Can we put it on the record that women are better with money than men are? Do you know any couples where the woman spends frivolously and the man is responsible and restrained with money? Because I don't.
Hollywood and everthing is full of depictions of women who are "shop-a-holics", who sneak around so their husbands dont find out about their purchases. Ask any average scrote, and he'll tell you that women are bad with money. But I just dont see it in real life. I like to read advice columns, and I've only ever seen cases where a conflict arises from a man who's careless with money and a woman who's frugal; never the other way around. (Sadly, it's usually a woman asking how she can cOmProMiSe with her irresponsible boyfriend who wants to spend her money.)
On the other hand, we all know that men are more likely to be risk takers (like, there's actually good data demonstrating that fact.) I believe men will fuck around with money in ways that women won't.
Am I right?
I don't know, it's a pretty big generalization based on anecdotal evidence & some bias confirmation. I think it shows more integrity to base generalizations on real data.
