You do if the woman came to the second date after it was pretty clear who you are and told you she wants truth above all else.

She basically told him she cares not for his work and only wanted to see how he would treat her in this situation.

Yep, I didn't have a problem with that because she said she already knew about who he was. Now we can nitpick HOW she knew, considering they portrayed it as if there was no info at all about him online at that point. We can also nitpick why did she care about him? Money? She was selling high end art and said that once a suitor bought out the whole gallery to take her out. That implies this isn't the first opportunity to be involved with someone who had tons of money, and perhaps that one wasn't a killer. So I do feel that their relationship was a bit lacking in why either of them was so smitten so fast.

I also think that Kingpin in general was way too emotionally driven from the start to be as 100% under the radar as he started out. Still enjoyed the show a lot, but I think perhaps they should have had him very emotionally in control and even more hands off for the first half or more, and then slip into being emotionally out of control when things started falling apart.

Because, clearly, women are only interested in men because they're either a) hot or b) rich. No other reason. Ever. o.O

Certainly not, but they didn't provide another plausible reason. His sense of humor? His smooth charismatic charm? Shared interests? None of those really came across to me.

Maybe he has a brilliant legal mind, we haven't seen a courtroom scene.

He has power and he is not afraid to use it. She just might have been turned on by that. We don't know much about her history, but we know she is a woman in her 40is who keeps her looks nice and has no family of her own. She also had rich and influential suitors in the past and she only seemed to use the for sex.
She is not an average girl for sure. And he is for sure not an average guy.

Only on the internet do you need a logical reason why a person falls in love with another person..

Well, yeah, everyone knows love is sterile, logical, and that sexual attraction is an objective, universal phenomenon.

The series starts a little slow, but builds a solid momentum that lasts til the very end (except for episode 7, which I found horrible). Great show, overall! Just a little overrated because, you know, it's Marvel and all they do is awesome for the fanboys.

A woman like Vanessa? She is old and average, just acts as she is the best thing. Did you take a look at her hands?
I've seen men a thousand times fuglier that gets far better then that old sack Vanessa is (not on movies).

I don't get why men on movies always gets these old shitty females, where as in the real world, they get super hot ladies. Why can't the female be atleast 15 years younger then their men on movies? My wife is 10 years younger then me, it feels natural.

Look at asian movies, hell, just take a look at Grubby's wife. In real life, wives are hot, in movies, a disaster. If Vanessa was Leland's (the old money wiz) wife, it would be more in line with reality.
