College Educated v. Non College Educated Women

[ambach123]

I have known mostly college educated RW, some with Masters and and some with several degrees. I have noticed in some posts in the archives that non college educated women with regular jobs like hairdressers, bookkeepers, shop assistants, etc. make better wives.
My question is do they? Or it does matter?
This is a general question, there are other things to consider in specific individual.
The rationale given is that because of the lack of employment opportunities for RW in USA, a very highly educated woman is likely to be disappointed with a downgrade in social status, but for a shop  assistant in Russia, there would not be much difference.

Also, the percentage of college educated women is very high in FSU, and specially those who seek foreign husbands, are for the most part college educated.
By comparison, USA has 29% women with college degrees and Colombia 18%. In Colombia it is the reverse, not many college educated latin women seek foreign husbands.

It mattered to me.  More than anything else, I held to two criteria-- 1) down to earth, family loving girl; 2) smart.

Smart matters to me because it enters into every conversation we have together.  Yes, there are smart people without an education.  But the the FSU, people who did not go to college tended not to do so because they did not do well in school, which usually translates to not being the brightest bulb.

I did date a not so bright girl once-- on a WOVW getaway to Turkey.  Tall, beautiful blond. But-- Boring... !

ambach...

I can see the assumptions you're grasping at but I really don't think there's a secret formula.

You've been pushing this barrow that men should avoid RW who want to work in the US because they'll find it hard to get jobs, they'll get frustrated and everything will fall apart.

Maybe now you're considering "targeting" uneducated women because they will have lower career/professional expectations???

What I'll share with you is this...

All women are different, and maybe moreso than men, they go through stages in life. 

Young women desire hot guys.

Some women grow up and chase demanding careers.

Some women with demanding careers change and crave children and family.

Some with family will want to study later.

Some will not study but will want to start a business.

Some will never want to work again...  but will fall into depression because they are bored.

Some will be happy doing ladies lunches while their husbands work.

Some... well some just won't leave FSU.

In short...  there's no simple formula!

Ambach, repeating something does not make it true. As I keen noting, highly educated RW can find jobs in their professions in North America. It simply takes time and occasionally some extra training. I can attest to the fact that a woman who was competent and driven in her country of origin, will eventually succeed in her new country. She won't usually have a job waiting when gets off the plane, but within five years or ten years, she will be doing fine, usually no worse than back home. The biggest barrier is language.

I just dont get you Ambach.  I mean I can understand being stubborn because I am stubborn.. but.. it seems like you are making this a lot harder than it has to be.

If you really want a lifelong wife who will love you and raise a family with you..

Why don't you take some time off and go over for an extended period of time?  You can afford it if your claims are true.

[ambach123]

I asked a general question, I asked for other people's experience.

It has nothing to do with me or what I do or what I want.

If you have your experience or opinion to contribute, that is what I asked for. Read the question again. If you don't have an opinion move on.

You understand English Sculpto?

I would very respectfully request that you don't write on my posts ever again. I am sure you have the whole board to write ad infinitum, then why give me your opinion , which is almost always has nothing to do with the subject matter?

Or is this all because you have nothing else to do?

[Misha]

I would very respectfully request that you don't write on my posts ever again.

Ambach, you don't like people disagreeing  with you do you. Makes me wonder what you will do if you ever find somebody willing to marry you 

[Sculpto]

As someone once said to me Ambach.. the board is free to anyone to respond to anything.  

If you go for a woman with a lower level of education you are simply opening a different can of worms that you can't handle.  Just because someone doesn't have a degree doesn't mean they aren't smart and have high expectations.  

but you pattern remains the same.  I can see that with how you use the board with your not so subtle attempts to gain some sneaky sort of insight yet without offering anything of real value or being in the least transparent about your own experiences that given your results so far it is no wonder you have been unable to find a wife.  Lots of people keep trying to help you but you don't listen to anything and merely offer up more and more evidence of your lack of sincerity in your search and what is clearly a pattern of potential very bad behavior.  

Get a dog for loyalty and go to Rio for sex.

Ambach, you don't like people disagreeing  with you do you. Makes me wonder what you will do if you ever find somebody willing to marry you 

Misha.. isn't this thread obvious as to his intent?

Actually.. he should got to the Phils.. he will find the compliance he seeks there.. for a while.. until she wakes up.

[ambach123]

I dislike repeating myself over and over.

Disagreements are part of life, and part of a healthy debate.

Read the subject matter, read it again, respond to the subject matter disregarding what you think about the  poster.

If you have something to contribute do so, if you have nothing to contribute move on.

It is not brain surgery.

Anyone who can't follow this simple rule, either can't read English, or is a complete idiot and a moron, in either case I have no desire to know their opinion.

[facetrock]

  Well I think its kind of obvious that Ambach has found another woman and she doesnt have a college degree. Or he  thinks if he finds one without a degree she will be stupid enough to sign whatever pre nup he throws in front of her.
  Ambach you post on a public forum and get pissed when someone doesnt agree with you. Are you always like that? Its a public forum and you will get several opinions, you should know that by now.

[ambach123]

Kievstar once stated that 90 % of the people on this board  are
 "losers" ( those were his words not mine); most of them can't even read English.

No matter how many times you tell them, read the subject matter, it does not get through to some of them.

Regretfully, most of them have no jobs, and this is the cheapest form of entertainment, specially when the unemployment checks are the only source of income.

I can see that Kievstar was correct.

[Sculpto]

Funny that people need special training and a licence to own a monkey but can marry and have children with anyone they want.  This is one case where the law has really failed.  Also proof you don't have to be smart to be rich.  That might be the greatest social injustice of all.  

[Sculpto]

LOL Ambach.. no.. that isn't the issue.. its just that EVERYONE sees through you at this point.  You might be able to scam some women into bed but you aren't fooling anyone here.

[ambach123]

Sculpto in what language do I have to tell you that stop posting on my posts?

Why is this so hard for you? What is the problem?

[facetrock]

   Ambach. How many times do you have to be told you have no right to tell anyone not to post. We have been through this before with you. Dont you listen? This is a community forum and anyone can post. Can you get that through your thick skull.

Did you ask him which category are you in?

[Daveman]

To get back to the original post without the commentary about the OP...

A college or university degree doesn't really matter to me, however, intelligence -- the ability to carry on conversations on a variety of topics, the ability to express herself clearly, and of course a wacky sense of humor (which is usually a sign of high intelligence) -- these are my most valued criteria of the mind.  Often time ladies who fall into this category have a degree, sometimes they don't. 

As far as if a woman with a degree would make a "better" wife.. I don't know for certain but highly doubt it.  Of course if you are seeking a "career" woman, then a her having a degree would become more important though she would probably need to spend more years in school in the west prior to really getting her feet on the ground running career wise. 

For me, it mostly about "down to earth, intelligent, devoted, and FUN!"  A college degree does not guarantee any of those, nor does it preclude them.

Ambach, I'd say chose the woman who makes you feel wonderful, inspires you, puts a smile on your face to think about, from whom it literally hurts to be away...  whether she has a degree in something or not. 

Though I must admit, a woman with a degree in either astrophysics or psychology really excites me...   

[Sculpto]

big brains are a bigger turn on than big boobs.. anyone else ever noticed that smart women are better in bed?

but Ambach.. what you don't realize in my replies to you is that I am actually trying to help.  If you could find some way to open that little brain of yours up a little a lot of guys would probably do the same.. but .. we give advice which you then ignore and you keep getting the same results, so, why should anyone really try to help you seduce another lady?  Sorry that you don't like what I have to say or how I am saying it, but, what do you really expect at this point?

Dave is way too nice.

Sculpto in what language do I have to tell you that stop posting on my posts?

If you don't wish to see his posts put him in your ignore and quit your damn whining.

With that said, I didn't use education as a precursor in my search. I had only 2 qualifiers, age and english ability. As it turns out the lady I found has two degrees and uses neither in her employment. Actually, her job is much beneath her intellect and education but she enjoys it any way. Much is the same throughout Russia as I understand it. It didn't matter to me as I wasn't looking for an education or woman with a particular occupation.

big brains are a bigger turn on than big boobs.. anyone else ever noticed that smart women are better in bed?

Yes, I have noticed and experienced this.  I think it is primarily that the smarter the woman, the more willing she is to participate in the full range of sexual possibilities.

The lower brain powered women seem to be more reluctant to participate in such (in my limited experience with such women.)  However, if the lower brain powered women are willing to do all, it seems they might eventually be just as good in bed as their smarter sisters.

However, since direct sexual activity takes up a relatively small percentage of our lives, we must be concerned about what will occur in the majority of our waking hours.  In this respect, the smart women will always win hands down; at least with men of equal brain power.

The women at Mensa meetings are greatly interested in sexual activity but, unfortunately, most of them are also greatly overweight.

big brains are a bigger turn on than big boobs..

So, you are proposing that breast size and intelligence are somehow correlated?  :evil: That women with small breasts are somehow smarter than those with larger breasts?  You should let university admission officers know as it will save them a lot of cost when it comes to deciding which potential female students are the smartest 

[Sculpto]

lol nooo Misha.. just saying the a stupid girl with perfect perky big boobs is less of a turn on than a smart girl with any kind of boobs.. big or small.. even inverted.. droopy.. etc..

[Gator]

Ambach,

Please change your name to Déjà vu.  It is so appropriate.

[Misha]

lol nooo Misha.. just saying the a stupid girl with perfect perky big boobs is less of a turn on than a smart girl with any kind of boobs.. big or small.. even inverted.. droopy.. etc..

LOL! Well, it is possible to find a woman with both brains and (big/bigger) breasts
