		<description>*sigh*....As a woman, some things I say about women may be seen as treason by the gender.  However,I follow the mantra &quot;Stand for something or you will fall for anything&quot;.   So here goes: 

1. Women should have standards and dealbreakers, but sometimes these standards are unrealistic. If a man is just coming out of college, do you really think he is going to have a six figure job and drive a BMW 750? There are exceptions to the rule, but exceptions are called exceptions because they RARE. 

2.  Women who have achieved success in academia and their subsequent career sometimes get this chip on their shoulders, and disgregard brothers who don&#039;t have degrees simply because they don&#039;t have degrees.  They don&#039;t look at the man&#039;s ambition, or other qualities that will equally or surpass just having a degree(s).  Women do this because they feel that not having a degree is a sheer indicator that they  won&#039;t have anything in common with this person ( i.e., if he doesn&#039;t have a degree, he cannot carry an intelligent conversation, etc.).  

3.  CONTROVERSY TIME:  Some women who have achieved &quot;success&quot; feel as though that degree and job is all  they need to get obtain their prince charming.  They can be sloppy in asthetics/character and get a pristine man.  For example, a you cannot expect to have a mate that works out religously if you refuse to workout because you are going to sweat out your perm. Furthermore, you suck on neckbones for a mid day snack and you are not going to give up your snack for nobody!  I&#039;m sorry, it is not going down.  No human being looks at a person and say, &quot;Wow, he or she can rock a quadratic equation like no one&#039;s buisness.&quot;  I am not saying you should direct your asthetic goals just to get a mate, but at the same time, it is a factor.  You have to be a mirror to what you desire.</description>

		<description>I have some fairly strong thoughts about the WP article on Helena.  I recorded a video response (work place safe): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1QElbYkPxY</description>
