    Default Woman Are Attracted To Men with Money Study Concludes

    And I thought it was for my good looks......

    Woman Are Attracted To Men with Money Study Concludes
    "I'm Juxtaposing" by Nkrumah Steward, creator of 8BM.com
    Researchers at the University of Central Lancashire just did a study on seexual behavior. It was the largest study of its kind.
    They asked almost 30,000 people from 170 countries a bunch of questions and found out that the more money a man makes the more seex he has.
    Gasp.
    The more money he makes the more opportunity he has to have seex with a wider variety of partners too.
    Blasphemy!
    Conversely they discovered through countless hours of painstaking research and analysis of the data that the more broke and busted a man is financially, the less seex he has and the fewer women he has a chance to bed.
    Hmmm. You don’t say?
    They even went on to say that women seem to be more attracted to men with money and resources and not so much attracted to men that don’t have money and resources.
    Damn. When did this come out? I hadn’t heard any of this before.
    And here is the kicker. Are you ready?
    Their research also concluded that women do not seem to benefit one bit from having money. Regardless of how much money and resources they have at their disposal because men are still primarily concerned about their looks.
    Hold up. I need to take a seat here. All of this information coming at me so fast is making me light headed.
    Researchers figure that all of this must have something to do with teh fact that men who make more money tend to be more aggressive and assertive and therefore it must somehow indirectly stimulate their libido.
    Yeah, that sounds about right.
    There must be a hormonal component to all of this that is being over looked.
    Not.
    All of this is new information is going to submitted for publication in the journal of seexual behavior because most people are like myself and had no clue this was how things worked before someone put the science behind it.
    I always thought that women looked for men of good character, values, to be the father of her children, to raise a family with.
    But I guess I was wrong. Women just want to f*ck men with money.
    And that is consistent the world over, apparently.
    Imagine that?
    I am willing to stake it all on the fact that this has been the case since shit stank.
    Women like nice things.
    You know what, this isn’t news to anyone. This is just the first time it has been documented in scientific research.
    You know how scientists are.
    Look for their next study which will find that geeks are virgins longer than jocks and that attractive girls get hit on more often that ugly girls.

    Who are 'women'? Can we be more specific here. I bet you people are different in their preferences depending on many many things. I think what men have to understand is that women are PERSONS!!! Not some kind of candy machine that needs the right coins.

    I wouldn't say women are attracted to money, I'd say they're more attracted to men that have things that require money to own. A man with just lots and lots of stock and investments but little to show for it is not really going to be a lady-killer.

    Actually I think the difference between women willing to bed rich men but not the other way around (at least to nearly to the same degree) is mostly practical; men actually need to be aroused to perform in the sack, and thus it is rather more difficult for most of them to opportunistically play gigolo to filthy rich but ugly as sin old ladies than it is the other way around...

    Or at least that's how my mother analyzed it. Makes sense if you ask me.

    More generally speaking it's hardly news to anyone that money and power make and have always made good aphrodisiacs, and seem to make up for many shortcomings of appereance or personality. Just ask Clinton, or Catherine the Great, or...
    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

    I hope all these 'educated' researchers didn't spend much money on producing this study.

    And BP, before you go make statements like that, I suggest you watch the movie 'Kingpin'. Then, when you understand fully what you're saying, make that statement again. I want to puke (and laugh) all over again just thinking of it...

    Has it ever dawned on anyone doing this study, that it's already been done, hundreds of times in the animal kingdom, and all they did was prove that at the end of the day, humans are animals?

    In species where males act as providers, females ALWAYS seek males who display those traits in the male that indicate his ability to provide. Frequently, it takes precedence over even his ability to demonstrate his fitness as an individual, although it's difficult to separate the two as males are pre-programmed to put their lives on the line to get the best feeding grounds established as their territories, all in an effort to... shocker.... attract mates.

    No no no...we had to fund this study (I'm sure it was done at a University...those bastions of practial brilliance). But since someone with a PhD and half a dozen sycophantic grad students came up with this, it must be true!

    I think this came about because it was time to apply for more grants myself.

    “Hey, Jaime (note the androgynous name here, I’m not being sexist), what do you think would be a good study we can pass off for brilliance tomorrow?”

    “I don’t know Pat (again, I’m such a good boy!). Ooo…how about how women like men with money?”

    “Isn’t that stereotyping?”

    “Don’t worry about that part. Since we are at a University, no one can attack either our ideology (which I might add is always perfect. Just ask us!), or our credentials.”

    “Brilliant… Now where is that Guinness?”

    I hope you enjoyed my little skit.

    I also think, if you have money, you need to show it off to attract. It can't just be sitting in the back and you are living in a hovel, miserable and alone.

    Hehehe, good one Azi. Reminds me of when Opus (from Bloom County) wrote away to the first Bush administration for a grant for research dollars for 'star wars defense technology' and he and Milo made footage of a UFO getting blown up with a frisbee, some sparklers, some firecrackers and Bill the Cat as the alien.

    So some guy got a lot of money, to find out that women are attracted to guys with a lot of money?

    Well the guy who got the money to attracts the ladies probably thinks it's worth it! And if we have made even one life a little better isn't it worth it?

    you didn't need to tell me that. Irregardless, everyone is more attractive prospect if they have money, even if they:

    A. Never Worked For it
    B. Ugly as hell

    Thankfully I fall into the first example. BUT woman aren't stupid, money isn't everything, I could easily be cut off of the piggy bank and still find happiness. Everyone doesn't want to work, but we have to, thats life, and whoever did this study needs to get kicked in the box a few times.

    this is why i dont date

    when i want female companionship il go out and get a whore
    it will probably save more money in the long run

    till then - i use my hand for fun and my friends for conversation

    and i have money - i just wont play the game
    i go to restaurants when I want if i'm paying

    Tuff, i understand you completely when you say you don't want to date. I have the same feelings, sometimes it goes away and I want to again because I want to be like other people.

    Yep, friends are better then mates in most cases, because if you start a conversation with a mate then you will not be as free usully as you are with friends.

    I like the idea of never settling down, seeing as how crappy women's characters are wherever I go. I admit I have met ones that would be perfect in every way, but they are almost always taken by their first boyfriend(who they never leave no matter what).

    And yes whores are great as long as they are clean and high class.
