[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does division of labor in a two adult partnership have to be SO gender-based? Women do the non-paid labor, men made the decisions that impact lots of people or make lots of money. Men have offices and staff, women wash dishes, vacuum and dress drooling toddlers. If we are actually intellectual equals, why is this not offensive? (And who thinks it is not sending negative messages, to the children growing up in such environments?)[/quote] It’s no more offensive than a division of labor in which the stay at home parent is the dad. Kids in modern America see all situations - working moms, SAHMs, moms who are older and now retired, women who are not moms. No one is living in a vacuum.[/quote]
