  • Thanks DX.

    Also... Candace Owens, JK Rowling, and all Republicans are mortified to learn there is at least one gender neutral bathroom in their house. Sometimes two or more, depending on how wealthy they are.

    • So, Dr. Mrs. and I were having a discussion today and we want others' input. Warning: the tacit assumption here is that men and women do not differ in terms of their likelihood to be vain, short-sighted, self-absorbed, or creepy. They merely express it differently either due to social opportunities or other differences. If you think women are better then men for god's sake stop reading now.

      OK, so: rich guy gets divorced -- the Tradition is he goes out and buys himself a cultured, lovely lass 25+ years younger than the first wife. All well and good. But the rich ex-wife does not typically do this unless she's Demi Moore. So the question is: what does she do?

      We're not all that interested in what women (or men) actually do. We want to find the stereotype of what women do that is the equivalent of the guy playing Brillantmont whack-a-mole.

      We came up with three hypothetical answers, but are not sure if any of them carry more social "credibility":

      1. Mergers & Acquisitions. Hunter/killer for an even larger fortune than the one you have amassed for yourself, ideally with a dude so close to death's door you won't have to endure his ooky presence long before all this can be yours.

      2. Push your kid. Buy your idiot son a Senate seat. Make the shining produce of your vagina the talk of the town.

      3. Become a finance saint. Create a hospital or a research fund or whatever and buy yourself a halo. Become a philanthropist who sh-ts rainbows and social justice.

      Now, note that the guy could do all of this too, so the first question is are women even more likely to be thought of as doing any of these things than men? Our guesses are: 1. Yes, 2. Kind of, and 3. No. But even if we're right and option 1 is most likely it doesn't have that same titillating certainty that Take Your Next Wife on a Play Date does.

      Any takers? Are we missing the obvious?

      • Stereotype in my mind is the same as men. Find some young stud and shag him until she grows bored.

        What they actually do, my guess is none of the above.
        1. More likely than the others
        2. They would make sure the kid got through a great college if under 20. Otherwise not a thing.
        3. Don’t see that.

        Now, interestingly, my wife thinks it’s most likely 3. Otherwise it depends on who the breadwinner is. If the wife is just a knobwetter, then she’ll be more likely to do things the dip**** husband never “gave his permission to spend” money on. If they’re equal, definitely #3 but just quietly do good.


        Anyways, it’s interesting we different so much in our answers. Not really sure what to make of that.

          I'm assuming a woman who is exactly analogous to Midlife Crisis Man: very successful in her own right and suddenly available.

          I also wonder whether it would be different if the circumstance of availability changes:

          a. widowed
          b. amicably divorced
          c. acrimoniously divorced

          MCM seems more likely to jump to the F-ck Bunnies as the situation becomes more tawdry (with Giuliani you extend it to "d. acrimoniously divorced own cousin"). Is MCW?

          Again I'm looking for the stereotype, not what they actually do which presumably cannot be known since the first thing money -- real money, not money as portrayed on media -- buys you is privacy.

          • One thing I hate about talking about a breast augmentation with cis women: inevitably, I get someone who says "well, I have large breasts and I'm unhappy, so you don't get to be happy either." It's never felt like "my body, my choice" applies to trans women.

              I get that it’s frustrating to hear that. I wonder if they are trying to commiserate with you and relate to you- as in, hey I have something I dislike about my body too? I dunno. It’s not an unusual human behavior.

              i admit, I wish mine were smaller but I generally don’t talk to people about it, I guess. It comes up now and then when a guy makes a dumb comment

              • A. My breasts will be augmented sometime late December, early January.

                B. It is Transgender Awareness Week, so... hi. I am cute and smoochable. Evidence: https://www.instagram.com/p/CHl2j6vH-_7/
