[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a woman, I am smart, high libido, and ambitious.  Reasonably successful salary according to DCUM standards. Yes, I want a man that can match my drive. It's hard doing things alone and your man is content sitting and watching football all day or zoned out from his edible usage.

So, I am still looking.  .  .

P.S. I feel like my high libido is a curse.[/quote]

Is there anything in between?  It feels like on DCUM men are lumped into two categories: ultra-intense, 80 hour a week biglaw/lobbying/consulting/surgeon types who bring home $1million+ at the peak of their careers OR dudes who live in their parents' basement smoking weed and maybe make a few bucks walking dogs on the side.  Is there any room for the government attorney making $120k with a decent work/life balance?  Or [b]the family medicine doctor who can leave work at 4:30 to pick up his kids?  [/b]

Are we that incapable of seeing any nuance in this situation?  [/quote]

Mine's a psychiatrist; banker's hours and about $180K/yr.. He's outside building a swingset right now, and just made me a new cup of coffee. I'm grading papers that didn't get graded last week because we had houseguests and a b'day party (I work PT).

He actually quit Family Practice for psych because of the hours.[/quote]

Your husband’s an asshole who doesn’t accept insurance and charges $700 an hour to treat suffering people. Kids go without care because they can’t afford his services. Chew on that.[/quote]
