this is a scientific fact

society is also better off with women being homemakers

^

What about the case where a women has to work for income, either to support just herself or her children. If her role is to take care of the children wouldn't ensuring there's money to feed the kids and pay for rent be part of that?

@Alexander Ramsey “better” is completely subjective and useless in an argument like this

So you can’t scientifically prove that

I guess you could argue that it could be proven that women would be happier, but even then there’s no way that could ever be universal so you’re just left with “ most women would be happy staying at home”

But even if you could prove that

Being happier isn’t intrinsically better

If that’s all there was people would just say “ it’s scientifically proven if you buy like a ton of cocaine and overdose on all of it in a day, that’s scientifically the best use of your time “

And “society being better off” also is again subjective

If there was an objectively “better” way to do society

We wouldn’t call it the Right and the Left

We’d call it the Correct and the Wrong

But society and reality don’t work like that

The stats prove woman have been getting unhappier since joining the work force. Also, divorce has sky rocketed and it is fair to say it might be a factor.

@Griselda happier lives sounds better to me

Stay at home moms have the highest happiness rates of any other career that women pursue

Children who come from families with stay at home moms are less likely to be involved in crime, do better in school, and lead more successful lives in general

That sounds like a net benefit to society to me

Yeah I’m agreeing that most of that stuff is better

I guess I was more arguing semantics

So that was just a flaw on my part

Oops

@Alexander Ramsey

I think the question is worded poorly

It’s wether they should do both or should be required to choose

That’s kind of a false dichotomy

A better question would be

Should they do both or shouldn’t they do both

Not should they do both or should they not have a say

Because there are so many in between

I think most people would understand single mothers, single woman, and married woman without children working. As a SAHM myself we have many things that will need to change in order for the majority of women to stay home.

Single mothers are the product of a dysfunctional society

net drain too

The majority of single mothers are on welfare

and their kids are more likely to become criminals and feed off welfare as well

The majority are minorities
