I think this was a slur but +1. solidly evangelical, conservative, Catholic or Mormon increases the odds dramatically. [/quote]

This was my experience. I married one of these (not fundamentalist, just conservative Christian from the Midwest), and was a little surprised that he actually meant it when he said he thought our children would be better off with me home, at least until they went to preschool. I fully expected him to have a change of heart once we started having kids, but that's just his value system. But I ended up going back part-time after both maternity leaves anyway, and he was perfectly fine with it because he understood it was what I wanted to do.

OP, if being a SAHM is really a goal, I think the key is to find someone who views marriage as a complete partnership, and is a little traditional but also willing to compromise in case things don't go as planned. You don't want someone who would REQUIRE you to stay at home.[/quote]
