women who do not work hurt themselves in the end. women out there, you have to maintain your independence from your man and work or else one day he is going to walk out with someone who does, that is, if he is not already doing that. i see too many women suffer for it. how about people like my who cant work?? due to medical conditions ?? If you can not work ,you are entitled to a disability pension . So you get a cheque too . i get benefits

There's another side to this situation. Men who are sole providers of the family generally do not have a backup plan if something happens to income. Wife #2 asked if she could quit her job, and it was fine with me, although it was kindof nice to be taken out on dates with her money. My mates have always been of the traditional variety, who either started out as or changed carreers into the home engineering specialty. It probably helps alot when we men appreciate the woman's side of the partnership but it's still a team effort, regardless of who works for money, and who works for family.

Team work is the right way to go .

I don't WANT a woman who works outside the home. Thus far, I've been very lucky to find women who do not work. I'm the only job they need. In turn, I hand over ALL my money to them.

Really? My best friend has 4 daughters. She quit work because day was costing her entire paycheck. She was working to pay other people to care for her kids. It didn't seem reasonable. In fact there are many families who save money when the one making the least stops work to take care of the family. They save money on daycare, on food, since they stop eating on the run all the time, and on gas. Not to mention that the working partner is also free to take overtime they usually turned down because of childcare issues. Women who decide to take time off from working are not the issue. It is anyone, of any gender, who is just living off a another person to avoid having to work that is the problem. Being a full time parent and homekeeper is a huge job and these days, people spend a lot more money paying other people to do it to work only enough to be able pay for those other people, not to actually get ahead.

Totally agree. As someone who prepares taxes for a living, I see people claiming daycare expenses that are often as much as one person makes for the whole year--without throwing in the expenses of having a second vehicle.
