Girls that date "men of status" are labeled gold diggers — or jersey, cleat, racer, or some form of chaser. But what do you call a guy who only chases after models or women with status and a bank account?
I asked this on Facebook and got over 50 comments. Here are a few, separated by He Said, She Said:
She Said …
• Claim to fame douche mcallister
• Short
• Divorced
• Lonely
• Insecure
• Annoying
• Pathetic
• ”Beauty Diggers”
• Chester the Model Molester
• Football Players, Race Car Drivers, and Basketball Players
• Victim Pimps
• Alimony men
He Said …
• Normal
• Wealthy
• Smart
• Kevin Federline
• Grave diggers
• Ambitious
• David Spade
• "swinging for the fences"
• A man with a plan
• Dad *SMART!!!
... sadly, "smart" seems to be a reoccurring theme from men in this poll. Why do male "status seekers" get praised when women get deemed legal prostitutes?
Such as from the woman who left this comment: "These woman wouldn't be called gold diggers if they would quit looking for a free ride and pull their weight, more than just in the sack!!! How about being domestic and taking care if ur man?????? "
... apparently this women didn't understand the question.
What about men who only chase women for their looks or status — isn't that the same thing as a woman chasing after a man for his money? Can we just stick these booty barterers in the shallow end of life's pool and be done with it?
So, what do you call them?
