[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1 I’m suspicious too. We’ve been sold a bad deal. Most women I know would love to be full-time homemakers raising children at home instead of laboring to help a corporation turn a meaningless profit. But it’s too late for that now. Our standard of living has now outpaced the ability to provide a “good life” on one inclome. Sadly, we’ve sealed our own feminist fate.[/quote] Pfft. Then you have to trust a man to be able to work and bring home enough money to support your lifestyle. You also have to make sure you “keep him happy at home” to ensure he doesn’t “stray” The answer doesn’t lie in going backwards, it is in more lenient hours, part-time work, more parental leave etc. This requires employers to change with the help of government. Don’t exchange one story for another one that is worse. Keep moving toward real workplace changes for BOTH genders.[/quote] +1 Why is feminism to blame when we have corporate heads getting huge bonuses and squeezing workers to work insane hours and laying them off periodically? We should all be working a 30 hour week to allow for life. It would also be better for democracy and society. The government missed an opportunity to switch a 40 hour week to a 30 hour week, when women started working.[/quote] This. Your complaint is with capitalism. But the billionaire class, mostly men, prefers you blame feminism. [/quote]
