I seriously envy all kept women. They have well manicured nails, elaborate hair styles, flashy cars, designer outfits and just about any thing else that they want. The weird thing though, is that these women dont have to work a day in their lives, they have husbands who are so affluent that the luxury lifestyle is inevitable. Most kept women marry wealthy businessmen, plastic surgeons, rich lawyers, CEOs and Executives.They pass the time by shopping, joining book groups and doing charity work. But most of all they are absolutely, positively, avidly, and obsessively devoted to their children. They run the PTA as if it's the FBI. They're constantly after the school board - and the teachers - to make the curriculum more difficult, so their daughters can grow up to be kept women too. They organize talent shows after school, they run girl scout groups, they agonize over their kids' unpopularity, and then when the kid actually gets some friends, they agonize over whether or not they're the right friends. However, most of them have held previous jobs like actresses, flight attendants, models, TV presenters and ex-beauty queens. Hmmm, I've never done any of that. I wish that could be me, instead, I get it the hard way. I have to go to law school for 5 years, which entails a lot of stress and depression(my undiagnosed disease), then once I become a lawyer, I have to bill for the entire day, leaving no time for family and friends, just so I can get a decent check at the end of the month. Its sort of unfair. I wonder if I'm pretty enough to be a trophy wife? Probably not, since most of the Jamaican trophy wives are very light skinned and are from a race that is far from black. Did I mention to you bloggers than being black in Jamaica is considered a genetic curse? Well it is, anyway... I have always wondered about trophy wives. Are they Stepford Wives? (Apparently not, because the trophy wife doesnt have to cook and clean and get her manicured nails all dirty.) Are they Desperate Housewives? (They can be, if said nail salon cant find an opening on a Saturday afternoon.) Rock stars in particular, like Mick Jagger and Rod Stewart, never take anything BUT trophy wives. And there are billionaires like Donald Trump, whose latest acquisition is model Melania Knauss. And what happens when the trophy wife gets older, like Bianca Jagger and Ivana Trump? Why, the men dump them, usually with a fair settlement, and take another one! Its like swapping your Jimmy Choos for a newer, better-looking model. The pattern, according to psychology magazines, is established. When a young man works hard for a living and finally climbs the corporate ladder, he realises its taken him years and hes no longer in his 30s. (Unless of course he works for Google.) He has it all, living the Western dream, but geez what should he spend it on? If youre a woman in that position, you already know the answer. (Prada, Gucci, Ferragamo, Cartier.) Shopping never gets boring. You can have 10 Moschino jeans and still have room for a Chloe. But what would most men do? "Well, a BMW is a good, sturdy car. And maybe Id get one of those new S-class Mercs." The old thinking was that the wife had to be less "smart for her husband to be the man of the house. But a new wave of trophy wives has emerged smart women who can hold their own professionally against their new husbands. The New Age man now wants a wife who is not only attractive, but able to earn top dollar. I think I have a better chance now that most wealthy men want intelligent women. I just hope I find one.lol. Well, I don't want to come across as a golddigger, but who doesnt want to be pampered? Source of Information-Star Weekend |
