Can we get more information about this "Independent Woman" turn off concept?


I've been on my own a long time now, so I don't know if being able to jump start my own vehicle is too independent or if being able to support myself financially is independent enough? (Sorry, context: in Tahoe the guys are pretty much looking for a Sugar Momma, so not being able to support them too has been a tough one to overcome).

One guy referred to us as cars, good luck to him in finding anyone else after that comment. Women are not test-drivable cars, and neither should men view themselves like that. I wouldn't want anyone playing with my "gadgets" just to see if they like what's underneath the hood.
LOL... love the way you put it, mate. Made my day. ; )

Ok, I'm a guy who was curious what the article says about us. I have to disagree about independent women. (are they realy independent?). I wont go into specifics. But I think, I can honestly say, that not all men like women who are independent minded.

Yea, bring on more info about it. But I think, I can honsetly tell you (since I'm a guy) that men are particular about how independent women are. We don't mind if they can start a car, drive a car, or whatever. But what we do mind is, if they are stubborn, defiant, manipulative, selfish, if they wont let us be the decision maker for the relationship, and if on the same token, they're puppets to their family.
We want to give women a say in what we do with them, (for example what movie we see; we feel it's caring to ask, "What movie would you like to see?" or what would you like to do?" but make most of the decsions. To not give a lady a say, like that, is to be selfish. And to be overly selfish isn't right! That's my take on it.
