What's with the hating on career women? I demand hater equality..... Bash your male bosses more to make up for it!! (goes back to kitchen where she belongs)
It's not really a knock on career women. You ever hear someone say "men just don't like smart women?" I think there is some accuracy in that...or, more to the point, men are intimidate frequently by successful women. So the career man is usually more comfortable with the wife who doesn't challenge him...which could be a function of his own insecurity. But it could also work both ways...that you have to have one person in the relationship that plays the role of making sure the home life is good...OR, preferably...hopefully, in my dreams and hopes, you both sacrifice a little to take on parts of that role. But I'm willing to bet there are no couples out there composed of two fortune 500 CEOs.
And I feel like I definitely got some digs in at the power male who fucks up his marriage and his kids for the sake of being the Big Man down at the Cracker Factory.
Btw, at least out here, a common career path for women is to marry a guy who does something relatively stable, lower paying and lower hours, yet so ridiculously masculine or intellectually elite that nobody can ever question it. Examples: academics, think tanks, cops, secret service, retired military. Wouldnt exactly call them losers.
