[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Millennial men expect their millennial wives to have solid careers and to keep working after kids, without skipping a beat.  The women are saying no thanks to that particular type of parenthood, because [b]they know their husbands aren't going to take on 50% of domestic labor and childcare.[/b]  And also because, outside of the DCUM bubble, most women aren't all that career-driven, especially after kids.  They just aren't.  If SAHM was a realistic option for more millennial women, we'd see more of them saying yes to parenthood.  [/quote]

So are millennial men resorting back to 1950s men? I'm young Gen X (late 40s) and the men I know are really, really involved fathers.[/quote]

No, because they also don’t even want to provide.[/quote]

+1 At least 1950s men had no expectations that their wives would work FT on top of doing all the cooking, cleaning, and childcare.  Millennial men think women who want to stay home raising kids are lazy gold diggers. [/quote]
