flanrey: [size=14pt]Career woman or no career woman, the woman i'll marry must not earn more than me.... Most ladies cannot be controlled when they are more wealthy than their spouse[/size]

sanb: For real? I'll disagree with you on that!!!

sanb: I don't think so... probably it might just be the ones you've come in contact with...not all of us are the same!!! So generalising and classing all ladies who fall into that category as the same is wrong mehn...

flanrey:

Just maybe.....

Delfino:


Unless of course the husband is a very understanding type and independent too.

afam4eva: It's true...Career women tend to be less submissive

Reference: Most folks misunderstanding issues here. Career women, not rich women, not feminists. To this report I say a big yes because the software that drives a successful career is not compatible with the role of home maker.

Just to mention one factor. In careers there is the relentless drive for influence, power and promotion while in the family you enter and retire at the same grade level. Your boss is your boss for life. Some can't handle this disparity.

Orikinla: Not common in Nigeria.
Most of the career women in Nigeria are actually the most faithful wives since they are too busy to even have time to mess around. Married career women in financial institutions and IT and oil companies in Nigeria have been good wives and mothers as well. There are some exceptions, but they still made up with their husbands.

bukatyne: the problem that a lot of men don't know wat submission means or wat makes a woman to be submissive. as a man, if u think it's only u are only to provide for ur family/wife financially, then u ve an expiry date b'cos d moment she can fend for herself, ur usefulness has ended. as a husband, u re to provide emotionally, spiritually, u re to be a pillar, her source of encouragement and inspiration etc. he's to love and cherish her, to care for her etc so tell me ow a career woman can outgrow all these. it's d unconditional love of d husband that produces submission in his wife. the love of a man makes his wife blossom and when she does, she takes care of him! men, go and step up ur game and improve urself and see how beautiful ur marriages and relationships ll become! i'm tired of hearing women are not submissive; are d men playing their part by loving?

vascey: The dude is a social scientist.
His conclusion and inferences might be true for the west but not for Nigeria.
Social science often deals with the nature and culture of a group of people and behaviours surely differ from one group to another.
For example, people in our part of the world frown deeply at divorce, whether by a wealthy woman or otherwise.
I can even go as far as saying that there is a social stigma/perception attached to being a divorcee.
Anyway, until a similar study is carried out in our part of the world, I can not agree with their assertions.

Personally, I love me a career woman.

White007: Career woman are disgusting. You dont hear men running around yelling,I am independant and strong,you know why,because we are,we are born this way and its nothing in our lives we have had to achieve.

If your a woman and want to be a career woman,”a professional”which most of the time for woman,especially when they look for mates is code for goldigger.If they are professional themselves like even most men,they are just greedy useless consumers.

Kids to woman are like trinkets,toys.No one wants them so they literally have children to have friends that wont run away from them.There is nothing worst than a woman who has children,who is single,with no reliable man around or way to provide for the child who was just looking for a sperm donor because disney taught them they were princesses from day one,and feminism taught them they were better than men and sexual gods,and didnt need a father around.

Fast forward to today.Woman are single,unwanted,with children from different babies daddies,going to school,working full time and raising the children all by themselves which guarantees most men will run from them.

Basically woman are born with a lawyer and a pair of boxing gloves.Yippy hooray for the alpha female whos womans rights movement was coopted by the socialists to destroy america by putting two alphas in a home.Men are born alpha,woman have to be made that way which in my opinion shows “tinkering”by elements in the Usa that want to destroy it.Its straight up gender war fare,our woman have stopped being woman and act like men which is truly disgusting.Why am I going to treat a woman like a queen just because she has a warm body,is 98.6 degrees and brings nothing to the table but drama,a crew cut and a business suit??

jellyloveb:



You might try a better class of woman.You clearly have issues with women in general. I have a career and my hair is down past my shoulders, lol. And I’ll work, like millions of women throughout history have done. And a PRINCESS by the way, can be a woman who thinks that because she got pregnant that the whole world has to take care of her. The kind of women who use men as sperm donors and financial support aren’t likely to be working women. We can support ourselves without trapping some guy into a loveless marriage. Get some help before you meet a good woman and destroy her.

White007:


And then you’ll divorce him and take the kids and house.

math-diva:
When we say career women, i need a clarification, it it just relating to certain sectors of industry. Are teachers and lecturers not career women too, nurses and market women nko. Times have changed and people and cultures have to change with the times. Most homes now need the two parents to work so as to live life to a certain standard. All those saying that career women tend to focus on their jobs are not wrong, they need to focus on their jobs because if they dont they will loose it and that added income will be lost to the house.

As the number of women who acquire a certain level of education increases, so also will divorce rates. It wont decrease until there is a shift in social values because a time is coming when the only difference between male and female will just be physical attributes. A lot of people still think that there are different rules for men and women. That is why someone will give a thread this kind of title as if it is only the woman who calls for divorce. What I know is that modern marriages today require the two people involved to work at it and if one person is not be able to fulfill the duties, there is need for dialogue to determine a way forward, if not we may yet still see plenty of marriages ending in divorce.

sadeiyare: One of the reason for this is because most Men are just too demanding, because they have this stone-age mentality about marriage.
