Still funny no matter how often I hear it.
I want to start a list....
Successful woman finds happily ever after with
-homeless man
-man serving life sentence for murder
-man without skills, 50-11 children
....
These women are exceptions, not the rule. We still don't know how this is going to work for them. They've been doing well for a few years, but he could snap and walk away from being a productive citizen because the bush called him again. I do wish them the best. She has two kids with him.
Not nearly as extreme of course, but it reminds me of more "exception" stories of that are told to high earning BW. Go get garbage truck driver or long haul driver because they could earn as much, if not more because many are millionaires.
I am not saying that some aren't, but they sell these narratives of there being this large number of [black] blue-collar men when its a segment of them that do as well as high earning BW. It's not the norm. In most of those relationships, the high earning professional BW ends up being the main breadwinner.
