Well, I have to admit as a man I really don't like the idea of a man having to change their children's diapers and I really do think it is a woman's job. Then I came across this verse and I thought about telling my little lady about it:
Leviticus 18:6 None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness. I am the LORD.
Am I taking this out of context? If I am wrong, aren't I at least right about men not changing diapers anyways?

yup you are taking the verse out of context. No it is not wrong to change your child's diapers. You should not have reproduced if you don't want the responsibility. If I were your "little lady" I'd introduce you to the front door. You are very wrong about men changing diapers. With your attitude you'll always just be a father never a daddy. There is a difference.

OH get a life and grow-up!! YOU SHOULD CHANGE YOUR CHILD'S DIAPER!!! What kind of "man" are you? Are you currently living in the year 2006?!! Of the all the sexist, chauvinistic, self-absorbed, egotistical loads of crap I have seen on this web site this has to rank as one of the worst! I can't believe you are quoting the bible to get out of diaper duty. If you find it, you change it. You were instrumental in bringing that child into the world you have to participate in the care & rasing of it. And like it or not that INCLUDES THE CHANGING OF DIAPERS.
I really don't think the bible was referrring to the basic act of changing diapers...I think this has a more serious issue in mind.
No one likes changing diapers...they are gross and sometimes resemble a toxic waste laced with glue. It's a joy when your children acheive potty training! And how can you truly thrill at the accomplishment if you don't share the chore?

Are you the one who did the work to cause this child into the world. I am a man and I am a great man. You are taking it out of context and making it sound what you want to hear. First of all, unless you are jew, there is no need to read the old testament, we are of the new testament. Secondly, if you have a drop of Godliness in you, you will love your child, you will oversee your childs growth, you will teach him spirtually, and you will be his(her) guide through this world. You will teach them of Gods works and show them that Gods love is all around, even on those green diaper days. Is it a mans job do change daipers? Just be thankful that you have a son(daughter) to change their diapers. So many people try for years and so many men would give up a lot more than what you are to have that chance. Also be thankful for a wife who would put up with your self esteem. If you think it is below you to change a dirty diaper, then ask God if is below Him to show you mercy on His day of judgement. Love your child, embrace him with Gods love that was given to you.

You are definitely taking this out of context. It means not to uncover them in a sexual manner. It doesn't matter whose "job" it is. If the child's diaper needs to be changed, change it! It is your responsibility as a parent to give that child everything he/she needs. That child is completely dependent on his/her parents for everything, including a clean bottom. Get over your male chauvinist pig routine and change the diaper!

No, that is not what Leviticus 18:6 means. You need to help change the diapers! It is not a womens job!

First, hit yourself with a hammer, right between the eyes. Now maybe things will look clearer to you. Are you trying to say that single male parents are all going to burn in H*ll? Of course you are taking it out of context.
My wife had emergency surgery shortly after our daughter was born and I was alone to take care of her.
I kinda like people like you tho. I was at Wal Mart with my baby girl and I asked where the changing room was at. This little old lady (about 85) told me that I was not allowed to change my daughter as I was male and she was female. She then had the nerve to place her hands on my daughter and tried to take her out of my arms. A kind woman (about my age 35) took the lady by her shoulder and pulled her back (gently of course) and told her she would take care of it.
Wal Mart settled with me (it was an EMPLOYEE who tried to take my daughter away from me) for $1000.00 the approximate cost of diapers and wipes for the first year.
I have another baby on the way.. where do you work?

nicely then somebody would desire to call the law enforcement officials on me for changing my sons diaper each and every of the time... i think of its only stupid. of direction the father greater proper help substitute his daughters diaper. there's no longer something ill or extraordinary approximately that for the duration of any respect. If that became the case then the father would desire to never be left on my own along with his lady descendant.

Dude it is perfectly fine for a man to change their childs diapers. What that bible verse is refering to is concerning sexual assualt on children.
Now if you are having a problem with sexual assualt on children and such then yeah thats when its wrong for you to change the diaper, you need to seek help at this point.
If a woman can do it a man can do it.
