think “I wish I could work at home tidying up the house for no salary and have no income of my own!”

No, they think that “since I’m a higher social class, I will not date anyone without a doctorate”. Women still largely tend to seek men earning more than them due to existing or perceived pressures, it’s just that since they now earn more, everyone is a bit lonelier.

To be clear, I’m not saying that women should go back to earning less, I’m saying that people should adapt and be happier.
