Yes, women can afford to be pickier than in the past because she can earn her own way. Yet, part of being pickier is wanting a man who out earns her. My suggestion to the liberated women of the world is don't disrespect men who earn less than you do. If we are the evolve into a more liberal equitable world, then Women need to drop some of their outdated preferences too.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Of course. With liberalization woman no longer need men which especially harms low status men.
I think many women would like a partner but they’re not going to settle for some knuckle-dragger if she out earns him. I mean come on. No one would (should) put up with that.

Here's the thing...is it sexist to want a more traditional wife that would be willing to stay home and raise the kids...at least the first few years or so until school starts?
No.
Is it sexist for a woman to want the man to stay home at least until the kids start school? What if she makes more than him? Wouldn't it make more sense for him to stay home?
No, it's not. There are stay at home dad's. That's fine too.
But I'll tell you this...my DH would never have made a good stay at home dad...he lacked the knack or rather "motherly instinct"...also, seriously how do expect the father to breast feed? I know there's pumping but that's not always convenient as I will attest to.
Of course it makes financial sense if the wife makes significantly more than the husband...but let's assume they make the same...I'm not going to tell you that all women have the "motherly instinct" but most do and that is simply human nature.
I for one would have loved to have had the option to be a SAHM...but we needed both salaries and I was blessed to have had my mom care for my kids.
My DD has told me that she wants to be able to be a SAHM for first years. I mean it's basically a conversation to be had before marriage anyways.
I respect everyone's beliefs on what a traditional family should be, so should you. I find it ironic that you don't appear to.

Of course it’s perfectly fine for a Dad to stay home with the kid if that makes the most sense for the whole family. Good men are more than willing to contribute to the family like that. Less desirable men are the ones who are not emotionally secure enough to agree such an arrangement.

It seems like a wedge is being drawn in society. You also see women in cities going nuts in their 30’s and 40’s trying to find a “suriable” man (high earner) and not settling. Many didnt think they wanted kids, but ultimately biology kicks in and they decide they do, but it’s too late so they end up having a kid on their own via IVF.
It’s just strange time. Also, it doesn’t help that IVF will prob be outlawed at some point.
Because the entire academic curriculum from K-8 is dominated by women and taught for females.
Males learn much more through visual and spatial learning rather than sitting there like rote drones to spend female teacher go on and on at the board.
Here's how you learn - take apart a car and rebuild it. Or throw a pile of junk in the classroom and tell the kids to build the most stable bridge they can. Or take them to a construction site to rewire a room in the most efficient way possible.
Of course learning never happens like that. You force boys with tremendous amounts of energy to sit for 6+ hours per day learning times tables at the board, going through vocsbulary flash cards, or doing lamewad sentence diagrams at the board. Then when boys cannot sit there like mindless drones doing rote memorization crap, the solution is drug them with ritalin. The vast majority of children on drugs for 'attention deficit disorders' are male. It's a mass drugging of boys simply for being boys.
The funniest part is that the vaaaaaaaaast majority of women are utterly helpless in the real world. For all of that college education they still rely on men to fix their cars, fix the plumbing in their homes, fix the electrical work in their homes, and to make sure the sewer systems work to keep society functioning. As the pandemic exposed, 99% of white collar jobs are utterly worthless for survival. The stock boy at Costco is more vital to the economy than the best majority of BS jobs filled by college grads. If the country were ever attacked, we would require electricians, farmers, plumbers and carpenters for our basic survival while all of the college professors teaching philosophy, lawyers, bankers, and the virtually all of the other worthless white collar losers would be inconsequential to our basic survival.
I was waiting for this thread to finally get to some douche bag wanking off to their post apocalyptic fantasy where they finally are the big man we’ve all been waiting for. Ok big man, we concede, when the world has finally completely gone to sh—-, it will be your time to shine.
Look out everyone. Angry Karen is here. She has a college degree and an alphabet soup of titles after her name, yet somehow she can't even change her own oil or replace as pipe leaking in her house.
Utterly pathetic survival skills!
Anyone now can watch you tube and start to teach themselves how to change the oil and do some simple plumbing. It's valuable work but it is not rocket science.
Hahaha, until you mess up your electrical work and burn your entire house down.
You'd die at this very moment right now in this heat of your electrical went out and your entire panel needed to replaced (99% odds done by a man). Meanwhile, no one's lives would ever be affected of you lost your corporate banking job they required so much 'education'. You are so helpless even with the alphabet soup after your name.
Someone taught you how to change the panel and you learned it. You could learn about banking if you wanted to learn about banking.
You said you could learn via YouTube.
Yeah, why don't you go right ahead and try to learn how to change out your electrical panel from YouTube. Make sure you have good life insurance.
5+ years apprenticeship training, exams, and licensing? Who needs that?
Electricians are way more vital to national security, life and the functioning of the entire country than some stock trader or finance major from Harvard. Gee, whatever would we do without Wall Street Lara making banking decisions that ruin the entire economy like 2008?
The post was about changing the oil, not replacing the electrical panel. I respect the knowledge required to change the panel is significantly more complex then an oil change and I would not suggest a you tube video for that task.
But to suggest that women are not appropriate to learn how to do electrical work or that men are not appropriate for learning about stock trading is silly.
No one is arguing that women can't learn how to do electrical work. We are just laughing at the fact that women think they're doing better simply because they have more useless college degrees now than men even though it leaves them $80k in debt to get barista jobs while they've learned absolutely zero practical life survival skills relevant to the real world (like changing your oil, changing out a broken pipe, basic carpentry work, etc.).
Wow, so impressive you have a college degree and yet you gotta blow $1000 at the mechanic to do your basic maintenance work on your car (probably done by a man) just so you can get your overpaid white collar job zero people would ever care about if you lost it, lolol.
I can appreciate practical skills. I don't have to go through life without an education in things other than practical skills. Both are important.
You can get an education at a library with a free card rather than $80k in debt for a price of paper..speaking of YouTube, everything with respect to coursework is free for any subject on YT .

Oh true! I was so stupid in getting that Physics PhD, I should've just gone on to Youtube to get my training and prepare for research!!!!!
And yet the physics PhD can't even fix their HVAC system when it breaks down in 105 degree weather. Thank god they can do calculations for a Higgs Boson particle though!
