Lifestyles of the Rich and the Unmarried

I'm late to the game, but my mouth was a little agape at reading the NYT story last week about twenty-something women outearning their dates. Does this stuff really happen, in real life? Are Gen Y men really threatened by high-earning women? Let's face it: one area in which I wholeheartedly agree with Linda Hirshman is that women should not marry jerks. And if you can't handle your girlfriend/spouse bringing home more of the bacon, you are -- by my definition -- a jerk.

(And this in people in their late 20s. I was up to my elbows in Desitin by that age.)
