The work you do will never be seen as a real job, It will be completely useless on your resume when you need find work, and you can't transfer sacrifices you make for men into your bank account so that alone shows it's never worth it.
And all you do is give him the opertunity to create a legacy for himself on your back. Your life raft is money, a door that never closes in your face. No matter what kind of fairytale Men will tell you that they'll love you more for building with them, or that you're doing what's best for the family it can be modified anytime to suit his life the most. Men build for themselves and only look after themselves because that's how they are driven. Men are like those pity commercials you see on tv about donating while not even a single penny goes to a good cause, they don't care that you go broke or homeless as long as you believe the lie that you mean something to them and you keep on giving.
100% YES!!
There's a reason why so many housewives of the 50s/60s fought to enter the workforce in the 70s.
Feminists 1890: Women have a right to a career and life outside their husband! Look at the fallen women before us and now who got beat, cheat, and abandoned with 12 kids and 0 savings!
Feminists 2023: If you don't support me doing unpaid domestic labor for a man that's not legally bound to support me with alimony if things go south, then you're actually anti-feminist because feminism is about supporting women's individual choices!
I do think women should have the option to choose though. Some genuinely want to be a housewife because they want to focus on raising kids etc, and there's nothing much wrong with that as long as it's her decision ONLY. I'm saying this because I was borderline neglected as a kid due to both of my parents being at work 24/7, and this has kind of messed me up in the long term. Plus the adults at daycare were assholes. Although we were poor and definitely couldn't afford one of the parent being at home all the time so I don't blame them. At the same time some want to focus on their careers, and there's nothing wrong about that either. Like I said, both should be an open choice with no pressure.
Im a stay at home single woman lol. I think if in this situation do something on the side or work part time to keep your skills uptodate
