@randomperson1943 Weird thing about today is that neither the boys nor the girls seem to know how to cook! People think I'm a sexist for making cooking a requirement in a female, but I think it's a requirement for an ADULT. If you can't cook, you're not my equal partner. I can cook and I'll do my share, but I'm not gonna be anybody's mommy, although Daddy's fine fixing breakfast, lunch, dinner for the young-uns. That's like the first undeniable proof of your love for them. But a woman who can't cook is still just a little girl. A man who can't cook is still just a little boy.

In the old days, the children were the retirement plan for the parents, and that was a big reason why they had as big of families as possible. Free labor when they're big enough to work and a nice pension plan when you get old.

@Gr3nadgr3gory In the West, you can retire fairly young and financially secure, without children. In fact, children kind of hold you back from setting aside enough to retire on.

@Elennar29 Most people don't judge that way. And being a home-maker isn't the same as just finding a sugar daddy. Let me put it this way: If you cook, clean, and do laundry, you're not a gold-digger. And the stay-at-home mom or dad provide upwards of $50,000/year in services to the household, if they're doing it right. I think we're well into the generations of men who'd be very happy staying at home, if they could find a woman willing to bring home the bread. In another 10 years or so, traditional female roles will be en vogue, as women start to realize that "being the man" is no bed of roses. You put up with a lot of BS from bosses and customers to bring that bread home. Way more fun to plant carrots or can the fruit off your trees, and you're the boss!

@malcomyoung2240 It's why their men are so soft.

Nothing wrong with "would've" and "could've." The problem is "would of" and "could of" which they sound like, but aren't really English phrases.

I was laid up long enough I got used to not getting dressed for the world every day or even wearing shoes every day. There's much to recommend it. Same shirt I wore yesterday? Doesn't smell? Nobody at work to judge me? I'm cool with that. If you wear the same shirt two days in a row at work, that's not cool. You end up doing a lot more laundry when you're not barefoot at home. I'll never know the pregnant part, but I definitely recommend tricking your bestie into going to work every day while you stay home.

@thechloromancer3310 They have the biggest population in the world. They should have more billionaires. Also, staying at home or working is more of a choice in the West than a necessity, even today. Extended families seem great, and in many ways they are, but the vast majority of them are by necessity and custom. A big reason why you don't see grandparents living with their kids is because when you don't HAVE to, you usually will decide NOT to. Rudyard Kipling wrote about extended families in India in the 18th/19th Centuries. The thinking, there, was that teenage girls are empty-headed and good for very little except their fertility. "STFU and make babies! Marry the man we arranged for you!" They believed that a teen-aged girl was much too young and ignorant to be given the responsibility of running a household. Typically, the grandparents would live with one of their sons, and the "evil mother-in-law" phase is something all young mothers dreaded and at the same time yearned to be the evil mother-in-law, themselves, one day, and ride roughshod over the daughter-in-law. The grandmother ran the household, and the mother was a beast of burden and child-bearing. But if they stuck it out, they would rule their own household, one day. That household would be the household of their eldest surviving son. Very similar in Japan. I still love the nuclear family unit and extended family, for various reasons, although it's full of dysfunction, too, depending on what kind of people they are. But generally, the mother-in-law is a total bitch towards the wife and runs the house. The extended family is more a necessity than a desirable thing, when you see prosperity come along and give young couples more options and their parents more options.
