[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The “Mrs degree” is just so absurd and offensive. The ladies at W&L are intelligent, high-achieving kids and to insinuate that they are there to find a husband is just unfair. Perfect post for an anonymous chat board. Idiotic, I’ll-informed and misogynist. [/quote]

Very “I’ll-informed”.  :P

Do you really think UMC parents send their kids to middle of the road state schools to get an MRS.?  Nope.  They send them to join the sororities where wealthy white, southern frat boy big law and MD and MBA wannabe go. And in VA, that’s  W&L. If you live in VA and know kids who attend, you know it’s true. I’m sure the women are smart and accomplished and all that. It’s what’s expected out of an Mrs. these days.

And I agree— aiming for your DD to get an Mrs. in 2018 is absurd and offensive. Plenty of parents (and kids) still have that as a goal. Meet the guy.  Do something like teaching to out him through grad school, and for a couple years after that. Then, pop out babies, support his career, and be financially supported as a SAHM in McLean. [/quote]
