I'm type 2 if anyone cares with a slight graviton to type one. I have an education and career but would love to be suzy home maker. These days not many want a suzy homemaker.
I don't think it's that hard finding a man that appreciates that.
a) The old-fashioned ones are the types that still want to wait till marriage and become more focus on being a housewife with excellent cooking skills and having kids.
b) The one with mixture of both consists of those that might not be too focused on waiting till marriage but only have interest in long-term monogamous relationships, work/study but still married for the purpose of being a great household partner and mother to his kids.
c) Very career-minded are those that want to finish their major and/travel, believes in long-term monogamous relationship but might not want kids. Not traditional like the first.
Well let's see. I waited until marriage. I am an excellent cook. I am loyal and monogamous. Always wanted children but my husband and I were never able to make that happen. Have a professional career, but have very traditional values.
Many of my female friends are the same, but most do have children.

Category 3; possibly with a thriving career that demands assiduous attention, but more importantly, little patience for traditional domestic life.
Curiously, we have several threads currently ongoing, where men bemoan the paucity of Category-3 women. So perhaps the great impediment is not the small numbers, but the inability to contact one another?
But I don't think any of the options at this point. Someone more off the map of society's typical path. I'm pretty sure that's what I'll need if I can find it.
Most men want a balanced woman that will respect them.
This is probably the best response I've seen in this thread.
This is not a speculation about the OP, but I think a lot of people compare dating and marriage to the 1950's style of how marriage and dating went and it's incredibly flawed. The stereotype of the 1950's wife just being a housewife and was super-old fashioned isn't a factual representation of how men saw women throughout history or how they see them today. Or how women really were. I think the majority of men want a balanced woman who believes in prioritizing her family and home, but has a level of professional development which is conducive to career prospects and earning potential. Most important, a man wants to be with a woman who'll respect him and show her commitment to him no matter what she is, whether she's "old-fashioned" or not.
