Re: Venting/Dissing of spouse and inlaws
Let's do this then. Stop having any responsibilities since that is your Islamic right AND let's have your husbands decide everything for you because that is his right Islamically.
Not to mention his Islamic right to marry up to four women. ;)
My point is when it suits to some women, they bring Islam too.
Re: Venting/Dissing of spouse and inlaws
I think what kakaballi and others were trying to state when they brought up the matter of a woman's income is that many women who claim to be so secular and non-religious rather conveniently use religion when it suits their own agenda. It is this hypocrisy and cherry picking that gives men the impression that women are fickle, duplicitous creatures attempting to have our cake and eat it too.
you have yet to meet decent husbands of working mothers, then.

I have met quite a few actually. Most of the women I know in real life contribute equally to the running of their household and see this as the natural thing to do. I, myself, have never held the view that "my money is mine" or felt that the financially responsibility for our household falls solely on my husband. In fact, I've never met anyone in real life who holds this idea that "my money is mine." Quite frankly, GS is the first place where I've come across women with this mentality, which is why I find it rather odd.

According to Islam your husband can beat you with a mop-handle too.

I am not saying what I want or anything just saying what it says in Islam.

Yes, please go ahead and marry 4 women, but they have to behave and treat them fairly too. Agreed, men are allowed to keep 4 wives, it's their Islamic right.

Re: Venting/Dissing of spouse and inlaws
Pleasure to husband is actually supposed to be given when they ask for it, yes, right. Shopping etc. if they have the money, otherwise how can they shop? Actually, all this is in Islam, not my personal opinion. All housework a woman does is considered Ibadah. And yes, a man is allowed to have 4 wives, is supposed to look after his parents and a woman is supposed to do cover herself Islamically too.
So they are supposed to sit in a corner, do make up, look pretty, watch
, eat bon bons
or ...do shopping, meet friends over lunch, and give pleasure to husbands whenever they feel like. :D
Re: Venting/Dissing of spouse and inlaws
And don't diss people when they are saying what is an Islamic right. Do not also assume that they will or will not allow their husbands to have 4 wives or they will waste money on shopping. Maybe they are doing all these things as well.
Re: Venting/Dissing of spouse and inlaws
I think its fine if you confide in your super close friends but bashing your husband and in-laws to ANYONE is wrong and particularly wrong to your parents.
You should be careful what you say to your parents about your spouse - they will forgive you because you're their child but not your spouse necessarily.
