Är mannen dömd att vara hatad av kvinnor på grund av sex mot resurser tänket?

58 procent av kvinnorna tvivlar på om de skulle ha råd att lämna en relation. Det är en ökning med 16 procent på ett år, och en effekt av räntechocker och historiskt hög inflation. Det slår mot jämställdheten och kvinnors livschanser för de med osäker privatekonomi, menar Anna-Lena Wretman, vd för Fundler som själv gått igenom en skilsmässa.

Tucker Carlson made the following statement: “Study after study has shown that when men make less than women, women generally don’t want to marry them. Maybe they should want to marry them, but they don’t.”

Carlson was vilified for those comments, but a recent study proves that in some significant ways worth further study and consideration, there was merit to Carlson’s assertion.

That survey found that 71% of adults thought it was very important for a man to financially support his family if he is to be a good husband, while only 32% (and 25% of men) felt the same about a woman doing so to be a good wife.

With women now surpassing men in educational attainment, and the most educated women more likely to be married, it seems reasonable to assume that a husband’s income would be less important to the marriage contract than in the past, particularly for women with advanced degrees. But recent research indicates that is not the case: male breadwinning continues to be central to not only marriage formation but also marital stability.

A New Zealand dating service, Elite Singles, has revealed that most women would not marry a man who earns less than they do, as 70 per cent of women admitted to seeing their partner's income as very important, Stuff.co.nz reported.

...“Women’s orgasm frequency increases with the income of their partner,” said Dr Thomas Pollet, the Newcastle University psychologist behind the research.

...He said: “Increasing partner income had a highly positive effect on women’s self-reported frequency of orgasm. More desirable mates cause women to experience more orgasms.”
