Hope springs eternal

Hope springs from a new survey making the headlines yesterday. In a recent study, 22% women now earn more than their husbands. The number was 4% around the time that I was born. Reportedly not only is it now acceptable for men to "be okay" with their women working, they can even be proud if she makes a good salary. Welcome to the 21st century!

Why does this give me hope? I have enough "baggage" to bring on the journey of a relationship. If I can leave the salary suitcase at home, it will hopefully make the trip a little easier to navigate.

  1. It should give you hope - it is about time those men caught up with this century :)! You are right - we all have enough baggage and we certainly don't need the salary issue to ruin things.
