I was an egalitarian Christian stay-at-home dad, caring for six children during my 20-year marriage. However, my in-laws, marriage counselors and church pastors were all complementarian.

I also discuss the pushback that resulted from such biblical interpretation, including and especially the rise of feminism.

Stay-at-home dads should have the Christian right to be caregivers of their children, if they choose to do so, without being threatened with divorce.
