That&#039;s not how their mind works.  Their reasoning goes as follows:

If the woman is gainfully employed (or has her own business), then she is independent, and so I cannot treat her however I like because if she doesn&#039;t like it, she will leave (or kick me out if the property is hers).

If the woman never earned a cent but depends on me for her subsistence, then she won&#039;t dare betray me, since if I kick her out, she&#039;s doomed.  And she won&#039;t leave, since she literally can&#039;t afford it.

That, I believe, is the mentality of men who feel threatened by the prospect of having their wives gainfully employed and independent.]]></description>

And what about women bloggers? They&#039;re the scourge of Maltese families and should be banished to Mantua or wherever they&#039;re sending them these days. I&#039;m seriously considering sending The Times a letter about how I know for a fact the earth is flat. Just to test the system.]]></description>
