[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] what do you think the vociferous defense of mediocre men boils down to? Either women can have high standards, and insist on partners who contribute in all areas of life, or we can’t. Personally I say that we should, and if such partners aren’t available we shouldn’t settle.[/quote]

The problem is that you are mediocre and do not realize it.

Post all you want about how you will "never settle." However, if you were truthful you would also write about no one wanting to settle for you.[/quote]

I’m married with children. To a partner who also has an Ivy League degree and our HHI is the top 3%. There’s plenty you can say about us but we’re not mediocre. [/quote]

Top 3% HHI is about $351k in 2022. If both of you are working in a HCOL locale, that sounds kinda mediocre—especially for dual Ivy degrees.  [/quote]

Bam!  Came here to say the same thing.  Leveraged top 0.1% of college education to get a top 3% income, made even lower by HCOL.

Mediocrity masquerading as meritocracy right before our eyes.

OFF TO THE WORK CAMP!  Except your husband, he can apply for a stall at the sperm farm.[/quote]

Top .4%

Try harder.[/quote]

Ok, top 0.4% education (dual earners too!) only get an income in the top 3%.  Yikes.  Have you told your parents how far you’ve fallen?  Do your friends know how low you rank in income earners?

Don’t worry, you’ll get the more desirable jobs at the camp - afterall, you are at the top end of mediocre.  Congrats!  [/quote]
