Traditional Marriage Roles in Modern Relationships

While Dutch moms say the key to a happy life is a part-time or no-time job, German moms find the same life stressful because they want to work. But there is a whole other type of stay-at-home moms in every developed country: those who stay, because they can afford to. They've been called jet-set moms, spending days shopping in high-end boutiques, at life-coaching classes, and traveling with Read more

What Is a Jet-Set Housewife?

Teacher Frances Childs says the teenage girls she knows want to grow up to become doctors, lawyers, and housewives. She writes in the Daily Mail today that ambitious young women realize that educated and well-off "jet-set" housewives can actually have it all. Childs claims American women would follow the lead of Dutch women, declining to work full-time and instead spending time with their Read more

What It's Like to Have a Househusband

The third most important factor in a happy marriage: sharing the housework, according to a 2007 Pew Research Center study. Yet many of the happily married women I know still gripe that their husbands don't do enough around the house. Or, they do enough, but only when they are told to. It's an ugly truth that the most liberated, headstrong women are loathe to admit. Which is why I found this Read more

Tell Mommy: Does the Term "Housewife" Offend You?

I've never been a full time stay-at-home mother (except for when I was on maternity leave), but I was raised by one and feel the sting every time I hear the term "housewife" used to describe a mom who opted out of the work force to focus on her children. The SAHM mamas I know aren't popping bonbons on the couch and watching soap operas or scrubbing the kitchen floor with a toothbrush and playing Read more

Which Real Housewives Deserve a Spin-Off?

There's no doubt that Bethenny Frankel has become a star in her own right since doing The Real Housewives of New York. I can't say I'm surprised; her dynamic personality and blunt, tell-it-like-it-is mouth is the perfect recipe for reality TV. I'm hooked on her latest series Bethenny Ever After (which airs again tonight!), but it has me thinking about the other housewives who could make a Read more
