how many out there belive that a womans place is in the home?

Question

cooking and cleaning and looking after her husband and children is that what you think a womans life should be hmmm?

ok some of think that i think this and thats why i asked but i completely disagrre and think that in this day and age a woman can do whatever she wants as long as she is happy

Answer 1

Personally I am not fully decided either way, I do not think a woman should be made to go out and work, nor do I think they should stay at home and cook, clean and look after children etc. I think that women should be pampered, have lots of retail therapy and mainly enjoy themselves, but don't get me wrong, if working is what a woman wants to do then I would not want to stop her, I would just want my wife or girlfriend to be happy. Also, if anyone could please help with my question in love I would be very grateful, search 'grand gesture' or click my name for more details.

Answer 2

With my first two sons I stayed home and was a "dutifull" wife and mother and didn't think about working until they were in school. But when my third son was born many years later, one income was not enough so I went to work. I loved working and still being a wife and mother. But I do believe when a woman works outside the home, both the man and and the woman should share in the household chores and the upbringing of the children. I am now back to being a housewife and find it also very fulfilling. People tend to forget that being a wife and mother is definately a full-time and demanding job. But at times I do miss the friendships made from working outside the home and being around other adults. So I guess my answer would be.....a womans place is where ever she is happiest!!

Answer 3

I know the PC thing to say is "No of course not, a woman has every right to pursue any life career she wants, she can do anything a man can do, women are wonderful well rounded underappreciated and frankly better in each and every way imaginable over......yadda yadda yadda" that's the safe answer we all like to rhyme off cuz it'l earn us browny points but frankly the only people who give two buckets of kippers about what women do with their time is..........women.

Ladies we don't, and never really did, care what ya did with your lives, it doesn't really make a pick of difference to us in the long run. There's no need for the big revolution, there'e no need to get on the offensive and start taking names cuz we never felt that strongly on the issue to begin with and still don't. So if you wanna go to war and fight, by all means go and fight, wanna be a fireman.....firelady? Go and do it, don't wanna be in the home? then don't, it's not a big deal.

In fact on our "Scale of Important Issues That Men Spend Time Thinking About" Vol III, purposfully opposing a woman from leaving home and getting a job ranks just above why "David Hasselhof is allowed to be a pop star" and just below certain foods.

Just thought you should know

Answer 4

I think so if the man is rich and there is no financial need to go to work.

I think the children need the mother at home and that will help them. Its not that bad. They can go out with friends at daytime when the children go to school. I am a man but I love children. The only thing I ask to god is to give me more time with my children and I think for me being with my kids is paradise.

She can be the boss of the house and be there when the husband arrives in the evening and they can have a good time. If she is working then she will not have time for anything and will always be in a rush.

If the husband is rich then I think she should stay at home.

My wife stays at home. She looks after the house and three days a week in the evenings she goes with her friends and she is always there at home by six in the evening and she looks after the kids very well.

If the situation is financially bad, then I suggest they go to work

Answer 5

that's why brides wear white. It matches the washing machine and sink :-)

Seriously, if a woman has children, they deserve to have their mother with them. To produce kids then farm them out to somebody who doesn't know or truly care about them. Not good.
Until I was 16, I never had a door key - it wasn't needed as my mother was always in the home. Apart from the social aspect, looking after a reasonable home is a full time task. So, it's not that a woman doesn't work - she probably does a damn sight more than her man, poorer paid and often unpleasant as well.

Another thought - If people can't afford a home and to live respectably, then perhaps they shouldn't have children. Kids have needs and if you can't suppply them - well the answer's obvious.
A family's first responsibility is to their children.

Answer 6

Of course not,
Sure a woman should look after her husband and children and take care of the house but I honestly disagree that that's all their life should be about

This has being the course of many problems in the family. Where the wife's without a real life. The man feels he can push her around and do whatever he likes. Trust me it doesn't matter whether theirs love - its always a possiblity.

Besides, Women are also individuals with the free will to pursue their dreams, become somebody, somebody that we guys can be proud of.

Answer 7

I think it's a rather expensive luxury these days.
The cost of living and the poor pay offered by many UK employers has meant many wife's have to carry on working.The traditional well paid jobs that used to be available for men have largely gone.
If we had kept with the tradition that when women got married, they stayed home to to run the house, the people in work would be paid more as there would be less people available for work.
There are other benefits to women being at home to bring up children too.
A modern take on this is the partner who earns the least should be the one to stay home, as to be fair to the ladies.

Answer 8

No way. A woman's life should be whatever she makes it. Not only do I refuse to stay at home, but I refuse to have a husband and children. This is 2006, people. Anyone who buys into that paleo-conservative notion is in dire need of a reality check.

Answer 9

well there's some truth in this post....a woman should be treated as an equal...not made to stay home and cater for all unsaundry....she is a mother, so therefore, she has to take care of her own, if she is with a man who THINKS this is her place then she is daft enough to tolerate that....but being a mother myself, i know my place, and it certainly is NOT in the kitchen, i do my bit i clean i Cook, but i am not chained to the sink...yes we all have to look after our families, but it's a 2 person job and not just for the woman...i have educated my sons who are now grown and if there are prepared to make babies and get a home then they too should know their place....it takes 2

Answer 10

Different women have different aspirations in life, there are, in fact, some women who would choose to stay in the house and look after the kids etc... but a lot of women these days actually prefer to get a career in life, there are in fact more rich women than there are men and thats how life goes. (betcha didnt know that eh?)
Just because traditionally women were made to stay at the house doesnt mean the tradition has to be kept that way.
Rules were made to be broken remember? =)
