See, thats the problem. You are thinking from your point of view and not from anyone elses. It's what will work for BOTH parties, not just you.

NO..he's not right because he's thinking from a selfish point of view. He is constantly telling someone what their "role" should be but yet he doesn't know his.

a "real woman" is that "real woman" before a man and children are even in the equation. so how does the way a woman takes care of her family define how much of a real woman she is... :???:
I used the family situation only b/c the topic was about career vs. housewife, implying the woman had a family already. So if the woman didn't have a family, the comment wouldn't be applicable at all.

Well, i can't argue with your statement about him. :???: Maybe if the comment had come from someone else it might not have been taken as so offensive.

*Sedi* Asking me the definition of a woman is really hard. There's so many examples that you can use, but if you say "this certain thing is a real woman", it's false, b/c there's real women all over the place. A real woman is just a woman who believes in what she believes in, and sticks by it to me, and a person who doesn't run from her problems no matter what they are. But, when you get a family involved, your focus has to shift from being all about you to being all about your family as a whole, and you being the last person in your order of importance. I really just think the phrase, "a real woman", is what separates a person who still thinks like a girl, to a person who thinks as a woman.

sorry Sedi.... :-D ok. im liking your definition, but this doesn't really sound like what demmeri was implying. i will probably put my husband before me, but not because i'm supposed to. only because if i really love him that what i would want to do...

See... what does that mean?!?!? Most women make more than their counterparts nowadays. Yes, i read that in an article that black women with degrees make more than white/latin women and NOW black men. So, let me know what you will do if your wife makes more than you?? Will that bother you?

Wow, I don't know if u even realized or were trying to but you basically just summed up everything i was trying to say with that one little sentence . "Putting the people you love before yourself." :-)

to be a real man, i'd have to do what i have to do in order to make more money...go back to school whatnot...naw nevamind... well, i'd make up for it by doing more things around the house...cooking, cleaning, fixing up stuff...i'd continue to do anything around the house that my wife can't do....i dunno i'd have to do something in order to take command of my household and to make sure that i always have the repect of those who live there... sure she can make more money, but i'd have to do whatever i'd have to do to get that repect as head of household...(not neccesaarily the main finanicial provider...the crap you put on income tax)..
