Real men protect and earn the living.

Is it any wonder females look down on men?

It is the female that is supposed to stay home and raise the kids.

Ah so I'm not a real man? Is that it? Sigh...there's always an ******* in every crowd, and I guess today it's you.

Sure, ideally, that is exactly what would happen. But it doesn't always work out that way, and I didn't think any less of my husband when he was staying home with our kids. I had done it before (and am doing it now) and I know how hard a job it is, even when it's something you do willingly.

Mr. Ex is certainly a "real man", rest assured.

You "guys" (ha ha) are a real piece of work:

"dad at home = self absorbed brats, women preferred in job market, feminized, etc."

It is modern society that separates men from their families. The overwhelming rule for a good society over the last thousand years is a Dad that is home or near home most of the time. Agrarian societies the dad works from home. Your comments taken to the logical conclusion means people like farmers are feminized brats ruined by modern society, when in fact the opposite is true.

Men at home are taking the more difficult job.

There are plenty of exceptions to the rule on both sides (stay at home women who walk all over their men, etc.), but I don't think any generalizations can be made.
