I’m weary of any “trend” fomented by modern culture.

They are inevitably negative, and harm the family.

That said, I would love to afford being a stay at home dad.

The man at home has neighbor women coming in droves to borrow a cup of sugar. There is a disruption in the force. Cougars prowl.

[Jim from C-Town]

It has more to do with the improving economy than anything else.

[The Sons of Liberty]

I retired early; my wife is still working. If you’re at home you are expected [without saying] to do the cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, laundry, etc. I don’t have to care for kids, but it is no wonder they want to get back to work.

[PeteB570]

I know two men who are “stay at home moms”.

In both cases the wife is a nurse earning very good pay for the area.

So the men do the domestic side of things. Kids are happy, no daycare and they’re a hit at school when they visit for lunch.

[Just mythoughts]

I am familiar with several stay at home fathers... I smirk when I hear them tell how much work is involved in keeping house, caring for children, grocery shopping, preparing meals and never ending laundry.

[I want the USA back]

Male and female are different. BY NATURE, the woman is more suited to care for the children, and the man is better fit to go out and endure the rigors of the world of work and give the child an example of what it means to be the wage earner.

Many men stayed with the kids because deliberate and intentional job discrimination prevented them from working, while deliberate and intentional discrimination ensured that the women got jobs.

It's one thing to stay at home in retirement after a productive career. It's quite another to choose to be Pajama Boy, either on your own or because a controlling woman demands it. The Ctrl-Left is constantly surprised at how few women are attracted to men like the ones they try to turn our children into, even commenting on how they somehow cannot resist the remaining real men.

It turns out that metrosexuals were another fad that brainless women like as a fantasy but despise in real life. It's very much like Dave Barry's take on "50 shades of gross" . . . So the plot is: They have sex, she wants to smooch, he wants to flog, there’s a bunch of talking about this, they have sex again, she again wants to smooch, he again wants to flog, there’s a bunch more talking about this, . . . and so on for several hundred word-filled pages. Finally, Anastasia decides to let Christian flog her, to see what it would be like. So he takes a belt and flogs her on the butt. Then, in the dramatic climax to the story, the moment we have been building up to, Anastasia comes to a shocking, life-changing realization, which nobody could have foreseen in a million years: Getting flogged on the butt hurts. Yes! It’s painful! Anastasia does not like it! Double crap!! . . . So she breaks up with him

Leftist women are just as surprised when they finally turn men into Pajama Boy. Even Ctrl-Left women do not like it!! Double crap!! . . . So they break up with their Pajama Boy and try a brief but satisfying fling with a real man. Until politics forces them to find another wimp and to try their hand again at emasculating yet another marginal guy into yet another completely useless Pajama Boy. I'm married and expect to stay that way. Even if something happened though, I would never go near a leftist woman. I like real, normal women too much to put up with the politicized nonsense.

[dgbrown]

I want to find a woman that wants a stay at home but has no children.

[Tanniker Smith]

Is it just me or does that read like an "Onion" headline?

Even if it's not the Onion.

Dropping birthrate is another reason for decline at stay-at-home parents overall. Not need to stay once the kids are in school, and millennials aren't having as many kids (or even getting into relationships).

[Mister Da]

Perhaps because Trump’s economy is hiring again.

[BeauBo]

The reality of men staying home and women working is not what was sold.

Non-working men lose respect from themselves, their women, and everyone else.

They become less attractive to women.
