[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is interesting!  Noticed on the BBC site this AM that the latest trend out of Sweden is for employed women to abandon careers to become what the Swedish call  'Soft girls.'  This is the artical:

At first I was kinda horrified; NGL. But maybe this could be overall good?  Im intrigued.[/quote]
I would also be happy to quit my job if my jobs were: "grocery store, a care home and a factory", per the article.

Thankfully, I work in tech and get paid well.  I don't want to quit my job.[/quote]

That's the part we're not supposed to say out loud. A lot of these women just don't have great options to begin with. [/quote]

Did y’all know that in Sweden every single one of those jobs you listed pays a living wage?

Wonder what your plan is when your tech job goes away in the next decade…[/quote]

A living wage isn't necessarily a good wage, and the jobs listed aren't stimulating. I'd be far more inclined to want to stay home if I was making a living wage working in a factory than if I was making a good wage running a business or practicing medicine. [/quote]

Just as I thought.  You have no idea what you’re talking about.  You just reflexively look down on blue collar jobs.  Typical modern American “feminist”.[/quote]
