Fifteen years after graduating from Harvard College, 28 percent of the women who went on to get MBAs were stay-at-home moms. ... The common factors: being married, being female, becoming a mother. ... Notably, 42 percent of the sample group held the same graduate degree as their husbands. ... Women are less likely to work the more their husbands make.
I'll let the forum comment on the double standard of women wanting respect, but not actually getting real careers. Many marry a more successful male classmate.
This also seems to be a concern for school admissions, if they want successful alums.
