I was really, really lucky, is all I have to say.
Thank you Sweetie for marrying into a family of strong women and encouraging our daughters to be the same..

And our society has never been worse off.
Each sex has their strengths and weaknesses. We should be modeling society to take advantage of those strengths and weaknesses...but we don't...we create "one size fits all" and "zero tolerance" and screw everything up.
Life and society WAS better in the past when we had defined roles. It's why girls really do prefer dolls and dressing up to the guns and construction sets that boys adore.
We're a product of marketing. They've marketed that idea that everyone needs to work to have bigger and better everything...and a new one every year. They've marketed debt slavery to the masses and the masses have eaten it up. Because they get to have more "stuff".
What's the percentage of children being "raised" by some barely cognizant foreigner to whom english is a second language getting minimum wage? It's too high!
IMO, many women have relegated their natural responsibility to their child for a paycheck so they can go on vacation and eat out.
Also IMO, women
can have a career...until they have a child...and from that point on...that child is their #1 priority. And it's the mans job to provide everything she needs to accomplish that duty.
Yes, I'm "old fashioned", but that's the way nature intended it to be. It's why we "pair up". It's why marriage was invented. Two people in a symbiosis, all designed for the welfare of their children. Each doing what they've been designed by nature to do. It's not complicated...we make it complicated.
