Men should start judging women's success too.

The ambitious career woman may be more difficult to get along with. Or, maybe not. She shouldn't necessarily be written off. The most important thing is compatibility. If you're compatible, and she is an ambitious career woman, then fine.

I'd say it's not a good comparison because they are fictional and making judgments about human nature based on them is likely to leave you super out of touch with actual reality.

It's like judging every powerful woman in the context of the Devil Wears Prada...........

That's how I felt as well.

SAYS YOU, the people who always say 'it isn't a deal breaker'. By the time I need to know 'isn't a deal breaker', I'll be hearing it from my wife about something fun!

I definitely prefer it if a man recognises my achievements (as pathetic as they are) and isn't threatened by them. Then again, most of my successes aren't career/financial based - I'd prefer to live on a smaller wage but have time for my family and friends than spend all my time working for a huge wage. Most of my personal goals though aren't career-orientated, I just want to be good at what I do, have a family of my own, and be seen as a good person who people look up to.

That being said, I understand the importance of having your own car (or form of transportation), having a job and either living away from home or contributing financially to the household expenses. Mainly because I know how hard it is to do these things alone.

Many women who go to a lot of effort to be successful in their careers often find themselves beyond the age when many man would pick them.









You don't see a whole lot of similarly successful women getting much arm candy in their old age.

I'm sure some of them have enjoyed the marvels of modern medicine,men are also doing that more now.Now there are ads for men's lotions and moisturizers. Women are more likely to use sunscreen on their faces.I've seen other women slathering it on but not the guys.
My ex never used sunscreen, got exposed to it all the time.He wrinkled up really bad once he got about 50.His sister has the same coloring but has a beauty regime,she looks ten years younger than him.They are two years apart.

Well, okay. Those men have properly judged their cougars' professional successes.

If you make enough money, you can afford good plastic surgeons. Look at Demi Moore.

Simply using cold water on your face/head all the time works better than all that s**t combined.

There are successful women out there that date less successful men.

After my stint in an abusive marriage, i prefer men that are less successful then me and the men i am attracted to also are what society says are not as attractive as me. My earning capacity is huge at the moment but i am studying instead, and in a year when i am working as a paleontologist, i will be on month long placements to remote locations. I will be on the financial level where i will not actually have to worry about money and can afford to support my man as a stay at home partner.

I would prefer to be the bread winner and have a partner who compliments our relationship with my children then trying to be "successful". I do however need a partner who is intellectually stimulating and will continue work enough so that they get out of the house to keep their independence and total dependency is unattractive.

Just my 2 cents anyway.

Cold water doesn't do anything to block UV light.

What's unattractive about total dependency?
