Good for her - what's the big deal!

I earn more money than my husband. He's fine with it because he understands that it is money brought in for the household anyway, and that nothing is kept away from him. Yes, some of it is for myself (to buy things and do things for myself), but that's something that I earned, and he's quite ok with it. In other words, I married a good man who is not a chauvinistic pig.

if the family structure is a complete and happy relationship it shouldn't matter where the $ comes from, just that it is and should be considered "their" income. not hers is hers, his is his . my husband and my income differ and it doesn't make any difference how we got it, just that "we" have it. we do what we can afford and not beyond. we share our bills and our income. i do not have a bill that isn't his and he does not have a bill that isn't mine. if you have a mutual relationship and trust then it does not make a difference where your income comes from. of course this also applies to family obligations and house work, i don't think if i work harder longer hours, that i should come home to a terribly messy house and no dinner. i will not do that to him nor should it be done to me. you see, there is a lot more to a good relationship than money. it is commitment and maturity and respect. no more of this old, out- dated he is the man crap. today's society is not playing with that old deck of cards.

I have no problem with my wife making more money than me. We have afifty fifty relationship in everyting we do from housework, kids, bills etc. etc. When we got together we had nothing and we have grown together I am now a professoinal fireman ( so I am never gonna be rich), and she is a staff accountant. It works for us, I think for other guys it may be a pride thing ...........not here.

If my wife could earn more money than I do, I'm all for it...maybe I could retire early.

If i'm the husband i'd use it as a motive to work better and harder to earn more money. It's better for both of us.

I say "Good for her!"
There's no reason a woman can't earn more than a man. There's also no reason she shouldn't.

I guess its ok, but I think we need to get back to the days when the men went out to work, and the women stayed home and did all the cooking and cleaning and raising the kids, back before we had major crime problems, when familys stayed together, you know what I'm saying????

So? I made my wife capable by encouraging and sponsoring. Now, she may cross my income. So what?
