I cannot think of a situation where I would date someone who wanted to stay at home and not work. Since I'm not poly, it'd be unlikely that I'd date someone who was being supported by a partner.
I also think it would be a big personality clash for me. I am extremely depressed when I do not have work and generally get bored if I have more than a week of inactivity. I think it would be difficult for me to relate to someone who wanted to stay home and not work.
On the other hand, I've occasionally wondered about child-rearing. I think I might be happier to go back to work shortly after giving birth, and leave the initial child-rearing to my partner, at least in part.
