You are ready to go out for a nice meal and maybe some dancing. He wants to stay home, where you have been, and watch some TV,which you have become bored of. So, there you are after spending the whole day in that same house now staying in that same house. What do you talk about? He won't hear about how you cooked, cleaned, mended his socks and otherwise kept busy today. You try and look interested in his day, but soon you think you could be doing something else like...slamming your hand in the door. Fantasies are wonderful aren't they? Has anyone ever wondered why those TV shows only lasted a few years? The wife got fed up with the staying home and ran off with the milk man.
Right on...

And to those that would 'love' to be like this, I'm pretty sure the novelty would wear off pretty damn quick...
...and right on again!!!

Sure, the whole concept sounds like an overblown fantasy, something that would get old after a week/month, year tops. Remember, those women who are lucky enough to not have to work are doing so much more than catering to their guy. They have kids to care for, they volunteer in schools, you name it...all while maintaining a household. It's a 24/7 job, not fantasyland.

Those who may not have kids who might better fit the stereotypical fantasy likely have a half-dozen like-situated friends who are there for social interaction outside of the home. D'ya think the average transgended woman who is plugged into such a fantastical situation will have the same support network? I'm thinking not.

But as far as a dream goes, knock yourselves out. There's nothing wrong with having a little fun thinking of the "what-if's" in our lives.
