Well, I have my own issues with PEOPLE in general, and yes various locations ATTRACT certain types of people! California is so expensive to live in, woman (and men) have to resort to all sorts of things to support themselves. A majority go into the sex business! Now, talk about selling you soul!!
As for woman liberating themselves from these stereotypes, I never said that THOSE women what to be liberated! THOSE types like THAT kind of attention.
I hate to use ME as an example, but here it goes: I have been fighting for 12 years to be completely independent, to be able to pay my own bills and know that I DON'T need a man to survive (or do laps dances and such for a pay check) That doesn't mean however, that I don't want a man that could and would pay all the bills! I mean, if I was going to have a family, I certainly would want to raise my own kids. That doesn't mean I would be a stay at home mom/housewife forever! Dear god I would get so bored with that life!!!! But I wouldn't want to pop the kid out and run off to run some fortune 500 as the CEO either.
So even me, the preachess of INDEPENDENCE expects that if marriage was involved, that the man would take on the traditional role of family provider because a part of me wants to take on the traditional role the woman plays but with the 21st century twist- that it is not a permanent role. I mean really, the days of leave it to beaver are over- or did they really ever exist in the first place? Well, for the upper middle classes it did, and still does. The OC attracts some of the highest paying career seekers, and these MEN marry their pretty little wives that play the little wife role. The OC MOM. Unfortunately, until you men can start giving birth yourselves, the concept of what a woman is suppose to do in her life and what a man is suppose to do in his, will never fully change, and maybe GOD made it that way (and I'm atheist).
Now in your case, you've probably already been married and had kids, so of course you probably never what to take on that traditional role again- very fine. Just make sure that the lady you date wants the same thing as you because otherwise it will never work. I'm not saying THOSE types of women you described are the way they are because they want to have families, etc., 90% chance they are just stereo typical women that starve themselves and live at the gym and they BELIEVE that they deserve the world handed to them for that. Finding someone is simply tough- good luck
I dare say it does make a difference where one lives. Los Angeles and Orange County are literally full of such women. With apologies to you, good thing most of them are blondes and I prefer brunettes (now there's another gross generalization for you to pounce on). I never noticed any predominance of this type of woman in the Midwest or the East Coast where I have also lived.
If women are to be truly liberated, then they need to release themselves from the streotypes they say society has acclimated them to. I came from sectors of society where women were given role models that made them strive to be intelligent and independent, not Barbie dolls that feel they need to be taken care of. What absolute rubbish in today's society... a fall back to the 50's?
I certainly don't hate a woman who likes an occasional box of chocolates (and shares them), but I don't give cut flowers (too many ecological issues). Heck, I don't hate anybody. And not all SoCal women fall into this stereotype... if they did, I wouldn't continue to live here (or do I stay just for the great diving?). But MANY of them do. And there are certainly equibvalent stereotypes for many of the LA LA Land guys.
I really hate the way you claim it is just SoCal or L.A. women- it is not the location, but the type you find yourself attracted to. Those type of woman are EVERYWHERE. And their attitudes are based on what society tells them anyways. Women are taught form little girls that if they are feminine and pretty that they will be taken care of- ah, fairy tales, Barbie dolls, beauty contests. Girls are STILL being taught that it is their looks (and their soul) that will support them- a man will marry them and take care of them, therefore they EXPECT a man to pay for everything.
But don't hate a good woman if she expects flowers and chocolates- that's the problem nowadays, those kind of women ruin it for the "normal" minded female that just likes a bit of romance now and then.
You shouldn't make us all sound so BAD!
