waltappel 1 #1 June 22, 2007 Ok, since I'm getting crap for it anyway, I'll make it into a poll. Years ago I was telling a lady friend about my long history of relationships with women who could best be described as blood-thirsty, unfeeling psychopaths. (ok, most were not quite that bad). Her view was that if she were a guy she would only date women who have some sort of professional degree, be it MBA, BS in engineering, or whatever. In her opinion, women with professional degrees are far less likely to be drama queens. Judging by my own dating history, there may be something to that. What do you think?

waltappel 1 #4 June 22, 2007 Got any examples of a woman with a professional degree being a serious drama queen? My friend did not say that all non-degreed women are drama queens, she just felt it was more likely. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eeneR 3 #6 June 22, 2007 Though some times school and professional career can teach one who was a drama queen no to be. I dont think that a degree means they have a better chance at not being that way.She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeBobinNC 0 #7 June 22, 2007 I don't think the degree has as much to do with it. I think drama is mainly caused by a lack of maturity. Time spent in school may give a person time to grow up and deal with personal issues. Know thy Self...and all that. It doesn't matter if a cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice.

billvon 3,120 #11 June 22, 2007 Yes. People who spend muchof their time creating, discussing and lamenting the drama in their lives often do not have time for more mundane pursuits like education. (Note that "drama queen" is not the same as "crazy.") Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
