I don't get marriage these days.
women want equal access to education and work and wages........
they put a lot of men out of work doing so........
then they want rings and romance and restaurants in bulk......
if women want equal access to wages, then they need to accept equal access to the responsibility of providing for the household....
WW I think most of the responses are in response to the very general statements you made here whch implied that ALL women are unreasonable demanding creatures and you then dug yourself in further with further posts.
Personally I just don't get the "us versus them" argument that comes up in regards to men and women. Ok so you had a bad experience? Don't use that to generalise to the whole group. You have met women on somersoft who are very willing to step up to the plate but I don't see you taking that example and generalising that to the general population. Oh no that would be an exception to the rule right?
For those of us in partnership where we value each others contributions without keeping score cards, and celebrate and respect our differences this pointing and accusing just looks plain silly.
