I have seen this a lot especially nowadays where the women works every day and supports the household while the lazy bum husband/boyfriend stays home doing nothing and wont work..i was brought up in a home where my dad and brother worked there butts off non stop to provide for their families and still do never looking towards a female for financial support.....so what gives? why would a woman be so stupid as to support a grown ass man? I can understand sometimes a spouse may get injured or get laid off temporarily but to just never work because they don't want to? that just seems like a complete loser good for nothing scumbag to me not a man and why would a woman be with someone like that? my neighbor across the street is with a guy like that..she works every day to support her and her 3 kids and her loser husband/bf or whatever the hell he is just hangs out in the front yard all day and night messing with his piece of **** cars and smoking he looks perfectly healthy enough to be working....I don't get it? do these females have low self esteems or something? I would never eva eva support a man oh hell no!!

What difference does it make who the breadwinner is. Could be the husband, could be the wife, could be both. I would not mind being the breadwinner with a partner who took care of all the domestic stuff to make my life easier. I would draw the line at having a mate who did nothing tho.

IDK, maybe the guy has a magic dumb stick.
My brothers first wife wouldn't work or do anything at home and mom asked him if his wife had a golden p...y.

why do women stay with and support men who dont work?

Being too desperate and not valuing themselves enough!

Probably the same reasons there are men who support women who don't work. Some households require a single income, some require a double income. Some households reap other benefits out of having a spouse who stays home. Some partners temporarily support the other partner while he or she is pursuing something like schooling. Some people are getting a free ride, and if everyone involved is okay with that, there's really nothing left to be said about it, all parties found something that works for them. If somebody's not happy with their situation, it's on them to address it with their partner. This is true regardless of who is the source of the primary income.

It's your own personal call to say, "I would never eva eva support a man oh hell no!" I assume that means you'd never eva eva expect a man to support you, either, though.

If they are happy, then why does it matter?

Where was the rule written that man or woman had to play this or that role?

Over time, men have supported women, and vice versa. Who cares who's doing the supporting as long as the couple is happy with the arrangement?

Plain and simple, if they are unhappy, because they feel like they aren't getting any support in the relationship, they should do something about that. They need to take some initiative.

Women are stupid for supporting their family or love ones?

My brother stays home while his wife works. She makes six figures, so there's no financial reason for him to work. He takes care of the house and makes sure their daughter gets to and from school and does her homework.

To an outsider, I'm sure he looks like a bum, but his wife is the one who suggested the arrangement.
