[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are we constantly discussing women's issues in this world? Should they work? Should they stay at home? Should they be allowed the freedom to make their own choices? Should they have kids? Should they not have kids? Is there too much "pressure" on women to be perfect? On and on and on. We never talk about men's issues. Men are just expected to shut up and keep working until they die.[b] Someone will now say that men have the same choice to be a SAHP, but that's really a joke. Whether or not you have one anecdotal successful example of a man who is a stay at home dad is irrelevant[/b]. Men that don't work lose all respect from their wives and are scorned by society.  Feminists really don't care about this, despite lip service to the contrary. They want men to keep working, but mostly in construction or menial jobs. [/quote]

Do you know why it's a joke? Because sexism.  Because roles generally filled by women (homemaking, childrearing, teaching, nursing) are considered demeaning roles for men.  When there are no more smirks about male SAHPs or male nurses, we'll be able to thank feminism for that.[/quote]

It's not sexism.  It's biology.  Women give birth to babies.  Not men.  This act means women are more linked to children than men and this continues when/if they breastfeed and as they recover from childbirth.  [/quote]
