A Woman's Earned Money is her Own, but The Man's Earned Money is Theirs, Discuss?

Another factor, said Dr XXXX, was the professional woman’s expectation that the future husband’s income be in the $XXXXX to $XXXXX bracket. However, he said, the women did not believe in sharing their salaries with their husbands.





"Eight out of 10 women surveyed said they will refuse to share their money with their husbands, saying it was their money, while the husband is still expected to take care of all the household expenses.





"This will lead to men starting to wonder if they can afford to do so. In fact, there is a trend developing where professional men are starting to stay single."





Basically, it is summed up to:





If a man and his wife are both working, the women's earned money is her own to do as she pleases, but the man's money is for both of them and paying the daily expenses.





Talk about equality....

I say, wait until they get married and see if they still feel that way. Most households need both incomes.
Reply:if a woman wants to keep her income to herself thats fine, i'll take care of the household expenses, but don't expect for me to take care of anything on your end. when married both parties should help maintain household expenses, if the wife wants to be selfish about her income then perhaps she is not good wife material and should be kicked out and left to fend for herself with her entire income.
Reply:I don't think that it is right for a wife to keep all of her earnings for herself. It is important the husband and wife agree on a budget and how much "fun money" each should have. The hard part of course is agreeing on a budget.
