Well, I think those are all good questions to ask men...but IMO, I think that men view some women as gold diggers primarily because women sometimes carry themselves that way. It's sad to say, but there are some women who strive to live their lives in reality based off of the ACTORS/MODELS in non-realistic VIDEOS...Everybody knows that when you see the women half dressed on tv, (for instance the DC3's and Britney Spears of the world), no one thinks anything of it. But let NayNay from down the street put on the same thing and go to the club and the men will treat her as a ho....that's just what I see. And these women think that's the type of attention that they deserve. I don't think that mentality comes from videos though, I think it comes from a lack of parenting...a lack of instilling self-esteem in ones' children enough to know that you don't have to reduce yourself to being eye candy to attract a man...And the women that enter relationships with these men wonder why they can't walk down the street together without him snapping his neck trying to look down some other girl's blouse. As far as "problematic" relationships, I believe the main issue contributing to failed relationships is lack of communication. Either partner not knowing what they truly want and just pretending to put forth a front. I can write for days on this and sorry to jump around, but as much as I'm anti-videos these days, I can't help but still point the finger at the parents and role models of the world. What are your thoughts, Diva_01...?
