I see nothing wrong but I’d rather not be one? Really?
It should be rephrased to: I see nothing wrong with it. That’s it
Sorry! I didn’t see the third option
Seriously. I was about to choose that opinion but then I saw "but I'd rather not be one" 🤦🏻♀️
Same!! 😂
They are EXACTLY the same as stay home moms. If men want to be house Husbands, that is up to them.
I have little place for gender stereotypes.
I respect any parent that can take care of their children
Agreed
I see anger but be careful of doing it if he thinks too many he will be on the ege of life take my advice watch him closer you will see change his life. If he is talking to him not ignoring it please talk to him.

The correlation is the marriage won’t last if the woman makes more money.
That’s an interesting concept
@wittymilf it could be regret; the woman may feel she can do better
Yes, I could see how that could happen.
A mate of mine is in that precise position, and seems to find it emasculating.
No doubt it works for some, but it's not for me.
It’s a hard role for men who aren’t used to it, or didn’t choose it.
@wittymilf He kind of fell into it. His wife earns a lot more than he ever did, and he's had a lot of false starts, career wise.
He's mentioned a number of things that have made me think he's not a natural at this, either.
Yes, my husband and I had to change rolls about 11 years ago and my husband has made a serious of disastrous financial decisions over and over again while trying to feel like he is of value as a man and can provide for his family.
Meanwhile I work myself into an early grave, while trying to stare him in the right direction without imasculating him even further by telling him straight up no.
@wittymilf That's exactly what I'm concerned about with this friend of mine, too.
He's one for making grandiose gestures. If he feels he's watching too much TV, he'll unplug it and put it in the attic, rather than just watch less TV like most people would.
It just doesn't strike me that he's got the best kind of mentality for this sort of thing.
Yup, he will end up re mortgaging the house and forex trading before you know it. Or selling money making schemes to other desperate men.
@wittymilf It would honestly not surprise me one bit.
I honestly wish I could be a stay at home dad when I have a family. Right now I'm a counselor for a afterschool program and it is my dream job because I'm so good with kids.
Generally pointless and unfulfilling, but you have to consider, I don't want kids. For other couples, it's fully fine and healthy.
Its not possible for most families to thrive on a single income, you need two in this day and age for a family
I know my boyfriend wants to stay home and that's fine with me. I am planning to marry him soon
Not planning to have kids, but I would be fine staying home while she works.
😂😂😂😂😂
@Kitty369 I like dominant women!!
And I bet she will still get everything in the divorce
I'm two tradastional for that. I believe the man should be financially head of house. I would not be with any woman who wanted to take care of me financially. It should be Jesus Christ, Church, Family in that order.
You have to be practical, I chose a profession because I love my country, and want to protect the environment, but I don't have much earning potential, but if my wife did, then it would be better for her to work, if that was OK for her.
Whatever works best for the household. I would love to be apart of one where we both stayed home.
I believe that men can be a provider and a protector through so much more than bringing home more money.
I love working and providing for others, even though I would love to be with my kids to when I have them, I want to provide for my family.
I wouldn't mind being a part of one but the only one I've seen irl, well... She's a total bitch and I'm 99% sure she is regularly cheating on him and he's no cakewalk either
This is a strange concept to me. In Norway the mother get 10 months paid parenting leave and the dad get 3 months. After that the kid is old enough to go to a kindergarten. And bough parents is working.
10 months? Where I'm from, it's only about 3 months
Yes 10 months. The dad only gets 3 months, but also get 2 weeks in the beginning after the birth.
I could totally excel in that role! I'm a single dad anyway doing both rn
