Okay here's my take on this phenomenon....
Realistically looking at it as a whole it seems very, very, very expensive to be a women.. Have you ever noticed how much a women can spend even in Shoppers Drug Mart just on basic everyday items, we're not even talking the sub-par quality makeup that they sell there? Shit I've been behind women at the cash reg there and heard some of the bills they rang up, $130, 150. Hell I only spend about $20. a month in there on average.
To be a women is very competitive because their ultimate goal of course is to please us visually and to accomplish that cost's wads of $. A few years ago when I was working down by the Eaton Center my girlfriend and I were talking on the phone. She told me that on the weekend we were gunna have to go downtown to the Bay so she could by makeup. I said what do you need cus I'm down here now and I could pick it up for you and save us a trip on Sat. She said that she just needed one thing a compact (I think thats what she called it). I cant remember the exact name but its that round thingy they open up and has a mirror and powder, it's about the same size as Jada Fires areola.lol So she gave me the model# and said thanks its in the Mac store in the Bay. I went there and asked for the model and when I went to pay it came to almost $50. I was like wtf (inside of course). All the way home I was looking at it and thinking that this shouldnt cost no more then $15. imo. And the thing is Mac isnt even high-end makeup compared to other brands.Yikes
I didn't bitch about it to my g-friend I smiled and gave it to her and she thanked me but it opened up my eye's to how much a women has to spend in order to maintain a certain level of attractiveness. At home she has a drawer full of make-up so I'd hate to try and calculate exactly how much she invests in her cosmetics etc..
Now add in her "women's" products, sexy LaSenza outfits, cloths, shoes, purse's, hair done ($200. a pop), Brazilian wax's, manicures, electrolysis, eyebrow pucking, perfume, gym memberships, health food store bills, food, credit card's etc,etc
Holy crap thats allot of coin and this all is continuous all year around. All this and rent, car payment, insurance and they should be broke so I can see why some of them have that look on their face when they have to go into pocket to buy stuff that isn't on they're maintenance list. I understand why when they have to pick up wine they have that wtf look on their face cus in their mind they're sayin "wtf, my man should be springing for this shit not me its expensive enough looking like this"
The cool thing about most women tho is that they shell out all this coin on looking good but never complain or whine about it. Perhaps the reason is because they don't want the boyfriend/ husband to find out really how much $$ goes into looking/smelling like this?
Who knows, maybe the reason they keep Sugar daddy's is because they said... Fuck It, I'm not gunna keep paying for all this crap. I need some assistance with these f-ing bills but what can I offer in exchange for these bills to be paid? I got it, my snatch .lol
There's allot of competition for women and I'm sure its expensive just to maintain a "Ok look" for full-out hottie they'll need to break out the gold card IMO.
NOTE: I also think that's why the universe is setup where the man buys the women a drink at the bar. They shouldn't have any money left after all the payouts.lol
