We'll agree to disagree re her encouraging others. Why write such an article otherwise? Magazine columns don't pay much. Perhaps part of it is that she's trying to assuage her guilt.
She obviously has the kind of options that most people don’t enjoy.
Clearly, yes.
Another poster said it well: that social disapproval for her ilk is called for, while new laws are not.
This woman simply swapped the devil for the witch. After the “new” wears off, this new guy will suddenly look as shiftless and unattractive as the old one did. Oh, and I think this is probably an imaginary story with some basis in fact. People do tend to pick the same types over and over, expecting different results every time - all the while in denial about the truth.
The Mojito was actually invented at Yuca in Miami Beach in the early-90s. Like a mint julep except BETTER.
I find intelligent, educated women highly attractive.
Law degrees, however, make me really nervous. I dated a lawyer once but I would not marry one. Nothing personal. Just being prudent. ;-)
These types of articles are popular in women’s fashion mags for the same reason they use size zero (sic!) models. The article, although no appearing in a fashion magazine, is basic fashion mag style.
Women, for reasons that escape men, like to read about clothing they can’t afford, look at bodies they don’t have, and learn about the lives they will never live. Men just like to look at pictures of cars and babes, or pictures of cars with babes draped over them. A much simpler formula.
>>The purpose of feminism is to destroy Western civilization. Period.<<
It depends on how you define feminism. If you go back it used to be “the doctrine of legal equality between men and women.”
Its only when its warped that feminism becomes bad.
Unfortunately its so often warped these days.
She needs an old-fashioned wife.
Some people’s best judgement is abysmal. I scorn such people, loudly and publically. The author of this piece is one of them.
Its great being a man in the corporate world, as when we are not working we're typically golfing, while the ladies I guess have time to really give a sh-t what one thinks of their significant other/social standing.

I bet you’re a real hit at the local mall.
I don’t understand the point of the story. I’ve read it over and over. She left one stay-at-home husband and married another one just like him? What’s the point to the story? Help me out here, people! Aargh! < ;o
Are any of them worried about the 6-month old baby who was abandoned by her mother?
Actually, it's pretty much the same formula. We like to look at pictures of cars we'll never be able to afford and look at pictures of women who are waaaaaay out of our league!
The women’s thing is more encompassing —it’s an entire lifestyle deal: from orgasms to window treatments. Look at the cover lines on the magazines, they’re like a dialogue inside an insane person’s head.
Doesn't mean being in a mall would stop me, if I thought it warranted, though.
“For some reason too many women think they are way better than they are.”
Men are MUCH more inclined than women to think they’re better than they are.
You are one funny guy! A refreshing change from the "American women are terrible" and "All women are beeaches" crowd.
But she is continue bothering people: her daughter by helping destroy her marriage and her ex-husband who hopefully will get a job in his field.
and picked up another bum in the same position? That might be what she was thinking, but don’t make it right.
I know what you meant, I was just kidding.
On the other hand, this is one of the reasons why people come to places like NYC — to live the kinds of lives they want to live.
