When Factory Jobs Vanish, Men Become Less Desirable Partners
It sounds like manufacturing jobs left, so the men have no jobs, but the women still have jobs. Yes?Why won't the men compete for the jobs the women are getting?Alternatively, the men could stay home and take care of the kids while the women work at the jobs they have, providing the stable two-parent household.It seems like a large portion of the problem is tied up in men's idea of what constitutes a "manly" role. I don't mean to trivialize the difficulty of changing one's perspective, but changing diapers has to be a better option than dying from an Oxycontin overdose doesn't it?
