Does your wife out-earn you? Thank her for your erectile problems

In what might be the most depressing study ever, researchers say that some men could have erectile dysfunction because their wives earn more money. (Thanks so much, scientists, for pointing out that we're struggling at home AND at work!) The study examined 200,000 Danish couples during a nine-year period, noting that men whose wives had bigger paychecks were more likely to have a Viagra prescription. "When women outearn their husbands, it challenges the traditional social norms of the man as economic provider," the authors wrote. But, after grinding guys' self-esteem into the ground, the authors do note that "many men are proud of and attracted to wives whose income is high." [Source]
