Only heard the first few minutes today but just saw a couple of pissed off posts on the Facebook page. I guess Tay said it's gross for a woman to be the main earner in a couple? Oy.

I'm at work and only 1/2 listening, but I think she's talking about both people pulling their weight. A relathionship won't work if one is making all the money, and the other floats along (doesn't look after kids, doesn't look after the house, etc). 

Rewinding to re-listen!

ETA ~ I think that person misunderstood something, I didn't hear anything close to what they said. She said she would totally be ok if she were the bread winner, and her husband supported her emotionally, gave good business advice. etc. 

***The FB Post***
You finally lost me, Taylor. A situation with a woman as the breadwinner is gross? Is this 1955 or 2015???

It is Taylor's job to have opinions and talk about relationships. It's Cosmo Radio. An entire magazine  and show based upon primarily.... relationships. 

She is required to fill up 3 hours a day with conversation. She is encouraged to have strong opinions to start dialogue. She says radical things to get phone calls coming in to disagree with her.

I listened last night just because I was curious about those posts and that convo and yeah, she definitely said it's gross for a woman to be the breadwinner. For all the talk about how divorce has changed her prescpective, that's an awfully dumb thing to say.

Was that in the first hour? I didn't listen to that. 

She seemed pretty strongly in favour of it the other way later in the show?
 

2nd hour I think? I listened a little after and then turned it off. She played the audio from the RHOC convo where Vicki freaked out about money in the jewlery store.

it was 3rd hour. I didn't find it offensive.

I actually do, because the damn app crashed and had to search for it, around the 17 minute mark? She says like the thought of a women being the breadwinner and a man spending her money is gross. I just Invision a business women and a slob man playing video games at home. She then goes on to say stuff about being a stay at home mom and actually caring for a child is ok. But just a stay at home wife is insane.

Thank you!!!

@ 2:23 She says if she was the bread winner she would be ok with her husband if he was helping by giving her good advice, sort of like a manager. 

I give up, I totally never heard her say that and am tired of listening for it lol

I went back and listened to the last hour of that show and I heard it! Was at 2 hours and 3ish minutes. She was talking about Vicki (housewife) and her interview. Then Tay said these exact words "This is a huge double standard that I have, I feel like when the woman's bringing home the bacon and the guy's out spending it, YUCK. Yuucky yuck yuck. But when a woman's doing it, I don't have a problem with it." Sam: "It's just as gross." Tay: "Nope, for some reason it just isn't for me. don't know why." Then she went on to says something like "woman are more maternal..." What does that have to do with anything?! I usually don't get too worked up about this kind of stuff because to each their own... but... that statement was ridiculous. 

Yeah, this is what I was talking about. They both said that it's weird for men to be maternal and then she told a story about her friend who makes more money than her husband so he's going to stay home with the kids. Which seemed like a weird thing to share after saying it's gross.

Exactly! Because she said she thought that dynamic is "cool." No consistancy. 

 
Just like her glaringly obvious inconsistency about paternity leave..... She went on a long ass rant about it because, "why do men need to be home anyway." and now suddenly "Sirius is such a progressive company. Paternity leave is amazing."

I haven't listened to today's show, but that lip smacking and throat clearing lately...I can't even.

AndI didn't make her obsessed with money. No one did that except herself. Someone on here said they found it difficult to be friends with people outside of their socioeconomic bracket and I thought that was very honest and introspective. Pergaps that is something Tay needs to be honest with herself about too if it effects her so greatly and we all see it goes.  Having said that I thought her friend from college L, that she was out the shower for was the one getting married.

Her college friend is also getting married, but this morning she was talking about Jordan and Andi. I'm not saying at all that Andi made her obsessed with money. I'm saying that by surrounding herself with people who live so stratospherically above her means that she's never going to feel like what she has is enough. That's just my opinion of course.

 
Agreed.  However, they are friends...? BUT she doesn't even know how old she is!?!???!
She's your friend and you don't know her age.  That my friends is very telling.  I guess we are back to the social climbing T. ...

Husband and the box - that is a good point! It is hard to say no all the time because you can't afford something, especially if she has some settlement money in the bank.
