[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe having to excel in two spheres (work and home) is easier for women, on avg, and harder for men, on avg. Combine that with the fact that women, on average, don't withhold sex until marriage, you're going to see an increasing number of males not striving to be the best version of themselves.

If the past 50 years can be considered a success for women, someone else is going to be less successful. Social and political revolutions always have knock on effects.

Financial independence is nothing to sneer at, but there are always going to be trade offs and making men less essential could very well mean that their incentives to fulfill our ideals as husband's as father's have been cratered.[/quote]

Hold on.  So women, who only recently got the right to work and to exist independently outside of a man, picked up the skill of multi-tasking through osmosis while men's ability to cope and do the same fell in the gutter?  And their increased ability to function took away mens' ability to function due to a limited supply?  Sure Jan.[/quote]

I think this is pretty insulting to every woman who lived before 1960. What do you think the avg woman's life was like before reliable birth control and a washing machine. Yes, I think women, on average, have always been better at multitasking then men, on avg.[/quote]

There’s “multitasking” and then there is literally fighting their way into careers that were closed to women as recently as mothers and grandmothers day, and somehow that is the less challenging task than learning to fold laundry? I think you’re doing a disservice to every woman who became a pilot, a diplomat, a judge, a surgeon in the last 40 years…[/quote]

[b]The average woman today will never become a pilot, a diplomat, a judge or a surgeon. [/b]But now it's also a hell of a lot harder for her to become a mother and wife.[/quote]

What a bleak view of both sexes.  Women can't become pilots (something they have done since at least WWI) and men are so mentally incapacitated that they can't walk and chew gum at the same time because of those dang women.[/quote]

Women pilots don’t have to be wives to become mothers. No point of being a wife to a man child if I am making $10k/flight, can afford any childcare and sleep with hot men in the cities I fly to. Why would I ? It would be a crazy idea to marry someone unequal or incapable and give him legal rights over my children, alimony and assets rights [/quote]
