***I guess that's true in some working or middle class families, but certainly not true in the upper middle and wealthy classes any longer. The men I know brag when their wives make more than they do :)***
I think it's more a regional thing then. It may not be true where you are, but around here it absolutely is. But then- what would *you* consider "upper middle class- wealthy"?
***Could you really financially support a family of 4 without a college degree? What would you do to earn a living?***
Yes- I could. My certifications are in drafting with structural detailing specialty. Granted, I'd have to grab a copy of the latest CAD version, but I pick up things like that really quickly. ;)

LOL! ;) Oh definately! Mine are just still a bit little to be 'helpful' in that sense. Although yes- DS is getting to the point where he can start learning. ;)

Cool re: the drafting.

So because some men can be neanderthals, I'm supposed to somehow feel subserviant when mine *isn't* just because some men make their wives feel that way because *they're* unappreciative? I should somehow feel subserviant because I *enjoy* being domestic and being with my children and am able to do so? *puzzled*

Thanks :) I'll have to go find one... Sounds like it'd be well worth it! LOL!
