I've been in a stable, male lead relationship for about a decade now. The terms have changed over the years; head-of-household, taken-in-hand, TRP, etc but the root concepts are the same. The man should act as a man of the house and be in control of both his domain and himself. The woman actively works to provide the man with all the love and support necessary to help him conqueror the world so he's successful which helps strengthen his ego and which is good for the family. Each know their roles and capitalize on their strengths for the good of all.

I've seen too many relationships fail because both partners are actively working around the middle. Both trying to be the bread-winners, cooks, maids, decision makers, planners, etc. It doesn't work. If the environment doesn't make the man feel like a man, everyone will loose. Even those men that haven't truly found their inner manly man yet will eventually feel like there's something missing and will not feel satisfied.

Don't so much have a question as want to hear feedback from others on how they've been able to make their TRP relationships work and want to thank the TRP women who get us and make us stronger.
