27 page, I dont bother to read all but I got 1 question.
Do you mean money minded as in:
1) Girl looks at guy if he have decent income to support a family first? OR
2) Girls just pick the guy who has highest and excessive income?
BTW, TS do you know the word stereotype?
All girls not like that. Some girls doesn't even care whether the guy got money or not. I think i read a story in a newspaper that a girl has fallen in love with a guy in a jail now, and still love him.
The topic is "girls are money minded" so it is pointing to general population, as mention many times and unfortunate you did not read and re-debate the same thing. You could've quoted Mother Teresa, whom are a saint, but living out of this world.
When a guy takes a girl out for the first date, to impress her, you pay for the dinner. Now why do you do such a thing? You know buying her dinner is your first move to show that you are able to take care of her. Security in the modern world is MONEY. (In the stone age you would probably kill a rabbit and barbeque for her but that was time money had yet to exist.) This is the first move involving money.
To chase a girl, you need to impress her, the reason to impress her is to again show your capability that you're able to take care of her.
Now, after you got her as your gf, pass all the lovey dovey, its time to move on to next phase, Marriage. The girl will re-evaluate if you're the right one to marry, pak toh and marriage is 2 different thing with girls, we're unlike man's thinking.
When we evaluate marriage (mature girls) we think about your capability to bring up kids and this cost money, so financial capability is important. Typical scenario, both working earning a normal wage of lets say 4k join income and very loving. Parents start pressuring, CNY comes and relative start questioning, her frens just got married to a doctor at Saujana and all this while the boy kept quiet coz he isnt prepared to commit because he knows he cant give a big wedding, he cant afford a house yet, he is still saving for that Soundstream amplifier he was aiming.
The girl behind the boy will start discussing about marriage life with her married colleague, her aunty and frens, she began to feel she is being short change. She began to see him as incapable as a provider. Then quarrel began, as everytime she talks about marriage the boy gives excuse we're not ready and this and that. Then she will start panic.
Wedding is a big thing for a girl, spending 20K - 50K is consider worthwhile but for the guy this is just crazy.
Everything involve money, and if you're unfortunate, a young doctor starts chasing your girl, and this is the cross road of her life.
Of coz this is just the typical scenario
