What woman wants to put her child in daycare so she can bust her @ss 50 hours a week at a job, go home to clean and cook and laundry? Id love to be able to stay home, but with the cost of living what it is now, there is no way that is financially possible. You are dreaming the dream all of us as little girls dreamed. Good luck with it though.

The thought of doing that scares the hell out of me. I rather fancy getting up before god and catching the train to work while I'm still a bit sleepy, spending the day with a smart, compassionate group of people and going home knowing we've made a difference.
Meanwhile back at home I do all the cooking and cleaning. Sure, I've tried delegating to the cats, but they delegate to the rug and the lamp and the stuffed animal that sits in the window. When I find myself asking that damn toy bear why the laundry isn't fun, you better believe I'm feeling stupid. And when I have to take away his television watching privileges, trust I feel even stupider. Especially when he gets smug and points out that we don't have a television. He's right, but still...
Fact of the matter is I really like my life!

It isn't a turn off for a lot of men. Its isn't wrong of you either, however I will say this out of experience. That man that is suppose to take care of you forever, may not decide to be there forever and you better be capable of earning your own income if he ups and leaves you with some extra mouths to feed, because child support won't cover everything. If you want to be a stay at home wife/mom before that occurs get experience somewhere so if ever you fall into an unwanted situation you can at least put on an application you worked somewhere at sometime for someone.

There are alot of men who would be just fine with that. What you should be aware of is the possibility that some years down the road, you may change your mind and want to venture out to do things outside the home. If the man you married did so on the premise that you were to stay home, then you could be in for some trouble.

Its sounds good, i wanted that to but to be real what if something where to happen to the man you marry. who would support the family you will not be working and it would be heard to find a job. But really it's not bad. I think lots of women want that mainly when the babies come. What if sometimes where to happen to the you how would he be able to take care of himself and the kids if you have them. I am not trying to say something bad will happen but you never know what god has planned for you. at least work out of your home or have like an Internet job.

You don't want a job because you lack ambition and that is a turn off for any man. Just because a couple chooses to have the woman stay home that shouldn't be masking the fact that the woman has nothing to offer anyway. Men want someone who has something going on in their life. Not some bore who just wants to be a housewife.

I cook, I clean house, I do laundry. I don't want kids. I like all the fun of working at having them without the consequences. So...that leaves you staying at home.
Nope...get out there and work hun. Although your qualifications are impeccable marriage is a two way proposition. I like the idea of staying home too but this little irritating thing call 'mortagage" keeps popping up.
So...I would insist that you work as well.

For some men yes, they want help with bringing home the bacon.
But this is the arrangement my husband and I have and he loves it. All he has to do is make the money. I take care of everything else, the budgeting, kids, cleaning, cooking, shopping etc. Everyone calls me Suzi-Homemaker.
He walks in the door to a clean house and me ready to make him breakfast while he's in the shower (he gets home at different hours, so if he calls from the road to say he's on his way, it's ready for him when he walks in). His laundry is always done and if there's a rip in something I sew it. When he wakes up dinner is on the table, I make his lunch for work, bake whatever he wants and sometimes he brings it to work to share with his co-workers. He works outside and in the winter I knit him thick socks and his feet are never cold, like his co-workers...poor guys. He loves and appreciates everything I do for him, as I do him. This is all I ever wanted to do, take care of my family and my husband, and have him take care of me.
He views himself as spoiled, and I view myself as spoiled, lol...because we both have exactly what we want in a relationship.

Some men may like your type of woman. My wife stayed at home with the kids for awhile but I think that she is more interesting now that she is working.
She has a lot more to talk about and is happier.
So it is what ever it is that will make you happy that matters because a happy wife makes a haoppy home.

no not realy turning off. for me i think thats nice and better for a lady. caus most of men like the woman who takecare of him and care about him, like when he want to go to work she put for him clean ironed clothes on the table, last night i was watching tv talk show, she asked a famous singer ' if ur husbend came home tired after he finished his work will u be ready to clean his feet' and the singer answered ' hell yeah, if i didnt takecare of him who will? and i know if i was tired he will do the same thing for me'. and about cooking, as a man i will say this ' the best way to get man heart is through his stomech'. and about work, usualy its up to the wife if she want to work or not. but for me i have no problem with working wife but i want from her 1 thing which is raising my sons and doughters caus i dont want the maid to be there mother......
in the end, whatever u do for your husbend he will give it back for u 10 times. if u love him he will love u 10 times more and dont forget most of men cant tell how much they love there wives. so u can do the math.
