Yes.. However broad-minded the man, he will find sometime somewhere the girl is flaunting this extra acheivement and unwillingly trying to show him down including implicit unintended condescensions....😆.. The last time I heard..It is still a man's world...

Agree with you qwerty ji!😊

I don't prefer the idea of female partners being more educated,more intelligent,more dominating than male partner! The houses where the ladies boss the house donot potray a healthy environment! I don't mean the ladies should be un padh, nadan but the husband or partner should be more educated,more intelligent than the wife! So the basic critieria for falling in LOVE is HIGHER INTELLIGENCE and HIGHER EDUCATION😃!

In realistic world saccha pyaar,saccha dil will not work! These are my personal views!

Cheers,

Mythili

someone might be more intelligent at work. doesn't make them boss.😉 there are other personality attributes too. in a sense similar principles apply on the domestic front.

Does it matter if a girl is more educated than a boy? for marriage? the quality of relationship after marriage? Is it a reason for objection?😳

It does not matter if a girl is more educated then a boy but it does matter if he is not able to earn more then minimum wage. I have seen uneducated guys making much much more then educated ones working in good financial jobs. Higher education is just one aspect of a person and does not always garauntee financial success.

At the end of the day , a girl wants her man to be financialy independent and be able to support the family should she decided not to work. If a man can do that , no man or woman will feel insecure in a marriage.. Traditionaly a man's role is to provide and woman's to be pampered..😉

Now which guy will actually gripe about that? ok, maybe he would since he is so dumb. oh i dont know. u got me all confused now😆



Why confused? You ( IMO) are not trying to think like a compartatively lesser accomplished man married to this rocking hot and smart gal who is praised by the world for her SOH, outstanding job and probably personality too.
She sees something in the man that is outstanding, yet something that is not for the world to notice 😛.
Unless she keeps harping on THAT what makes him so outstanding and the only man she'd breathe to be with, insecurities are bound to arise.
Males (majority), by nature, are supposed to be the protectors and providers. They fight for being Alpha- their DNA be the only DNA passed throught their females. Their female dare not look at another male who may woo her. These are natural insticts.
Bums getting everything served to him on a gold platter is not free of his INSTINCTS. That is why troubles arise I think. Now if you already think you are way up there and that the woman cannot do better than you, then you cannot enter the mindset of this man- and hence, will get confused. Wear his shoes and then look for threats around. Look for insecurities within and see how the relationship begins to get affected.
Lbntl, BUM may happily snore away to glory in the arms of his loving angel, but males surrounding the BUM will be jealous and work on snatching happiness away from him.
I think an isolated bum may have lesser chances of feeling insecure. It is thus best imo to marry/ live-in with someone who'd be similar in terms of achievements and yet complement each other and know each other's limitations. Knowing down-sides of each other helps both the egos from riding above their mutual love and respect. After all, even the smartest and the sweetest person could be the dumbest in some aspects of intelligence :)

Oh that happens even when the girl is less educated then the husband...😆

Fwiw, I admire the way Jaya Bhaduri, Hema malini and Sridevi married the guys who at the time were lesser in their respective fields but nevertheless carry on with grace and dignity.

unless there's a reason why, i wonder why she'd take it. repeated over and over, this is emotional abuse.

QT, I meant sometimes we do see a lesser educated girl put her much educated husband down.. 😕 So it may not be the education but the girl who is at fault.

lol. only one guy so far who thinks a smarter woman would be a problem whereas most of the women think like that.

Just shows that women understand men more than men themselves 😆

now if the woman herself will have such a snobbish attitude, what's the poor guy to do? 😉 😆

Where does snobbish come in at all😊 If a MAN believes that education would make the woman superior to him, where does the womans snobbish attitude come in..... or is this just another of those things which can conveniently be foisted on the shoulders of a woman 😉

i think if the girl's smarter and she's still interested in the guy, then that means he's got something she doesn't. like maybe he might have a great personality or sense of humor. might even be the life of the party with his one-liners and his roving charming eye. in that case, he's bringing something else to the table and then it can work out.

Every relationship is about taking the best of each partner and making a viable/ working relationship..... the best of both worlds so to speak. If the guy is great, then education or no education would not stand in his way.... If the guy is great, then he would recognise that a defeciency (in a very oblique way only) of education in him can easily be rectified by balancing it with the education of his partner.... to make a "couple" in every sense of the term... one balancing out the other..

btw, doesn't have to be just table. could be other things as well. eg. bed. 😉

Agree... Ultimately, every relationship is unique, so a generalisation may not necessarily work... particularly in todays day and age when chauvinism is slowly fading
