[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many DCUM women will have you believe they work because they love it.

For the most part, they lie. They work because it's necessary for their family. Many would quit in a heartbeat if their financial way of life would not be affected. [/quote]

You will only see women on DCUM claiming they "love" their jobs.  It's hysterical.[/quote]

Why are you both so threatened by women who claim to like working?  For many women it may not be about loving the work, it's about getting out of the house, being forced to think and use your intellect, getting skills like public speaking, having time to yourself, having a team of colleagues, having the chance to go out for a coffee and getting paid to do all of the above.  That's me, and my actual "work" is not all that interesting, but I do like working.  If I had all day to myself while DC is in school, I'd end up doing nothing.  Many women would quit in a heartbeat for about one or two years, and then they'd realize what it means to stay home, and they'd want to work again (I know this personally).

And the fact that you think it's "hysterical."  Should all women just stay at home and never work again?  Would that make you happy if we were all like you?    [/quote]
