[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am trad wife and my husband is the complete opposite of red pill. We are both pretty liberal. He doesn’t demand that I am a housewife. It was a decision we made together. I wanted it and he was ok with that. The traditional “gender roles” come naturally to us and we just go with that. It works for us without the need to follow some script or ideology. [/quote] That’s awesome, but, how does that work for the average person financially? You either have to have family money, or have one partner be able to earn a lot of money to save and invest very early on to make that happen. And yes I’m aware of the “two income trap” that is largely attributed to childcare costs, but in terms of the modern (post-2008 recession) economy, even high-paying white collar jobs are not stable anymore. Good Lord, you hear of software engineers selling their possessions and becoming Uber drivers. It just seems like relying on a single earner is very risky. It may work for you out of a series of fortunate events or perfectly-timed good decisions but I don’t see how that can work for an average American family. [/quote]
