You'd be surprised how intimidated some men are concerning this. The silent - no comment look they give when you tell them you're a stay-at-home dad.
But it's not so much because they're looking down on stay-at-home dads. It's more because many know THEY THEMSELVES could be not too far away from having to "stay home" themselves. For many men, it wasn't a choice to stay home, it's a trend brought on by today's market economy.
But often times men don't criticizing it more because they're afraid of speaking out against the cultural implications of "sexism" rather than because they recognize what it's doing to the framework of the family at home.
But what if the economic and societal conditions fling more and more men out of the job market? Isn't that what's happened over the last 20 years? Lets just say, men are having a hard time with this, and families have indeed been impacted by it. Lets be humble about these things. While it's not a bad thing to have dad around the house more often, it's nevertheless an anomaly w/in the family economy that demonstrates a fracturing society.
Today's technology and industry has allowed many people to work from home and spend more time at home, but many have had to stay home altogether.
It's actually NOT a good thing that more and more women are "replacing" men in the job market and being the financial head-of households.
That is, in spite of the celebration of women being more empowered in the workforce.
Women are more than half of the ones entering college and attaining higher degrees and there seems to be today more and more opportunities for women in the workforce - whereas for men, this trend is just the opposite.
Therefore, it's good for some women.... not so good for men. It can be a double-edged sword.
God has given men their roles in the home and God has given women their roles in the home. This has become taboo to even suggest it in today's culture. But it's a general reality that when ignored and/or replaced in a society, will always lead to societal destruction.
So, if this is the case in society today, let it continue being an anomaly with the hopes that it'll be flipped back around in society as soon as possible.
