Here's my advice to men - go to school, study hard, work hard, get ahead. As a woman, it's what I had to do. No one handed me anything, and no one is going to hand you anything either. You'll have to succeed or fail on your own merits like everyone else.

I don't follow. How is it parity for women or preferential treatment for men if women are much less willing to marry a man based on his status as not employed?

The point is that there's a whole movement of white men bitching and whining about how they are so put upon these days when in reality, they are just waking up to the realization that they will now have to get an education, a job and a mate based on their own merits and that women are not going to fall at their feet because they have no better options. We have all the options we want now, and we don't have to settle for you. Deal with it.

I come from a long line of white men, am surrounded by white men, and know dozens and dozens of white men and I've never heard of this movement, nor heard of them bitch about how they are put upon. Sounds like a bunch of nonsense to me.

The internet is full of these losers and their apologists.

Which is all well and fine because we both work and contribute and feel equal in our relationship, but this is why we don't have kids yet. I don't want to feel lesser because I'd have to take 12 weeks unpaid leave for a baby and he doesn't have to. It seems unfair, like I'm valued less

Your poor (future) child.

You both may want to hold off on having children. There are way too many red flags with your husband.

I would never marry a man that had his type of attitude.

Really after the youngest is in K .. If your H says he fully supports you not having a job all day long and you believe it... you are living a lie.

And he would never marry somebody who lives off the dole.

Total double standard. How would you respond if your husband wanted to be a SAHD? You'd think he was a loser, wouldn't you?

Feminism isn't about women being better than men. It's about parity for the genders.

When you're born into wealth you don't have to worry about that.

apparently not as important to as many men as women. That was the statistics.

but then again most stay at home spouses are women.

women are different than men and one of the differences is they still want someone to take care of them.

Your racism doesn't even make sense. White men tend to be more educated and are more likely to be working than most other demographics. If you're gonna hate people for their race and gender, at least get your racist stereotypes straight.

The article should be no surprise to anyone.

Women tend to be inflexible when it comes to a man's status and career. Men are more inflexible about physical health and youth.

why is this?

[Anonymous]

Because people are attracted to that which leads to successful reproduction.

Traditionally, the most successful outcome results from the pairing of a young, healthy woman with a male who is committed and capable of providing resources.

Socials mores may have changed recently, but our biology has been honed over millions of years and had not changed.

You know, you don't have to take 12 weeks unpaid leave, you can head to the office straight from the hospital and dump your newborn on a nanny. This way you won't feel any 'lesser'.
