[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The last generation of SAHMs adjusting to a new world of “mixed” DILs. They don’t get why both SAHMs and WOHMs these days aren’t automatically taking on emotional labor, bulk of chores, etc.

Their moms, grandmothers and peers all managed most of the household and emotional labor. They were also taught to be nice and deferential and “feminine.” They don’t always adjust.

+1. And they are so resentful...turns out men ARE capable of doing household chores, feeling secure with an equal-partner wife (whether she works outside the home or not), sending birthday cards, etc. They got the last generation of men who was expected to do NONE of those things, and they feel really bitter about it. They try to make today's women feel guilty about expecting husbands to do chores, "leaving their babies" to go to work, etc. [/quote]

Yes! Omg my mom was convinced my dad couldn’t change a diaper. I walked him through it and he’s now changed dozens. He smirks at my mom as he does it. He also loves to babysit my kids when my mom and I run errands. My mom is so nervous and doesn’t trust him. She never gave him a chance to be an equal partner. [/quote]
