Trad husbands usually end with problems because it goes against human nature. I know from experience. Going against human evolution usually ends with disaster, this isn’t any different.
Please explain what you mean.

It’s a shame that today economics make it almost impossible for that to still be the norm for most middle class Americans.

Let's talk about the real problem here. Affordable housing is in the hood in shite school districts. Crime and shitty people have forced good people to either live amongst the shite, or find a way to afford a $300k home in Louisiana.
Subsidized housing is a fn problem. Gone are the days of buying a 1350 sq ft house in a safe neighborhood full of blue collar families. All those neighborhoods are dumps now, the new ones have half million dollar homes in them.

Stay at home husbands go against human nature. A job VS a career seems like the smart choice, but sooner or later a man not being able to be a man will become a problem for almost any man.

Thats the dumbest statement I've seen posted here in a while, and I mean including the leftist Kamala lovers too.
What I earn is mine, plain and simple. The only person I trust in this world 100% is me. I cannot control what she does and she doesn't control me.
I would die for this woman, bit if she decides to break our vows, I'm still looking out for me.
Screw chancing anything of wealth that I earned to be granted by a court to anyone else but me.

There is no distrust just a preparedness that be both agreed was needed should anything for any reason happen.
She's willed 100% of my estate and I am her beneficiary.
We've been married over 20 years and she is the sole reason I've been successful.
But, we aren't stupid and are prepared for the worst.
I just never understood how two people are OK sharing wealth 100% openly without restraint. It's a terrible idea.

Yes but not the initial plan really. We have a lot of kids and the cost of daycare...it was a no brainer. Would have been a net negative financially and made our lives harder.
We also view each others role as an equal. Not one time has there been resentment towards our roles. I view the money made is "our money" and not "my money."
Where some couples go wrong is viewing it as they are making "the money" and they shouldn't pull their weight in other ways.

A man’s money VS a woman’s money are two different things in a true stay at home situation, especially in 2024. A man that’s working and bringing the money home in today’s world would be ostracized from society if he told his wife she couldn’t have any money. If a woman is bringing home the money and tells her husband he can’t have any money, she will be celebrated as a Girl Boss.

So, you don't have kids.

Kids are the main reason many married couples are still together when it gets to the point of who’s spending money.

And?
That is the way it should be
The whole concept of marriage inherently means combing your assets, etc. It really isn't hard to not be a total degenerate. Imagine a world where one has children with a person they are willing to spend a lifetime with instead of being a deadbeat plant worker that knocks some girl up at 19 and then complains about ex wives on the internet.

It’s been working for over 30 years. Why change what isn’t broken?

Exactly, why would you think I don’t believe that? What I was trying to say is that the money a man makes compared to money a woman makes, and the way it’s treated in society isn’t the same. A husband is a POS if he tells his wife not to spend money, a woman doing the same thing will be celebrated like she’s breaking the glass ceiling. I applaud every married couple that stays together because of the children, putting aside differences to raise kids that will grow into adults that will have a better chance to become even better adults isn’t something to take lightly.
