Feminist made motherhood and home making unsexy so nowadays a lot of women just feel compelled to grind themselves in the jobs they do not want to do.
Men and women are fundamentally different on biological and emotional plane. They complement each other. But instead they are being forced to compete. It's time to recognise and change this.
- maximus-decimus 4y agoI'm sure a lot of men would rather be house husbands too rather than grinding at a job they hate.
- Fricken 4y agoSeparation of gender roles is a human universal. Meaning it is a trait observable in every human society that can be observed.
- mym1990 4y agoCitation?
- sudhirc 4y agoRead history and try to find citation for the contrary of you can.
- skinnymuch 4y agoDo you think women have always been the secondary “submissive” gentile gender? There’s a lot of cultures and a lot of history. This is similar to people saying trans people have never existed. Instead of seeing the western world as abnormally sexist, homophobic, and transphobic. IE the way the British treated hijras (men identifying with feminine traits) when they took over India in the late 1800s. Before and since then (though this is affected by how awful the British were), hijras weren’t treated equally, but much better than the abusive and bigoted Europeans.
- sudhirc 4y agoWomen having equal or higher status doesn't require them to take masculine roles. Feminity is neither submissive nor inferior. I am aware of status of women in my own country India before invaders came.I won't go into the ancient history. But women like Ahilyabai Holkar, Laxmibai existed not too long ago.Both of them rose to the occassion. But my point stands that women generally do not enjoy these types of roles. Love, affection, child rearing, and home making comes more naturally to them then going out and picking fights.
- mym1990 4y agoThere are plenty of examples of matriarchal societies, both in the past and current. The problem with people like you is that you feel entitled to tell others where their place is in the world, and thank god the world is slowly turning against that kind of nonsense.

- mym1990 4y agoThank you for this!
- jokethrowaway 4y agoThat's very true but only because males are behaving more and more like females. Being a house husband doesn't bode well with psychological traits where the extremes sit in the male population (which are responsible for things like men doing all the dangerous jobs, men being most of the inmates in prisons, men being the ones most likely to die in war). I certainly hated my paternity leave and, anecdotally, I've heard from many peers who would have preferred to just work over taking care of their children. It's fine for a limited amount of time, but I can't tolerate that full time.
- gopher_space 4y ago> That's very true but only because males are behaving more and more like females. Do you think a post bellyaching about simply having a family makes you sound masculine?
- sudhirc 4y agoWhat makes you think masculanity == no emotion? Men wanting propagation of life by desiring offspring makes them not men?
- gopher_space 4y agoIt means not whining about your fundamental responsibilities in life, to start with.
- sudhirc 4y agoWhat makes you think men do that?

- sudhirc 4y agoCan you present some evidence from history or psychological evidence? Throughout the history men have fought war and died in wars. How many wars were fought by women? In modern times women are in the defense forces, how many women have chosen combat duties and made supreme sacrifices? Ofcourse there are exception.
- staticman2 4y agoMen don't want to be house husbands because they want to fight in wars? Are you a man and should I assume you signed up for every war, as your Y chromosone dictated?
- sudhirc 4y agoI am speaking about gender roles with war as an historical example. > Are you a man and should I assume you signed up for every war, as your Y chromosone dictated? Are you arguing men aren't predisposed to solve their problems physically? If this behaviour is uniformly distributed across men and women then why you don"t see equal number of crimes by either genders.
- staticman2 4y agoWe were talking about how many men today want to be a househusband. I fail to see what that has to do with historical wars. The comparison would be men today and if they are signing up for wars. Are you? If not why bring up war? Also we were talking about what men want. Does the fact men fought in wars imply they wanted to fight in wars? Did men in history during times of peace sit around saying to themself 'I hope someone starts a war so I have an excuse to stab a guy and get away from my wife and kids?' "Are you arguing men aren't predisposed to solve their problems physically?" Assuming you are a man... unless you are Tony Soprano and you go around hitting people with a baseball bat you probably don't "solve your problems physically". So why write a sentence like "Are you arguing men aren't predisposed to solve their problems physically"

This makes it sound like the world would be better off if all the men stayed home raising the kids and away from things like international relations while having the women take care of all the larger societal functions
