After of year of triumphant grandstanding (End of Men, Richer Sex), we get this gem:

Quote:A Marriage Mystery: Why Aren't More Wives Outearning Their Husbands?
With women taking more than half of the country's new bachelor's degrees, many of them should be the chief breadwinners in their families. They're not. How come?

Uh, I guess a Masters in Human Resources does not a breadwinner make?

This whole article is filled with hamster-rich gems:

Quote:The rise of women in the workforce has been hailed by The Atlantic as not only the greatest economic development in the last 50 years, but also the most positive overall development in the whole global economy.

What, not computers, but HR drones. I guess feminism and outsourcing combined equal higher profits

Quote:This classic approach to marriage economics might explain why there are fewer overall marriages. But it fails to explain something that might be even more interesting: Why there are so very few marriages where women earn more than their husbands, and why such marriages are so troubled.

Doesn't the first part explain the second part?

Quote: For women and men at all income levels, more work in the office usually leads to less time spent doing chores at home. But suddenly, when a wife earns more than her husband, her hours spent on chores and childcare go up.

Maybe this is the whole Lion/Pimp Analogy in Action? My friend uses this to brag how he'd wouldn't be a kitchen bitch if househusband.

Then after trying to dance around the biomechanical and social dynamics of marriage, the final paragraph emerges, cultural marxism and hamster logic galore:

Quote:Well, they'd better get comfortable! Women are going to be the primary breadwinners in more and more families for so many reasons -- (1) the shift from brawn economy to service economy; (2) women's growing share of college degrees; and (3) sexism softening among male-dominated industries as women establish themselves in more positions of power. A national aversion to successful wives is a really bad recipe for economic growth and family formation. Get over it, guys. It's a woman's world, now.

Yes men, MAN UP AND SUMBIT TO YOUR SUPERWIVES, because we all know college degree is the only criteria for economic success and pushing papers is what makes an economy strong. WOMEN, marry those kitchen bitches, forget about dry vag, you got TPS reports to turn in!

LOL, everytime I see Atlantic headlines on Google news, the manosphere is validated as sarosanct truth. [/quote]
