You two are using a different subset of men to counter piff’s argument when it doesn’t negate his original point.
Piff is speaking about the upper middle class which is correct and you two are speaking on the top 1% which is also correct.
BUT I specifically remember nikkas clowning in the other thread about some girl wanting a dude who made 500k a year. Now why were dudes clowning? Because you know it’s damn near statistically impossible to meet a black man making that much in a year. The majority of hvbm salary wise aren’t in the top 1% so why even bring that up as a counter argument?
Again, your anecdotal evidence is irrelevant. I keep posting links to studies or census data about this and you guys ignore it. It's a fact that high earners date and marry high earners, on average.
The only "original point" is that neither
@Piff Perkins and you have ever watched the show and are thus putting words into Kevin Samuels' mouth like a nagging woman does. The end all, be all
fact is that "high value men" as Kevin Samuels defines them, not how the two of you define them ($60k/yr + $40k/yr living in a $300k+ neighborhood),
do not marry their colleagues. This is why you two must play the semantics game - like women do. "Well, there are plenty of husbands and wives who both make high five figures, low six figures and live in a four hundred thousand dollar plus neighborhood!"
Yes, goofballs, because they're living above their means and cannot afford their lifestyle unless the wife is also working. But, that is not what over ninety percent of women calling into his show want. They don't. want. to. work. This means the husband has to make up her entire income. Single men in their mid-30s and up capable of doing this are not marrying their income-peers.
The other disingenuous thing Goof Perkins is doing is factoring in "high value men" who married their wives in college and she ate cup ramen with him until he started making enough to take on his wife's income. The obvious problem with this is single women in their mid-30s looking to finally "settle down" cannot marry already married men. Durp. The other problem is that single men in their mid-30s and late-30s who are on her income level
will not marry her.
That's literally why his show exists, because these high five figure and up, mid-30s women cannot find men at their income levels and above interested in marrying them. None of this is particularly difficult to comprehend is you're not a disingenuous, argumentative goofball.
