First timer here - so go easy! However am a feminist, so read others' stuff with interest. Anyhoo, my bugbear is this. I appear to be the poorest of a fair few of my old school friends, because I earn more than my partner but am a mere secondary school teacher. The friends who are better off than me do not work at all, but 'married well'. We had good all girls private education which seemed to promote the idea of equality etc. But did I miss the real point? Were we only educating ourselves in order to gain access to the wealthier men? Am I the only fool who never wanted to rely on a man for money? Seems a bit of a phyrric victory really...
