Can you please set some good points why a woman should stay at home and a man should be the one working?
(It's nothing personal we had a draw, I didn't intentionally pick that side)
And oh, who earns more money in a company a man or a woman both of which has the same position. Can you please write down w/c company doesn't pay equal salary so I can rub it in my opponent's face.

1. A woman staying at home can take better care of children especially infants.

2. Pregnancy causes a lot of time lost from work.

3. Women are better home makers

4. Men usually get paid more for the same position (although finding the name of such a firm is impossible...no one wqould admit it)

5. Men are better suited physically to handle a lot of kinds of jobs (esp involving physical labor)

A woman NEEDS to stay home because who is going to raise the children? If you leave them alone they are without a doubt going to get into trouble. Where are they going to grow up and learn there morals? They are going to learn them from the street. they are not going to be healthy because since poor mother is to tired to make little billy a good home cook meal they drive over to McDonald's and feed him grade F meat and black water with sugar in it (coke). The parents, the mother doesn't have time to help billy with his homework so he barely passes school then gets a job an the same McDonald's that was poisoning his brain development. I have known many friends in both situations homemaker mother and working mother and let me tell you they are completely different. Men have a job to do too but that's a different topic. Woman, Mothers job is to raise the offspring as best as she could while the man supplies them with whatever is needed by the sweat of his brow. You say you cant afford it then, move. Nothing is more important to a mother then her child not the nice weather or beach or supermarket 5 seconds away move to a less expensive area and raise you children the right way. I could go on forever with this topic...

Well lets see if we can help you here some.
A woman can stay at home if the following conditions are in place:
Raising Children in the home
Husbands EP (Earning Potential) is greater than hers
She is supporting his career (charities, community work)

As far as salaries, it's documented that women still fall behind men in the same job. According to the US Dept of labor it averages around women making 25% less.

Hope this helped. Personally the only condition I back is the children in the home and if the wife can make more money, then the husband can stay home.

As to which specifically named company doesn't provide equality in pay for the same job, I don't think you'll find a complete answer on this board. You'd have to research the studies that have been made on that question and the findings of that research in order to get the best cross-section of evidence, leaning one way or the other.

As to whether one spouse stays at home I think that's a personal choice between the two these days. History always had the woman has the stay at home presence, but that's changed and we're in a new age. For every argument one might raise for a woman staying at home, there are likely two more arguments for why she shouldn't have to. It's just a sign of our times.

It all started when they were given the right to vote dag nabbit!

The man should work and the woman should stay at home to look after the children based on the following.

The reason why is because the majority of child custody cases go in favor of the woman. Therefore society actually believes and allows this legalized sexism to occur. Society is saying that men are more likely to earn than women. Society is saying that women are more likely to rear children therefore children in custody battles should go to the women. The man is the payer and is punished if he doesn't earn and pay. Feminists have not challenged this legalised sexism for some reason?

a good point why a woman should stay home is the women is very attractive to most men and this is a hungry world and men hit on women to make their so called busy sad lives with no affection all to easy for a man to make them cheat.. and the risk can be more as the woman is more dependant on her own instead of raising children in the home without a sitter who isnt loving the kids but chatting on line..and making a nice meal taking care of the home.. meanign the mom wife is working and the home falls apart literally.. because now women have to work as they need $...most companys pay men more accept some pay women more with ranking of position.. companys dont give out wage info.. marriott pays women more for running cerain things more than a man.. but then again it its the position. what im saying is now ppl dont make all that kind of money depending on jobs and position so women are forvced to work to pay and take care of kids and home and it is so so hard.. this makes women feel like they have to be the breadwinner and homeamker and housekeeper appointment setter take kids here and there dr;s etc and then men wonder why women are easliy swayed to want some affection from others.. as men work they complain thier to tired to eb affectionate with mate and women work outside home then in it for hrs till bed so.. ur debate is valid but also his is too. women have careers now..if they dont want children if u do u best stay home till their in kindergarten or they pick up nasty habits from sitters or day care.and men well walmart dotn pay men crap if they are a manager or any retail store so thing is go to college work at something and make sure ur woman has same goals and needs .. u cant have a functional family if both arent around. and if they are both around then both are pulling as a team for all the load.. then thats is ok..

I am all for being a SAHM. If it wasn't for the fact that I have a favorite aunt who keeps my daughter, I would stay at home. Why? Well, I will tell you-it would be as much for my own well being as my kid's.

Jobs cause stress. Even jobs that are loved (I love my job!) cause stress. Raising kids causes stress. Even if you love your kids (I love my kid!) it causes stress. Being a mother, a wife, and an employee, and a part time home maker is one hell of a burden.

My husband makes almost twice what I make. He is an electrician and I am a "radio personality". He has a college degree, I have a GED. If not for my flexible hours and the fact that I love my job, I would quit and stay home. Kids need to be with the people who can pass along morals and values. Again, I am lucky that my daughter is kept by family during the three hours a day that neither my hubby nor I can be home. She is being taught my values and my morals-not being influenced by some one who doesn't have a vested interest in her future.

AS feminist as I am - the reality is women have the capacity to take better care of kids. Especially in year 1; breastfeeding is important not only for the sustenance, but for the together time it gives a mother and child and the comfort and safety a child experiences then. And I'll tell you AT&T for all it's perks and great benefits, and very generous salaries, women still don't make nearly what men make. Now can you tell me what w/c means? It's the third time I've seen it and I can't figure it out!

In 90% of all jobs, a woman is only paid 75% (sometimes less, sometimes more) than a man is. It's slowly been rising, but it's still not equal, and it won't be for a long time.

actually Men make more in Business their their Female Counterparts ...UNLESS Sex is involved..which is Females Best weapon ..since men are visible sexual predators...and women are more Mentally... and yes a women should stay at home and a man should do the Work for money BUT i think its fair that both try for a job and whom ever gets the better paying job should work and other should just try for part-time at their job... seems fair to me...
