That last “if” is a big one. Most of the time these relationships aren’t as clear headed and well thought out as you’re hoping they are. Hurt feelings are the norm, and hurt feelings of powerful people lead to revenge.

Critics like her say the very term “gold digger” reeks of misogyny.
No, the term itself doesn’t imply gender at all.
Anyway, I never really saw the problem with gold diggers, it’s a relationship like any other - you give your partner something they need and the partner gives you something you need.
So what if one of the parties needs money and the other a young woman to feel better? If there’s no coercion and no actual scamming, I don’t see the problem.

The term implies someone who LIES to be in a relationship for the benifit of money status or future divorce (and taking half your money house ect)
