that bachelors is not enough for a girl to get married to a nice & decent guy as a minimum education? … why always most of the guys want their future wives to be highly educated? …what do u guys think should be the minimum education a girl should get?..what about islamic education??? i mean most of the guys say we need educated girls … well most of the girls after marriage become housewives … islamic education has everything in it & nothing is greater than islamic education… i m not against modern education & not saying that though but some guys want their future wives to be highly educated … if a girl did bachelors & a nice, decent & religious girl then i think thats fine afterall what she has to do after marriage lookafter house,husband & kids right??? …& thats what she should be doing ( if her hubby is earning good)… girls must be educated coz they can do job if needed at any stage of life & can raise her kids better but that can be done by having islamic education & a bachelors degree… why want highly qualified girl?

Re: I was just thinking...........
I wish you had high degrees so that you would not be generalizing at such a massive scale.
That is why it is important that a girl is highly educated so that she takes action on things and not just rant about it.

i m not saying that education is not important ............ why bachelors is not enough & why guys always want highly educated girls?

Because it makes them smarter.
Re: I was just thinking...........
A Bachelor's degree not enough? This is the first time I'm hearing it. I don't know of anyone who wants a highly educated wife. Even guys who are highly educated themselves (Masters, PhD).

& ...........
u mean a girl having bachelors degree cant be smart? ............ & smartness is the only thing she needs in future?

That is why it is imperative that girls get higher degree . I said smarter , with an -er at the end. They are smart even if they do not have a degree at all. But higher degrees make them smarter. Read my post again and you will know what I am trying to say.

Re: I was just thinking...........
1) Education is not attained only if you have/want to do a job/business. It helps you in your day to day life too.
2) Even if your husband is rich, he may expect/want you to work.
3) If the guy himself is highely educated, he may want his wife to be the same cuz most people expect to have a partner on same wavelength as them. They may think a lesser educated girl may not provide them their desired intellect.
Re: I was just thinking…
:k:
Looks like you are highly educated. 
Re: I was just thinking…
Unfortunately not going by the certificates I’m only B.A honours. But according to my field i have the best degree available here in Pak. I want to study further but not just for the heck of getting the label of “highly educated”.. so unless something in my area of interest gets available here in Pak, i shall wait :).
Re: I was just thinking...........
I actually dont care about eductaion..
Even basic education is fine by me. My wife and I are both more practical than theorist types.
Education is good but it's not essential... at least in my opinion.
Besides Education cannot compete with wisdom, skill and cunning which can be picked up only with experience.
You dont need a degree to prove anything except to someone else... so long as you can prove yourself to be independant... and able to survive.
Besides education can be picked up at any time... I did not see it as a requirment for my life partner.

I would second the third point. I don't care if she wants to work or not (i prefer she should but up to her).

^ This. In most cases, there is a noticeable difference between people who are high school gradutes or have a Bachelor's only when compared to people who have an MBA, PhD, M.D., J.D. etc. The difference can be easily seen in their verbal/written communication skills as well as their ability to analyze various topics. I'm NOT saying the girls with Bachelor's are any less intelligent that girls who have gone further in their education.....all I'm saying is that there is a difference in MOST cases.
The following is my personal experience: My SO is a physician and as a result, 99.9% of his friends are physicians too. Most of his male friends who are doctors have chosen partners who are also doctors. And ones that have non-doctor wives (or serious GFs or fiance) have chosen women who have MBA's and have their own demanding careers. The reason? My SO and his guy friends all have busy, demanding careers that require long hours. They want a life partner who understands first hand what it's like to have a demanding career. They want a woman who understands the dedication they put into their jobs, and a woman who doesn't have the desire (or the time!) to nag them about insignificant details of daily life.
I can completely understand if a girl chooses to start a full-time career as soon as she finishes Bachelor's. I know several girls who have a Bachelor's...no higher "degrees" but their steady career has provided them plenty of opportunities for intellectual growth. BUT if a girl is not working right after Bachelor's....then I'm not sure why she would not pursue high education. What's the alternative? Sitting at home and waiting for her wedding day?
