[quote=SUMMERSNOW,307517]Jane Austin said, ‘it is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.’

Are all the weathy men’s wives belles? On the contrary, a great number of rich men’s wives are not belles. Why? A popular explanation is that God is fair. He endowed belles with beautiful outer appearance and meanwhile spoiled the beautiful girls. Beautiful girls are flattered by people around them from their childhood to adulthood. Beautiful girls thought that they have an inborn advantage (beauty) over other homely-looking girls. They thought that they don’t have to work hard at school and at workplace. Whereas, the not-so-beautiful girls understand that they don’t have inborn advantage. They know that they can change their destiny only through studying hard at school and working hard at workplaces to make up the so-called disadvantage (homely looking). Finally, they surpassed the belles and won over the wealthy men’s hearty by their charm and temperament.(cultured manners).  
 Do you agree with the explanation?

A question for men: why do wealthy men choose to marry not-so-beautiful women? 
Another for women: do you think how a belle can marry a wealthy man?
