[Debate] Why Are Stay At Home Dads Treated Worse Than Stay At Home Moms?

[Kishi Uzumaki]

It started in stone age, when men go for hunts for food ( man was the one that was built to do so and considering it was very dangerous to a point the men who went might not ever return either he die from injuries or other things while on the hunt ) it's was woman duty to take care of their children and collect other needed resources .

now days it's man's duty to provide his family and woman's to take care of the household ( in traditional society ) and most people still have their traditional beliefs so they will look at people that defy the traditionalism in bad eyes it's not only happens to stay home dads it happens to everyone who goes against the traditionalism .

personally i think both man and woman must take care their responsibilities in house and society together that's the only way to succeed as a family . .

Actually, if one is capable in doing so – why not?

When I was young, Dad works as a seaman so he’s not always there. But Mom insisted to work because she thinks that if Dad loses his job, where can we go? And that decision is right, for when my Dad retired early and has no savings–my Mom worked for us and even send us to school alone. Then, Dad is now stay at home. He cooks, cleans, repairs what needed to repair, takes care of his grandson/daughter, etc.

They did it NOT because of gender equality nor the standard of society, but because they need to do it for their family, to the best of their abilities.

I'm a stay at home Dad.

My household has been split up by task and necessity regardless of gender.

My wife makes better dough where we live. I'm good with kids and my experience as an educator makes me pretty good at teaching my baby girl new stuff.

There's always heat from certain camps (as we've seen in this thread) but do what you want for your family that best suits y'all and the rest can take a walk.

I always believe Father provides financial support and mother gives moral support to their children.
To be honest males have more strength than females and they can work late nights for extra income which I don't consider the best option for females (security reasons).
So I think its not good if the males strength is wasted on household purposes rather than earning money. They are losers for me. If both work then its okay.

Alot of people believe stay at home dads to be lazy and ineffective as a men unlike the woman who they see to be a hardworking mom raising kids. Why is that? Society has placed the burden of being the main provider of the family on the man. Why?

The answer is: most of stay at home moms haven't chosen their destiny, it's either their parents, society or their husbands who asked/forced them to do that. If they had a chance to work in fields they would graciously accept it.
I'm a woman, I don't mind if I have to work and my husband stay at home caring my kids. Better than having babysitters.
