>Everything I have ever heard indicates they typically sit on their ass, play video games and can't be bothered to cook. She works all day and then goes home and also cooks dinner. You make bizarre, unfounded generalisations like that and then accuse me of having baggage?

That is not a bizarre, unfounded generalization. I did say "typically" and it is based in part on having known a number of women in my life who actually were the primary provider and could not get their man to do shit all at home, even when he was unemployed. http://micheleincalifornia.blogspot.com/2016/11/imperfect-reflections-pt-2-women-of.html http://micheleincalifornia.blogspot.com/2016/11/imperfect-re... http://micheleincalifornia.blogspot.com/2015/12/how-i-got-man-to-do-womens-work-and.html http://micheleincalifornia.blogspot.com/2015/12/how-i-got-ma... So if you can't come back with genuine and respectful engagement, then I am done here. Because your remarks look like they are in no way in good faith.

  You keep saying that, but I've done nothing other than engage with you respectfully. You're the one who has sworn at me, accused me of having "baggage" and made sexist generalisations about my gender. The feeling is mutual, I'm done as well.

  I think you had a lot of bad luck (and know people with bad luck) with finding the right life-partner and sincerely hope it doesn't permanently jade you for the rest of your life with your view on men. There are plenty of capable, willing, unlazy Super Dads out there (or super-husbands for those without kids) to combat the bad ones. The gross generalizations made here just completely turn me off from the rest of this conversation. I hope more people got a better idea of what's happening with the older comments made.

    I think people who feel the need to make gross generalizations about me and my life gratuitously (like you) are part of the problem, not part of the solution. I have put up with quite a lot of crap on HN for simply being female in an overwhelmingly male environment, I really don't get adequate credit for handling that situation diplomatically most of the time in spite of very difficult personal circumstances and I am rather aggravated at the moment at having to up with this kind of comment from people like you. Too bad, so sad that those "gross generalizations" bother you. I have reason to believe they are not inaccurate. Statistics that I have seen back them up. The degree to which women get pretty shit on by life is bothering me a helluva lot at the moment, a thing you are no doubt wholly unsympathetic to.
