"Surprisingly, views on gender norms didn't make much of a difference: On average, both men and women in the sample expected the man to pay, whether they had more traditional views of gender roles or more progressive ones."

The traditional family where the man provides and the woman takes care of the kids and household day to day is by the far the best way to operate. Its how my family runs. Yeah, that means I pay. The trick is to find a foid who can hold up her end. Housewife is actually a lot of work if you are doing it right.
