长久以来,很多国家的家庭模式都是“男主外,女主内”。如果有谁家的妻子在外挣钱养家,而丈夫在家做家务,就会有好事者说他“吃软饭”。可是到了现在,这样“女主外,男主内”的模式已经不是什么新鲜事了。男女都一样,分工各不同。很多女性都乐意做一个快乐的alpha earner。
This newly coined phrase “alpha earner” describes a growing trend where the wife becomes the bread-winner and the husband stays home to manage the children and household chores. Approximately 11 percent of marriages evolve around an alpha earner. In 30.7 percent of all marriages with a wife working outside of the home, her income exceeds that of her husband.
新兴词汇alpha earner(养家太太)描述的是妻子挣钱养家,而丈夫在家里看孩子、做家务的这样一种日趋多见现象。大约有11%的婚姻家庭是由养家太太来维持的。妻子在外工作的所有家庭中,妻子收入高于丈夫的占到了30.7%。
The trend is caused by two main factors, experts say - a growing acceptance of men as househusbands and mass redundancy of male white-collar workers from the technology, finance and media industries in the last three years.
专家表示,导致这一现象的因素主要有两个:对于男人做“家庭主夫”的日渐认可,以及过去三年里科技、金融和媒体行业针对男性白领员工的大规模裁员。
