Search Results: housewife traits

I've heard a lot of people talk about; whether or not women are more happy being at work than at home. And some say they feel free when they're not "confined" to their home. Others think it's a nice way to show their partner that they appreciate him taking care of the financial matters. They can make sure the house is neat and clean, always.



I wonder, if a rich guy with all the traits you want, came up to you, and asked if you would like to be at home while he works. What would you say?

The reason I say a "rich guy" is because. Since women got in the workforce, the wages have been cut in half for men. Since you've effectively added the other 50% to come work, making their labour worth less in general. The only people who can afford having a house wife, are high middle class and rich people.



So, would you want to be a housewife?

Did you know there are different types of feminism? What kind of feminism, or lack thereof, do you fall under? Don't focus too much on the titles; please read through the descriptions. I couldn't include all the types, but I chose the ones that I feel cover the most territory. Also, I tried to make descriptions that are easy to understand, so don't get too upset if they're not up to your standards. You can find more info on the Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feminist_movements_and_ideologies

Implicit - Women already have enough equality under law, and they're pretty much equal already. Feminism is exaggerated and unnecessary.

Masculinist - Men deserve more respect and should have different jobs than women. Feminist ideas negatively impact traditional ways of life.

Anarchist - Our society is a patriarchy (run by men) and is inherently unequal and rooted in history ("herstory"), politics, media and culture. It can only be overcome with dramatic change. (Also chose this if you believe in female superiority. Sorry, ran out of poll options)

Socialist - Women should break out of the traditional feminine lifestyle to become empowered. Traditional jobs and roles for women are ones of low value and lacking power (housewife, secretary, factory worker).

Womanist - Gender equality can only be achieved by asserting equality for everyone. Feminism tends to ignore or overshadow issues of race, sexuality, etc. (Chose this if you advocate for feminism for a particular culture)

Cultural - Femininity should be embraced and respected. Most gender issues come from our over-valuing masculine traits. Men and women shouldn't have to act masculine to be empowered.

Liberal - Inequality issues related to women can be fixed with activism and increasing awareness. Our current society is fully capable of having gender equality if enough people are aware and support it.
