Men aren't looking for a meal ticket from a woman, but instead for a sexy little chica to look after them, clean the house, and take care of their babies. I actually don't understand why so many men marry college graduates, then relegate them to housewife status. Seems like a waste to me.
Actually many men are looking for an equal partner is all aspects, including being able to bring in a sizable income. That's why so many Drs marry other Drs. The days of the 'sexy little chica' are long gone. But you can keep your delusions by all means
If you had asked me this question twenty years ago, I'd probably say yes. However at this point in my life, no way. She has to bring something to the table for me to be interested. I'm not into collecting tons of material goods, but I do love to travel a lot. I have no kids and do not want any, and I also don't subscribe to this "man is the provider" mentality. Of course as always, this is just MY personal preference and others can do whatever works for them.
If men care so much about a woman's career... then again, I say, why so many 'professional' women getting married, getting pregnant, and then leaving the workforce?
Women aren't valued as providers, or even co-providers, by the vast majority of men. I venture to say most men wouldn't even have it enter their minds to 'judge' the line of work of a woman they're interested in (provided she's not a sex worker, of course). It's just not part of the equation.

You're obviously not in any professional field, because what you're telling us simply isn't true.

I would rather marry a kind affectionate beautiful woman that never went to college then a woman making 6 figures that was a ball buster. While a professionally successful woman that is also kind, affectionate, and beautiful is preferred to a woman without a college education it is far down the list to me personally. The more successful a man is, the less he cares how successful she is.
Intelligence and being classy is still important and not always tied to level of professional success, in many cases they do correlate to each other.

Actually the more successful a man is the more likely he'll partner with a woman with means of her own. It's called wealth building and it's a smart thing to do. And where do you get this ridiculous notion that successful women are ball busters? Do you not know any?

Not really, in fact it's the opposite these days. Highly educated and high income men are more likely to marry someone similar. Feel free to read up on assortative mating.
I live in a pretty nice area - and it's pretty much a mixed bag. There are lots of stay at home moms, there are lots of dual income households, I know a couple of stay at home dads. Most people seem pretty content with their lot. I will say that when I was younger and working at the front desk of a gym during the evenings so that I could audition during the day, I got hit on all the time by lots of guys from my coworkers to wealthy clients. So my menial job didn't seem to matter a whole lot.
