99.9%  of the RW wanting to create a family and have babies will  want her children to receive a higher education.   Thus, a man who downplays education could be sending bad vibes to the object of his affection.

I guess there you have your answer for why RW look for educated men. So they don't have to listen to this nonsense - education is bad for you - at home.

Oh, you are a bad, bad girl!!!  :o :o :o

Now, why don't you quit being so subtle about this, and tell us what you really think!!  8) 8) 8)

[size=78%]Another example, a part time 16 year old  employee, came up with a companies best seller[/size]
highest profit item. How many PHD's would have even listen to this person?
Likely would have sent her for coffee  :D

I expect they would be much more likely to listen to her than a group of forty-something high-school drop-outs... Again, you are coming up with examples to justify your prejudices that are not based on either fact or reason...

This is a valid point..the reputation of a 'good education' is still very strong, even if some feel it is misplaced.

That wasn't what I read in his post, what he was saying is that higher education isn't for everyone, nor is it a prerequisite for a healthy happy life.
Which post did you read? This one?

Most highly educated people have a narrow thought track. Culture has what to do with education?

Funny thing, the higher the education, the snottier people become. not more knowledgeable, because they already believe they know all. So after school they learn less. Perception is a funny thing. What it says on paper rarely translate to reality.

Apparently, education isn't for everyone, just for narrow-minded people. Indeed, look what universal literacy and unlimited access to internet has done to this place...

I would, I'm just too busy contemplating whether it's a good thing to pursue a profession or buy lottery tickets instead. After all, we all know for a fact that some big winning tickets blow out of the water any professional achievement.  8)

It was really a shame about the gal in Florida who won most recent $500 mil lottery.

Article said she already had a tin roof on her house.

Didn't mention if she had masters or doctoral degree.

I can just see how badly it can play. Imagine, after several years you go back to Russia and meet your girlfriends that you left behind. They all tell you their children go to the Moscow State. What do you beat that with? "I married an honest plumber (translation for non-Russian native speakers - a bum), and my children are also honest plumbers"? Nope, that isn't going to win any points... 8)

So if you have no concept of honor, as most women do not (men have a more highly developed concept of honor), then do as you wish. 

It is not like a sane man, AM or RM, expects a lot of logic and individuality from a woman; many of them, are herd animals, like sheep. 

I have in the past, met an FSUW, and she was 10 times the person you show yourself to be, with this post. 

Are you yourself, some kind of special snowflake?

Actually, they were the owners of the chain, all fairly rich and only one we secondary degree.
Not the point, point is she had an idea and they listen.

I am not prejudice, you are! read all the posts or have someone explain them to you!
My experience is many with PHD focus on one area of study and sometimes miss the simple things.
Thus giving them less experience in many matters. PHD,  love to have one, maybe someday, but not at the cost of
all I have learned and will learned.

If your education did not give you the ability to read and comprehend, then responding with such foolish statements
is counter productive. If you don't understand, then ask for clarification.

SO whats your masters or PHD in?

Jesus dude, where do you dig this crap up from? Seriously? Do you spin such sweet poetry with every woman you woo?  LOL No wonder you're single (and I guess desperate). Given that and your porkier dimensions, none of this must go down well with any woman worth having though I suspect there would be many a pay-per-letter "lady" that would be quite happy to blow warm sweet nothings up your virtual arse ad infinitum.

Again, you seem to be taking a big leap here. I will assume your experience with PhDs has been limited to work only. And of course, they will be addressing the topic at hand using the knowledge acquired in their studies.

For example, if you were an attorney and started discussing the pros and cons of Baehr v. Miike with a neurosurgeon you would not expect a concise respond, do you?

However, let's say you are at a BBQ and started shooting the breeze I believe the conversation would be more amenable.

Or, do you think they would try to submit you to their will by showing you how inept you are?

Honestly, I'm here shaking my head.

Ah yes, the "you can't read" argument of a forum demonstrating that you are unable of coming up with a cogent argument. So far, all you have posted are PhDs are like this and are like that based on unfounded generalizations.
