I think that’s understand. But we are talking permanent stay at home mom
I see narratives being brought in about unrealistically selfish men that nobody's ever met...
The conversation gets crazy because everybody values different things.
And the type of man you are, along with the type of Women you are around will effect how you view letting a woman be a stay at home mom.
I ain't with all that relationship stuff.
But for me a stay at home wife would be more beneficial.
If you told a smart woman all she gotta do is look good, cook, clean, take care of the kids, and not f*ck anybody else.
Shed jump at that opportunity.
And your life would be straight. You just gotta pay for it.
But the best things in life is gonna cost

If most men could afford it, they would take this in a heartbeat.
Why would you not want your children to be 100% raised by your wife?
It's just not realistic for the average American anymore.

To the bolded. It is traditional...in a way.
A money hungry, money spending bytch is not wife material at all.
So I'm not talking about them.
However a marriage is like a company.
A company people like to work for, treats employees well.
They get benefits, bonuses, maybe gifts on holidays. Things to make them feel appreciated for their hard work. Even though they are still getting a pay check.
Having a woman in your life u have to understand treating them nicely makes a happy wife (employee).
Shes gonna do her job anyway but you just wanna show appreciation.
If she likes a trip here and there or some new clothes every once in awhile. You take care of it.
Because it will pay off in the long run for you.
Again, a bytch who just constantly wants things shouldn't even be next to you

People keep bringing up traditional roles. How is a working woman not traditional? She still cooks, cleans, and takes care of the kids. Men are also still traditional in that they protect, does various house repairs, lawn care, and takes care of the kids.
This traditional role thing is nothing but mumbo jumbo. There is no real difference between a stay at home woman and a working woman.

How much would a sole provider of 4 need to make in a modest city?
How obtainable is that salary?
Are there enough jobs with that salary for a majority of men?

More than you make, so don’t worry about itHow much would a sole provider need to make in a modest city, say ATL?
For me, dealbreaker unless I'm clearing 500k or better YoY.
It costs upwards of 80k to 100k a year to HEAITHILY raise a child in the US. (Food, Healthcare, education, clothing, baby supplies, extracurriculars, etc.)

Unless the economy changes, dual income is needed. I make over six figures but so many debts I'm paying off, I'm not balling out like folks usually associate with that income and no kids. fukking credit card debt, rent, bills, student loans, car payments and insurance, on and on and on doesn't even make pay day enjoyable. Not to mention the increased cost of everything. I remember when I got my first job in my first career back in the day making 45k. But my first rent was like 650 a month. I haven't looked but I wouldnt be surprised if that same apartment is charging almost 2k now. shyt is crazy. If I was making that now, I can't imagine not needing some help.
The economy is not setup in a way where a single breadwinner is doable anymore unless you're making a lot of money. Make the COL almost half and then I'll be comfortable with my spouse not bringing in any money.
I actually pay almost all our expenses now but my girl puts all her money into savings. This is what I want her to do because after all the expenses and maybe some money for fun I have very little to go into savings. But every now and the an unexpected expense like a car repair may come up and I will have her help out. If she wasn't contributing, outside of my 401k we would have very little going into savings.

It's a god to honest question.

You trying to press the wrong one. I don’t believe in single income households unless one person is making crazy dough. I’m also anti “the anti 50-50” crowd - they don’t make sense.
In 2024 and the IG women raised era “Stay at home mom” = “The MAN pays all my BULLshyt non essential bills, covers all my travel, luxury vacations, shopping, luxury dining and items while I barely look after the child or don’t raise the child properly as I want to STUNT on the gram” 
Over 70 percent of married women are in the workforce because they have to workI’ll park here and observe all the posters who talk out both sides of their mouth. Be in one thread talking about a woman’s traditional role and in the next not with the traditional male role
If a woman can not be a virgin until marriage and be traditional
Then women can work and still be traditional

No, I'm not trying to press you at all.
I'm trying to get you to realize that a vast majority of men can't be sole providers even if they could. I mean it might be doable on $100k, but a woman would have to be happy living with the essentials.
