What do you imagine from “Mr. Mom”?

Is “Mr. Mom” a man?
Is “Mr. Mom” a woman?

Today I received an email from one of my American friends.
3.11 disaster has been on her mind all week so she wanted
to write a note to say hello.

In the latter half of the email she writes about her two trips
she is going on.

She has five children. Her oldest son lives in Hawaii.
The younger ones live with their parents.

First, she will go to Poland with her oldest daughter.
As soon as they return from Poland, she will visit her oldest
son in Hawaii.

She usually has her younger children along on the Hawaii trips
but this time she will go alone.

Her husband assures her he will try to do her job well during
her absence!

Yes, he will be “Mr. Mom"

"Mr. Mom" is 主夫 in Japanese, isn't it?

They are a nice couple.
