[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sure this has been said by others in the thread, but it’s weird that the title refers to JUST wives and mothers. Like, if I’m a mother and stay at home, I can’t have any other identity? I can’t have other things that will my time?[/quote]
Op is quoting a tv show where this was said.[/quote]

Is the show of that sentiment? I ask because I like Kidman and had plans to watch it. I was an expat and loved that life because we really integrated with the culture and its still a big influence to my life. I don't need to endure mom bashing though, there's enough of that everywhere else.[/quote]
Sort of? You can probably find more in the expat thread, but she moves to HK for her husband and feels lost without her job. She says "I'm not [u]just[/u] a housewife!" a few times, and talks about how her friends back home are CEOs and artists etc. I'm not sure if it will become more relevant as the show goes on. Its also about the loss of a child, if that has any triggers for you. I'm quite enjoying it though.

Sorry for the derail! [/quote]
