[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On the odd occasion when I wonder whether I would have been happier married with kids, I think about the thousands - tens of thousands? - of hours that I didn’t spend housekeeping cooking shopping laundering etc. for kids AND a grown ass man engaging in weaponized incompetence.

I wouldn’t have minded caring for kids, and I would have been teaching them the life skills early so they could pitch in and not be like their entitled daddy. I would have seethed with rage over every moment I spent doing an unfair division of household labor so my husband could buy his leisure at my expense and I would have found him physically répugnant and emotionally and intellectually uninteresting because how does one love one’s oppressor?

I don’t get how men don’t figure this out. I guess they do and just don’t care. It’s all so disgusting.

I’m a tidy person by nature and don’t mind cleaning up after myself and the dog who is always happy to give me love and affection. I cook elaborate meals when I want and have popcorn for dinner when I don’t - it’s actually a very healthy meal if you don’t drown it in butter.

[b]I’m angry that the vast majority of women have to suck up the servitude if they want kids and a dual income household. Women need to start raising better sons.[/b][/quote]

Dads have no role here? [/quote]

Apparently not in the 80% of intact families where the kids are watching Mom bust her ass day in and out to do the large majority of housework, cooking, shopping, life planning, kid wrangling, etc. while Dad sits on sofa on his phone or golfs with his pals or sits in the recliner in front of the NFL etc.

Dads who are doing Fair Play are already raising better sons by modeling grown ass full involvement in parenting and homestead keeping and marriage strengthening.
