Wife's Earnings

Sometimes I wonder if women have brought it upon themselves .. society and religion told us both genders are equal but have different roles …Men provide financial and general security to the family and the wife looks after the home and the kids ..

But us ladies started a war on equality , where WE chose the equality measurement and believed that WE work and earn just like them men. In return we expected Men to do the house hold chores …

We ignored that perhaps we are going against the basic nature of men and women by expecting each other to take on the opposite roles .. a man will never nurture a kid like a woman will , nor will he want to make a house a home the same way as a woman will … similarly there is a limitation of stress a woman can take at work or else her health suffers .. She cannot provide physical security to her family just as a man can.

Now , amidst this confusing identity crisis of men and women , some women went astray in looking for materialistic elements in a man for marriage , expecting him to be earning a high salary, handsome as a prince , provide her security yet help her around with the home making and cook and do all the girly jobs as well … they are looking for perfection in a man wanting him to be hard and soft at the same time.

Similarly a certain group of men have evolved into materialistic beings , wanting their women to work for money, because it is impossible to run a household on a single salary … an excuse much used these days … they expect women to work AND look after the home and still not get tired … the same , expecting them to be hard and soft at the same time.

Who is to blame? Just men ? or Just women? .. I think we all have a hand in it … societies are made by individuals and our preferences of how we live our life … We have shaped out society over the years to create more of confused genders … and now we are complaining about it:smack: ..Simple realization is that no one is perfect , no one can be soft and hard at the same time.

Love your analysis and couldn’t agree more !!
