Modern woman

The times when it was considered the norm that a woman stays at home, gives birth to children, keeps house and dutifully waits for her husband to come home from work is long gone. At the present time, the housekeeping and upbringing of children and the achievement of certain heights in her career also fall on the shoulders of women. When we hear the expression "modern woman", an image of a sort of unapproachable selfish woman immediately pops up, which only does that it is busy with some calculations, thinking through various working schemes, and such a modern woman must be alone without her husband and children. Of course, in our society there are enough successful women who, having many material benefits, are alone in their lives, such loneliness is like paying for what they have. Lonely and successful; married housewives are the two extremes of the modern lifestyle of women, and if a woman is married and successful is an exception to the rule or a happy medium?

If the wife earns more than her husband

It is believed that the basis of such a union is the choice of a female representative of the so-called feminine type (psychologists have developed a theory of psychological sex, in which there is a feminine type - feminine and masculine type - masculine), this does not mean that such men have a high timbre of voice and cutesy habits they just have such traits as kindness, gentleness, pliability; while women of the masculine type have such character traits as aggressiveness and enterprise. In our country, such men very often work by vocation (primary school teachers, instructors in children's clubs, etc.), respectively, receive small wages, which leads to problems in their family. If a married couple with such types of thinking is created, then we can say that their relationship is ideal, but their social attitudes often interfere with their happiness: the man in the family is the breadwinner, should earn much more than the woman, and the wife should keep an eye on the house and the kids. These attitudes are not so traditional, you should at least look at the Russians - folk tales, but fairy tales are tales, and sometimes it is very difficult for a woman to come to terms with the fact that her husband earns little, and then how to be in this situation? First of all, you need to stop cutting your husband for his small income (because you’ve once married him not for money), you should start to appreciate the wonderful qualities that he has (kindness, decency, etc.), it would be ideal to do what or a common cause (very often a clear distribution of responsibilities in the company leads to success, which can positively affect your financial situation). Do not be mistaken that men of the feminine type do not suffer from the fact that the main income in the family budget is brought by his spouse, he is also affected by the stereotype of the “breadwinner in the family”, if your man is dear to you, then you must adhere to some rules of behavior : if the husband helps with the housework, he should be praised, thanked, rewarded with a kiss, and not taken for granted; you should not make your husband ask you for money for any expenses, let them lie somewhere where he can always take it; Never and under no circumstances should you compare your man with your neighbor, colleague, friend who has achieved more, it can hurt your husband very much. I do not want to say that if a woman brings the main income in a family, then a man should be sorry and in every way possible to please him, no. On his part, understanding and support are also required, because in essence women are very vulnerable, not for nothing is a woman the weaker sex. In the union, where the dominant role belongs to the man, everything is very clear and understandable, the husband brings (produces), the wife controls, such a distribution of roles is perceived as something natural, and the roots of this naturalness go deep into history, to mammoths. But the modern world with its abundant information, with beautiful faces of successful ladies on the covers of magazines leads to the fact that many women want such success for themselves, they struggle to throw themselves into the maelstrom of work, putting the family aside for later, and then for many remains in the future.

A modern woman is strong, successful, energetic, purposeful, but still she is so vulnerable, she just needs a home where a wonderful loving husband and children are waiting for her, and then it becomes completely unimportant what is happening behind the doors of the house; a cozy house, a cup of warm tea, hugging the arms of a loved one, children, quietly snoring in their beds, a feeling of absolute happiness ...
