Depends. Do I have to dress up like a schoolgirl? 😉 Hahah.
But in regards to the article... that's really sad. I'd be pissed, too. Marriage should be equal. The wife shouldn't be mooching off of her husband like that. :|

Yes, that is true. Most women wouldn't admit to being a disgusting leech, I'm sure.

As long as he is comfortable with his job and doesn't mind me making over 100k more than him, I don't mind him being a teacher. As long as he is everything else I need in a partner, at least.

The article certainly described my sisters & my ex.

article is lame.
sure if you consider a useless woman a trophy wife then perhaps that applies. but generally it means a woman that will at least have and take care of your children. as for "evolution", it works out perfectly, the man wants hotter genes, and she wants successful ambitious ones that can feed her kids. as for it leading to so called toxic wife thats a load of nonsense. the 50% divorce rate isn't from trophy wives. in fact with women, even successful ones try to attract even more successful husbands whereas mostly men only care if the woman is hot. if a woman and man are evenly matched, or she is more successful, she will demand more sacrifices from him, whether its taking care of the children or moving for her job. this will strain the relationship. he will resent her dominance, and deep down she won't respect him. and thats pretty toxic right there.

Maybe someone said it and I missed it (long thread) but I think nobody's hit on the true definition/purpose of "trophy wife" or "trophy husband" for that matter.
The typical trophy wife is 20+ years younger than her mate. Her mate is typically pretty successful financially, divorced (newly) and going thru his mid-life crisis. He just got rid of the ball and chain who knows all his dirty secrets and being his same age, knows how the big game is played. And he's paying thru the ass in child support and alimony too.
The trophy wife is the brainless bimbo with the big tits and tight snatch who won't ask a lot of questions b/c she's honestly not that bright and is too happy driving her own BMW to daily shopping trips with his credit card. And the same goes for the tropy husband; albiet with different body parts.
You don't marry the trophy for LOVE. You marry the trophy for the admiration/jealously it will provoke from your social circle, and/or for the satisfaction of knowing you have this pretty little piece of arm candy that will do whatever you tell it to do. Those with the trophy spouse KNOW THIS to be true and are ready for and can afford another divorce. It's an inevitability anyway, in that situation. Sooner or later, said fine bimbo will fine some guy that's a little younger with a little more money and she's gone.
Personally, I'd NEVER have a trophy wife b/c I work too damn hard for the slightly comfortable salary that I do make. And if I ever became rich (and divorced...not that I want that) I STILL wouldn't have the trophy wife b/c I don't give anything away. I'd have 5 different trophy GIRLFRIENDS, but not wives.
And I'm done. /slams empty beer mug on bar and walks away

I like that answer! It is how a real life partner should be.

And you wonder why equality between the sexes is hard to achieve. I say there should be a more or less equal ratio of sugar daddies to sugar mummies. And I don't think they are parasites, 2 willing parties so both win.
Income differential means very little to me since I ended up with most of the chores anyway 🙁

Considering I'm a high school girl, I'm totally allowed to mention my hypothetical salary, thank you very much.

so you can see yourself marrying this girl eh? i'm assuming you've dated or she at least knows you exist, and i'm giving you the benefit of the doubt on that one.
my own opinion is that once you get involved with a girl and fall in love, whether it be with her mind or body (99% of the time it will be her body, AKA a little patch of fur called "pussy"), you'll do anything to keep it going. you'll forget all about what she has to offer in terms of personality / compatibility just to keep tappin that ass.
so throw out all the crap you think you want in a wife, it doesn't matter anyway. don't pretend to be the one man on the planet that thinks with the right head. you're a dog, you will go for the best peice of ass you can get. if her beauty is more than skin deep, bonus.. although there is something to be said for wives that are as dumb as a box of bricks. trust me, my wife is very intelligent as well as a knockout, and after 5+ years of marriage i can definitely see the benefits of marrying a bimbo 😀
