Tough
"); document.write("Hey Lucy, it's really a tough one because men generally don't like to feel emasculated - especially when it comes to salary, which means i suppose that you need to find someone who's career complements yours. But that said drive and passion can outway salary anyday. Rachel "); document.write("
Here is a point of view (Or 2)
"); document.write("Lucy, I read your article as much as I can. (And yes I am a Man). I think it is a great piece of “literature”, where I can get some real insight in the South African (Professional woman's) Psyche – So far it is a fun, scary and a VERY sexy place (Mostly). I am not a highflyer; don’t go abroad once or three times a year for work or pleasure. I work 10-13 hour days (And no it is not shift work) in marketing for a Cellular provider. But don’t own the R2mil house or have the R700K Land Rover. Hence mid LSM. But it is early days yet and I move ahead. BUT, the reason for the comment is to give you a laugh and tell you what men might think when they hear they are completely outclassed (Professionally and/or finically) 1) The cold feeling of, what does she think of me, is she just that much better than me? Can she respect/like me (or can I bed her) if I have just not gotten there yet? (Or not interested to get there) Would I have to do exactly what she says... 2) Then comes the, wait, I am a nice guy and ..... Ahhh Bull. This is going to be a wild ride...And let’s go for it! (The final part is normally when the guy is a strong man) So now the question is, can this work? (Mostly not and that scares the guys, as you said, he is not in control) Lucy as you are much better at this than I am I will leave it there with you. With that said, the teacher might just not think have a bad experience and/or miss-impression of “high flyers” (Or he likes to dominate and is not good with submission). And way good luck for the next chapter, you definitely are living some womans dream.

Not so clear cut
"); document.write("You do get men that feel threatened by women when it comes to careers and size of salary cheques. But I think that may be a minority nowadays. I for one encourage that my lady gets a big salary cheque so I can stay at home and look after the kids. I really don't see anything wrong with that !!. Muerte"); document.write("
Powerful woman
"); document.write("What's wrong with the ladies having there own careers, independence and wealth. I believe in a woman who works for what she wants in life and doesn't just marry a guy with money or use men. We men should wake up and realise that maintenance is at an all-time low and that now it truly takes two to tango.. David Hauser"); document.write("

Teacher Man

>.<
"); document.write("Lucy, you're quite a tramp. A seemingly easy lay. Maybe this came across and the decent guy who builds schools for the underpriveledged saw it and opted out, not wanting to have anything to do with you. I personally wouldnt go anywhere near you but thats just me. I still hope that this is all fiction and a crazy social experiment to measure peoples responses to your \"life\" experiences, because its somewhat sad how lost you are. You just never get a break...but if you did this column of yours would draw to an end of course. . Lonmark"); document.write("
You are great!
"); document.write("Lucy I think your honesty is great! I have the exact same problem than you concerning men and I am half your age! The irony of it all is, I don't even make that much money! But I am very passionate about what I do and very ambitious! I hate the fact that some men only see you as a pretty picture and as soon as they start realizing that there is more to it they disappear... I often ask myself what am I doing wrong? Some of my close guy mates tell me that I shouldn't be to out there and to ambitious. But know what I don't want to change. If I do meet someone maybe one day they must like and except me the way I am because I would rather marry at the age of 50 with the right man and have a few but fantastic year further than marry a ##### just for the sake of it and have 50 or more miserable years further... S. Sybil Doms"); document.write("
Bull
"); document.write("You see, guys like Chris and Tonto are the ones we do not want to familiarise ourselves with, we can't help if your egos are like membranes. Most men (not in the corporate world) are threatened by the alpha females of the 20th century. Lucy, I think you are doing a great job giving us all insight and a laugh!. sarah"); document.write("
@ chris and tonto
"); document.write("So if a guy has sex with a lotta women its cool? Even if you don't consider it that way, who gives you a right to label other people? Anyway, what's wrong with enjoying sex?. random oke"); document.write("
What is this? Glorification of a slut??
"); document.write("It is sluts like this one that give women a bad name. Probably long lost count of how many she slept with. Does she actually think this is an achievement?

Probably the teacher was clever enough to know what rubbish he was dealing with that's why he left.

Sluts like these are one of the reasons for the spread of AIDS and other venereal diseases.

You can put an expensive suit and jewellery on a piece of garbage, it might look good but is still garbage.

Would not be surprised if she \"slept her way to the top\" to get into any corporate position she claims to be holding. Mike"); document.write("
Ha Ha
"); document.write("Let me make a few things clear here, I do not! Judge Lucy, she is welcome to live her live the way she sees fit.
Life is made up of choices, good ones and bad ones, I merely suggested to Lucy that she might have read the situation wrong and should not beat herself up about it, some like you some don’t. (wow Sarah what a giveaway, your comments, I know it is hard out there in the corporate world - spent too many years there myself)
A message to random oke, get a life buddy then you might get lucky.

Youre losing it girl
"); document.write("Men have the seed, you don't apart from cloning which will be too late by the time we have destroyed earth.

You have had too many affairs and relationships to know where to stop or start, just keep on writing your
tripe as this is all you will end up having. Hey! and youre getting older...... "); document.write("
Lucy is a boy
"); document.write("Lucy is a boy with a Fantasy, You wake up after the dream, get up and
earn your daily bread.. "); document.write("
Try this
"); document.write("I went out with a woman who was younger than me PLUS earned more than me. It was awesome because she was generous and I knew she wasn't with me for my money, since I have enough of my own.. Martin"); document.write("
