Men And Trophy Wives
I know of guys who would date no one but trophy wife type of girls. What's with that? I have heard mostly only negative things about men with trophy wives but still that doesn't stop men from wanting to be part of that exclusive gentlemen's club. Ego boost and great sex must just be some of the many perks that these men go for. Which camp are you in - the camp for it or the camp against it?
Here's my favorite celebrity trophy wife, by the way.
Carla Bruni, who rose from the ranks of supermodel/singer/songwriter to first lady of France.

Hell yeah! I was a trophy wife, but then I had a baby. Now I'm just kinda a silver medal wife. Gotta work on that.
Great sex is a bad thing in a relationship?
@milfncookies@xanga - LOL too funny
no, its have fake written all over it..the women end up looking like nothing but an accessory.
It is important to men what their mates think - we like our guys to think our missus is hot. But the trophy thing is a bit shallow. But it works both ways. Look at women whose sole purpose in life seems to be dating a footballer.

pERSONALLY, I'm so lonely a trophy wfe would help the situation
The example you used is bullshit. A trophy mate, in my opinion, is someone you marry solely for their looks and not much else. You know, the "Sh-sh-sh honey. You just look pretty and go make me a sandwich" type of thing.
The woman you pictured appears to be highly successful and talented all on her own. Yeah, the guy is proud as hell to have her on his arm, but couldn't she say the same for him? I mean, he is the leader of a country. Is he not a trophy husband? This example is kind of moot.
To the question though. By my definition of a trophy wife, no I would not want one. It implies that we don't actually enjoy one another on a level of companionship. I love banging a hot chick as much as the next guy, but just being hot doesn't make for marriage material.

@mcmeister89 - I think you summed it up pretty much perfectly.
There's a difference between a wonderful, beautiful wife who's successful and a "trophy wife," and there's a difference between wanting people to think your wife is a catch and marrying her for that reason alone.
@milfncookies@xanga - lol. good luck!! don't let your baby relegate you to bronze medal status!
@RunningMan42@xanga - is it to you? ;) and is it enough for you to marry someone just for it?
@myunsaidwords@xanga - yeah, but there are girls out there who would go to great lengths just to become that accessory..
@PMFoutofwater@datingish - lol. yeah, i'm already getting feedback that trophy husbands are in great demand! thanks for the link! will check it out. ;)
@ginseng@xanga - the good news is at least you know you can pay for them! ;)
@mcmeister89 - you know what? i think you're right on the part that instead of calling carla bruni a trophy wife, i should be calling sarkozy a trophy husband! and i'm pretty sure trophy husbands like him are in greater demand than trophy wives are! now you got me curious. what's marriage material for you then? ;)
@oOBuBBLes711Oo@xanga - For trophy husbands? :P
Hey, if girls want to subject themselves to becoming "trophy wives," I think that is their right. All they have to do is... What? Look pretty? They don't have to think for themselves? They have everything taken care of for themselves because they are seen as too incompetent to do it themselves? That seems like a pretty easy life.
I think that this post is really shallow, just like the person who wrote it obviously.
@mcmeister89 - win.
@hi_iM_haLLe@xanga - Looking at it objectively: The shallowness goes both ways. The "trophy wife" is physically attractive while the guy is expected to have status/money <-- obviously this makes the trophy wife worse.
@T0m03@xanga - That's how many women are -- even outside of being a "trophy wife". Many women are at least "gold diggers" to some extent; whether it is just for a single date or a long-term marriage.
Not competent or too lazy to have a career of your own? That's OK because you can just get married and rely on a guy to take care of you. Afterwards you just can sit your ass on the couch getting fat while watching Oprah.
@morningmoka@xanga - She has to be okay with including this into foreplay: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pI3JlDoqEKg
Possibly one of the hottest commercials ever.
my boyfriend's friends are all losers, so the girls they bring home (if any) are usually pretty unimpressive. since they tend to all hate me, i occasionally feel like the trophy wife in the house. it's not so bad really.
You don't compare a goddess such as myself to a mere trophy.
If a rich man goes for a trophy wife, then does that then make the woman a gold digger?
@PMFoutofwater@datingish - That's actually my sole purpose in life.
I have to say certain comments here have made me wake my dog due to my booming gut laughs.
Frankly, I could care less. Trophy wives are one of those things that are low on my priority list and frankly, should be low on anyone's list.
@xXDC_luyouXx@datingish - Yeah, it's kind of like when some women go to college and end up not even working after they graduate because they're getting married to a guy who is going to take care of the bills.
@morningmoka@xanga - What I find is that when two people can communicate well enough to have great sex, they don't fail to communicate about the rest of everything in their lives ;)
I wouldn't want one. Everyone is always hitting on them, and you have a nagging fear that someday someone will come along with a bigger bank account or johnson than you, and she'll be gone. After all, what was she with you for? I hate being used by a woman. I don't want a pet, I want a mate. Someone that can think and help make decisions, help with house and yard work, share dinners with, go places with, do things together. And one that thinks sex isn't a four letter word. (Although if she uses four letter words during sex...win) I don't want some superachiever that I feel constantly in competition with either. I hope she is happy with whatever she does, regardless if that is bank president or bank janitor. And knows how to balance time between work, kids, self, and yes, being a spouse. Now if she is slender, has the traditional hourglass figure, that is just icing on the cake. If she has a pretty face, doesn't need makeup applied with a putty knife, so much the better. Someone that is in good physical condition, that we can go bike riding or hiking together, go swimming or play a good game of tennis. Someone that is able to wear a two piece and look nice in it. Not supermodel, but not Roseann either. And no tattoos for me... kthnxbye
@mcmeister89 - lol. the video is hilarious! i used to wrestle with my brother who's five years older than me and twice my size, when we were kids. needless to say, he won all the "matches". arghghgh.
@supaflychikn@xanga - that's the spirit! why resort to being dull and uninteresting just to make them happy?
@melandollic@xanga - lol. yes my highness, i hope you find your god! ;)
@Red_Apocalypse_Horse@xanga - bingo, they usually come in pairs. when there's a demand, there shall be supply!
@Naayy@xanga - wow, but beckham's taken!
@BillGnosis@xanga - happy to know we brought some cheers to your wednesday! ;) looking forward to doing it again.
@RunningMan42@xanga - hmm, interesting but i think you've got a good point there. a lasting relationship/marriage takes a lot of insane mutual attraction.
@Ork58@xanga - can't agree more with you! i have a good friend who's bent on getting a trophy wife and when asked what he'll do if the trophy wife dumps him when he becomes critically ill or bankrupt one day, his response was "well, i deserved it". couldn't be more well said i think.
@morningmoka@xanga - Yeah but Christiano Ronaldo isn't. ;)
