[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Things no man is thinking: Gee, I wish I could get off this boring conference call so I could wash the cloth diapers and clean the oven. My wife is so lucky.[/quote] I'll bet you there are a good number of them who would like to have a few years to think about nothing but those things, to go to work out when the want and be freed from the breadwinner pressure.[/quote] Then they should have married a woman who has a job and split the breadwinning and the oven cleaning. The fact is that SAH is unpaid and low status, and very, very few men are going to see that as a better option than even the most tedious of paid jobs. I don't blame them! I have nothing but contempt for the women who continue to accept unpaid and low status work BECAUSE they are women and then call themselves feminists for having "chosen" this lifestyle. [/quote] I am a SAHM. I am not an Employee. I am an Employer. I employ low paid WOHMs to do domestic work at my house. I guess they are not feminists because they work for peanuts and work a low status job then? I understand from DCUM that there are three kinds of WOHMs. 1. Those who have the money to hire other poor WOHMs to do domestic labor for them. 2. Those who are not rich enough to hire these poor WOHMs and hate rich SAHMs and WOHMs. 3. And the poorest WOHMs who work in low paying jobs for others. So do we even talk of the plight of the poorest women or are we glad that they are available to become our maids? They are accepting low pay and low status so that makes them sub-humans, I suppose? :lol: [/quote] If you are a SAHM and you employ others to do domestic work, you are just lazy.[/quote] No sweetie. I am a rich SAHM with no prenup. That makes me privileged not lazy. I employ people so that they can provide for their families. Just spreading the wealth around. You should try and do the same. [/quote] I am a sweetie! Thanks for noticing. I do spread my wealth around. Thanks for that sage advice. What else do you do with your time? How do you contribute to society? You pay that domestic help a really good wage with health insurance, right? You sound privileged AND snobby for sure. [/quote]
