Where Full-Time Dads Are Viewed As Losers

Across the world, being a full-time Dad is more accepted than ever but there's still a stigma attached to the concept in some countries. A poll from Ipsos published earlier this year asked respondents in 27 countries "whether a man who stays home to look after his children is less of a man". In the United Kingdom and the United States, only 13 and 14 percent of people agreed with that statement respectively. In South Korea, however, full-time Dads are considered losers. A whopping 76 percent of South Koreans polled agreed with the above statement.
