Exactly how I feel about it all too.Ameshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06277489399865186227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1567118949989447564.post-44328566065100055812010-01-31T23:49:32.772+11:002010-01-31T23:49:32.772+11:00Well put Leesa!<br />I too am, what many feminists may concider, backwards or old fashioned. My husband is the &quot;bread winner&quot;, I&#39;m a sahm. I really want a marriage in that the man &quot;wears the pants&quot;, but I do struggle to establish that here with my hubby coming from a family where the female dominated. I don&#39;t WANT to be the head of our house! But saying that doesn&#39;t mean I&#39;m wanting to be his &quot;little woman&quot;, lol.<br />In many ways I think the feminist acts have taken it past equality and turned into man hating or dominance, which has just been coming across as de-masculating/un-masculating(whatever you&#39;d call it) to the men.<br />All I want in my marriage is for my hubby to recognise that maternal parenting is a full time job, and I deserve recognition and breaks too ;) And that I&#39;m doing the best job I can, but he is welcome to get in the kitchen and make his own pie, not just wait at the dinner table to be served like husbands of the past!<br />When I tried to go back to work, I only did so because my mum was able to have our son. I&#39;d rather rent for the rest of our life though then have him in childcare and me work out of home to afford a mortgage.Rainbow JenJenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13806467318371772685noreply@blogger.com
