[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Feminism is part of what makes a good wife, IMO. Part of feminism is being on guard for internalized patriarchy. That crops up a lot when wives send signals to men that they don’t want their husbands to look weak, and that they believe that how much money a man earns is related to their value as a partner.

So I say become more of a feminist if you want to be a good wife. [/quote]
OP here. No thanks. [/quote]
NP here.  Huh, OP?  Do you believe a man's worth is tied to his earnings?  Do you believe men should keep up appearances of strength?  Really?  [/quote]

OP here. Not fully, no. Men do have a place in the world as a provider and protector. All woman, feminist or not, seek men who make a good living. It’s in our DNA too seek out men to help provide for us. I think part of what makes a good spouse is his potential to earn ands provide, whether that be $50k or $500k/year.[/quote]

+1. OP is very naive but she’s right. Do you think your husband and many other men married you for earning potential? NO! They married you because you’re hot ( to them) and were willing to sleep with them. Men are simple - food and sex is really all they need. Thai thread has proven many times most men care very little about a woman’s education and career, but they care if she’s hot, fit, and willing to give then sex. Men who are making
 money don’t want a partner who makes money. They want someone to feed them and f*ck them. [/quote]

This is absolutely not true for professional men. Some absolutely care a lot about career and education and earnings of a woman. Many want an equal. Not someone to support. Mine wanted a specific income or he would not be dating that woman (only sleeping with her). [/quote]

I'm a lawyer and by far the spouses are... other lawyers.  Otherwise their wives are engineers or technical writers or so on. The only person I work with who has a stay at home spouse is female and her husband also does freelance art and does pretty well.[/quote]
