2:53Now PlayingThese guys are total mama's boys. In this episode of "Weird But True," host Andrew Court explains a strange, new trend among Gen-Z and Millennial men. Dubbed "tradsons" or the creepier term "hub-son," these guys, typically in their 20s or 30s, live at home with their mom and dad, have no job, and gladly take on the stereotypical housewife duties. The Post spoke exclusively with two of them to find out more on this gender-flipping fad. Earlier this year, "Jeopardy!" champ Brendan Liaw went viral after identifying as a "stay-at-home son" on national television.
