[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The SAHMs on here will tell you things are perfect and their DH's respect them as equals, nay, respect them more than ever.

The people with paid jobs on here will tell you this is not the dynamic they observe. [b]The respect is more patronizing, and definitely not as a peer.  I agree with the PP above who says law firm partners have an uncomfortable relationship with their sahws.[/b]  They really do love and respect their wives, but when they say "she has the hardest job in the world" while the DH's work 90 hours a week, can't exercise, don't see their kids, and their doctor is telling them their heart numbers are creeping up.... (none of those things that they are happy about) - there is something disingenuous about the whole thing.  At minimum, they definitely don't think of their wives as intellectual peers.  [/quote]

I find this strange and I work.  Most men are too narcissistic to really care how their wife spends her daytime hours.  They put their own career first typically and don’t care what you do unless money is tight.  I find it odd that so many people on here think their husband is very into their wife’s career.  It’s not like the wife and husband work together.

What a deeply misandrist world view you have. [/quote]
