The bolded are some requirements to be middle class.
For context from my perspective there's broke, working class, middle class, upper middle class and rich.
Calling 60k broke when the majority live fine on it without extras is reaching is all, especially saying you need 100k to raise a family. The working class are the majority of families.
Within the context of this conversation.. If you can't have take care of a wife and raise family in a middle class lifestyle are you really that desirable?
Average people making 40k and slightly above average making 60k live in the same neighborhoods, drive the same cars and pretty much live the same lifestyles. A lot of yall dudes have an inflated sense of self worth just like the women.
And this is what I believe folks are getting at. Raising a family on 60k is working class. Nothing wrong with that but please stop using KS HVM talking points and criteria for selecting women if you are in that category. When we say a woman's career and money don't matter that only applies to HVM. I see a lot of 50 and 60k men repeating this like it applies to them. If you NEED a woman to work so you can achieve a basic middle class family lifestyle then her earnings and career is extremely important. It's not the only thing and women should not lead with it like men do however, if a woman is working just as hard as you, then you gonna have to compromise on some of these traditional women ideals since you are not a traditional middle class provider man.
A chubby woman, one that cant cook, career woman, an adjustable 4, 5 or 6, or even a woman with a kid making 60k can level up a breh making 60k into middle class family life by combining income. So all we are saying is you cannot overlook these women the same way a HVM can. If a woman can change your lifestyle you are not better than her or above dealing with her.
