“Get” is a large part of what bothers me. I don’t like your first statement—“women are attracted to rich men” is still a disturbing generalization even if this attraction isn’t supposed to lead to “getting” anybody, and I’m not terribly comfortable with the implied goal of just “sleeping with attractive women” (although I won’t ethically condemn that goal as long as it’s pursued honestly). But the second statement is definitely worse.

Well, the goal could be to cause it to be the case that one has an unusually attractive wife, as in my case.
So having concluded that talk of “getting” women is a big part of why I don’t like the things you say, you go on to use it again immediately?
Oh no! I’m really sorry, I didn’t realize I had done that!
Ugh. Did you edit the word “get” to “cause it to be the case that one has”?
