[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Piggybacking off the thread about the woman who doesn't respect her husband because of the work he does I was wondering how important is this for most mean because it was really important to my ex-husband. 
I was married right out of college and since my spouse made good money and I graduated with useless degree I stayed home or did temp work to fill my time. We didn't have any children. Soon after [b]my husband was making me feel guilty about staying at home since we didn't have kids and started pressuring me to work a full-time[/b]. He was growing resentful and I was sick of him being a jerk. Long story short, I divorced him, went to graduate school and today I have great career and I make more money than I ever thought I would. I work long hours 6 days a week most weeks. I I always thought if I made good money I would be more attractive to a potential spouse, but I'm not finding that to be the case. How important is it to a man what his potential wife does for a living? [/quote]

It's not jerkish to expect your unemployed spouse to look for full-time work.  The idea that you should never have to have a real job because you're a woman is pretty nuts. [/quote]
