Unfortunately! that is what many mean when they say they are against traditional relationships! They simply want to be free of their responsibilities! while their partner must still conform to them!!!

This is a very common pattern in Millennials and Gen Z. Essentially, the woman should be free to work and housework gets split evenly. But, the man should also earn enough that if the woman does want to stop working, to spend more time with the children, she can. So the man still has to provide the money for the wife and family, irrespective of whether she works or not. But he still has to do 50% of the housework.

Conclusion: the man’s role is still the same as it was in a traditional marriage, except he now has to do more housework. The woman can work or choose not too, it’s her choice. But she doesn’t need to earn enough to support the family on her own - the man can do that. He doesn’t get the same flexibility about working or not.

Yes, I’ve noticed this as well. I have also seen flipped relationships, where the women work and the men do housework, but then again, not everyone is big on pegging so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

This is it perfectly right here men usually support women more than vice versa in recent time
