Wow, throw in laundry and go run on the treadmill for an hour. Throw in dryer and stream Netflix vids.

Why would you want a stressful professional job that kills you and makes you die early?

Gen Z women have figure out that the working world is overrated and for suckers.

It kills your brain cells, and dealing with children all day, even your own, can wear on you. Most people, women and men, don't absolutely love being with kids all day.

I've done it all - wohm, wfh, PT, FT, sahm. Yes, the stress went down when I became a sahm, but I also found my brain was atrophying. PT was the best of both worlds. However, once the kids hit MS, and they don't need you as much, you get bored. One can only do so much laundry and cleaning.

My sister is a care taker. Always has been. She desperately wanted to be a sahm with a small house. Didn't work that way for her. She divorced her deadbeat husband and became a single mom who had to work, starting from scratch because she had given up her career when she married her deadbeat husband.

Hyperbolic nonsense. My grandmother was one of the smartest persons I've ever met. She was stay at home wife. She read the news paper everyday and did crossword puzzles. She read books. She read national geographic. She'd meet up with local wives for games of bridge.

Working as a stay at home wife kills your brain cells only if you choose poorly, like virtually everything else in life. Dealing with kids is nothing compared to a soul sucking corporate job with stress levels through the roof. It literally kills you and makes you die early from heart attacks and stroke.

No, “trad wife” isn’t a trend outside of religious extremist groups.

It's still standard that women do more around the house than men do, but the solution isn't for women to stop working, it's for men to start working (around the house). Some men are doing their part, but they aren't in the majority. The alleged male loneliness epidemic won't go away until these men are willing to put in the same amount of work that women put in.

Even as their contributions to family incomes have grown in recent years, women in opposite-sex marriages are still doing more housework and caregiving than men, a report from the Pew Research Center has found.

Last year, 29% of marriages were "egalitarian," with husbands and wives each contributing roughly half of the couple's combined earnings.

But in "egalitarian marriages," wives are still spending more than double the amount of time on housework than their husbands (4.6 hours per week for women vs. 1.9 hours per week for men), and almost two hours more per week on caregiving, including tending to children.

The solution is for men to do more, not for women to lose their agency.
