[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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. [/quote] Being the sole breadwinner is quite stressful. Makes sense.[/quote] But it's much easier to advance at work and much less stressful if you never have to worry about the kids or anything at the house. You go further than the guy who has to take the day off for sick kids or leave MWF at 5:30pm to do daycare pickup [/quote] Men don't do any of that shit anyways. Let's stop pretending that the SAHM is the "Reason" for a mans success. That's just imaginary flattery to content yourself for sitting at home all day. Do you think working moms don't pick up their kids? [/quote] It really is. It’s amazing what a person can accomplish when they don’t need to worry about anything except work. I’m not even talking about raising kids. I’m talking about everything in the hierarchy of needs, from keeping a roof over your head to having clean clothes on your back to having healthy food in your belly to nurturing all of your social relationships. Just complete freedom from anything that might interrupt your genius. Statistics show that when men get married, their income goes up. When women get married, their income goes down. Mental labor is zero sum. [/quote] So you married a man who didn't want to be a father or be a husband. You married a worker bee. "My dad makes so much money! I haven't seen him since 2018, but he's great!" [/quote]
