You are confident in your manhood then, no one can keep a kitchen more spotless.

My kitchen is indeed immaculate, and I advise all young males to learn to cook a few things because it will get you laid someday.

Still waiting on that explanation, or you can keep posturing/flamingoing if you want

Feel proud that you are supporting your wife to be the best she can be. Don't let us internet posters ruin it just because some of us don't respect you for it.

So, fellas: would you leave your girl if she suddenly made more than you?

When my wife and I were younger she made more than I did for awhile because she picked one line of work (nursing) and stuck with it while I changed paths several times. Didn't care. Later on I made more than she did. Still didn't care. Now she's sick and can't work at all and can't do a ton around the house either, I care that she's sick but still don't care about the money side of it.

I know some men who care as well as some women who care. I also know a few dudes who marvel I stay with my "useless" (not my word) wife when I could divorce her, dump the "deadweight" and shack up with some healthy woman a decade younger. I don't understand them at all, and they don't seem to understand why their suggestion makes me angry.

Think we're a little off topic for degrees and student debt. The wife and I managed to both stay out of student debt. That was part of the reason she took off faster than I did out the gate--never wanted to go deeply into debt so I took longer getting going, especially after hamgstringing myself by changing fields a couple times.

It's a hypothetical. And apparently, women largely disagree and would say that this very thing happens all the time.

But you're saying the gender pay gap is a myth, right? So how would you tell women, on the whole, that they're wrong about it?
The pay gap has been proven time and time again to be about hours worked and field of work. Women tend to take up jobs where the pay is less. They tend to work less hours due to the following. If you're a woman and you have kids, you will work less and you will lose out on advancement simply due to missing work.
