    Oh god.  I guess I am not a princess because I am marrying a poor boy and I'm pretty well off.

    She can't be a real reporter; she is not a good writer. I do know people that feel that way though, although it's most men that think a woman should stay home and cook and clean and they can "bring home the bacon".

    That's not the lifestyle I want.

    I am. Obviously.

    I have a hard time seeing how someone with writing skills (or a lack of) gets hired as a staff reporter. Or any sort of job which requires writing. And that's not even getting into the ridiculous ideas being pushed across.

    You know what? I have a sinking feeling that's real. She looks super young, so I'm guessing this is a high school or college newspaper article.

    OR...it could be a clever satire and we are wrong. But what are the odds of any of us being wrong?

    What happened to MRS degrees? That you go to a good school in order to find a guy that'll make a lot of money and then not use your actual degree afterwards.

    I certainly knew people whose entire goal at university was to find a man and not get an education.

    I'm hoping that was a joke. In high school, our April newspaper was entirely fictional, as an April Fools joke. I could see something like that going in.

    Hazel - One time in college, I had some guy accuse me of being there for an MRS degree. Really? I guess it was because I was a non-rich kid at a school full of rich kids, but he was a 5th year junior skating by on a scholarship I have no idea how he qualified for. I'm sure I make more money than him.

    Leia - I can't believe someone would accuse anyone of that. I just went to school with people who could explain their entire wedding and marriage timeline to you but ask them what they were doing with their degree...nothing. It so confused me at the time.

    My God that was tough to get through...that has to be one of the worst articles I have ever read based purely on the fact that there didn't seem to be one clearly stated thought in the whole thing.  I did out of it that I need to work harder at being a princess.  I wasted 4 1/2 years on college so I better not waste any more working! 

    This has to be either a joke or a HS newspaper bit..she looks super young and like she'll be knocked up at 19 waiting on her loser baby daddy to take of her princess azz.

    that article gave me a great deal of "disstress"

    I'm praying to every god under the sun that it's not real...but I'm scared it is. There are way too many people who would love nothing more than to take society back to 1950's...or earlier.
