If it's a well-paid job that one doesn't like, or if it's a not-so-well paid job that one does like, it's more likely that one will seek a partner who'll bring in money.

Well, that's what I mean, it does...Hi Phillip,<br /><br />Well, that's what I mean, it doesn't actually explain it, it just opens a new question one way or the other. Why are women on the average not as well paid as men? Why is it more likely that the woman takes on a job that "can't feed a family" than a man? Why do woman prefer men who earn more? Is it maybe because they themselves don't earn that well?Sabine Hossenfelderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151209308084588985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-10402366258226468002013-07-03T08:54:03.752-04:002013-07-03T08:54:03.752-04:00I agree that it is old-fashioned.
