career-woman.jpgThis phenomenon is not only happening in the US, but gaining ground in Romania also. Every 3rd woman with higher education in Europe and America cannot find a life partner.  ‘The career woman’ is interested in her career first, and men last. Honestly speaking, men should wait in line for women like these: young, educated, good looking, and would like to spend time with an intelligent partner. Instead, these women live alone because there aren’t men suitable enough for them. For men though, it’s the opposite: they look for a less intelligent woman, not too educated, but submissive and a good homemaker. It’s not important to discuss philosophy in the kitchen, just to serve good food, right? It’s more complicated for women, who want a man at least equal to them. It is a growing problem since women become more and more educated than guys these days (sorry guys, the studies said that).

The bad part about this is that women who want to become financially and profesionally stable do not have enough time for a family like the other women do (which can only mean that men need to do their half when it comes to helping around - that would be the day!) Plus, we live in a society that puts more and more value on money, therefore women like us have to step up. That is why ‘the career woman’ would probably have a family around 35. It sounds cruel to me - I would definitely not want to have a child when I’m that age, but don’t have much of a choice. I chose a career and education way before thinking of a family, and I plan to stick to it.

The other problem that arises is the very limited pool of men who would want a partner like me, or any other woman with the same interests as mine, for that matter. We have high standards, it’s true, but it’s with reason. We know we won’t find guys that have it all, but we are always looking for the one that has the most of those traits. We are looking for at least our equal, if not better. On the other side, men feel their macho-ness is being attacked, and they can’t stand that. They hate feeling inferior to women, therefore would always choose an intellectually inferior woman…although, I’m sure that deep down they would love to be with the other type.  By choosing the more inferior partner, a man has the security she would be submissive to his will because she depends on him. Men love to be depended on. Grow up! Or should I say ‘EVOLVE!’ The Stone-Age is gone! Women can handle anything now, and can make a good living by themselves. I would recommend: if you don’t want to feel inferior, work as hard as we do to become equals, and everyone would be happy then. If not…you know what, in this modern society women won’t have any problems making a living by themselves rather than being with some ‘babosos.’

Sorry guys - you need to step up to the plate!
