Speaking of dated stereotypes …Seems husbands have no issue with their wives earning as much – if not more – than them. In fact, they are happier. Money magazine surveyed married couples over the age of 25 and found that husbands are actually happier when their wives make as much (or more) than them. According to the survey, 83% of the couples reported they were happy or very happy when the wife earned as much or more than her husband -- compared to 77% where the wife earned no money or earned less.
And another bonus:equal earning couples have better sex lives. Overall, 51% of couples where the wives earned as much or more as their husbands reported that their sex lives were very good. And get this … 56% of men married to women who earned as much or more called their sex lives “very good” – compared to 43% of men whose wives earned less. (The Frisky)
