    You sound like someone who used to be my step mother. She was so degrading of our whole family, and she happened to make more money than my dad.I very much resent her now. She called me a whore in front of my dad when I was 16, and in the end they got a divorce because she cheated on him...and probably mostly just because she's a bi*ch...but anyways.

    You know what society says to little girls? That she must go to school, get good grades and become educated. It also says that she should dress sexy and be with a man who will buy her what she wants. Once they get out in the real world, then they realize how crappy it is and they're either a money hungry bi*ch, or fat and lazy, or a boring and unsatisfying house wife, or a skank who is cleary way too attractive for her position which must mean that she's stupid and had sex for that position. I'm really sickened by this page and I don't even know why I'm here anymore.

    Well, she kind of has a right to want more, maybe she's looking for a man who won't call her a gold digger and says she should go kick herself. These days women can go make their own money anyways. So, if a woman is going to marry for money over working for her own money, if that's the type of woman she is, then she's not going to marry a guy for his bed.
