[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boys (particularly hetero boys) often have concerns that they earn an income significant enough to support a family, which drives them to business, computer science, data analytics, etc.  I think few kids grow up and say my life's dream is pharmaceutical sales (or whatever the lucrative job may be).

I agree. That's what my son son said to me. It is tougher for boys. I could not have afford a family/home/car/vacations alone without my husband's much higher income.[/quote]

wow sexist much.

Both of my "girls" make upwards of $500,000 a year. One has always made way more than her "husband".

I raised mine to take care of themselves boy or girl no different. Only different to MAGA OR ULTRA RELIGIOUS IDIOTS.[/quote]

Have you read posts on the relationship forum here?  Women are often resentful when they significantly out-earn their husbands.  Many women want to marry someone who is at least a peer earnings-wise, if not someone who out-earns them.    Few women would be happy making $500k themselves and be married to someone making $100k.  Yet the reverse gender-wise is common.  [/quote]

New poster.  You make a point.  I do think women are becoming more successful and some are okay with being the higher income earners.  But most I know still prefer to have their partners to make at least the same as them.  For husbands who don't make as much, they are in jobs that their wives have to value as at least respectable.
