I don't know what the hell is going on but I have so many friends who are married to men who aren't working or doing anything.
I counted 10 so far and that's just the ones I know.
Woman goes out to work, pays for everything, man sits at home and does bugger all. For years.
These people are across all social classes.
Some of them are attending university but subjects that will not get them a new job at 30/40 years old.
This seems to be a new trend, the stay at home cocklodger.
I divorced my last husband for it. One day he got sacked and didn't work again. So I divorced him, I don't need excess baggage.
Anyone else know men like this?

In all seriousness, I do know various men like this (some Gen Z some Gen X), it is the disability benefits.

One Gen Z worked in my workplace, left because he didn't like having to work regularly and follow rules and will use mental health issues to get on disability benefits.

The Gen X are because they had an accident at work, and have played on it since and just lives off of the compensation payout, even though he is fully mobile and could even just get a WFH job.
