Literally slept through HS and still graduated top 10%. Went to TU in Tulsa for a bachelors in mechanical engineering. Got married, had two kids, worked part time, went to school full time and still finished my degree in 4 years.
Unfortunately, I fell for the lie that smart females need to get a degree in STEM, because, well that’s what smart women do. While going to school and even in my short-lived career as an engineer, most women I ran into were hateful, cold, and sluts. They would display all the characteristics deemed to be toxic masculinity to the other sex. I realized that no matter my test scores, education or career advancement, I was happier being home with my husband and kids.
Thank you! I just hope more women realize that being a successful businesswoman will not make you feel complete. Only Jesus will and He has made the ideal family structure pretty straightforward lol
Similar situation here. When I was younger I just wanted a family and kids. My Mom said that successful men want wives who are also intelligent, so I went to college and on to a master's degree. Math degree was easy, but I couldn't be happier than I am as a stay at home Mom now.
GOOD FOR YOU! Similar boat here. Very irritating to be told you're "wasting" your intelligence raising the next generation to not be brainwashed robots! History will prove us right.
