Then he asked me if I'd give up an acceptance at a top school and stay in the state for him. I laughed as I cheerily called a cab to take me home.

I get this thread is lolzy and it definitely made me giggle, but it reminded me of a guy who was scarily serious about the whole idea that women should stay home and make sandwiches. Somewhat more mature men in law school won't be like that....will they?
Some dudes are like this, and it drives me nuts. I run into it ALL THE TIME in the Army. Particularly older, field grade officers (colonels, generals, etc) find out I'm married with a kid, and they look at me like I have a head growing out of my ass. It's like the fact that I'm working outside the home just doesn't compute with them.

Thank god my husband isn't like that...or if he is, it's buried really deep. :) I told him I'll be his sugar-momma, and he's cool with that. A rare find in an Army officer.

I think most well-educated, mature guys won't think that. I personally would go crazy if my (future) wife was just a stay at home mom for the majority of our relationship. Still, I think the vast majority of guys want to be the primary breadwinner. It is a hard mentality to overcome.

Someone once told me the only job you're allowed to have outside the home is a fulltime womb, ala Michelle Duggar. :D Thankfully they were kidding.

I could care less, personally. I like my women able to take care of their own shit. I'll step in when extra strength is necessary.

I'm glad I don't have any one telling me I should be "staying home to be a wife" instead of going to LS.

I love that my husband has assured me that he will be a very happy stay at home Dad when we do decide to have kids, but if 7+ years down the road he changes his mind on that I am not worried about both of us working and having a family. Both of us came from families where both parents worked full time for most of our childhoods. It's not easy, but it's not impossible, either. I don't think it's nearly as black and white as people make it out to be.

Alright, can I ask how everyone is making the pics? LoL, I am reading thru random threads and whenever I see them, I can't help it laugh. If anyone can just point me in the right direction or tell me what the pics are called (I wanna say "meme's", but not sure), I would greatly appreciate it. Some of these are just too funny.
