From what I see there are just as many men caught up in the pursuit of material stuff as there are women.

There are a lot - true - I think some poster just admitted he used to wear a rolex and drive expensive new german car - I have rarely seen a man want a big flashy house though with flashy kitchens and countertops ( I am talking outside of san francisco) - that is most likely to be princess from my experience in the southeast - many towns there haven't went metrosexual like the big western or northeastern cities and the spending is mostly done by princess and the shopping and clothes buying by princess and her mini me clone - the guy still the mule working himself to death.

But I'm really referring to the intensity of your feeling on this subject - it comes up all the time in your posts.

Feelings change - what can I say - Even Housing Panic Blog is constantly railing against suzanne - the princess realtor in that video - they have posted that video like 4 times now - are you to infer housing panic blog guy hates women named suzanne? Princess overspends - she overspends on housing and kitchens far more than men from my experience in the southeast in the towns I frequent and lived - princess and prince both overspend on cars and trinkets and jewelry and rolex watches and credit cards and junk at walmart - but I thought the big talk around here was houses - and on houses I firmly put the majority of that on princess not prince. Whats the point? Suzanne researched this (that has happened to a lot of my friends - guy KNOWS they cant buy that house - but wife HAS to have it!)

That suggests some bad personal experiences.

Lots of people here slam bernanke and greenspan and Fed Yellin day after day post after post - did they have bad personal experiences with economics professors? - your analogy doesn't hold up.

HAHA! Its all how you take life eh - princess spending herself into oblivion is what I ridicule because just like in that video many of my friends/family members who are under the debt hammer is because of the princess - not the prince from my experience - yours is maybe different - that is how I see it though.

My advice is, if you dislike a certain kind of woman, then look for a different kind (there are all types out there). If you don't want one at all, why go on about them?

Mrs. Right can come on by - and walk right on out - no thanks - I have seen too many failures in this society - I am cured - it aint about the women - its the system/society we have structured around us - I am trying to save the people who haven't had the whammy put on them by the court system in this country thanks to greedy divorce lawyer. A preacher once told me a story about starfish Gib - millions had washed up on the beach dying and he was throwing them back into the ocean before they perished - some guy came up to this fool and said there are millions - they are all going to die - why are you throwing them back into the ocean - the preacher picked up another starfish and said NOT THIS ONE and tossed him back into the sea where he lived happily ever after - hehe.
