[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most men do not expect their wives to make 50% of the money. They do probably expect you to do more of the housework and child rearing though.

I think the majority of men are quite happy making the most money, and probably prefer it this way. [/quote]

This is unfortunately true for many marriages.  My husband really doesn't care how much money I make or don't make.  He views it as an added bonus.  He seems to have some primal drive to provide for us.  I sadly think he'd be more upset if our home didn't look nice and we stopped going on vacations and socializing with friends.

Sadly I don't think the desires of men have changed that much.  They simply have less power now than they used to hold.  I have a feeling there are many women with careers which our husbands could give or take.  [/quote]

My husband is like this.  I am a doctor at a major academic hospital, but he treats it like a little hobby I have in addition to making the house run and raising the kids and gets very annoyed if it inconveniences him.  It can be frustrating.  [/quote]

Ok, you know what? If you're an MD, that's a big deal. You've got a point. You're God.

But if you're not an MD, no, the guy doesn't care about your career. He didn't go out with you because you had 2 advanced degrees; he went out with you because you were fun. He married you despite you being a hardass at work, not because of it.

Not true, the less a man makes the more his wife's salary matters. So even if she is not an MD, if the H makes $60K, a woman making $50K is a big deal in term of finances.[/quote]
