Wives ARE status symbols.
I’m sorry that so many of you can’t handle that truth, but it’s just the way it is.
Men with wives are automatically seen as more trustworthy and stable.
Men with hot, well cared for wives are automatically seen as more affluent and powerful.
A wife is the most powerful status symbol there is because anyone can make payments.
But you succeed in making a woman thrive? You provide what she needs not only physically, but mentally and emotionally too? And it shows because she loves you back and is willing to express that physically?
You’ve won.
A wife is an outward representation, she reflects what few other things can, her husband’s character.
