Firstly, it should be understood that the term:
*no brainer* has a completely different meaning
when referring to a female. While normally it
would refer to a problem that does not require
any brain power to solve; inthe case of the
female it means: no brain .... 'er.

In UK, about 1% are earning more than £100,000
($170,000) per annum. About 85% of the working
population are on less than £35,000 ($60,000)
per annum; annum 70% are on less thatn the
national average wage of £25,000 ($40,000) per
annum.

E.g. there is just 1% of the male population
that can support a high maintenance female. 99%
of females had better get used to it.

It used to be that a girl was happy to be asked
out; she was on to a winner if it got serious
and she had scored if there was a marriage. She
was generally glad that anyone had picked her.

Then the dumboes of the sisterhood told all
women that they can have it all when, in
reality, it is simply not possible for the
overwhelming majority. The result is that large
numbers of females think they can have Mr. Rich.

Also, when their Beau fails to make it they can
dump him as a failure. Only becoming filthy rich
will qualify as success. Then, of course, he
gets taken.

Why not try a look at the Rusky site;

Of course, I accept no responsibility for the
consequences. (just a legal thing you
understand)
