Nope, women prefer to not work. Men like to be the provider. So it's a win-win.
Doesn't mean wives only stay at home and watch TV. They go out with other girls if they are bored, everyone is just a call away. Gets to go on shopping, she can hit the gym if she wants to (they rarely do because we don't have your crazy expectations for women,but we have crazy expectations for men, not to complain, I like People having crazy expectations for me ), go to museum, there's lots and lots of activities around. Just this other day mom made me go with her to this planetarium and see this kind of a documentary of the space in a sort of 6D cinema type.

Keeping the husband happy is in the best interest of the wife, I believe. If for some reason hubby starts getting uneasy at work and generally displeased with how things are going, he may quit his job or get into gambling habits. Which means the woman will have to go work and bring home money, which is draining for her and not worth the hassle so she prefers to keep her man happy so that she and the whole family can be happy.  : ')

Can you please answer LfC's first question?

Also, why do you assume going to work is draining for anyone? Who are you to assign that? How are you to know what anyone prefers, no matter what their gender?

How do figure all of this speech of yours isn't misogynistic?

I wonder who does the laundry and cleaning in homes where the mom sits around watching tv all day...
Probably the magical chore fairy

To answer LFC, whatever that is harmful is not justified in a marriage.

To answer your question, like I said, women aren't told NOT to work, they prefer not to work because it makes sense for them,in many places women are encouraged to work - they just prefer not to miss out on all the fun that comes with a good family life.

If me and my whole community are women haters for pampering women and treating them as equals, I'll wholeheartedly accept the label of "Misogynist".

Yeabut in India guys who are involuntarily single can opt for an arranged marriage

I'm not interested in a doormat. I don't need to step on someone else to feel like I'm rising, myself.

I like your brain, Thump.

Got any bread?
I'm making you a goddamned sandwich, just for the hell of it.

I'll cook dinner for us, so long as you don't whack me on the head with a rollin' pin. I'm easy like that.

You like Mediterranean? I'm on a jag for that the last couple of years.
