The driving emotion for women is anxiety. The dopamine associated with making a purchase temporarily alleviates a woman's anxiety as her brain adjusts to having slightly more resources. The next day, she realizes she hasn't addressed the source of her anxiety (hasn't locked in a mate/provider, hasn't produced children, doesn't have a stable residence/nest) and she is thus driven to spend again. Marketing/advertising jumps in to distract her from the real anxiety she feels and tells her that if she only buys *product* that everything would be perfect (which is why ads don't even tell you about the products anymore, they just show a happy family with a house using product and imply that the product is why there's a happy family in a house).

This spending cycle can be broken by a woman getting married and having multiple young children to tend to while a man works and brings home resources. Her anxiety, rootless before, has latched onto the children (who actually need the attention because they're helpless) and her overall spending is much reduced.

Kinda reminds me all of my current gf who always claims that she "doesnt care about money" and is "not materialistic at all". Yet at the same time lives in an unnecessarily large apartment with her sister, has no problem spending hundreds of dollars on christmas presents and her beauty products, skincare and god knows what else costs a shitton of money. Ah and she likes to go on vacations to blow 4 figures on that on a regular basis.

I mean she is an engineer and earns a decent wage but with her spending habits not much is left over and I just dont buy that she doesnt care about money or could live without all this shit. She is just consooming all the time. I mean as long as she pulls her own weight and doesnt spend my money so recklessly I am fine with it but still I think she blows a bunch of it on fucking stupid shit.

>Singles spend significantly more per capita than married couples do on food, housing, apparel, and education, and less on healthcare
Bottom right of the first page. The article doesn't split spending out male vs female, but the conclusion supports my main point, which is that single women blow money on stupid shit and that spending patterns shift when they get married and have children, meaning they spend less money on stupid shit (cosmetics, vacations, rent in expensive areas, eating out all the time, etc).

You can explain women's individual or group behavior using the same reasoning you would if they were children.
They consoom this much because they lack the necessary self-restrain to delay gratification, and because their idea of self-fulfillment is build upon external validation and group identity. Children are also impulsive, dumb, and easily influenced, but al least some of the male ones can be taught otherwise.

I did a quick google to see if I could figure it out and there's nothing jumping out at me. The OP image says NEW homes, which can make sense. Single women who are buying a home are more likely to fall for advertising of new housing developments (in my opinion) rather than buy a "used" home and possibly be stuck with paying men to come fix it up for her.

Single women also own more houses than men period, but articles point out that they have a higher loan to income ratio than men, which indicates to me that they do indeed prefer new housing developments which are more expensive than buying a house that's been around for a while. My guess is that single career women eventually realize that apartments are a scam just like men do, so they ape into a new house in a trendy city (https://magazine.realtor/daily-news/2019/02/08/where-women-are-buying-the-most-homes)) and I guess look for boy toys to marry and have move in with them? Honestly women make terrible life choices, it's a losing game to try to guess what they're thinking or what their long term strategy is.

That image is certainly bullshit.

>89% of bank accounts
Not plausible. Firstly, nobody "purchases" bank accounts as the image implies.

Secondly, if it's implying that 89% of bank accounts are for females, that's unlikely. If about half of the population is female, and 100% of them have bank accounts, that would imply that about 90% of men don't have a bank account.

At best, they're categorizing joint bank accounts with a husband/wife as "female", and even then, it's still not going to be enough.

You can have more than one bank account, and if your credit card is through a major bank, they'll require you to have a checking account as well, and women are more likely to have more credit cards... See where I'm going with this?

Yeah it doesn't make much sense to me either, but that was my best guess at what it really means. It does seem legit that single women as a whole own over a million more homes than single men though.

It's actually worse, they just don't care.

This is usually true. But previous generations of women weren't like this. Chances are your grandmother knows how to sew and cook and look after resources effectively to make them last, because that's part of running a good household.
