Would you prefer Wife as the Primary Breadwinner?

Personally I wouldn't, does that make me an asshole?

I want to be the primary breadwinner of my family as I link my masculinity with my ability to provide.

I think it will feel nice to financially provide and do things for my wife.

And if she is the Primary Breawinner then how will I enjoy the life of a breadwinner? of being a provider? of being a man?

Is this toxic masculinity? Patriarchal Mindset?Insecurity?

Its like I love eating Dosa and Idli both are nice But I will still prefer eating Dosa over Idli. Because I love Dosa more.

So in that Same way I will prefer to be the primary breadwinner, am I toxic and insecure manchild now?

I by no means want to dominate or control my partner who will earn less, (won't be primary breadwinner) All I wish is to love her and provide her and pamper her in this way, this is like my love language that's how I want to express my love.

I want to be Traditionally Masculine Man in the relationship. (No hate for the women earning more or men earning less)

Also I think if women can have the preference of having a high earning man then why can't I have the preference of being the high earning man?

This has been bugging me for months. I can't seem to understand whether it is my insecurity or my just another normal preference. So help me with it.

Women don't date men they out earn on average anyway. It tends to shake out in the way you outlined most cases despite the blustering.
