Ouch
Ouch BoP.
I could say something mean, but I won't, I don't want TO many enemy's here. Okay Well, I know this probably isn't the place for jokes, but since alfro so kindly entered one, I feel I must also. A Real Ball Buster "Doc," says Steve, "I want to be castrated." "What on earth for?" asks the doctor in amazement. "It's something I've been thinking about for a long time and I want to have it done" replies Steve. "But have you thought it through properly?" asks the doctor, "It's a very serious operation and once it's done, there's no going back. It will change your life forever!" "I'm aware of that and you're not going to change my mind -- either you book me in to be castrated or I'll simply go to another doctor." "Well, OK.", says the doctor, "But it's against my better judgment!" So Steve has his operation, and the next day he is up and walking very slowly, legs apart, down the hospital corridor with his drip stand. Heading towards him is another patient, who is walking exactly the same way. "Hi there," says Steve,"It looks as if you've just had the same operation as me." "Well," said the patient, "I finally decided after 37 years of life that I would like to be circumcised." Steve stared at him in horror and screamed, "****! THAT'S the word!” I found that extremely funny...

10 Things Men Won't Say Let's watch Lifetime! Sex is overrated. I don't want to go too far on the first date. Yes, I did notice your sister's breasts are bigger than yours. There is nothing I like better than crawling into bed with a good book. I'm glad I don't have a large penis. My hips are too big. Aw, can't we watch Oprah? Does this suit make me look fat? I'll never get tired listening to Celine Dion. Is this more to your taste?

Lol! (I have no views about feminism because it doesn't have a place in my mind, even though I benefit from the people who worked for equality. I honestly think a woman's job is to raise her children to be moral. And...to raise her husband as well )

Children are more rounded when both parents participate in all aspects of child rearing, IMHO.

yes, I know this, but I think the MAN should work, and the women stay at home (in the pleasantville world)

Indeed.
If childrearing were the exclusive domain and responsibility of the mother, then one could argue that fathers are superfluous. I don't think this is the case. I'm glad my father is still around and his support and encouragement has made a big difference. That said, I have so much admiration for all those single mothers and single fathers who have to work so hard to play the role of two parents for their kid. I've seen some people trying to balance work, school, and kids (essentially 3 full time jobs) and it just puts me to shame. I wouldn't want to make them feel guilty. However, the difficulty of raising a kid by yourself, whether you are the mother or father, should highlight the significance of the roles that both parents play. Perhaps one could rephrase that "a mother's job - not all women are or will be mothers,after all - is to raise her children to be moral. And that this is also the job of the father." |

I believe that you are as feminine as you want to be. A little bit of class can take you as far as a lot of pushing and demanding. Feminism can be good, but it can also be bad. When it becomes 'Give me this, and do it because I'm a woman' instead of 'I'm a woman, I'll work hard to get what I deserve' it's a bad thing. Unless it's an epideral, and then baby, demand it.
As for parenting and working, I think it is more beneficial for the children if the mother is at home, but that doesn't mean that the woman can't work out of the home, or if their child is in school to work like part time. I plan to have a career before I have children, so I get the best of both worlds. I also think that the man should be responsible in raising children as well. That way both parents are equal in well, parenting. Where one parent doesn't become the 'bad guy' and the other the 'good guy'.

I agree. Just throw out this whole need to be "feminine". Instead, strive to act classy and considerate, and the rest will follow. Everyone develops their own style, irrespective of societal preconceptions about what is considered "feminine" and what is considered "masculine". Just be a person. You'll be happier for it.
With respect of who stays at home and who works outside, for the record, both my parents work. When I was little, my mother worked 2 jobs to pay for my father to go to grad school while also going to school so that she could eventually get a better job than the ones she was currently working. My father was, as mentioned, in grad school, and grad students have traditionally kept horrendous working hours and have very high stress levels. Eventually, my mother got the better job, but in my elementary school years, it required her to do night shifts (you always have to start at the bottom and work your way up ), so she often wasn't home when I was home from school. I never felt neglected. And I think that it was 1) They were always loving and supportive and involved with the little time that they had, and 2) The worked well together as a team to raise me. The sharing of all aspects of childrearing meant that both parents were involved in my economic and emotional well-being. And even kids can sense that. Children will respond better if the parents have the attitude that "I'm doing this because I love my kid and want the best for them"- which implies flexibility and dedication, than "I do this because it's my place as a man/woman" - which implies duty and rigidity. |
