My boyfriend and I were talking about cars. We were talking about the Honda 2000. I said it was kinda a chick car (like a BMW Z3 or Mazda Miata). He said is is not a chick car because for 1, many women can't afford them. What the hell? I thought that was completely sexist and rude. What do you think? Sure my boyfirend makes more money than me. But my mom makes twice what he makes.

Give that piece of **** a piece of your mind....he is definately a sexist. I will tell you this, my boss is a lady, the only one in the factory, and she controls 45 men all older than her in the Board of Directors...guess what she drives..............a Red Ferrari? Too expensive for a lady? Think again.....

It is becoming my experience that when men are feeling cornered in any way, no matter if you meant to corner them or not, they say the stupidest, most sexist things. If they only realized how stupid they are maybe they would choose their words more wisely. Of coarse women can make more, they are smarter, more dedicated, and more honest. There is nothing that a man has over a female in any area except their stupidity, and their violence. Not really too much to be bragging about. One day, maybe, men will appreciate their equals and try to stop belittling them at a drop of a hat. But then again, I wont hold my breath. Sorry about your luck.

yeah that is rude, but dont get your panties in a bunch about it, yes its sexist, but i guess thats just his opinion about. I dont think its worth starting an argument over. And your mom is older and has more experience than yur bf(i hope) So obviously she'd make more money

I think it is more likely that females spend less on cars than males do because they choose to spend their money elsewhere. I would rather take a kick-*** vacation, put money in savings or spend it on clothes than buy a more expensive car. Men buy expensive cars to boost their egos.

It is not a rude comment when it is true. I am 99% sure that guys on average make far more than women. I for one probably make more than you and your mom combined
