What being a housewife does, is allow you to increase your leisure time during his work hours, so that you don't mind all of the evening and weekend stress, as much.
But men get upset at the thought of their wife relaxing, while he's at work. Seems lazy, to them, and a lack of solidarity because they don't realize that she probably considers some/all of her "leisure time" together with him as "work time".
It's a miscommunication of sorts.
I know more stay at home moms. They are not getting leisure time while their husband is at work. At best they’re getting a bit of time while the kid(s) are napping but it’s usually time filled getting things done without kiddos slowing you down. Their husbands pitch in on childcare and household tasks after work too.
That is the exhausted state of all mothers of young children. That's usually only a few years, at the beginning of the marriage. And that is the length of time that almost all marriages last.
Women either need to have more children (to extend this phase and to be "allowed" to remain home), be housewives (to increase their leisure time), or the husbands need to do A LOT more childcare and housework, to make the cost/benefit analysis of continuing the marriage more attractive.
The high status men are denying the low-medium status men the ability to have housewives due to monetary debasement.
From a Darwinian perspective, the proper response would be war.
Yes, but I doubt anyone sees the connection.
A moment of silence for the brothers of previous generations who got married before they had the opportunity to see women talking online 😢
