I see this is the hot topic of the moment.
I will always say do what works for your household.
That will look different from one household to another.
That said, a lot of men play themselves trying to take care of women and provide provision for women that really don’t want to pull their weight in the marriage/relationship and want a man to take care of them.
A partnership where one partner is shouldering 90-100 percent of the financial burden when the other partner is able bodied and doesn’t want to contribute is NOT a partnership.
No relationship is ever truly even or 50/50. Sometimes it will be 60/40, 70/30, 80/20, etc. Sometimes those odds will be in your favor other times they’ll be in your partners favor. If you got someone that truly cares about you beyond what you can provide financially they’ll take up the slack at times when you can’t.
