Not true. It's infinitely harder to go back to school after you've started a family regardless of if you're a man or a woman. Most of your comment is just nonsense.

You may be right about men no viewing women's professional accreditations favorably as a mate selection choice. But who cares? We all have professional lives and pruvate lives and we all exist in both spheres. They don't overlap that much. I wouldn't give a rat's ass what my boss thinks about my husband's looks or height or any of what "society" keeps blathering on and on about. I make my choices for me. Why would I give a rat's ass what my date/mate thinks about the value of my college degree or any of my professional certificates and accretidations. I did not get them to impress him, I got them to better support my family and move up the professional ladder.

Now, if he viciously maligns them to bolster his own flagging ego, I'm gonna care about that. But, not the fact that he's unimpressed with my professional accolades, no...I'm going to be concerned about him being dead weight in my life because he's sexist.

My desire to be the whipping girl of some failing man with liw self esteem ‹ zero. Always so much less than zero.

Dude's gonna need to find himself someone who's self respect matches his own negative and piddling energy.

I got better things to do than waste my life and my happiness on some fool who's only happiness is trying to make me miserable.
