But what do options does husband have if wife starts earning higher than him when they are 10 years into the marriage and 3 kids to boot and everything else remaining constant?
@MWAFRIKA
Can you answer the query from Mama Wendz?
@ XSK
This is the sad reality of life. In this situation the woman -now dominant partner- has the capacity to sink the marriage if she becomes petulant due to lack of wisdom. A wise woman is as rare as an intelligent pro-yes politician.
Consider what a nasty experience it is to have a woman boss: all the drama, the emotional roller coaster, decisions made on the basis of 'feelings' and that sort of nonsense and a complete inability to make coldly logical decisions. These are the hallmarks of feminine tyranny.
Therefore, that marriage will be strained. If the man decides to stay he will be humiliated on a daily basis with decisions being made without him being consulted because 'its my money anyway'. The man will usually lose all self esteem which he shall recover by having mpango-ya-kando with a broke female who will boost his self esteem. Either way the marriage will end but the shell may remain. There will be incidents of violence. If that is your situation, my condolences. Pole sana.
The bible says its better to live in a slum in the middle of the desert in wajir than to be in such a house. And if God is saying run, you better buy rubber shoes.
