And the effect is even stronger for girls who go to good schools and have a college educated parent. Of course article is positioned as this is a negative, instead of it saying that even young women want to have kids with top men.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-67940593911552572732019-04-27T13:51:04.867-07:002019-04-27T13:51:04.867-07:00Ignoring the male/female paradigm posed here, men ...Ignoring the male/female paradigm posed here, men can also choose jobs that pay well -enough (though not 7 figures) but meanwhile don't co-opt their entire lives. The issue of man as "corporate slave" goes back to the birth of the Corporate Man in the 1950s and was the subject not only of sociological treatises but popular fiction. Your choice depends on what you value.
