So now everythings better because more women are in the workplace and more work is getting done towards the all important progress we are making in humanity like covering the planet in technology, cities and polution and causing all the other life forms on the planet to go extinct. Is it ok for men who are willing and able such as myself to stay home and raise the kids since they've been abandoned by their mothers who had more important things to do like, compete with men to become more like what they can't stand? Because I am absolutely certain that the raising of new human beings into the worl is a much higher art and more important responsability than having a pissing contest at your job over which gender can do it better. I'm willing to take on the more important work in life since women have abandoned it to take the place of men where the gras looked greener. It doesn't make me feel like a woman, it just makes me wonder whan women lost track of what was important and got caught up in the man game.
Real life is man's game? WTF?

So what you are saying is, society dictates that in order to be a real woman she must stick to her defined gender role which is knowing her place. She should forget about an education, stay in the kitchen, be a whore in the bedroom, have no career aspirations. Her sole purpose in life is procreation, child rearing, housework, decorating, organizing bake sales, watching Life Time TV and soap operas, and filling land fills with dirty diapers.

As a man society dictates that in order to be a real man he must stick to his defined gender role which is world dominance. In order to do this he must be physically strong, play a sport, have someone wait on him hand an foot in all domestic situations. He has to be the aggressiver in the bedroom, his career is his entire life, his children are an extension of him. His daughters are to be princesses, helpless individuals that need to be taken care of and his sons are to be warriors in battle.


Did it ever occur to you that men and women want more out of life? Think of the women artists and actresses. Do you enjoy their music or their films? Did it ever occur to you that some women and men don't want or can't have children? Did it ever occur to you that some people make crappy parents and shouldn't be able to procreate? Did it ever occur to you that one of the saddest things about being a father is when they get old they realize that they missed out all the wonderful events in their children's live because society dictates they have to be the sole wage earner? Did the thought ever occur to you the reason men die sooner than women is that they are under all this stress to be the sole wage earner? Do you consider it abandoning a child when his father goes off to war? What about if he's killed? What is a woman who has no job skills left to do? Be a victim? Allow others to pay her less than they would a man doing the same exact job? Her other option is to marry the first person she can find to help her raise that child and support her.

Is that what real life is to you?


That you may retain your self-respect, it is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right, than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong.
