Should women prioritise their careers?

[Babygirl_S]

Yes

No

[molonski2]

100% they should , absolutely unquestionable , I have two daughters and that is certainly what I taught them , I always worked hard in multiple roles , and it was this work that allowed me to create passive income and enjoy the life that I do today , one of my daughters career has taken her to Vietnam and Denmark ( she now lives in Denmark ) , all this my working and exploring options for expansion.

I'd encourage ALL women to always prioritise your career options , and to invest as early as possible , be self sufficient , not dependent on some guy.

[ImalwaysrightOK]

Why do guys who are married and have daughters always sound like another woman ♀️

[molonski2]

@ImalwaysrightOK
I have no idea about any of that , just a very truthful answer.

[NathanDavis]

over what, though?

[Babygirl_S]

Getting married soon.

[NathanDavis]

well.. there would be a few things to consider

is she single? has she just started working? does she already have a good position? is she working on her own practice or business? is she working for a company? does she already have a husband to be?

what about him and his plans and ideas, his preferences and input in this situation?

[kylee2437]

Absolutely. There is no guarantee of a male providing anything for you and honestly by generation it’s getting worse of what men even bring to the table. Some don’t even know how to change their own car oil. Scary times

[patrick994]

Well nowadays there is equality of the sexes, right? There is no obligation on us men to provide for you.

[kylee2437]

@patrick994 hunny I never said there was an obligation , there’s some men that will though. Just remember that.

[molonski2]

Well said.

[JacobJordan]

If they want to reduce their chances of getting married absolutely. Honestly a personal choice but least from my end I would never even consider marrying a career woman. They very rarely are feminine and masculine women are not attractive in the slightest. I personally would advise people to take some time for introspection and then open yourself to love and everything that comes with. Do what you gotta do to pay your bills get married and enjoy life sooner rather than later. Get out of all jobs that have some rich boss and start working for yourself deprive the labour market of more workers as soon as possible

[Babygirl_S]

I don't understand why in my country a woman has to be career-oriented. Doctors wants doctors, engineers want engineers and so on. It is a prerequisite for ensuring that someone good enough marries you.

[JacobJordan]

A woman doesn't have to be. And reality of marriage is majority of men want a feminine kind and caring woman. They don't want a bossy, stubborn, masculine career woman. Obviously some guys might. But not most

[Babygirl_S]

They want a feminine woman with a nice career in this part of the world. It is nearly impossible for a regular girl to marry someone who is a surgeon.

[JacobJordan]

Depends where you are. If you in the states surgeons will marry the pizza girl if she is feminine and treats him well.

Women should prioritize whatever matters most to them. If they don't have kids, then who cares if they put their job before everything else? If they do have kids, then hopefully they are making sure someone is prioritizing the children so they are well cared for. It doesn't have to be the mom if they have someone else who can do it well.

I have a friend who's a workaholic, and her family took turns raising all the kids. Her parents would have them 2 days, her sister 2 days, and she and her husband would take the family's kids for 2 days. Then, they just had one day to cover by having different days off. She didn't have to sacrifice her multiple degrees or her career.

[Joshydavid25]

I don't think that's for us to answer.. It depends on what the woman wants.. If she strongly prefers family, then prioritizing a career is probably not the way to go, but if she wants to work and get to the highest stat possible... Then sure go for it. The whole point if devoting yourself to work was to be able to accomplish something for the greater good, whether it was to provide for your family, or come up with something that betters society.. But now we treat "careers" like our purpose, when at the end of the day it's just a job..

[Miristheiss]

No. Over their families? No.

Maybe 10-15% of women should just devote their lives to a career and nothing else.

The vast majority should prioritize kids, their family, their husbands and not work or take off when the kids are little and go back to work when they are in school.

[natured]

Why not? I do prioritise my career, because it's the only thing that will not LEAVE my side no matter what ... I don't think you should be a workaholic but I think every woman should be independent.

[Dinklex3]

If they want.

Everyone is different and has different priorities and goals in life.

I personally, am. Others haven’t and that’s okay.

[Apple1996]

If they want to but personally I think that's a waste of living. At the end of my life ill be happier knowing that I made family my main priority. Having money and a career ain't shit

[patrick994]

I think so, first of all as a matter of personal self-esteem, then secondly, because you have no guarantee that the man is willing to provide for you.

[DarkWinterNights]

You should pick whatever you are motivated to do. Just know, you can’t have it all. And a choice for one usually means the other will slip from your grasp.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Not to the exclusion of all else. That makes you very one dimensional and those women are boring.

[Saiesh30]

Yes ofc. Be educated and self dependent that you don't have to worry about finances if such a situation arises where you're by yourself.

[MemeSupreme]

if she got kids then no BUT only if she is able to not prioritize it

[Nikki1989]

Of course. With the cost of living and everything else, you would have to be a fool not to do that.

[LazerBean]

If they aren't married, or if their husband has a body count of more than 2, yes.

[nastyb]

Maybe if men were better providers, women wouldn't need to have careers. Your wife will only need to work if you cannot provide.

[Pohjolan]

Its not wrong to prioritise your offspring. Both choices come with pros and cons.

[Joker_]

yes, in fact that should be the number 1 priority of their lives

[4ngelic]

yea unless you want to be broke & dependent

[ThebestIndian]

Of course, they should
