House-husbands

Why are house-husbands not treated with dignity in the society?
A successful mans' housewife gets good respect but a successful woman's house-husband is mocked, laughed and ridiculed! Especially in my country India..

There is a saying in India(may be in other countries also), that is.

" UDYOGAM PURUSHA LAKSHNAM"

SO, MALES WHO WORK, EARN AND TAKE CARE OF HIS WIFE, HIS CHILDREN AND HIS FAMILY ARE ONLY, RESPECTED.

@Vimala I agree with you.. But what is wrong with the other way round? I mean nothing wrong if a husband wants to be at home with wife working, right?

@Degbeme Good, is it recently or right from the young days?
Probably toxic masculinity.

@Blaaah Hard for me to answer this in short. There are many wives i have seen (Atleast in India) who like the husband and house to function the way she wants..

It's just not accepted in society. But at the end of the day if your household is running good and your family is taken care of nothing else really matters.

@TheunderdogofNY Your first sentence defines the actual thing in soceity!
Isn’t India annoyingly traditional in most aspects of life?

@ToastyPickles Off-course it is..
Even if the couple are happy in their own space, others step in and start making fun of the guy.
Or better yet... when you’re forced to marry someone you don’t want to at a very young age. I know not all marriages are like this, but it definitely happens. I couldn’t even imagine..😫 @Indianboy

Men and women are equal. Don't let society judge you.

With a wife like yours, you should laugh back.

A product of years of sexism.
