That's new to me, SWF, that no man wants a job.
How about a mother-in-law: losing her can cause a lot of troubles, especially if you're somehow connected with her getting lost...

Ha, that's good, it would definitely work.
Wowbagger-nice solution-if you don't happen to be one.
SWF had mine covered.

I can't think of anything that fits perfectly, but I have a couple creative answers.
1. Children. Usually babies are viewed as as a hazard of sex. But once they're born, we are fiercely protective of them.
2. Homelessness. Nobody wants to be poor and homeless, but so far I have yet to meet a bum who isn't happy and who actually wants a better life.

You may not want children, but most parents become so on purpose, so no - children do not work for something no man wants.

Children! In almost 80% of the world what you said counts for blasphemy!
How about Prejudice?! Man or woman; we do not want another's prejudice (against us) but we do not want to give up ours! Most of our problems are based on this aspect!
Racism, Bigotry, Religious intolerance, etc.

I wasn't too enthusiastic until I became a father -- I love my son
I like Pericles' answer, I think it fits best.

If a man grew hair he would lose his bald head, in a way.

Maybe, but if a bona fide bald man grew hair he would make a fortune ...

I heard a good answer for this one. A law suit. Nobody wants to have one, but if you do have one, then you surely do not want to lose it.
