Because it means their wife is
>always thin & hot bc she could become homeless if he leaves her
>spends all day at home raising his spawn (no chance of meeting other possible male competition or forming supportive friendships in case she needs to leave him)
>being rich enough to support a whole family on 1 income means he can do whatever he wants, including cheating or replacing his wife when she gets old
>no one to tell him what to do like a grandma/grandpa, he's the top dog in his little nuclear family in the suburbs
>don't have to "waste" money on taking care of elderly family members
Would literally rather kms than be a stay at home mom who is forced to only interact with small children for years on end. SAHM only works if you have extended female family/friends that live with you/close to you. Did they not remember what happened to upper class women in the 50's who were SAHMs and who were all drug addicted depressed and lonely? They literally shoved icepicks in their heads in some cases so they won't have to feel how depressing such a life was.
