I think the roles have always been there. It is part of the survival imperative, and hard wired in.
the woman has child , the child needs a lot of care for a long time, and needs protecting.
In simpler times it was enough to protect from predators and chase down fleet footed herbivores.
Then came agriculture and so we worked the fields. then civilization and many and varied work. but it is the same thing.
A man should provide for and protect his offspring and woman. Until the child has grown.
A huge amount of people then divorce.

It would be good to have a partner and both only work part time good for both.
Mutual respect is important.

Having children is tough on both sexes. But they are the important ones.
we cant escape that fact. I think you don't become a man until you realize and accept that there are more important things than your own desires.
Don't regret my marriage. she was a good wife and mother for all those years.
But the children grew and we divorced. New beginning.

Be proud Crystal. The boy starts to become a man..

Thank you, Steve. And yes, you got it completely right! Really glad that you feel that way as that can support you tremendously in your own healing. flowerforyou
And I'm happy that you're posting positively about your ex wife, that is SO important!
I even have fond memories of the man who was abusive. But we still had great moments, and through him I learnt some things about myself that were hugely important for my own growth! He doesn't know that, haha, but that doesn't matter :)
Bless you!

A mother is curious how her 28 year old son feels about the man being the breadwinner, paying for his woman's keep, and asks him -hypothetically speaking-:
Mother - Son, if you had to pay for your woman, be the breadwinner, how would you feel about that? Would you feel used as a man?

Son - I wouldn't mind if I had enough for that. I don't mind going to work and working. I like my job and going there. If my partner doesn't feel the same way I don't mind at all about her not working.

Mother is speechless and about to ask another question when her son adds:
- If nothing else I'd feel more of a man!

Mother is awed, and very proud of her son.


What exactly is the source of this story?

May I ask why? Don't you trust it?


How are we to know that it is a true story?

As if I'd make it up???? grumble

The son is my son, the mother is me. A very proud mother at that for having raised such a great man! smitten :heart:


What a wondeful son you have got! May God grant you a man who thinks and feel like your son. flowerforyou

Thank you so much!
flowerforyou :heart:

I'm totally committed to major independence
But I'm a lady through and through
I'll give them quite a battle
All that they can handle
I'll bruise some
I'll hurt some too
But oh they love to watch me strut
Oh they do respect me but
They love to watch me strut

No relationship is always 50/50 . But I am 99.9 percent sure that the men who say oh yeah I'm totally ok with the little ( or not so little lol) lady staying home while I work my azzzzzz off and to come home and find her still in her PJs lying on the couch eating bon bons and watching reality TV all day. Yeah right

I agree. I wouldn't want such a partner either.

If you do your due dilligence, and screen a partner carefully...ask questions before you start to date..then watch their behavior *while* you are dating before you get to the pooint of living together...this type thing wouldn't happen.

If they are lazy or some such...you would certainly see *some* sign of it befofe things got that far..

Indeed. I wouldn't even get involved with someone who has nothing going for themselves in life. You don't even have to meet someone to find out. Just chatting gives it away.

The guy who was my mechanic (where I was before I moved)..he was married to one of those at one time..
Said he was young, and really didn't give much thought to anything other than the sex..
(we were actually friends, we talked while he worked on my car)

Anyway...he divorced her, and got a good one..
She's a few years older than him, but...they are very happy...been married for over 10 years now..
