered money, they all had a price.

Let me rephrase for you since you seem to be a stickler for semantics...if I wouldn't go get to know a guy for free, for whatever reason, I wouldn't go get to know him for ten bucks, ten thousand bucks or ten million bucks. Yes, there are materialistic biotches out there that only wanna squeeze you guys out of whatever they can suck out of you, but not all of us are sycophants...so I disagree that everyone has a price. Just my opinion...

Anytime generalizations are made the innocent are condemned along with the guilty. This goes for both men and women. One side note is the individual making the generalization, also, looses credibility.

Why do you capitalize and put in quotation marks "ALL MEN" as if you are quoting me? I did not say "all men." So who are you quoting?

And where did I state that "all men are only after sex"??

Yes you certainly have misunderstood my comment!
and you misquoted me and completely misrepresented what I said.
(So this is how gossip gets started.)
And I did not say ALL men are only after sex.

I said "in general" we know what a man is looking for.

I did not even mention "sex."

If I wanted to state that I thought "all men are only after sex" I would have stated that.

And neither did I say that "all men are jerks!" You not only have misunderstood my comment you have written your odd assumptions (between the lines) of my comment.

Also I don't think a man is a "jerk" just because he wants sex.

I also don't think a man is a "degenerate animal" because he wants sex.

Are these things what you assume I meant? Why would you assume that?

You assume wrong and you assume too much. Please read what I write and don't assume.




Generalizations are just generalizations. They are about statistics. No one is condemning anyone unless they say "All." So if the shoe fits, wear it, if it doesn't don't take offense. People generalize all the time. Its not a crime. I did not say "all men..." because I know that is just not true.

There is more damage done by the kind of rewriting and misquoting that you have done here than by any generalization.

True, but having coffee with someone for an hour is hardly a date. Hell, give me $100 and I'll sit with and have coffee with anyone for an hour. Yes, I'm a coffee whore.
