[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even in well paying jobs, I’ve noticed that the men with SAHMs notice the men with the same jobs but who have wives who work have less pressure and more income and are envious especially if the spouse has good enough hours they do a lot of the SAHM duties.

In dual income homes that have good HHI, most of the menial labor gets hired out. So neither person has to do it. You can throw money at things that neither wants to do and also hire help to make life really manageable. Dual incomes in higher brackets aren't coming home and cleaning or even cooking if they don't want to. [/quote]

Sure but the women are still responsible for planning and managing all outsourcing. [/quote]

Oh look, martyr mary joins the thread. Life has moved on from the 1950s trope that men do nothing but sit on the couch with their hand down their pants smoking a cigar. I don't even know families with useless men who do nothing - you need to surround yourself with better people. My brother does 90% of the planning for their kids because of their jobs. The whole but I am a woman so my life will never be anything but drudgery and woe is a you problem - many of us are out living life and doing great. [/quote]
