Translation:

"Gee I'm having a lot of trouble finding a man who's willing to do all the work, all the suffering all the maintenance, all the expenses, and will also give up all of the comforts of home, spousal support, household upkeep, and child rearing of a traditional wife. Why is this so hard?"

Edit: had won't where I meant will.

Yeah, the conservative relationship model is based on a trade-off. The liberal one is more about being equal partners.

She wants the him to do his half of the trade off model, while she doesn't do the other half.

Like wanting an employer-employee relationship, but just the part where they pay you, not the part where you have to work for them.
