i agree with Sunnydyz there is a difference
because the majority of my co workers are male

We both have University degrees and are both in Management positions at our offices, however, the husband makes about 10K more annually...and I think this is due to the pay inequity of females vs. males....

Yes. I am the only member in my household. I have owned my own house and lived on my own since I was 23. I anticipate being the breadwinner after marriage as well.

I do not make more than my husband but I have in the past. I do however take care of everything and I do mean EVERYTHING around the house, raise the kids, run and take care of the bills, banking, packages, business...etc...so I guess it really depends on how you look at it.
He at this time makes more money than I do.
Don't let any man let you feel like you are less than him because he works and you don't. Let him stay home and do what you do for a month....he cann't. As stay at home moms, we work harder than most moms who go to an office every day. I know..I have just returned to work after 2 years of being able to stay home.

No I am a stay-at-home mom. I raise five kids and deal with all of the household issues. My hubby works a swing shift and I have health problems so it is virtually impossible for me to work. I do wish I had a job though because sometimes he makes me feel bad like I am not pulling my weight...

nope - I used to earn more than my fiancee - but I now have 1 child and 1 on the way so now am a stay at home mum which was my choice and I love it.
would be nice to have extra income - but kids aren't young forever so i'd rather have a life with them and then go to work for extra luxuries

Temporarily, Yes.

Yes, and I don't get child support either!
And I don't want it. If I pushed for child support, he might push for visitation rights. My child is better off not visiting him. I can support my child just fine with the Lord. And God has always made a way and with extras too!
Has it always been easy? No, but worth it!

Yes, I support myself and my 16-year-old son. It ain't easy, but all the hard work is worth it.
