I think the point is they don't have to stay in that role if they are unhappy. A lot of men seem deeply unhappy these days.
In economics, we do not say "ah, I've created a pencil. I and the consumer will accept the price point that the authority figure / government sets for it." Rather we say that an invisible hand guided by individual pursuit of self interest unintentionally leads to a positive outcome for society. Why would we accept some grouping of tasks as our prescribed roles as dictated by a tradition.
In my life I've nurtured children and the dying, I've cooked and cleaned. But I've also been the breadwinner for a household when the man of the house could not, and devoted a lot of energies to intellectual pursuits. If I had not been there and it were only men, the work of living via caretaking and hygiene would still need to be done and I would consider it a good man who is capable to adjusting to the task at hand. And was it not a good thing that the man was able to focus on a new entrepreneurship while still enjoying steak instead being limited to gruel?
If men seem so deeply unhappy then they should pursue their happiness. It does seem that instead there is a large wave of men dictating that women not pursue their happiness. If a man's happiness is so utterly dependent on women following their lead, then by all means they should lead and women will follow in pursuit of their self interest. There are two types of men in this thread, one type is considered intelligent and attractive, The other is considered angry and pitiable. Which do you think women acting in their own self interest will follow?
If there is a group adamantly insisting on blindly following an authority, are they demonstrating leadership and strength? Does the market well tolerate artificial price points or does it lead to inefficient dead weight loss?
We are all self sovereign and responsible for our own actions. We all reap what we sow. And what's for us will come to us with the grace of God 🙌
