Filipino Men Prefer Career Women?

[dr. d]

I think depende pa rin sa lalake.

If a guy is earning big, di na ganun kaimportant if may career yun girl.

If naaachieve naman ng guy yun mga wants nya (big house, cars, able to travel) di na nya need ng help from the wife.

this is probably the type of guy who will think many times, before acquiring a wife.

while his matrimonial market value is probably very high,
he might not be for sale at all.

i don't think it's like "hanap nga ako ng babaeng may trabaho para may tutulong sakin"

that happens in lower classes

upper classes be like "if i marry a peasant i'm gonna get laughed out of town"

someone said, "marry within your caste".

personally, it's nice being a doctor.
doctors create their own caste.
there are no high-end doctors and low-end doctors.

marrying within your caste may also avoid a common complaint among married couples,
"... you don't understand..."

There is a strong tendency for someone to marry someone within the same profession when the early years of their careers have agonizingly long working hours. I have friends like that, they met at work because they're always at work. All those overtime dinners are just company paid dates

Doctors, Lawyers, and other professionals are probably the prime examples of this.
