[quote=Anonymous]I never encountered this "men need to earn more than their wives" idea as a current recommendation or expectation before I got on DCUM, and I'm almost 40. I grew up hearing that women could and should be equal to men. That meant I didn't expect my husband to make more, and that prioritizing both of our careers when we launched from grad school would also possibly limit both (e.g. making it harder to move for one person's opportunity). So it happens I make more now, and my husband is not useless at home. This is equality, guys. Where does this issue come from? Did you hear this stuff from your parents? Peers? I'm honestly curious because I thought this was old fashioned 20 years ago. [/quote]
