    Why is wanting a person with money even in the same ballpark of bad as lying to people to get them into bed?

    Just because I don’t understand or share the preference of someone doesn’t mean I want them to get used like a fleshlight.

    Is it seriously your opinion that a person wanting someone with money is a bad human being who deserves to be treated like what your workmate did?

    This is simply misogyny. And people are ultra casual about it. That’s seriously scary. I wonder what other partner preferences you think makes women basically lose their right to be treated with a baseline of respect.

      No, these are very select types of people I am talking about. I certainly never categorised all women as you infer. That is why I said “that situation”. There are still some women swayed by money and power. There are still some women who are waiting for “Prince Charming”. These people exist and no amount of “respect” is gong to change that.

      You have also confused opinion with experience. Do you think its healthy for people to allow a man to behave this way to themselves? Have you daughters? Have you ever had to sit her down and explain that not all guys are great? And that she can do some things (that she should not have to do) to protect herself from emotional and physical harm.

        This is a quote from you where you put women who want men with money on the same level as a guy exploiting them through manipulation:

        My old workmate used to tell women he was a pilot. […] but also bad on the women who dribble over money and power. Nobody was a great human being in that situation.

        I am still waiting for your explanation on why women who want a guy with money are “bad”.

            So I can assume every man who wants an attractive and/or young(er) woman is also a bad human being who deserves to get manipulated and lied to for whatever reason. Got it!
