I would say that is partly true. I know I don't want to support a grown man for the rest of my life*. However, it doesn't mean I am looking for Donald Trump either. I don't think that I need a guy to provide me with security since I've done that pretty well for myself. I just want him to be amenable to hard work and supporting himself as well as contributing to a shared household.

*This is not to say that I would have a problem with a stay-at-home-dad situation if he's actually taking good care of the kids and the house.
