Traditional attitudes needn't mean a traditional home arrangement, but, as Connie Boyd points out, such an arrangement certainly enables one to focus time and energy. Traditional attitudes with gender roles strictly defined would, in my mind suggest a constellation of alpha male macho behaviors as well. Such a person would aggressively negotiate his salary with a somewhat reckless, no downside, attitude. Often such aggression in a corporate environment that rewards rampaging self-interest and often mistakes bravado for competence pays off. Big time.
