Stevo,
What you say is true to a point.Women usually have different priorities in marriage. But I have seen too many trophy wives who now want something much different than they were looking for in their 20's and 30's.20's and 30's were the age they looked for security . As they now have it, it seems they later go on and look for younger men who can give them a bit of excitement and youth they now seem to be losing. Sort of a mid-life crisis on her end.
 Perhaps as their husband ages,and they get hit on by young good looking men all of the time. It gets more difficult to turn down an oppurtunity to get a "boy toy". Just my observation. Good luck with your marriage.

This is a very good point.  And quite valid in male/female human inter-relationships.  Invariably,  women go for the dough...thereby gaining the desired security.

Actually,  marriage for romantic or "love" reasons is rather a new aspect of marriage.  For thousands of years marriage was more of an economic/survival modality.  Or for strenghtening the power of 2 familys or of reigons or city states or countries.

Spot on, your observations and comments are so fitting !

*Bottom feeders, trophy girls* and those comments like the finest Russian Discussion Board, Yeh, they make me smile.

I remember the *resident custodian* of this board (I think he is a Texan)once saying, *You should have seen the looks on their faces when I walked into the school class reunion with my new Russian wife hanging on my arm*. His words were similar to that anyhow.

It just seems to me this approach with FSUW has more to do with *Trophy Wives* than any are prepared to admit.

You are such a realist LP !

Good Luck, and lots of it to some here.
