[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually think your knee jerk rejection of trad wife contributes to how we got here.
I’m a Gen Xer and feminism used to be all about promoting CHOICES for women and not bashing one choice in favor of another.
But if a choice doesn’t work for you HEB it’s okay ti say that without the disclaimer that you aren’t a “trad wife” propagandist.

Sometimes you really can’t have it all. At least not at the same time. So it’s all about prioritizing g what’s important to you.[/quote]

Choice feminism has always been BS. Feminism is the political, social, and economic equality of women. If that’s not what you want for yourself, fine, but don’t pretend that serving your husband while depending on him financially is a feminist act. [/quote]

Nope. Feminism is defined by opening up possible life choices for women. If a man and woman team up and decide to allocate their marital income so the woman stays home, that’s a perfectly valid life choice.[/quote]

But not a feminist choice.[/quote]

Just out of curiosity, is it a “feminist choice” to work 80 hours a week and pay a team of barely-speak-English, desperate immigrant women less than a living wage (but that’s the market, right?) to serve you and and your husband and raise your kids for you, all while depending on you financially?[/quote]

No one's making you have children. If you can't do it ethically and in a socially responsible way, maybe don't have them?[/quote][/quote] Oh so now the only feminist and socially and ethical choice is to work a ton and have no children at all. And therefore, it’s fairly pointless to be married because let’s face it, you’ll end up in this forum crying about being cheated on or doing the cheating yourself eventually.

Wow, sounds like such an array of choices.[/quote]

Wow, huge, irrelevant leaps from being childfree to being cheated on. I hope your children have a more logical mind than you do. [/quote]

Is it absolutely NOT a leap to go from working 80 hours a week as a dual married couple and having your relationship (if you even have time for one at that point) completely fall apart in a variety of ways. Most commonly by cheating. Or maybe you are new to touring this forum?

Most people are not cheaters. You have a warped perspective from spending far too much time on here. Maybe you should get a job. [/quote]
