i would leave an unemployed man who isn't makin an effort to find another job and does nothin all day.

Pretty vague question. Could be any number of reasons, depending on the people and the circumstances, and most likely has little to do with the man/woman thing.

The man was traditionally seen as the sole provider in a number of cultures.

Because women are snakes with t*ts.

What if you make enough money to support the both of you, why force the poor man to work. Wouldn't you prefer if he went to the salon to keep himself looking pretty for you?

Watching soap opera's and eating chocolate all day is hard work. Men have equal right to do it.

if a man aint got no money, he gettin' no honey... u dig?

word!

If he wants to be the housewife I don't mind

That's generally when women were expected to be housewives.

It depends on where you are at in your relationship. If it was something serious, and she left because you lost your job, that should tell you something about her priorities, amongst other things.. It also depends on her mentality though, and yours for that matter. In short, don't make such generalizations, not all women or men think the same way.

because she was only with you in the first place because you had a job and an income but now that you have lost that, you have lost your value to her. And I agree with all of what ladi says. And I agree with prop too.

Housewife is a derogatory term. It's called Home executive you male chauvinist pig.

Already knew you are racist, now you having added misogyny to your charming qualities list is of no surprise.

Never if he's not going to be working he's going to be no more than a housewife. He's also required an apron. Or a maid outfit actually.. and he better not nag about all the gossip going around the local housewives as well hmpf

I'm a homophobe too and I bully the weak and down-trodden. Oh, and fk animals as well.

You must feel so proud of yourself. :)

sounds more like he'll end up being your own personal slave :p

Indeed
