This made me feel slightly nauseated, and I'm not sure why.

  Because it's incredibly misogynistic.

    No it's not. It's describing a very specific situation. She looks---really looks---at her husband and realizes that outside of his consumer marketing instincts and technical wizardry and (increasingly infrequent) write-ups in TechCrunch and VentureBeat and his nouveau confidence, he's quite boring. He was one of the guys she scrunched her nose at in high school. She married someone she wasn't particularly interested in for what his money could buy her, and came to realize he is boring. The story doesn't make generalizations about all women.
