When one man asks another man what he does, the man that asked that question answers by saying what they do for a living, their job, or profession, 93% of the time.  It seems that experts, whoever they are, say that men see them selves as athe bread winner or provider and what they do for a living is of that much importance to them!  Now many women are also the provider as well, but this is about men so forgive me and let me continue!<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The author of the study book suggested that maybe we should consider what are the most important things we do and alter our answer to reflect that.
