Ladies. Are men wrong in thinking that women in this day and age can still be housewives?

What does your core identity as women mean to you personally?
I know they're two questions, but multitasking has always been your forte

[ManOnFire]

Women can be housewives if the man can afford that and has a hell of a high paying job or inheritance. It's not wrong to want her, but you better be prepared to really take care of her. You don't have to accept a feminist career woman as you described - and neither would I - but I think in today's day and age having an absolute stay at home mom is a much harder deal.

Sadly most modern women aren't wife material and our society is crumbling because of it. Feminism was a catastrophic mistake.

[IslaTheWitch]

Women do not only have a role in the relationship. Like men, women have dreams, skills, talents, plans, and ambitions. And it happens that most of them have different skills, plans, and ambitions than spending their lives between the kitchen and laundry room.

[LazerBean]

No moreso than women are wrong in thinking men can be providers in this day and age.

And I don't know what your second means. I asked my husband and he also doesn't know what it means. Anything about our core identities and values would be no different if we had instead been born the opposite gender.

It's not that they can't be housewives, it's more a case of them believing -- and rightly so -- that they deserve much, much more respect, status and control than they've had previously.

[Asker]

Well, whoever believes wise wives aren't respected has a money-making agenda. But that another conversation.

[MMelanieM]

I find the pictures you posted a tad bit over exaggerated. Its like its one extreme or the other and I don't see an in between

[Asker]

You can define the balance if that is what you're genuinely about as a person

[MMelanieM]

I fell things can be healthy if 2 people can find a harmonious balance in their relationship and I believe that respect towards one another should be the cornerstone for anything positive to grow between them. For a couple running a household, they should compliment each other. We are today's people with dreams, vision & have independence to choose how we want to live our life irrespective of man or woman. If she chooses to be a housewife and the man fully supports it, then great!!! But the man should be prepared to work hard and provide for 2 or the household. The man should be ready to take on that commitment & responsibility. If he is confident in himself genuinely holding that capacity, then surely you can let your wife choose to be a housewife (as long as its her choice). Its about the understanding that they have between one and other with the due respect. And sometimes, life throws hurdles where a man or woman might have to choose to stay home and its their call. And the call that they choose to make is to ultimately balance something out based on their strengths and weakness, that they need to face. Life is a roller coaster after all.

That's fair enough. In the ideal world, that is how it should be. But in the real world, it is profitable to stir between men and women and confuse their roles. In the real world, respect has become rare between women and men. Everyone is out for themselves, and all of that is a product of toxic feminism which profit from breakups. But what you wrote is reasonable, and you're sweet to put it across that way.

[MMelanieM]

Please do educate me on the profitable factor. Cause when I feel violated in anyway, I get anxiety and that disturbs a whole lot of other things. So I go with the flow when my energy isn't tampered with too much, cause I have been burnt in all sorts of ways, hence I pay attention to peace, respect and not stiring my energy too much. And true, everyone is out there for themselves, hence why we have boundaries and allowing the other person how to approach us. What is toxic feminism according to your take?

Thanks for your kind response

[Asker]

What makes you feel violated? 🤔 are you, or do you identify as feminist?
Toxic Feminism is empowering women to no longer adhere to traditional family values and compete with men. The companies that push for these ideas, do it for profit and use women as commodities and men as the paying consumers.

Not a lady, but yes. Mine's like a maid if I let her be.
