[quote=Anonymous]I do agree with that. As a woman who makes around 300K I work many more hours than men in the same position (they make half a million). I also was routinely passed on promotions, given more admin tasks at work, which resulted in me taking more time/efforts to climb up. If you add the child birth and household duties on top of that (men are traditionally are not great at that, so working women still pull off most on the home front), this results in a huge tax on woman's body, time and own financial stability.

I went through this in my marriage (my ex was well paid, we were roughly equal but he didn't pull off the home duties), and I do not want to remarry unless a candidate can offer a really great lifestyle, which would take many daily tasks off my table. For example, if I could work less hours when I am with my partner, if he is indeed an equal contributor at home, with kids etc. Men should bring more to the table financially if they are not pulling it off at home.

I think I will be partnered but won't remarry after my divorce as it's objectively hard to find such a husband. I've met many guys who are working low stress jobs, live in messy places, travel cheaply, play music after 6pm devoting time to their hobbies and interests, and they don't plan to change their lifestyle for a woman. Being with someone like that would result in me working again like a horse while he rests aside[/quote]
