Don't people consider being a housewife as an option anymore nowadays? Cause most still do end up becoming one regardless. Or am I being insensitive by saying this? I don't mean anything bad by it, but most people end up getting married, and being a housewife is a lot of work specially after you've recently become a parent, you can't really focus on a job during that time...and from either the husband taking the role of a househusband or the wife taking it, its usually the wife.
