Why Millennial Men Want Old-School Marriages

This is a really interesting article about millennial men and their conceptions of marriage. Apparently, millennial men are increasingly seeking stay-at-home wives. It explains this by contextualizing some of the recent themes we've talked about in class, such as the increasing success of women in the workforce. Another explanation is "pragmatic" issues, such as the lack of family leaves. (Of course, even if this is true, why can't men be stay-at-home dads while their wives work?)

I also wonder what this says about common liberal understandings of progress?
