Why are men so scared of successful, attractive, single women? (dailymail.co.uk)

Because even millionaire bombshells need something to get upset about, and complaining about anything else would have been utterly ridiculous.


Because a man's genes have a better chance of carrying on when the mother of his children is primarily focused on his children and not on her business. Duh.

A better question, with a less obvious answer: why is an article from Daily Mail on news.yc front page?


I don't find these evolutionary arguments convincing.


"(...) I don't meet many men I'm attracted to who are also on the same level as myself. (...)"

According to this article:

# Rich mens wants: single attractive women.

# Rich women wants: single attractive AND rich men.

No wonder why they have a hard time finding a partner.
