Well, do you know how we make babies in the traditional way??? Man and woman???

so if you were to adopt as a single mum, or decide to have a child on your own, you do not need the man present in your bedroom, so you don´t actually bring something into life together?

That is what I meant, in case somebody gets up and says, no, you don´t need two persons, yesterday I went and I had it done by myself??

By the way, i sometimes have blond days too... that´s acceptable I guess.

 Well, isn´t it a FACT that the world is dominated by MEN?.. Is there any country in the wrold who has the same amount of both genders for every occupation?.. the answer is no..

we are just looking at who has the highest percentage and then rank them accordingly..

so where is the real equality?

The problem is taht we are still thinking by the male-structured values. Raising children is not something that men do much of, therefore it is not seen as a worthwhile task. The society does not value raising children as important, well-paid job (as it should be valued). Raising children IS a very important part of live and it should be given an appropriate social value, because at this point, it is seen as unpaid, ungrateful women´s work.

 Actually, I think the idea that it´s "more enlightened" for women to have outside careers is the problem. I don´t see what is wrong with a woman being a stay at home mother/wife.

There is no reason she can´t be educated, in fact she should be educated. There is a lot to learn to be an efficient and effective homemaker. In no way is it a simple task.

Creating a healthful enviornment, healthy meals and knowing some of those much maligned "old wives remedies" (from which a lot of modern medicine is indebted to) is a valuable contribution to society.

There is no reason a stay at home mother/wife can´t be a contributing member of society, particularly in light of today´s Internet options. I think we should rethink things. Why should women have to fit into the male model?

Can´t we expand and have a more evolved method. Certainly the way male careers have evloved has been to their advantage. What about females? Why try to fid a round peg in a square hole?

As for what parent is dominant, that is up to the family. Sometimes it´s the female, other times it´s the male.

Making a child is something that can be done within minutes (seconds?   ), raising one is something different to me. A gay couple (m/m of f/f) can be wonderful parents in my view and still the ´making of´ can be done traditional.... (or you go to THE bank..... )

hmmm? How did my post require that explanation?

As for "she".... I fit the role as "she" in any scenerio, so no need to explain to me what is required of "her".

I don´t see anywhere that I had said or even implied the woman should fit into the male mold. Your talking evolution of women, when we haven´t even leveled up to men yet.

 I can help you with that.. I really appreciate your situation..

What I meant was not really to say, women should be uneducated, or slaves.. but what i meant working is not everything... you can not jugde the woman equality, or happiness with having a job.

And I really don´t like the attitude of people, who work and thinks they are more worthy, more educated, more intelligent then a full time mum..

someone said once: it is my dad the head of the family but my mom is the neck,  she turns him wherever she wants

 This is from My Big Fat Greek Wedding...

 Probably far before that, I´ve heard my grandma saying it when I was a child.
