Mexican girls like white guys.

Who do the white girls like?
White guys with more money than her family has. Or maybe black professional athletes, musicians, like the Kardashians. I'm not saying that these relationships end up lasting long enough to see the kids start kindergarten.
This thread is wild.

I took your words as you wrote them. And yes, I agree they were wrong.
I am not implying that Mexicans are inferior, and I think it's okay for educated women to be picky.

Many of my comments are meant to be a response to Marcus's double standard.
Doubting Thomas I think you're starting to see how liberal political correctness makes it impossible to have an honest conversation about things as they really are. As a white man who has lived in Latin America and at BYU, most of us know very well the difference in our market value in these two dating scenes. But you can't state the obvious because this hurts liberal snowflake feelings and you'll be disparaged and censored as a racist, sexist, mysoginist, homphobe.
The best part about this is waiting four years to see how all the crazy apocalyptic predictions made by the fear mongering idiots in Right Wing media turned out to be painfully wrong...Gasoline would hit $10/gallon. Hyperinflation would ensue.

Yes, DT. Take advice from a man who absolutely detests his wife and only lives because he loves his kids (as if that’s some measure of success).

Because 2-income earners are now setting house prices, and a man making less money might mean she pays him alimony.
I'd like to see an example of this ever actually happening.

If a woman makes $200k/year and she's even slightly attractive, she's not going to be willing to get into a relationship with any man who makes less than that. These kind of women often find themselves alone because no man has much to offer her.
Stereotyping, misogyny and bigotry, all rolled into one obnoxious statement. Compliments, Ajax.

Meanwhile, to revisit a separation that you were just commenting on last month: “… according to Celebrity Net Worth, Gisele Bündchen's net worth is $400 million, which is almost double what her husband Tom Brady is worth.

Giselle isn't paying Tom alimony. And any man who is successful enough in his own career to be good enough for her isn't going to be willing to give up his career to be her househusband. Any man willing to be her househusband won't be good enough for her.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

She may prefer to partner with someone who would remain more committed to their children.

He already has a 15 year old son from a relationship that he walked away from.

Really, so for the sake of her children she divorced their biological Dad? Now she's going to go find a stepdad who will be more committed to them? That's complete nonsense. She divorced Tom Brady because she didn't get what she wanted for herself. She inarguably did it for herself and her immediate self-interests, not for the sake of her kids.

And this is one of the most damaging misinformation revenge capmaigns too many women have carried out against their baby Daddy. They convince the children that their Dad walked away from the marriage because he didn't want the kids. When the reality is that the mother unilaterally took the kids away from their father because he wouldn't agree to her terms for a relationship. These kids grow up hating their father and thinking he doesn't love them, and from what I've seen (at least in my own culture and community) that is rarely ever true.

Yup. No surprise to me. Who would want to spend their lives with someone whose male ego (such a delicate little thing) was always on the lookout for a chance to resent being treated as his partner's inferior?

I would enjoy dating an attractive (or an average-looking) woman with more academic accomplishments than me, but I probably have better odds of winning the lottery.
The question is, however, whether she would enjoy it too. That's the point you need to concentrate on.

Anyways, Marcus shouldn't be accusing me of treating women like objects, would you agree?
Nope. I think he is on the right lines. You just don't understand how your posts look to most people, I suspect.

It can work that way (for commitment to the kids). It’s not as if Brady gets to play only in home games. And I don’t think that he wants to return to playing simply for charitable reasons. I suspect he is satisfying his own self-interest, too. Do you disagree?

His ex (Bridget Moynahan) ended up marrying a fellow with three of his own sons. They made the commitment and made it work. And Brady’s 15 year old son from his ex-relationship has a good relationship with his biological father.

She may prefer to partner with someone who would remain more committed to their children.

He didn’t insist on staying with Moynihan, even after finding out she was pregnant.

If his career requirements were a stressor on either the general relationship or his responsibility to his kids, and he publicly announced that he was retiring in part for those reasons, what should we take away from his sudden decision to reverse that plan?

When the reality is that the mother unilaterally took the kids away from their father because he wouldn't agree to her terms for a relationship. These kids grow up hating their father and thinking he doesn't love them, and from what I've seen (at least in my own culture and community) that is rarely ever true.
That didn’t happen the first time around for Brady. I suspect that it won’t happen that way the second time around, either.

Your comment does make me wonder how you’ve become so cynical, anyway.
