He need a wife. No more money.

That's the issue as women have to have it all. If they give up career to support family, they get judged. They've to dress up and spend days at some office for appearances even if they don't need money.[/quote]

Judged? My multiple friends’ partner straight up told them/us they would divorce if we don’t have jobs.[/quote]

Why did they marry them? Isn’t this a conversation pre engagement or at least in pre-Cana discussions. My wife made it clear she has a good job and she loves it but when kids come if I feel the need to be a SAHM you need to support that.

Love, honor and support is what the man says on alter. Not you are a muke to do my work.

And btw working women don’t always get looked good upon. My cousin who graduated a much better college than wife and a MBA from NYU had to turn down very high paid Wall Street jobs as wife was a “career wonen” who really just had a bs low level HR jobs in surburbs. She spent her whole  salary on nanny, maid service, fancy car clothes, sumner camps and only pulled in like 150k a year.

And not just women my BIL has a job making only 60k a year and my sister passed over for promotions like 15 years straight as she is mommy tracked due to her husnand BS job. [/quote]

I think many men don’t want to be seen as a breadwinner and carry all that responsibility to provide anymore — it’s not like even hard work can assure that you will succeed, with layoffs and the vagaries of the workplace of who will advance.  They also want to be home more, be involved with the kids, be present in their lives — as a breadwinner you feel tied to having to be a “yes man” and do whatever it takes to kiss up to a job because there is no safety net.

Likewise, sure maybe wife has a BS HR Job, but she doesn’t want to be shackled at home with kids all day, cooking and cleaning the house in a constant loop. I don’t understand why if he had an offer for a Wall Street job, they could easily hire a full time nanny, and they could both work the jobs they want — she was paying for it in fact you say. I assume there is more to the story.

Saying you would divorce is pretty extreme — but at same time if a man unilaterally said they wanted to SAH that would likely trigger similar response. It needs to be a partnership, and with the instability of the modern workplace, two jobs can build a better life than one. It’s only on DCUM where every DH becomes a rainmaker if only DW watched the kids; statistically that is quite rare, so most DW staying home has real repercussions for income and stability. [/quote]
