Men, Would You Consider Being Househusbands? by Opeyemiextra(f): 3:20pm On Dec 11, 2021
We know that traditionally, women are saddled with the responsibility of running and taking care of the home hence the title home makers while their male counterparts provide what is needed to run the home, hence the title, providers. These roles are taken seriously and failures by either party would be termed as irresponsibility.

But in recent times, we have seen an unprecedented shift and fluidity in these roles and how they are played. Women are now providers and sometimes even breadwinners while men have also been involved in running the home especially with child care. This has generated debates with some still holding on to the traditional role division.

To the reason for this post:
So, most men, at least on this platform, complain of women only wanting them because of what they can bring to the table. If the tables are turned, as a man, would you be a househusband while your wife provides?

Any man that can't provide for his family, should willingly submit himself to be house-husband

Anything short of that will lead to trouble marriage

baseless assumptions, this is what this post of yours is all about.

Learn to back whatever you say with concrete fact/proof.

PS: Come to think of it. It'll be nice to just lay back and relax and ask the wife to buy you the latest phone, latest ride, latest clothes and the likes and also, you get to chase the family of the wife away anytime they come knocking. grin

Afterall, the privileges of the housewife should be extended to the house husband, isn't life beautiful. grin

It would be a privilege to retire early and be a stay home dad aka househusband. I would really love to be very active in the life of my kids. Drop and pick them from school, take them to their games, have a hot plate await them when they return from school etc.

I won’t want to be a househusband without money though because women do not treat kindly men without money. I think we will see more men willing to be househusbands when more women are willing to provide for their families without a grudge.

To get the average woman to contribute 50% for the upkeep of their families is still a tug of war talk less of being the sole provider. If a woman has to solely provide for her home she doesn’t need the man and she will show him clearly in words and in deeds.

That's true,
But you see those men that allow pride to rule their lives, they are having it hot hot from their wives

Most married men who can't provide the way their wives does, helps them at home and you won't hear or know, as a matter of fact, he doesn't keep friends because he doesn't want them to mock him

Before you know it, the family is a happy family

Because of his loyalty at home, the wife can raise him up with a business or UBER
