Would you date a man without a job?

Would you date a man without a job? Forget bad teeth - unemployment is biggest turn-off for three-quarters of women

Quote
Despite tough economic times and a solid unemployment rate, a new study has revealed that women are not interested in dating a man with no job.

Dating site, It's Just Lunch, surveyed 925 men and women and found that a whopping 75per cent of women were turned off by unemployment.

Though notably conducted by a matchmaking service for singles looking to meet 'normal, well-educated professionals', the report broke down the numbers to find out whether the votes were finance-based or more complex.

I had a GF that was mad at me for not having a "job", I had investments that were paying the rent, and most months her share of it too. but apparently not specifically having a job was a deal breaker.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism. -Kenny Powers

For some unknown reason, I think women expect men to provide  or have the financial witherewal to support them. I call BS on that one. I support myself, whether a man has a job or not. I would rather he has some financial stability, so I am not paying his bills, that he is financially responsible for..
The sea is treacherous, but an even hand on the keel brings it safely to port.

Nothing is sexier than a man and his gun!!!

A man should prefer his own company to that of others, because no matter where he goes,he'll find himself there..

If a man is really trying to get a job? and they're doing menial jobs while waiting for a job to come through? I wouldn't of had a problem with that, but no way could I tolerate a man who was being lazy and not doing a thing to get a job.

Having a job is simply part of life. Being self sufficient is freedom.

Apart from the economy, I don't think the gals are all that bad by asking their men to demonstrate some basic level of success in life. Having a job and paying their own way is Elemental Humanity 101.

Not you but darn seems there are allot of men and woman out there when the woman come home from work to find the boyfriend with no job just babysitting some other male brat has offed the kid.

Not often when a man has a job and a girlfriend to come home and find their kids are missing. When this does happen it makes National Headlines, men offing kids from their girlfriends is becoming very common today.

Hang in there ,Woman are getting wild and woolly and doing the unthinkable to their own and boyfriends children.

Any Port in a storm can become more dangerous then riding the storm out at sea.
