blue collar men have fewer marriage prospects

That was the headline. In the study they found that men with a high school diploma and no job had a harder time finding a wife. So the conclusion most of the commenters came to is that women are gold diggers.

But did it occur to any of these commenters that a lot of blue collar men have very traditional ideas about marriage? In other words, how can Mr. Blue Collar without a college degree or job expect his breadwinner wife to go out, earn the money, and then come home and cook, clean, tend the children, and massage his feet every night?

Maybe these guys would be more marriageable if they were more flexible about how they viewed marriage?

But men do contribute to the chores these days, besides I think it's more about the lifestyle these man can afford..

not all men do, or they still consider it women's work so they expect a trophy. you'd be surprised how often this issue comes up.
