She seems kind of dumb but the article is pretty reasonable. A little chuddy of CNN to even suggest that there are women who enjoy being stay at home moms at all in current year

Idk, hard to say it's that reasonable when it doesn't spend any time at all on the effect of divorce on kids and appears to conflate being a stay-at-home mum with various forms of abuse.

Well yeah. Honestly if the roles were reversed I wouldn't enjoy their lifestyle. Sitting at home doing nothing but taking care of the kids while my wife is the sole earner would be horribly boring. I mean don't get me wrong it would be easy work but I don't have the mindset for that kind of dependency. I need to build and create things, not have my entire existence revolve around others.

But I also know guys who would be absolutely thrilled to be a "househusband" and work very hard to find a high earning woman to fill that role, so I'm not judging

You're literally building and creating humans.

And that's emotionally rewarding but not fun, at least not for me. It's important to reproduce but it's also important to have fun.
