They are class shaming now ladies, watch out

I installed some dating apps a while ago and now the men are the new gold diggers, they ask me what part of the city do I live in? How much money I make? and after revealing I lived in the poorer side of the city I got an insane rant about how they "work hard to live good" and pretty much implied I was beneath them, then stopped replying to me. Another guy asked me for money in order to keep talking to him because he was "too handsome" and his time was worth money, AGAIN IMPLYING I WAS BENEATH THEM some other guy was put down by the fact I take the bus and don't have a car, other guys don't want nothing to do with you if you earning poverty level or no salary at all. It wasn't like this before just a few years ago, and it pretty much feels like entitlement, women with disabilities don't earn money as normal people do BUT if you disclose you have a disability then they will leave too, there's no winning. I uninstalled all apps, anyone else notice this new trend?

Men have always been parasites and users. They think their dick is gold and they deserve a paying slave in return.

I experimented by saying I was unemployed and they immediately latched on with suggestions about how they could use me as either their coffee-fetcher to where they worked 50 miles away, their maid, new nanny, book-keeper for their business, or seemed testerical, asking "you can get a part-time job, right? are you going to study or anything??". They were all insanely panicky, as if I was on the app to marry and move in with them.

They clearly don't want a partner, companion, conversation or friend. They all, no matter how scrubby, think they deserve a working trophy wife. Disabled and unemployed women are basically rental cars to men. Thrash them and return them.

Yeah. I mean I'm a femcel but I've definitely noticed it and it seems to be in retaliation to women being more vocal about what they expect from men.

Men will even shit on your degree. They're turned off by any degree that's not STEM because it's "useless" and "doesn't make money".

I feel like the men of my community have always been clear that they want a high maintenance woman—one that always has acrylics, false lashes, trendy clothes etc.

These superficial expectations are ways of sneakily weeding out poor and mentally ill women that can't afford to or don't have the mental capacity to keep up with all of that shit.

And the standards are only getting higher as the world gets more shallow and expensive. Suifuel for real.

So true. I’ve been shamed by STEM bros for not having a degree in STEM too. One even told me everyone should be in STEM and if they’re in another field they’re just stupid. I was like, sir? If the entire world was in STEM, how would things work? They’re so stupid.

I can’t stand the narcissistic STEM bros. They’re all raging misogynists. There’s a reason why people call it “Incel Faculty”

I never really connected the long acrylic nails, makeup, and hair is done to guys filtering poor women out, I thought it was just a feminine thing they are attracted to? Guess I don't know shit at all, but I did live in Miami (a highly superficial city) and I never had acrylic nails, jewelry, trendy clothes, and yes I was constantly ignored, they do the same to my sister, they don't want poor chicks at all...

It's probably just the way I perceive things but I genuinely feel that a lot of the things people find attractive are just subconscious markers of health and wealth.

Nice teeth = brush teeth regularly - good mental health. Has access to proper dental care - money. Didn't need braces - good genetics.

Shapely body/Gym Body = has a good diet - no issues with food (eating disorder binge or restriction). Can afford a gym membership - money. Is organised enough to have time for gym - good mental health. Curves - good genetics for fat distribution.

This entire world is fucked.

That's very interesting, I guess I never thought about it like that. I assumed that men were attracted to the feminine stereotypes too, I think most of them are, but there's also truth to what you are saying here. I think a lot of men want a personal chef and maid before they want an intimate relationship. They want a mommy to baby them, but they themselves offer nothing in return. Men are out here like "Let's split the bill" with every woman they meet, and they expect the traditional "housewife" from her. I feel like it's common sense to everyone that a housewife is not going to split the bill. Men are just super greedy.

This is not a new trend. #ThePinkPill.

Stacy can live in a dented trash can underneath a broken bridge in the hood and more often than not they will be very mindful with how they talk to her.

Men modulate their treatment of women based on appearance. It is as grotesque as it sounds.

Please do not allow men the amount of air time required to start mouthing off. Its an app just block, no response. You are a person and you don't deserve verbal abuse over any of this.

Also report their accounts. Sometimes they get kicked off apps altogether. If they can't behave with civility while sniffing your way for some sex, the consequences of their actions is not your problem

This male goldigging thing isnt new to some of us but as low value men dominate male social media, mimicking Kevin Samuel Queens and the like, you see it creeping into other communities

On /r/ThePinkPills, I dubbed it The 50/50 Scam. Can't wait til we can flair again, it will make you sick how common this is

Another guy asked me for money in order to keep talking to him because he was "too handsome" and his time was worth money

Honestly, I think that this might’ve been a scam or even a dog whistle for prostitution ngl

maybe, I don't know what's what anymore lol

Im starting to think every misogynistic claim is projection. Women only interested in Chads? Projection. Gold diggers? Projection. Stupid? Well, have you talked to men lately?

Also on the topic of opportunistic males with no conscience - I'm always expected to be an entertainer and free therapeut, but when I ask for the same in return, it's always "nah, too much work, not worth it, better look for another victim." Then they high five each other on successfully have used yet another woman.

Yep, men are now open gold diggers. I posed an article about it a few days ago: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/25/millennial-men-want-spouses-to-help-pay-off-debt.html

Just read it, those numbers are insane, my mom is selling her house and she says only female buyers are coming to see the house without sight of any husband, man or boyfriend, men are completely checked out so it seems...

Yes I definitely noticed this, you and everyone else on this post have summarised all the points I've noticed perfectly. Men have always been vile leeches but it is so abundantly obvious with the modern era of dating apps and social media. A lot of the women I notice them attaching 'worth' to and treating with a modicum of respect are always of a certain class. Most if not all men now expect a beautiful wife who works non stop and dotes on them. It's ridiculous and dehumanizing but unsurprising considering how delusional men are.

I think what disgusts me the most, as you've mentioned in your post is how they deem women who are poor, women who are disabled etc as lesser or beneath them. It is appalling. Men, all men value prestige and power. If a woman is lacking in his eyes he'll make sure to let her know, either by treating her as such, using her and then dumping her once she no longer can appease his pathetic ego. I've seen numerous times in my own life and those around me, when a woman shows apparent wealth for example with her clothing choices, her job, her skin, her hair, even those she surrounds herself with every single man will suddenly see her as his equal. Even when he isn't. Which is the case most of the time. It is cruel. What I also noted is that those type of women usually have access to all of that because of the family they were born into, a lot of the time because of nepotism especially. If you're born into a certain class then it'll be a lot easier to climb up the ranks, but I'm going off on a tangent here, it's just foul but do men care? No, all they care about is themselves.

People constantly rant and rave online and off about women's apparent sky high standards, but in reality it simply isn't the case. Every time I've encountered a poor man, a man struggling in some way they have a woman by their side, doting on them like they're a child. Whenever I encounter women in the same pool, poor, unemployed etc, there's rarely a man there unless he can benefit from her in some way. I have never EVER encountered a man willing to tend to the needs of his wife, girlfriend, without expecting more in return or holding resentment towards her.

It’s a tale as old as time, lol.

Jane Austen’s novels often portray a lot of gold digging and shallow, snobbish, and vacuous society climber male characters. I love how she was always so unreserved about showing that such men were as much wealth-seeking and empty-headed as ANY similar woman every thought to be, lol.

There’s also a BBC series, The Buccaneers (based on the novel by Edith Wharton), set much later in the 1800s, about British landed gentry who have nothing left but their names, basically marketing themselves off to get their hands on the money from the families of their wealthy American wives:

The story revolves around five wealthy and ambitious American girls, their guardians, and the titled, landed, but impoverished Englishmen who marry them as the girls participate in the London Season. As the novel progresses, the plot follows Nan and her marriage to the Duke of Tintagel.

The novel begins with three socially ambitious families looking for the status needed for their daughters to live successful lives, complete with European titles. The young women's fathers' money is very attractive to European aristocrats to maintain their version of wealth: collections of art, property, and societal status
