I don’t see what’s wrong with expecting the woman to work… life is a lot more comfortable with two salaries than one salary. if that is materialistic, then so be it. the concept isn’t to snatch the woman’s pay check as soon as it comes in, it is to contribute to the family’s savings/well being. it makes so much economic sense for both husband and wife to work. the families where both husband and wife work get ahead so much faster. financial goals are easier to reach. and if it is true that money doesn’t buy happiness, then lack of money sure as hell does not buy happiness.
also, I can’t see how any educated girl in this day and age wouldn’t want to work. any normal girl should be bored out of her mind staying at home and not working . when you go to work, you don’t just to work, you learn a lot about people, the world and how it works. every person should have that kind of exposure and experience - good and bad. going into the workforce is an education in itself that university, etc can’t provide.
lastly, there’s nothing wrong with expecting a certain level of education from the girl. if the guy is educated and has a respectable degree or two, then he has every right to expect the same of his partner.
Well, I don’t see any two meanings of that statement. Khair, If you think that there is nothing wrong with stay-home moms then theres no discussion. If not then I think we can have a long and interesting discussion.
