No. It’s gender discrimination perpetuated by people who grew up with a useless father around the home.
Then again I’m a stay at home dad who raised both my daughters through infancy and adolescence so my wife could work
I have the classic “woman role”. I manage our home. She fills the bank account. Not many men willing to do it but I sure as shit will tell you other men are jealous of my lifestyle

Probably because they don't know what being a stay at home parent entails (depends on kids ages ofc). My wife is staying at home with our kids and they are all under 6. I work from home so I am able to see on a daily basis what it takes.
It's not an easy job. Your labor should be appreciated. Keep on keeping on, brother. ✊
Yeah, I'm not down for gendering jobs (like nannies or nurses) but I read that more in the context of the people who wail "not all men" all the time who are also the first to act like a penis is a weapon and that men can't be trusted. Hell, they even say trans women can't be trusted because they haver/had a penis
And I am sure that you had to earn trust and made a damn good job doing your best. That isn’t the best example in the attached text, but the best response is going to be yes, but only if they have good references, have a proven good police record (what used to be a DBS check in the UK) and comes with excellent references that can be verified. Though, to be honest I would say the same thing about anyone I trusted my children with, male or female.

As a man, I also get annoyed when people say that.
Like ... brother ... if you feel attacked when people are criticizing RAPISTS then you might be part of the problem.
