I’m curious about how this is viewed in the U.S. today.

Historically, men being the primary breadwinner and women earning less (or staying home) was the norm, and deviations from that were often seen as socially uncomfortable or stigmatized. From the outside, it seems like this may be changing — women earning more than their husbands and men being stay-at-home parents appear more common and more publicly accepted.

I’m especially interested in lived experiences and how much this has genuinely shifted versus just being more acceptable in theory.
