If truth be told, our dream is to find a hot woman who makes enough money – and maybe cooks enough awesome food? – to never have to leave the couch again. But according to a new study, there are schmucks out there who don’t appreciate such a luxurious lifestyle.
The American Sociological Association recently presented a new study that revealed a significant number of relationships in which women are the primary bread winners end in cheating:
“Extramarital sex allows men undergoing a masculinity threat — that is not being primary breadwinners, as is culturally expected — to engage in behavior culturally associated with masculinity,” said study author Christin L. Munsch, an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Connecticut. “For men, especially young men, the dominant definition of masculinity is scripted in terms of sexual virility and conquest, particularly with respect to multiple sex partners. Thus, engaging in infidelity may be a way of reestablishing threatened masculinity. Simultaneously, infidelity allows threatened men to distance themselves from, and perhaps punish, their higher-earning spouses.”
Well you f*cking d-bag, why don’t you deal with your bruised ego another way? Like by getting a better job or ridding the world of your sad, old school way of thinking? Welcome to 2015, where women can get a job, make a sh*t ton of money, and balance a professional life while dealing with you being a whiney b*tch.
Maybe it’s the multitasking that gets her a better paycheck than you?
