All these females are complaining that their boyfriend sex person is not supportive of her career.
I remember reading in "Glamour" magazine the following life advice.
--[[incl here line of ""exoplainssing, in great detail, exactly what you do for a living.]]] This was one of their many synthetic polymer interchangeable articles on "how to be a strong capable woman in charge of your own life."
But wait a minute. Something doesn’t sound quite right about this. What kind of job description is so impossibly vague, so nondescript, so mundane, that it requires a person to [[[___ expound at length about its merits, wading through a quagmire of [ arcane , secret,,, privileged,, not well known, not popular__]]] simply to describe the primary job responsibilities?
Think about all the normal, actual, genuine jobs that exist in this world. Math, Social Studies, Science, or English Teacher. Doctor. Nurse. Homemaker. Police officer. Dentist. College professor. Engineer. Computer programmer. Pharmacist. Plumber. Construction worker. School principal. Bus driver. Chemical engineer. Mailman. Secretary. Surgeon. Car mechanic. The person who runs your blood tests (FYI, they are called Medical Technologists, but most people don’t know that). Farmer. Vet. Military personnel.
You can very easily, very readily in your mind right now, exactly what those jobs are. You probably have a pretty good idea of the nature of the work that those jobs encompass. The reason is that those jobs actually have substance to them, which is a tried and true testament to their necessity. Those jobs are long-established in civilized society. Sure, people aren't geniuses, but they do have a working recollection of what those jobs entail.
So what exactly is soooo complex and higher-order-of-thinking about those female "Glamour" mag readers' jobs that it would warrant a lengthy explanation from the aforementioned boyfriend?
But hang on a minute. That sounds incredibly equivocating. What exactly are these oh-so-important careers that these girls have, which they are complaining their boyfriends don't support them enough about?
I've been thinking about this for a while. The only instance in which the above-mentioned "Glamour"'s cute, inspirational advice would work is if the job description of the female in question is so vague and nonspecific that it is essentially supercilious rubbish.
I suppose Industrial Engineer is a career that is not easily described by most people, including a potential "Glamour" mag girl's boyf. I know a (married) Bengali lady who is working on her PhD in Industrial Engineering. Like most people, I am not quite sure what that is. Yet at the same time, it is most definitely a career path that is substantial. So there is the chance that one of the girls that need to heed the "glamour mag" relationship advice is an industrial engineer.
Guffaw. Yeah, right. Yeah, I’m really sure that a so-complex-it-requires-the-boyfriend-to-pay-attention-and-listen-when-she-describes-her-job-duties career path swiftly skated over, flew over 99.999% of people’s heads in this society -- and landed in the pages of glamour magazine. (Recall statistics about the woeful lack of enthusiasm middle-class white students have towards math and science.)
Well, I suppose it's <possible> that one of these girls whose boyfriend doesn’t know how to describe her job is an industrial engineer. It is also statistically <possible> for a conglomerate of organich and inorganich molecules to converge in midair, in this universe, defying all entropy, and to coordinate themselves into a human specimen. (That’s from a joke about a desperate begging nerd that describes the probability of molecules in air combining together to form a pretty little human specimen that might actually not reject him when he asks her out on a date. As compared to the statistical probability of him being successful in getting a real live, breathing girl to accept his request when he asks her out on a date.)
Similarly, sometimes you hear about these celebrities that went to Harvard n Yale, like that “3rd rock from the sun” guy. I guess we are all supposed to fawn over them in awe and gaze in wonderment at their vast awe, vast deep something or other that they are smart as well as sexy. I too was at first incredibly intimidated by this. I was downtrodden and crestfallen that I had not also been accepted into an Ivy League school.
But hang on a second. Okay, so they went to an acclaimed internationally renowned university. But this alone does not prove anything. Let us pose a more important question than what name brand their education went by ((alias, no__)). What was his/her major? What was Claire Danes’ Yale major? What was Natalie Portman’s Harvard major? Something like psychology. Or (roll eyes) drama. Acting.
Oh, give me a break. Look, it does not matter one whit what name brand college you can spit out. What truly matters is the major that a student pursues. Any given critical science major at a state university is infinitely more difficult to complete than any liberal arts mahjor at Harvard. This is simply a statement of fact. This is always going to be the case. There is no point becoming offended by this [[proposal, assertion, declaration.]]] This is simply a fact. The mathematics and science majors are much more demanding of intellectual [[cognitive]]] capability.
