[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do I feel guilty? No.   DH obviously feels lucky to be married to me and will bankroll this gravy train I am on.  Maybe its my beauty, maybe its my personality but I am not slaving away no more in the American workplace.

If I get equal pay as male workers,  paid maternity leave, non-hostile and non-sexist work environment, work flexibility and ability to telecommute, supportive coworkers and boss, no sexual harrassment, no mommy track, interesting work and a chance to climb the corporate ladder based on the quality of work, I will think about going back to work for pay.  In the meanwhile, I got a high earner and a great marriage - I am staying right on my sofa eating kale and bonbons. [/quote]

I completely agree with you. It's your choice to make.

OP and all the other judgmental closeminded WOHMs on this borad do not speak for any working mom that I know.

The people who can not hack it in the work place or in life always has a ready excuse. Oh life is hard, I did not get the promotion because of sexism....let me give up...I will marry a male oppressor, stay on my sofa and post about how hard and unfair the real world is because of all the male oppression..though you know it’s not them it’s you...you just could not hack....bet you are one of those emotional labor posters. Let’s face it, if a male was in your place you would be the first to call him a loser. Take a hard look at your life and know your husband married a quitter who thinks she is entitled to everything.[/quote]

Newsflash: Some spouses are actually supportive of a stay at home spouse. It's very typical in south Asia which is where my husband grew up. Most of you need to get a life. Find something better to do with your time.[/quote]
