I feel as a man, get a legit source of income or any job that pays you average, build your social, emotional and intelligence quotient then be smart. No matter how much a lady earns she’ll never trespass talk more of looking down on you except she’s not ready for relationship. Men with such high coordination are scarce. So I don’t think I’ll be intimidated at any lady because she’s earning more than me. Never! I’m not in competition 11 Likes 2 Shares |

I worked with many of them. They dont even see their fellow male colleagues at work as their equal or levels. They are all aiming for men who earn more than them or have gone far in their careers. But most of those men are not even looking for careers women or they just keep using and dumping them. Working class women ronu o 18 Likes 4 Shares |

This is and will forever always be the truth. As the Pansophist has correctly espoused, hypergamy is a woman's biggest ally and enemy. No matter the level that a woman attains, she'll always want better. Always better, never equal, never lower, never settle. Always better. When most women rise to the point where they out earn majority of the men in society, the pool of men available to them shrinks drastically. This means that there's very little men for them to choose from and competition with other women becomes stiffer! This is the direct opposite for men. Men earn money to be able to (singlehandedly, if possible) afford a family. Women earn more money so that they can prim themselves like birdies for even better men. When these men don't exist, there's going to be a problem. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Zigzagman: Your statement shows that you don't understand Lagos life. Being a banker alone won't give you room to socialize, the little time you have is weekend, of which she would do laundry, go to the saloon and do 1 or 2 round. And even if they get to start dating a guy, seeing him becomes another issue, because she is occupied all through the week and weekend. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

In as much as most men wants to marry an educated woman, but the problem is that educated and exposed women are rebellious, particularly if she is even independent and earns good pay. That is why most or majority of men prefers marrying a younger and woman from an average home with little salary, than marrying a lady few years younger than them that earns more. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Zigzagman: No wonder they have dating problems. Most of them are not beautiful, yet they refuse to make themselves look desirable; thinking its all about wigs or "human hair". They don't even know what a deodorant is (you know what I mean). Besides, what does it mean to be "high earners"? Nor be in naira? |

I did not watch the video however would lend my two cents to the topic. Dating and finding a suitable mate becomes a real problem for working women as they grow older. And one of the major issues is the time to find a potential husband and cultivate a meaningful relationship. Another thing is that most of their mates are married and those unmarried want younger girls not working or just coming up at their jobs so they can rely on them to cover up the slack at home. Using myself as an example, if I did not have my husband before getting a job (we got married shortly after the job), I honestly doubt I would be married today. I neither have the time nor patience to cultivate a relationship now. If I managed to find a man today, cancelled dates and infrequent calls would have chased him away. Because I do not have the time, I cannot even properly vet him (physically, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and financially) to know if he is the one. If I even managed to vet him, I do have the time and patience for the tweaking needed to have a smooth relationship. Also, if we have lived in a certain way till our mid-thirties or older, it would be an herculean task to mould & fit ourselves into one another. One might wonder how marriages are sustained with such a schedule; well you have a rhythm. After church, we can stop at Cold Stone and gist for 10mins before going home; I am not trying to vet him, I am relaxed. After work on Friday, we can branch to an eatery and grab dinner in 45mins; he is not trying to find out if I am a feminist or not so he is relaxed. WhatsApp chats or a 2mins call to check up on each other during the day. The days we have to work freaking late, we understand that it is the wicked 'capitalists' and a backrub and a peck makes the other person feel loved. Ideally, I would often advise a lady looking at building a career or working for a long time or a demanding job to find a mate young and build a relationship on a solid foundation. When the job becomes demanding (and it would be), both of you can do the dance of adjustment without much drama (considering you are both sensible people). The advise of 'build your career to a stage before getting married' is really pulling the cart before the horse. You have decades to build your career; like a person I admire said, it is much easier to juggle your job and childcare when you are at the bottom. When you get to the middle and top, there is a fear of missing our that you want to be present in important 'occasions'; you want to be present in the rooms where decisions are taken; which has an opportunity cost. 16 Likes 4 Shares |

bukatyne:You’re fortunate. I don’t think busy work schedules could make it difficult for a lady to commit to a meaningful relationship. Nah. Whatever is important to you, you’ll definitely make up time for it or find ways around it. So it’s a matter of what one prioritizes. Another thing is, you may not get to have a supportive spouse, who’ll push you towards your ambitions after you get married. It’s difficult to achieve one’s ambitions with growing kids and an unfulfilled spouse. My wife had always been a workaholic wanting to climb up the corporate ladder, running eight to sixes every working day…I supported her. At some point she envied me for having the luxury of working from anywhere I chose and having a good deal of time with the kids. Today she’s running her business smoothly with utmost fulfillment and time for family. I didn’t force her to change her mind. She just saw what she could be missing by my lifestyle. That was how she strategically resigned and ported. I’ll simply advice any financially stable lady to get her priorities right and keep her heads straight. It’s either she settles with a compatible person who’ll be supportive, or refactor her ideals to suit her current realities. 5 Likes 1 Share |
