Wives Earning More Than Husbands Linked To Rising Mental Health Diagnoses In Couples
Women becoming the breadwinner of the family can result in a higher likelihood of mental health issues for both husbands and wives, research from Durham University Business School reveals. The study, conducted by Dr Demid [...]
The study, conducted by Dr Demid Getik, explores how mental health is related to income make-up within couples by examining the link between annual income rises for women and the number of clinical mental health diagnoses over a set period of time.
The study finds that as more women take on the breadwinner role in the household, the number of mental health related incidences also increases.
As wives begin earning more than their husbands, the probability of receiving a mental health diagnosis increases by as much as 8% for all those observed in the study, but by as much as 11% for the men.

Society needs to normalize households women being successful.
I wanna be a house husband so bad yo I'd be so good at it I can cook and clean good enough to please anyone's grandma and I can manage a household like a pro
Lemme stop working lemme decorate a fucking great room and meal prep for my loved ones FUCK
You can move in with me if you want lol. I hate cleaning and shit. But I'm a man and I don't make 250k that's for sure.
I'm already dating a man who swears he's gonna get me a hot tub to be sexy in, but I still gotta work. What's your offer?
No employment required but you gotta do the cleaning for me and my wife. Free room and board, and other reasonable expenses covered but we do live frugally, and you'd be expected to as well. You can fuck or decline to fuck whoever you want. No hottub though. We live in the city center and don't have space for such things.
My only problem with this personally is what if something terrible happens and the wife is no longer in the picture. Then, my house husband skills wouldn’t help me land a decent paying job.
Welcome to the reality of every stay at home mom ever
"How about I earn another $250k and we DINK our way across the globe?"
Go on......
Seriously though, I’d be absolutely fucking fine if I was a househusband.
It's not just the men suffering from this.
