What would you do if the girl of your dreams told you she wants this?

I think its a little too good to be true, if it is true, hold on tight to her and never let her go, but be sure its not some carrot on a stick case, you follow the carrot and get the stick.

If she put out as well whenever you wanted that would be a perfect woman

I'm married now and so long as we don't have kids, I will work. I wouldn't consider being a housewife unless we did have kids. I already clean the house, feed the pets, take care of the finances, do most of the domestic work etc. and I have a full time job AND go to college full time. But solely being a housewife without kids...? What the hell would I do all day when the chores were done? I could do all of this shit in a matter of hours, shoot, I did it all today!

If we have kids, then this would actually be my ideal situation, and I would work once the kids are old enough to live without my constant care and supervision (I'm a scholar and a career woman at heart, unless I can find a full time schedule in doing community service, but I'm sure I could fit it into a work schedule).

Sorry, men. I am NOT going to subject my offspring to an impersonal environment full of children from who knows what stock, if I can help it. I know that there are a lot of good day cares out there, but I prefer to care for them and educate them myself, until they are old enough for me to make the decision to send them to public or private school or homeschool, in which case I'd stay out of the work force. Young children that are at a critical point in development need their Mother and I want to be the one to care for them. No offense to women who do day care their children, I know there are advantages to day care, but I'd prefer to be more involved with their early years, if I have the option.

Those are my personal feelings about it. I want to be a stay at home Mom until I have confidence in my children's self-reliance skills, and I want to be present to teach them this self-reliance in their early years. The thumbs down button beckons you now. Go for it.

If she was intelligent and educated I'd seriously question her command of logical thought if she didn't want to use that to get a decent job. It would make sense to me that if you're smart enough to get a job it's a bit of an odd choice to to get one.

Her's wouldn't be a view I shared, but I would certainly agree to it if it was what she wanted, so long as my wage was enough for us both to live a comfortable life on. If my job wasn't enough to live a good life, I couldn't be part of a marriage like that. Like so many things, it comes down to money.

Sounds pretty fuckin sweet to me!

Then she wouldn't be the woman of my dreams. I want a woman who brings home a pay check to put with mine and save money for a better quality of life.

I'm not fortunate enough to have a high paying job since i didn't go to college. So... if we lived off just my pay we'd be struggling.

Other: I'm a male who would do those things. I want a man who wants that to ask for my hand in marriage.

I just think that if there are kids involved there should be one parent at home raising them and one doing the financial supporting. And women are better with kids usually.
I always perfered female company while growing up.

She could do all that, and have a job she's just lazy

I honestly like women who have dreams and potential, but honestly it's her life and to spend mine with an amazing person would be wonderful, regardless if I was the breadwinner and she was the submissive '50's housewife.

I guess I would have to say I have the perfect man. He works and I stay home with the kids we have a 2 and 3 year old. He doesn't want me to work, he believes thats the mans job while the woman stays home and raises the kids. I clean the house most of the time but he also helps me when Iv'e had a really ruff day with kids. And He cooks for us all the time lol...I think its cause he doesnt like my cooking. ha ha I never make him he just does, and he says he knows how stressful the kids are. We pay someone to mow the lawn and his only regular chore is the trash. He chose it to be he believes a woman should never have to do the trash. I do it sometimes though when hes sleeping lol he doesnt even notice. He said he doesnt want me to work but if I really do then I can but never to pay any bills. He said he wouldnt feel like a man if I had to pay any bills. He says he believes a woman should never have to work unless she wants to.I would'nt mind paying bills though. And I want to get a job after the kids start school. I wont have anything to do anymore after they do. The kids are who make the house an utter mess, and who keep me busy all day. The house will be a breeze to clean and keep up with when they start school. People say he is old fashioned, but whatever it is I consider him to be the perfect man. He's great with the kids. And I really couldn't ask for a better man. He loves working but refuses to sit behind a desk, instead he chose to be a welder. I don't know lol he's perfect in my eyes.

It sounds too good to be true.
I think both partners should work and make a contribution. Why would a intelligent and educated woman want that for herself? It's rather suspicious. Please watch out for yourself incase she's crazy

It would be great if you had a well paying, very secure job. With the way the current economy is, planning to never have two incomes may not be the best choice. One thing to consider, is that the income is your only responsibility, and if you lose your job and can't find another, the relationship will likely slide downhill fast.
When there's children in the picture, I believe one parent should surrender their career for at least a few years, but ideally until they're a bit older. In my opinion, if both parents have to work full time plus to make ends meet, then they're not ready financially to have kids. Kids should be raised by their parents, not babysitters.

I think its a carrot and stick situation... be careful.. I just don't feel right about this.
there's no point in being a housewife if you guys dont have kids at this moment. she can find some part time job or whatever. she's educated.. cant believe she just wasted that..

I would want the exact opposite, I would want her to work full-time, while I am a stay at home husband. I like cooking, and keeping a small apartment clean is easy as. I don't want kids, so no work required there. The rest of the day would be piss easy. Just wait till she gets home, feed her, and give her all the sex she can handle. Perfect!

Where is the "I want that" option? It seems there is only one option for this, but it's not even a "I definetly want this in a partner" and more like a "Meh, it would be nice, but not perfect". Where is the "I would love this is a partner"?

I think I was to be with someone, it would be someone like that. But let's be honest, finding someone like that is rare. Even today if a man is doing all the working hours and earning the money, the woman at home will tell him to clean something up, regardless of him busting his ass off for the money for the house.

"-- at least that's what you want her to be."

I don't want a relationship. So this doesn't concern me :/
