[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was out of college working and a woman in the cube next to me was talking all day everyday about her investment banker boyfriend and his lavish gifts and dinners. 
I said girl I’m going to get me one of those. And I did. Like you, my mom never told me what was up. Thank goodness for that gold digger years ago that showed me the way. [/quote]

I am pretty surprised to hear self described feminist women brag about husband or boyfriends who have food jobs or how much they spent on their engagement rings.

I really naively thought we were beyond this. [/quote]

Well, we aren’t beyond the fact that women do 100 percent of pregnancy and recovery and roughly 65 to 90 percent of child rearing, cooking, housekeeping, and maintenance of family relationships.  All these things work to limit many women’s life time income.  It is smart to be aware of this. Sorry about your naivety. [/quote]

And if you can’t beat them, join them, right? uphold that patriarchy! [/quote]
