[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get all the responses from WOHMs that make it seem like they are heroes for working more. Yes, families with SAHMs overall work less because instead of two jobs plus all the house duties, there is one job plus all the house duties. It is just much nicer for everyone if you can swing it.

And I am puzzled by all the WOHMs on here who are low status feds, or middle managers at some company or NGO, who make it seem like they have this amazing professional life  that they'd never want to give up to raise kids or take care of the home. I mean, whatever you have to tell yourself....[/quote]

People always tell themselves a lot of things to get through their days. This is the same category of delusion as some of the DCUM SAHMs who live with controlling, condescending, jerks of men who obviously see their wives as little more than glorified servants. They can talk all they want about their amazing marriage and partnership but as an outsider, the truth of their marriage is immediately obvious from their own descriptions of their lives.

The truth is that people on DCUM write a lot that's performative in the SAHM/WOHM DCUM thunderdomes. If you are actually "puzzled" by this, welcome to the internet. Ask your kids how it works. [/quote]
