ar here we go.. we can talk about this all day.
lemme try to VERY concisely lay my views on this.
men's roles haven't changed. it's instilled in us that we have to
bring home the bread. we have to protect our family etc etc.
HOWEVER, women now have a choice! they can be educated and
powerful, and be a bread-winner. or they can stay at home and be a
housewife and look after the kids.
the problems arise, i feel, when women can't make up their minds
wat they wanna be. u can't have ur cake and eat it to. how to be
powerhouse woman working 14 hours a day and have kids? sure the guy
can always stay home and look after the kids, but the woman still
has to be "out of action" for a good 2 months when having the
child, and it's wise to take another 4 months off (if possible) to
nurse the newborn baby.
of course, on behalf of women, i'll have to say, some men STILL
have the old-fashioned thinking that women should be banished to
the cot and stove. these guys should wake up their idea.
so here's to guys waking up, and women making and sticking to their
decisions.
