Do men feel threatened if their wives make more?

I know a handful of women at work who are the main bread winners, while their husbands have taken a stay at home role- cooking, taking the kids to soccer practice. Their decision was based on practicality - the wife was in a position to make much more than the husband. All seem to be happy and well settled.
My colleague’s husband packs lunch for her - he even puts in a piece of cake or chocolate everyday because she loves sweets. I find it sooooo cute!
None of these families are desi though

I knew a woman whose husband worked a construction jobs and put her through law school. He would pack lunches for her, watch the kids, do it all while she crammed for finals and the bar.

But of course, the couple wasn’t desi.

Well, this is certainly interesting.

I’ve known some women that earn more than husbands but they don’t seem to be big headed about it. They seem to be handling it themselves pretty well…they’re not kings or queens. Now I am not sure about their husbands though.

Now is it possible for a couple to have a balanced relationship if wife starts to make more in during the course of their marriage? Who says no to money for the sake of someone’s ego? I don’t know anyone that would do that.
