“Marrying a highly educated women means you are marrying somebody you can have intellectual conversations with, somebody who will support you & help reach your goals and it also ensures a double income household. Only a fool with a fragile male ego will deem it a red flag,” one supporter wrote. Another added, “Marrying a highly educated women means a friend for life who understands your goals , who will be a role model for your childrens, and have a better understanding of changing dynamics of society.”
And of course, there’s always a blunt response: “Yes please don’t. She ain’t your cup of tea. She deserves secure man.”
Think about it, can we consider ourselves modern and inclusive if such attitudes persist in our society?
