Each marriage approaches this differently but what is most important, as far as a female supremacy marriage is concerned, is that the woman makes the decision on what she feels is the best course of action for her, her children and her marriage. Perhaps the woman will want to take a few years off from her career to be with her children while the husband picks up the extra financial slack by getting a second job. Or perhaps the woman will want to stay focused on her career and will require that her husband take a few years off from his career to raise the children. Or perhaps she will want them both to continue working and she will choose to utilize parents, babysitters or daycare. The woman should make this decision because the woman is the nurturer and she will want what is best for her children. If the husband makes this decision, he might only look at the finances.

I think it is admirable that you want to be a househusband家庭主夫 — a husband who keeps the house and a stay-at-home father but if you really want to submit to your wife, you will allow her to make the decision and you will support her decision by doing whatever it takes. And remember, all husbands should be househusbands家庭主夫 — a husband who keeps the house, even if they have careers or run businesses. All husbands should do their share of the housework and all husbands should be active fathers, in accordance with what the woman wants.
