I think some of what you're saying is baseless and quite offensive, very unlike you usually Carlos.
It should'nt matter if a woman earns more then a man.......I'd say in this day and age it's quite common.....though I have read reports, that in some macho cultures, women who are highly qualified or high earners can find it difficult to get a man, because the men in these societies would take it as an affront to their masculinity if their wife was perceived to be superior to them in any way.

However, I don't think it's offensive to state that most men here, who actually love the women they are with, would have serious issues with their better halves earning money by having sex with other men, irrespective of which of them was earning more. I simply don't believe it's in most of our natures to share our nearest and dearest in this way. Maybe for those who are fine with open relationships or swinging, but I think for most, it would make them feel like they were bad providers or demoralise them.

In theory the thought about having a wild sexual relationship with somebody who is open minded and adventurous sounds great, but that's probably all it would be....a sexual relationship. What above love, commitment, trust?

The last thing you want your partner to be thinking about when you are making passionate love to her, is how much she could be making if it was somebody else in her bed instead of you. And in the man's case.......it's easy enough to forgive or tell yourself what happened before you met does not matter......but while you are in the relationship, can you ever forget?
