That's because men's value in society is their earning potential. As long as their weight doesn't get in the way of that, they're welcomed as "one of the guys". Think about any popular TV show. Skinny, conventionally attractive, guy with no job, no car, is often a "loser", or as TLC put it "a scrub". Large guy with no money is usually depicted as some sort of uneducated hillbilly. Large guy with lots of money wears fancy suits and smokes cigars.
Women's value in society is their appearance. The trope of wives "letting themselves go" is as ancient as patriarchal society itself. Once your standing is secure, you don't have to worry about your appearance unless you want to.
The fact that these outdated beliefs are still prevalent today just shows how much work still needs to be done towards a more equal society.
72% of screen plays are written by guys so maybe this culture shift in ending stereotypes should start with our gender instead of hoisting it upon women
No one cares about that kind of bullshit outside of chronically online incels feeding each other hateful lies to keep themselves down and stuck in rabid echo chambers. No one.
If you want women with traditional values who won't work after birthing kids - you really expect her to choose for future father of her kids men with no or almost none income to live in poverty? Or with salary which will be good for 2 ppl, but not for entire multiple kids family?
And if women is career driven why you expect her to be awed by men who isn't able to earn anything more than minimum wage + usually he won't be cooking for her and cleaning more in house "because it's a woman job"?
If you wouldn't have a cock you also wouldn't be interested in guys who aren't able to give, but they have shitload of demands - I ensure you...
It's not gold digging to look for a partner who will bring sth to relationship instead of just taking.
