Did I fail to mention the lunches, business trips and team building meetings?

What I find ironic is that those are the things my husband complains about.

A hot husband staying at home and all the stay at home mommies in the neighborhood at home too?

I don't think so.

I don't really believe in stay at home moms either. Stay at home when the kids are in school. Between birth and 5 stay at home if you want. Once kiddos go to school you do something husband or wife.

There's no need to be at home. Clean throughout the week, have everyone clean. Do the laundry on Sat morning instead of being in the stores at 9am then you have the rest of the day free.

Not everyone lives the same lifestyle. It's very easy to generalize when you can't accept that not everyone lives just like you do.

What happens when the natural aging and body-changing process kicks in? Us men generally tend to become "blah" starting around our mid-30's.

I've never heard of a guy that would want to stay at home cooking and cleaning while a woman worked. I've only heard of women doing this to men.

Oh I really have to disagree with you here.

A man in his late 30's is JUST starting to reach his prime. Late 40's/early 50's is ideal for a man.

Women don't DO this to men...it's usually a joint decision between a married couple.

$250k is not much money in large cities like LA, SF, NYC (especially if you have kids).
