@abbyeckel: If you give up financial independence you give up power. Even in the BEST most PERFECT relationships, a shift in power happens when women give up their financial independence. And it often hurts them in the long run in ways like losing out on retirement contributions, social security, lost wages, AND THE ABILITY TO LEAVE. If you’re considering staying home and leaving the workforce for any length of time, get a postnup.
Ever notice men don't complain about being a SAHD? In fact they find it to be the easiest thing they ever did.

Yes......exactly right!! I'm out working so you don't have to. When I come home there should be ZERO excuses why things aren't taken care of!!

I chose a man who would agree that ai would stay home and raise my four kids. I’m not a victim. I’m a boss.

The same women who want to be a sahm will throw it in your face later how she sacrificed her career and everything else for this family. Like she didn’t like being able to go to the gym or meet her friends for lunch while her husband was at work and the kids were in school every day. First 5 years of a sahp is the toughest

I've seen too many stay at home moms abandoned by the men who promised to take care of them and leave them with nothing

Yep, like when I was losing my mind with two kids under three and pregnant for the third time and I needed a break. I was told I should just be thankful I don’t have a real job. I’m happily divorced now. ✌💋

So if you both work, but then get a divorce, does he still owe you alimony?

I'll give you the same advice my Grandma Mamie gave me: if you fall in love with a man, don't ever marry him and always have your own money. she also gave me a heavy cast iron skillet.

Men give us a task with moveable goalposts that we will eventually fail at. they engineer a situation where you deserve punishment. it's the dishing out of punishment that gives them the biggest s*xual frisson.

The Poem Guy :
Typically the income a woman can earn barely pays for daycare while someone else raises your children. I’d gladly be the stay at home parent if she earned enough to provide financially the same amount I can.
