So, here are some tips:
1. Make sure to keep yourself looking great...that means working out every day and going to bed hungry
2. Learn home arts such as great cooking, sewing, and washing
3. Subscribe to Sports Illustrated and learn as much as you can about the names of basketball, football, and baseball teams. Add in hockey and soccer if you have time
4. Get a job as a paralegal. I know tons of rich partners who have left their starter wives for a much younger, baby making mommy.
5. Learn to laugh at everything he says
6. Join a gym where there are more guys than girls
7. Read, read, read...get a broad range of magazines from HBR to People, Entertainment, Esquire, Wash Post, NYT, Wall Street Journal
8. Repeat until this strategy works
9. Tell all of your friends about your plan...they may know someone
10. Two of my SILs do this...one always criticizes my brother he doesn't make enough money...never do this!
11. Good luck! Your man is out there. I knew a guy from Harvard Law School who wouldn't date anyone if they wanted to WOHM

This isn't true. Most men marry in their 30s.
You get an A+ for reading comprehension.
I said the ones who would be the most enthusiastic about this kind of setup (that is, more traditional guys) marry up early. They're not available in large numbers and for the taking for women in their 30s, unless the woman is exceptionally high value.
You're so full of shit.
Oh, hit too close to home?
You're right. I'm full of shit. There are tons of ultra-committed, traditional breadwinner type men available for the taking by women who are in their mid 30s. Men who are kind, have it together and are capable of giving the woman they marry tons of options for whatever she might like to do are not at all in the drivers seat while they're dating.

I want to marry a man who can be a good provider and is okay with me putting the children first.
What should be my game plan?
Do engineers make good husbands?

Op never gave her age. Stop trying to shame older women.
So, first, I'm full of shit. Then I show you how silly your line of thinking is, and now I'm "shaming older women" because it doesn't fit your narrative. Got it.
The truth hurts!

These guys usually marry their college sweethearts or the first girl they date post college.
By the time you're 35 these guys are not in the dating pool. All the ineligible losers are.
Exactly.
