Do men feel threatened if their wives make more?

^ you know what, i change my mind:

you started off by saying “They should find a man who’s just as successful/ambitious as they are.” based on few example you mentioned later. But at the end of your post you confused me by mentioning the contrary example and gave some reason to that as well.

Point is, your beginning and end are contradicting, so I will not argue.

My apologies for the confusion.

Every couple is differnet. Not all high earning women are the same (just like not all men are the same). My 1st point in the original post was that women in this particular category SHOULD find a man equal to her in education/income/ambition. If they’re coming across men who can’t handle their success, they should not lower their own ambition just to pamper his ego. I may not have worded this well but my point that women should not take a “back seat” when it comes to their own ambitions just b/c the men they’re coming across can’t handle it.

But this doesn’t mean that every single man on this earth is incapable of handing a successful woman. It might not be common…but they do exist. That’s why I gave the example of the 1 couple I know.
