e says her husband’s well-paying job has come at an incredibly sad cost — her own career. “My husband earns well, not loads, but realistically it’s always going to be more than me. It naturally means my career has had to take a back seat while I’m at home with the kids,” she explained.
“But we’ve got no additional support, and someone does need to do the child-related things. This lands on me.” Currently, the mother works part-time, but she isn’t satisfied. “Sometimes I wish I had the luxury of working more,” she said. “I miss my job and independence.” Taking to a moms’ forum, she sought closure. However, responses were divided.
“Could I insist he quit his job? I’m not sure I could. A reluctant and resentful stay-at-home dad or part-time one? Hardly a good idea,” she said. The family can’t afford a nanny, they can’t move to find better childcare options, and the mother can’t work from home.

So, are you celibate and have nothing to do with women?
I think you’re projecting your own personal disappointment onto other men - many of whom on this forum are happily married and testify to that all the time.
You’re also assuming that all ‘modern women’ are like the one in this (very questionable) story.
I’m sorry your own marriage and divorce was so unhappy. But the way you think seems to have insured that you are the one who has suffered from it the most.
She’s an idiot and easily replaceable.
Selfish, entitled jerk.
Staying at home was a privilege as far as I was concerned.
Sounds to me like they shouldn’t have gotten married in the first place.
...sounds like grounds for divorce!
Read the Bible, Fuzz. God created, from Adam’s rib, Eve, to be Adam’s helpmate. Women are designed by God to bear and nurture children. One is unwise to oppose God’s design.
‘ Read the Bible, Fuzz.’
I have. Makes no sense.
‘God created, from Adam’s rib, Eve, to be Adam’s helpmate.’
Fantasy. Written by insecure incels from stories by illiterate ancestors.
‘Women are designed by God to bear and nurture children. ‘
That’s always the justification’
‘One is unwise to oppose God’s design.’
Oh no!
I’ll pray for you, Fuzz. You can participate by reading the Bible again...I recommend the English Standard Version (ESV), for its clarity in modern English...and I pray you will ask God to reveal Himself to you through His Word as you sincerely give it an honest go. You can do it, not in your own strength, but in His.
.....” always going to be more than me. “
“me”....💊

I pray you find the true path, through Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent who created the world and controlled the wind and rain, and, well everything.
I pray you sacrifice animals, particularly those you care for, to appease him in the hopes he reveals himself to you.
You can do it.

Sorry; I don’t speak ‘emoji’.
Husband provides and she resents it…
= Eve
My list of women who prove my point would start with Margaret Thatcher, Golda Meir, and go on and on.
I’ll raise you Biden, for MEN who have matured disappointingly. (Of course, he wasn’t much good to start with...)
“There are two great tragedies in life: One is not getting what you want. The other is getting it.”
-Oscar Wilde
“What do YOU want?”
-Mr. Morden, Babylon-5 (Most of the characters who told him what they wanted, didn’t like it when they got it ...)
As for Pelosi ... and Biden ... and Clinton (either one) ... and Schumer ... and Harris ... and ...
They were never any good to begin with.
Except for Harris. Willie found her ... "useful".
I imagine President Trump will retire before he begins to ‘decline’, too.
I think he’s got another good term ahead of him - at the least.
Your assumptions are just that. You know nothing about me. Thats your own projection and rationalization against what someone else says that you don’t like hearing.
