[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I look down on women who look at their husbands as providers.[/quote]

Why? Men are unable to bear children and generally expect women to do the lion's share of child care. A man who wants a family and expects to do less than 50 percent of the care should be a good provider.

Your expectations are about three decades stale.
Get out more and see what dads are doing nowadays with their kids and at home. [/quote]

Women who denigrate the value of child rearing and home keeping are not advancing women's rights, quite the contrary.  Again, I worked the whole time my kids were young. My husband helped a lot. We had a housekeeper twice a week. It was still stressful beyond belief. This site is constantly visited by overstressed young mothers who are thinking of divorce because their husbands don't help at home or with kids.

Yep.

It is absolutely ridiculous that in this day and age, a smart woman cannot see the value of child rearing and home keeping.

sounds like a cultural and societal problem then. 
are people's jobs so inflexible that a father or mother cannot run a family well while working? are others so nasty that they try to make their competitive advantage that they will inflexibly work longer than others. [/quote]

I think the idea is to see value in both child rearing and home keeping and value in working out of the house and then choosing what works best given your needs, strengths, weaknesses, etc. One is not better than the other, and they are equally important in most cases(if you have mucho family money and see your little kids on the weekends only because you have to work, I am judging you)[/quote]
