So the hubsn is basically a 13 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 3: son who has decided, you know what, I don't feel 14 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 3: like working in this crazy rat race anymore. I'm going 15 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 3: to stay home and I'm going to take care of 16 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 3: everything in the household as though I was a husband, 17 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 3: minus the romantic parts. So he cooks, he cleans, he 18 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 3: takes out the trash, he does everything he needs to do. 19 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 4: But he's living at home rent free with mama. 20 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: Right Mama's taking care of him.

In many cases, the mother is the 23 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 2: primary breadwinner, while the son is supported financially by the parents. 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: Also factors UH contributing to this trend include economic pressures 25 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: like inflation and high housing costs. Also, some guys get 26 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 2: burned out in work. They're like, I don't want to 27 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: be in the corporate world anymore.

You basically do everything around the 33 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 5: house that you're supposed to do, but you don't get 34 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 5: any sex.

So maybe I'll be back home 41 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 2: with mo. So yeah, it's uh okay, Well, I mean 42 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 2: it's done unusual for sons and daughters to some of 43 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 2: them live at home with their parents, right of course not. 44 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: And sometimes after college they come back for a little 45 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: while and stuff like that. I mean, which I would love, 46 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: but right, yeah. 47 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 5: You know what. I used to be the opposite Danielle. 48 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 5: I used to always say, like once Kid was out 49 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 5: in the college, like no, but he's done, Like I 50 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 5: was always out of the house. But now that when 51 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 5: I see him, I always think, like, man, I wish 52 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 5: Kaid could live at home again. I would love to 53 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 5: have Kid back at home. He's my best friend. 54 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: Well, but this is like a working relationship. It's more 55 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 2: than just loafing and mooching, right, it's actually contributing. 56 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I'm assuming Froggy. 57 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 3: You want him to come home, but you still want 58 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 3: him to work and get out of the house and 59 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 3: you want him to live at home. 60 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't want him to come back home and 61 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 5: take care of everything. I don't want HM to be 62 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 5: the man of the house. 63 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 4: And I get. 64 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 3: I totally get if there's you know, a situation with 65 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 3: a husband and a wife where the wife is a 66 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 3: breadwinner and they decide, hey, this guy's going to stay 67 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 3: home and take care of the things at home, because 68 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: it makes more sense that way. 69 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 4: I get it. 70 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 3: The part that's a little weird to me is that 71 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 3: you're doing it at home with your parents, And maybe 72 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 3: it shouldn't be weird to me. 73 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 4: It doesn't affect me in any way. I'm just like, huh, 74 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 4: seems like you would want to get out of the house. 75 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: And I just think it's I mean, maybe if you 76 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: need to do it for a little while, but if 77 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: you do that long term, where are you finding your 78 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: life skills out there in the world to actually get 79 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: a job, Because eventually, I think you're gonna have to 80 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: get a job. I mean, you can't do that forever. 81 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 2: But then again, as I was saying Danielle, there are 82 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 2: some guys who are just burnt out in corporate work, 83 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: the corporate world. They just don't they don't want to 84 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 2: do it anymore. This is this is their way of 85 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 2: not having to work. That way. Also, it could be 86 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: just a son who wants to mooch off mom. Right, 87 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 2: But now it has a title. 88 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 89 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: Now now it's a quote unquote trend, so it's more 90 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 2: it's more acceptable because now it's gonna end up in 91 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: the Webster's Dictionary next year. 92 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 4: It's a brand. Yeah. 93 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 2: People are texting in saying, yeah, my cousin's a hubsn 94 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: Another textasy sounds like a bunch of losers. Ah, but 95 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 2: wait here, but listen to one. I am this, but 96 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 2: I have a young child that mom helps with and 97 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 2: the child's mother is not around, but I do work. Okay, 98 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 2: that's not the same, Hubson. The most unattractive thing I've 99 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: ever heard of sounds unhealthy, this person says. But here, 100 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 2: maybe this is what you find kind of odd. This 101 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 2: person said, whoa wa, wait a minute. They're supposed to 102 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: be romanticism with being a husband. Okay, it's different, that's right. 103 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 2: Another text, grow up, get a job, get out. My 104 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: husband was to stay at home son working a night job, 105 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 2: and she helped with his kids when kids are involved. Okay, 106 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 2: that's another element. That's another level of something. Right. 107 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 3: And jobs are a totally different element of this too. 108 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 3: If you have a job and you're living at home, 109 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 3: that's wildly different than not having a job and staying 110 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 3: at home and just taking care of everything for your parents. 111 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 2: Right, your job is being at home and taking care 112 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 2: of the household. 113 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 5: Right. 114 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: God, you know what, I wish my mom was alive. 115 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: I would I would quit this job and do that, right, 116 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 2: I would be a help son. 117 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 4: Did you see the texts at the gays call this houseboy? 118 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 2: Oh my god, I need a houseboy.

Yeah, scary. 120 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 6: I feel like this goes against everything I've ever learned 121 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 6: that to strive for the best, to get out there, 122 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 6: be on your own. And I mean, I understand if 123 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 6: you want to temporarily come back to the nest and 124 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 6: maybe do all these things. But to do that and say, 125 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 6: all right, I give up, this is life. There are 126 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,239 Speaker 6: no jobs out there. I think that's a bad, bad move. 127 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: I don't know, okay, And a lot of people agree 128 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: with you, but you know you're saying just giving up. 129 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 2: We know now it has a trend name. It's not 130 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 2: giving up. It has a place in our culture. 131 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 6: Right. 132 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 2: So text with how oh listen to this?
