There is also an element of truth for another reason.If women are starting to take up jobs outside the roles they have traditionally taken (and I say jolly good that they are), then those jobs are no longer available for the men who would have had them. As women are the new entrants into the field they will generally start at the bottom of the pile (though with any luck they will not stay there long). This means that it is the men at the bottom of the pile who are getting displaced.
It is noticeable because the women have only (relatively) recently been taking up the jobs. In a generation it will be as many women as men who are in that position.
T, not all husbands are as useless domestically as you are saying yours is!
