We want equals. Men want an accessory.

So she admits she's ugly. I doubt she would settle for a guy who is equally as ugly as she is.

By the way, LOL@blocking out the cat's face.

If the world’s richest person were a woman, she’d still complain about how there are no men “on her level”

And proceed to die single, alone, and childless

Noise cancelling headphones. Just keep the battery charged because they'll be working overtime in the house :-)

(Also, I wonder if this is why older guys seem to be at peace with their wives. Once you've lost your hearing, you can genuinely ignore them and they can't be upset that you're ignoring them!)

Goes on to explain how high maintenance she is….

“They want more high maintenance women”

Hate to break it to you, but I don’t think you understand that terminology lady.

As an aside, I can count on one finger the number of women that I have ever met that are actually hilarious. To properly develop a sense of humor you typically need to have suffered quite a bit in life; which of course excludes almost all modern women.

Also, YOU don’t get to determine that you are hilarious, smart etc…. That’s for other people to judge relative to others.

Only an inherently retarded person would assume that men want an accessory because they don't prioritize accomplishments in mate selection.

We want equals.

No you don't. You really want a superior man. That's why if you meet an "equal" you challenge him to exhaustion. So that he becomes the superior man that you really want.

What the second lady didn't realize is that people like the OP are doubly sucky partners. Their income, education, and assets make no material difference to the guy (the rich ones they're going after) compared to the housewife or cute barista. Meanwhile her attitude and entitlement will be that of a woman making a half a million. If your income is supposed to be a rounding error compared to your husband's, then yeah, all of your accomplishments are meaningless and he's better served finding a woman who at least understands that and won't demand to keep up the delusion that you're both equal.

A little weekend humor, which I fully intend to keep in my back pocket to use on my own wife!

The respondent is partly on the right track with these excerpts:

softer

doesn't challenge them or compete with them

...but the rest is simultaneously manipulative shaming language against men and a coping strategy.
