That's why it's important for the guy to always be more educated and have a better career than you! :D Coz guys can get insecure if their wives earn more or are more educated than them.
Ur comment holds true for alot of couples- i know of a couple who wee facing this same issue- the husband was the one with a problem- not that the wife was equally educated but that she was working and earning as well as the hubby ( the hubby actually wanted a working woman!).....so really it comes down to in this instance the husband wanting to control the wife - at first it was cool that both were working but then as the wife has her own money - that gives her her own financial independance and this was the crux of the argument- so when a man says hes cool with a working partner- always double check!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
