| What Occupation Would Stop You From Dating Or Marrying Someone? by Tracypacy(f): 9:17am On Feb 20, 2018 |
I recently hung out with a group of girlfriends I hadn’t seen in a very long time. I’d like to say that it’s because we’re all busy,so I was grateful to get the opportunity to catch up with my girls. As usual, those ladies that were single lamented about their nonexistent relationship status. “Where were all the good guys?” “Why do they all live with their mama or have multiple baby mamas?” “How come they don’t have great jobs or make a lot of money?” I quietly sat there listening, not missing any of my single days. However, the more I listened, the more questions formulated in my head. “What constitutes as a great job?” “What is ‘a lot’ of money?” After all, those things are pretty relative, so I was curious to learn what types of guys they were attracting and why they felt these men weren’t good enough. One friend said, “The doorman in my building asked me out on a date. Can you believe it? Like I’d date ‘the help’.” Suddenly, I began to understand why some of these women were still single. “What’s wrong with the doorman?” I asked. “Uh, he’s a doorman,” she responded, as if the answer was obvious. I followed up by asking if it was just doormen she was against, or any man who was in a service/customer service type of job. After all, “the help” is not limited to doormen, maids, butlers, janitors or any other job that reminds her of “slavery” (her words, not mine). Service industries also include positions within sectors such as hospitality, sales, public health and any other position where your responsibility is to service or be of service to other people. But because those were still considered service industry jobs in a sense, were they too deemed not respectable? “Would she not date a man in any of those fields?” I thought to myself.

A security guard or a male nurse. There's something girly about the title "male nurse". 29 Likes 2 Shares |

Tracypacy: IDK because it's not about the money. I've dated a barman before & to my understanding, they get paid less than a nurse. I just don't like that it sounds so feminine. As for a security guard, again it's not about monetary value or anything, i just don't see myself dating one lol. 9 Likes 1 Share |

I personally wouldn't go for any guy who doesn't have a formal job ( both civil servants and private sector are welcome) or doesn't own a formal business ( I don't play around with hustlers). 23 Likes 2 Shares |

Lionessza: At least you have clearly defined standards. How do you feel about a nurse? Mna, I kinda like rule breakers  I can kinda see myself going for a tsotsi. LMAO. Only the naughty side of me is turned on by that though. I'm conflicted.6 Likes 1 Share |

XhosaNostra: Lol, I don't think I have much of a problem with a nurse but the thought of my man doing " nurse things" kinda makes him seem " weak" and once ndikubone as weak then ................. Lol, I hear you though. I would also go for u tsotsi myself but not ezi " hustlers on street corners" , I find the likes of " jack mabaso " a turn on. You know , the ones abakwi suits with formal businesses as fronts  . It takes brains, self control , class, power to be that kind , plus they usually have this intense and dangerous love for abantu babo .6 Likes 1 Share |

Lionessza: Exactly my point! It's just so...gay. What do they even call them in the wards, "Sister"? I honestly don't find it attractive or manly. It's good that they help people & are gainfully employed though, but ha.a. No. Yabo! You get it. There is something very hot about that type of a man. Jack is a very good example. I thought I was the only one liking a bit of vavavoom & passion. 2 Likes |

XhosaNostra: Lol @ do they call them" sister". I seriously don't know. I also like that they tend to put family first and can be quite loyal and demand the same from you. A bit of vavavoom and passion are life lol. I'm sorry but pushovers leave me dry , give me Mr assertive any day , my personality wasn't made to match with a " weakling" .3 Likes
