# Colbey Joyce Men don't typically require their partners to be as...

*June 10, 2023 — Comment Archer T. Ships replied to Colbey Joyce's comment.*

Colbey Joyce Men don't typically require their partners to be as financially stable as they are.  I don't think that makes their partner's  gold diggers. IMO, it's when a woman is attracted to a man for  mostly financial reasons that the gold digger label might apply.  (And, I don't think being a gold digger is even bad behavior, provided that both parties are on the same page about the nature of the relationship.) Speaking for myself, I think a good standard is earning enough to be self-sustaining, plus one's share of any childcare.
