Girls.. are you considering yourself to be a traditional woman or are you considering yourself to be more modern?

Depends on your definition. People have so many as to what that means. If I take the general understanding then I would fall into the modern woman category. I support myself, go to school, will have a career and want to work, etc etc. I think by most people's standards that is what a modern woman is. I wouldn't have it any other way either. I am not going to stay at home and pump out kids. I want to work and make a difference in the world in whatever way that is. I am working on my post graduate degree and have every intention on having a successful career.

If you think work is going to make you happy in the long run you are definitely going to be in for a nasty surprise sooner or later. Work isn't making people happy. Family is way more satisfying to have in your life

Most women aren’t traditional in this day and age. Traditional values, but aren’t traditional. The forefront of being a traditional woman is that you have no value outside of the family dynamic.

Why do think traditional woman have no value outside the family dynamic? I don't understand to be honest... What kind of value are you talking about because to me there is no value to be gain outside your circel of friends and family. Definitely a career isn't giving any value besides the fact that it earns you money. To me money isn't valuable at all

If there is no value outside of friends and family then a traditional man has no value because a traditional man’s role is determined by his finances. Traditional man is one who works to support the family and even in modern day, the less money a man has, the less valuable he is.

Maybe a career isn’t valuable to you because you don’t have one. But yes, money brings value. Brings respect, brings material possessions too. There is plenty of value to gain outside of friends and family called self worth. You can not discover your self if you are constantly surrounded by other people. The most valuable, respectable people are those who spend time alone discovering themselves.

Definitely a modern woman. I’ve tried the traditional thing and it’s just not for my husband and I.

[glennos89]

Fair enough if you both feel the same way about it. You guys don't wanne have children?

We’re not planning on it any time soon.
