Stereotype.
Spock, really? Do you know any engineers or scientists. Both areas cover a large number of careers with different skillsets.


Yes I absolutely do, from ugrad and work.
I even speak aspie.

The mba ones make the money and can flex.

Male painters (and Sculptors) are notoriously moody/difficult. For artsy types, go for graphic designers, printmakers, woodworkers, architects.

Both of my sisters are married. one to an artist ( photographer) man one to a scientist ( engineer).

They both seem to be good husbands, but they are both kind, considerate and respectful men.

Trick question. "Husband" is not a job with a set of requirements. It's a relationship with a specific context. This is like asking "Who make better kids? Sporty kids or bookish kids?" Like... it's beside the point.

Who make better husbands? Pros and cons of each?



How about a Computer graphic designer? That's my DH, great with kids but nonemotional and introverted so he doesn't seek out other women and men.

PP I meant to add that he's a blend of artistic and science.

Artsy. And by artsy, I mean straight, clean cut theater/dance guys. Good looking and really committed/disciplined, what a mix!

My husband is an electrical engineer. I'm a lawyer. I think our personalities fit together better than mine would with an artist.

Everyone loves my husband. He's on the quieter side but is really funny, very easy going, and can solve just about any problem.

So from my sample size of one, I say science-y men, but I think it depends a lot on the woman. I could see an artsy, live by the seat of your pants kind of woman might not find him appealing.
