When we moved here, I was wfh, and so the only people I met were through my kids' school.

- a man at the PTA meeting?! That will go over well.

OP here. Would it be odd? I feel as if other moms might think I have nefarious reasons for joining. I can't imagine a lot of other moms would like a 20-30 year old male joining the PTA....

I was on a PTA once that had a dad. He was a SAHD (not WFH) with a pediatrician wife. No one thought twice about him — we treated him like we treated the rest. I think he enjoyed being involved.

I would get a part time job for fun. Something that pays little as you don't need the money but something that you've always wanted to try.

Or do work that is seasonal or on call or that you can pick and choose as you want--substitute teacher, high school sports coach, on-site worker at events, retail at the holidays, summer camp manager.

Do you have a teachable skill? Could you teach a class of some sort?

Do you have kids? My answer depends on this!

If OP has so much money and he and his spouse enjoy traveling so much that having a dog isn't feasible, it is incomprehensible why his spouse is working so hard (for what? prestige?) If they have children, the answer is super easy, just spend your free time nurturing their interests. You'll meet all sorts of parents and grandparents who are interesting and there is no reason why you need a friend group that is close in age. If no children are involved, the answer is also easy, start a new business, start a non-profit, produce a movie or fund a passion project, anything.

My husband is kind of like OP- my husband loves animals so he leases a horse, hangs out with our dog. He also plays tennis with friends. A lot of his friends telework and make time during the day.

Seriously, OP is completely lacking in imagination.

He should get addicted to plastic surgery. Maybe his wife will find him attractive then. LOL.

You are an extrovert so you need to get an in person job to meet your socialization needs and free up your remote gig for someone who really needs it and/or doesn't mind working alone.

I think that a dad joining the PTA at his own kids’ school would be much less suspicious than a man who is not a dad, or whose kids don’t attend the school.

It’s really hard to advise without knowing if you are a parent, and if you are a parent if you are the primary caregiver during be day.

I don’t think it would be weird if you state clearly that your are a wfh dad who wants to be involved in community/PTA.

Do you have kids or not?

So weird to be a young man and on a parenting website.

What is DB? Is that dead bedroom?

I hope you’re joking! At the last two DCPS schools my kids attended a dad was either the head of the PTA or the VP.

Although it’s mostly mom’s, a several dads also participate.

Even if OP is a bored troll, with or without kids, married or not, not having sex or addicted to porn...it remains an interesting thought exercise.

So, what will we all do when AI takes away all our jobs in 3 years and we don't have any way to make a living. How do we remain consumers without earning money to buy stuff?

What is universal high income is a reality and now we all are sitting at home, not having to work, not having to cook, not having to do chores, not having to do childcare? What will we do? Just take care of the elderly? Or die out of boredom like the last neanderthal human?

Learn to raise sheep, shear and card the wool, make yarn and knit.

Learn to grow food.

Learn to build houses.

Learn to compost your poop and make manure.

Just doing basic things.

Oh, also...no need to learn to serve the billionaires. The robots will be wiping their drool and leaky butts.
