[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you'd followed the thread, you'd see the reference to your husband was a reference to an earlier post re: husbands being bored with SAHWs.[/quote]

Well, I am not a SAHW, I'm a SAHM who has had a long career in a high-powered job.  My point is that you do not have to have a career to be "interesting". It's a matter of personality.[/quote]

Depends what your spouse and friends consider "interesting." I consider my work more interesting than many topics.[/quote]

Good for you, I'm happy for you.  When I worked in public policy 9-7, 5 days a week, the last thing I wanted to discuss when out at a dinner was my job.  I'm all for career women and I think it's fantastic when someone truly enjoys their job.  I certainly don't think working makes someone less of a parent.  We all make choices and do what's best in our individual situations.

But, your comment that women who do not currently have careers must be boring was one of the most ridiculous things I've heard ... then to add to that the comment that getting one's information anywhere but "from the source" (ie: working directly in politics) - makes you sound like such an insulated bore!  Basically at that point, you're saying any person who does not have a career in policy is not interesting!

By the way, since you're so important and busy and interesting - how are you devoting so much time to this forum?  Makes me laugh.[/quote]
