Would you prefer a housewife or a working wife to be your life partner?

I never wanted kids and, therefore, had no need for someone to take care of them.
So I'd take a working wife.

All my girlfriends had jobs and supported themselves. They had pluck and ambition. I like that in a woman.

My wife supported herself nicely before we met and she still works part time. She's self employed. The extra income helps.
We share the housework and gardening. We are a team.

[MoonFace2]

That sounds perfect 😊

[Lliam]

It gets her out of the house so that she doesn't feel confined.

Is that the kind of life you would prefer?

[MoonFace2]

Yes, if I was well enough to work

[superchan2011]

I don't really care if she's a housewife or a working wife. I want a loyal wife.

[MoonFace2]

Fair enough 😊

[superchan2011]

Yup. That's most important. If she's loyal and loving then she can stay home or work if she wants. I don't mind taking on the financial weight

[AI Opinion]

As a relationship coach here on Girls Ask Guys, my take is that it truly depends on personal preference and compatibility, darling. What's important is mutual understanding and respect in a relationship. Whether your partner is a housewife or a working wife, the key is to support each other’s goals and share responsibilities in a way that feels right for both of you. Falling in love with who she is, her aspirations, and how you both vibe together is what really counts. ❤️🥰

I'd say somewhere in the middle. I couldnt imagine just stayin home all day, and only getting a few hours a day with a lifelong partner or kid. So us both workin flexible/part-time, so we can spend plenty of time together. as far as household stuff, we'll both have our own roles.

Preference is she be a housewife. She doesn't have to work. She can work if she wants but not a necessity like a life and death situation lol.

I can provide and it's not wrong to rely on your spouse. She can provide thinks like caring for the house in my absence

[Berethor]

An traditional housewife is nice but I am not rich so I don't know it I can really afford that.

Unless she's home taking care of our kids- working wife. I don't want to be with a bum. After she's given me kids she can stay home when the kids are grown because kids need their mom so taking care of her is the same thing as taking care of my kid.

[slatyb]

A working wife. We would have more money and more to talk about.

[ChicoFromThe305]

Housewife only for one reason, if we decide to have children, I don't think babysitters 24/7 is healthy but I might be wrong

[jack1924]

It depends, maybe if she prefers to take care of the kids until they can depend on themselves, then she can work or do whatever she wants, but I want her to be independent without me

[NathanDavis]

the one that can do both

[MoonFace2]

So, a part time working wife and part time housewife?

[NathanDavis]

I can do it both, full time...

and by that I mean... I can work a full time job, and I can still keep up with a full house entirely, by myself...

it's not really that difficult, lol

[MoonFace2]

It’s difficult for those of us who can’t work. What’s easy for one person isn’t easy for everyone.

[MoonFace2]

But I think I see what you’re getting at. You’d like a corporate wife 😊

[NathanDavis]

I like a capable person... one that would not be helpless without me

[MoonFace2]

There’s nothing wrong with preferring corporate women. I think there’s a difference between being helpless and being a housewife, but that’s just my opinion. We all have our own opinions and all are equally valid 😊

[MoonFace2]

Anyway, unless a man makes really good money, a woman can’t so easily be a housewife these days. I’d say.

[NathanDavis]

what I am saying is... it is difficult for me to believe that a woman can grown up without not knowing how to take care of a place

even if she is a "corporate woman" she still has a house, which she should keep in shape... lol

and, most women I know... are capable of both, and more

[MoonFace2]

Fair enough 😊. I’m not, though, so there would be others. I’d have to be the person taking care of the house, because I can only cope with part time work and was advised by Centrelink not to even do that.

[MoonFace2]

But I’m not asking specifically about myself. 😊

[UnusualWeirdo]

I don't care as long as she's happy.

[Anonymous]

I prefer money for myself.

[Agape93]

Working wife.
