[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As I watch couples pair up it becomes evident how much of a difference who women marry makes a difference in their general life circumstances. Even successful career women when paired with equally successful men end up with twice the privilege and perks. I’m jealous that I missed out. [/quote] My former MIL grew up in genteel poverty. At 18, she had the “luck” to meet my former FIL. He was from a wealthy family. They began dating and married within two years. She has not wanted for any material desire since then, hasn’t done any housework, and her kids were set financially for life. She has not known affection or peace in the home. For over 60 years. Some perk.[/quote] You say this but she could have very easily not known affection or peace with a poor man, too. [/quote]
