Well let's see if they change their tune when it comes to gender roles on who pays for dates.

Pretty sure all of these employment statistics are cooked-up randomly.
Pretty sure women out-earning men in any mass-form is never going to happen.

Women only earn lots now because of artificial distinctions and jobs where they don't really do anything constructive. It is the same as saying 'By 2030 most companies will earn more money doing their admin work than they will producing anything for their customers.'

I predict more cat-ladies.

Women try to marry men of greater social status, wealth, etc. than themselves... As women out-earn men, the pool of men that women are willing to shack up with decreases.

Time to purchase some Purina stocks, I think.

"Men, do you feel threatened by a woman if she makes more money than you?"

players - how does everyone feel?

Let them earn more, it means more money for them to spend on players like us.

I don't think it's a matter of feeling threatened. It's a matter of accurately guaging the fact of hypergamy and calculating its likely effect.

Do you feel threatened turning the ignition switch in your car? No. Do you feel threatened by the fact of hypergamy? No. Push a switch, expect a result.

If I earn over 100k and she earns around the same or more, i would be ok with that.

If she was earning millions and i was earning over 100k i would still be ok with everything but i would spend my time learning how to match and/or surpass her financially.

As long as I earn enough money to support myself and do the things I want in life I'm ok with dating a woman who earns more than I do but I'm into submissive women and the moment she decides to make a power play in the relationship is the moment that relationship ends.

I think most of us here feel the same way. Not just in a financial sense, either, we've simply developed an unwillingness to put up with women's bullshit. The moment a girl decides to nag, bitch, or attempt to control, she's shown the door. There's always a better fish, right?

I'm shocked it will take until 2030 for the majority of women to out-earn men. Women are now the majority of Law Schools and Med schools, among others, and I think girls finally caught up with boys in math scores.

This link is from 2006, I assume the information remains the same if not more skewed. Basically it says if women make the same career decisions as men and are willing to be "a slave for the corporation" (their words), not only will they make as much as guys but in fact 17% more for the same job.

Interestingly, while women's earnings increases when they're unmarried, men's earnings decreases when unmarried since guys won't work as hard if they don't have a family that depends on him. I assume women turn to working to make up for the fact they can't find the guy they want and drown themselves in consumerism.
