Am I the only one who remembers when men bit©hed constantly at women to GET A JOB!....Seems to me men always gotta have something to bit©h about...If that expression sounds familiar, it's because I borrowed it from the men... 
No, you're not the only one. I left the workforce in 2003 when I had my oldest daughter. i stayed home for four years raising and homeschooling our 4 children. Once my daughters were preschool an kindergarten ages my husband told me he wanted me to go back to work (he wanted to buy a half a million dollar home). When I didn't find a job fast enough (in his mind) he told me I was taking advantage of the situation and "his" income. I found a good job in 2007 (same one I have now). Shortly after re-entering the work force I realized I no longer had to put up with his monogamy problem and I left him. So, yes, I remember. Thank you for saying so Ruth....I could tell my story, but what I'm hearing from a lot of the men here has convinced me it would be a total waste of time...I can understand men feeling confused and scared as women become more and more independent....What I don't get is their insistence on blaming EVERYTHING on the women....For years men took advantage of the control "their" income allowed them...I don't have to list the ways, everyone knows ...Now, the more monetary independence women gain, the more control men forfeit ..It is this loss of control that throws them off balance ...Feminism is here to stay, the harder men resist, the harder women will push back... I just want to acknowledge this post. I understand what you're saying and why you don't feel comfortable sharing your story. 
Now I'm going to leave this thread permanently because reading some of the BS being posted here is making me sick. The posts by the men here are disturbing to me. The one common denominator with all of them though is that they are all over 40. So, apparently it's just old guys who carry such anger and bitterness towards women around. |

Ah ha! Over on the thread titled "Why... Oh Why" ( http://mingle2.com/topic/show/340961 ), a woman wrote, "Oh and a smart man is an epic oxymoron if there ever was one." Now that is a display of a negative attitude toward men. You're just trying to distract us so you can pull our ponytails! So, you have figured out my mode of operation. Well, as long as law enforcement never figures it out, I'm... ...err... Never mind.

This is a personal attack and has nothing to do with the topic. But, since you brought it up, why would I want to be with an obese, middle aged, used up, nagging old woman when I can have a thin, attractive 20 something with high firm breasts that'll do (not just willingly, but enthusiastically) most anything I desire sexually? I don't care how many women are laughing at me because I'm too busy making some horny, young nymphet moan and scream. And so what if it doesn't last? It's not as if these young ladies are an endangered species. Every year more turn 18 and become available. Seriously Dodo...did you just turn a blind eye to this comment? Edit to add....that men such as the one that posted that offensive remark, seem to have total disregard for the younger ladies and indeed quite possibly contribute to their negative attitude toward men later on in life with that kind of behaviour...if, of course what he says actually happens. Hardly likely though, because the young ladies i know, seem to like the tight young guys their own age that actually have abs and obliques *ahem* |

They want marriage, but don't want the woman's role in a marriage they want both roles man and woman, and that does not work for everyone. It is no longer solely the woman's role to take care of the house and children. Just as it's no longer solely the man's role to work for a living. I get that you were raised differently, but you might want to update your views a bit if possible. Though, I'm sure there are women who don't want to work and want the man to be the sole provider. I hope you can find them. It never was the sole role for a wife to look after house and children, the husband played his part but to a much lesser extent. I understand your view that wives have the right to work as much when married as they did when single, and who cares what the husband thinks or wants, and the kids , they all need to update their views because mother is Mrs 21st century. I would hope the mother and father are on the same page when it comes to work and raising kids. As I said earlier, that was the kind of household I was raised in. My father did not demand my mother stay home with the children and not work. They both worked. They both shared responsibilities. I don't see a problem with that. My suggestion to you is to make sure the woman knows in the beginning that if you were to get married, you expect her to give up her job and become a stay at home wife. If she agrees, awesome. If not, then you know she's not for you. |

Now that is a display of a negative attitude toward men. That doesn't mean all women think that way. We could point out things that men say that are similar, but would that mean all men, including yourself, thought that way? Of course not. |

Actually, I interpreted the "anger and bitterness towards women" remark as pertaining to comments made by other men. |

Did it ever occur to anyone that said 'playthings' turn into 'nagging old obese biarches' later on in life because of their encounter with leering 'old men'? |

So would you consider that a 'negative attitude' toward women?....with the intention to illicit a 'negative attitude' from women toward men?

So would you consider that a 'negative attitude' toward women? Also, Dodo, do you think Duttoneer's attitude toward women is negative? Or is that how men are supposed to think? |

A dress and a white, lace trimmed apron tied snugly around a 24 inch waist...If I remember it right, I'm pretty sure June Clever wore heels all day too.... And poor Edith!! Running back and forth, back and forth from the kitchen to the living room schlepping beer after beer to Archie...Those were the days!
