Do you have any examples from canon for this?
Also, Ron does not seem threatened or annoyed by Hermione's
brains whatsoever, in the books, and there are plenty of
important jobs out there that don't require you to have an
outrageously high IQ to be successful and helpful to
society.
I don't understand this prejudice that the husband
should/would feel like a failure if the wife makes more money.
Isn't that kind of thinking a bit outdated and offensive?
