      Do people think pilots are rich and powerful? I know a couple of pilots. They make about €90k a year and they are basically well qualified bus drivers.

        Man, where to begin with this.

        A. The pilots you know are making way more than most commercial pilots if those numbers aren’t made up.

        B. Nearly 100K in USD a year IS A LOT OF MONEY to most people, certainly nothing to scoff at. Way more than the median US income.

        C. You’re on fucking drugs if you legitimately believe that piloting a plan requires the same level of competency as driving a bus.

        D. Who the fuck upvoted you?

      Why is wanting a person with money even in the same ballpark of bad as lying to people to get them into bed?

      Just because I don’t understand or share the preference of someone doesn’t mean I want them to get used like a fleshlight.

      Is it seriously your opinion that a person wanting someone with money is a bad human being who deserves to be treated like what your workmate did?

      This is simply misogyny. And people are ultra casual about it. That’s seriously scary. I wonder what other partner preferences you think makes women basically lose their right to be treated with a baseline of respect.

          This is a quote from you where you put women who want men with money on the same level as a guy exploiting them through manipulation:

          My old workmate used to tell women he was a pilot. […] but also bad on the women who dribble over money and power. Nobody was a great human being in that situation.

          I am still waiting for your explanation on why women who want a guy with money are “bad”.
