I don't agree with this! Having a man support you and pay your way through life is just lazy!!!

Not necessarily. For example, how about a stay at home mom? Her husband or boyfriend pays for everything for her, but she spends all day looking after the kids, cooking, cleaning, and taking care of her family. Not a job for the lazy!

Well alot of woman do expect a man to make a life for them, they expect the make a life with them.
It is a strong family unit when you have a provider, a supporter, and children. Is either of the two jobs more important. NO!
A stay home wife is a miracle yet I would flip that around and say a stay home dad could be as well. Its just harder for a woman to support a family (on the norm there are exceptions).
I give my wife the option to work or not to work. Currently she is a working because we don't have kids and we aren't going to for a while because we just want to be married but my wife also agrees with me that when we have kids. If we can afford to have just one income then that is all we will have in our homes.
So again these ladies are not looking for someone to make them a life. They are looking for someone to make a life with. Big difference.

I agree with you, but a single mom, it is hard, really hard. I would love to have help, a partner, some one to support me emotionally and physically, as well as monetarly. And I would do the same for him. If you look at what women make, and what men make , you can see why women need help, especially if they have a child, or children like myself.
I make 10.00 an hour and I still have to live at home with my parents at 27, b/c I cant afford a house payment, carinsurance, utility bills, daycare, diapers, etc. I am one of those women who need help, but I am not willing to settle for money, I want a partner to go through life together being and doing everything together.

I expect my husband to pay for everything until our second child is five because I am not letting strangers raise my kids while I work and only earn enough to pay the sitter and there is nothing lazy about wanting to raise kids right. After that I will go back to work. But I must be honest here, if he ever struck it rich I would quit work and just do volunteer stuff and I would allow him the same previlege if I was ever making more money than we needed.

Your name is sick (in a good way). Anyways, some men actually wouldn't have it any other way. It's an ego thing for them. Sure, there are golddigers who just want to get a man to take care of them for the rest of their lives. But there's also those women who stay at home and raise the kids, which eliminates child care expenses and things. And some men just have the type of jobs where it's really unnecessary for the woman to work, unless she just wants to.
Must be nice. I don't have that luxury..lol.

Well if you look at the ones who are living that life take a look at them. They look real good even in their 50's. These women are called trophy wives. They dont work they play tennis and do aerobics. That is there work. Just to look good. I live in a pretty well to do suburb and I see them walking all day through our sub division. They have one child and look like they have never had any haha. If you marry a rich one you dont need to work. Hey my wife makes the money around here thats why we live where we do haha. Im self employed. My business is taking off now but I still have a lot of free time to do what I want and get on here. Peace out.............

So youre saying that because I'm a stay-at-home mother and a homemaker that I'm lazy?? LMAO!
I get up every morning at 6:30, make breakfast for my husband and daughter, clean the house, take clothes to the cleaners, run errands, grocery shop, make dinner, pay the bills.......AND somewhere in between I raise my daughter - teaching her manners and pre-school lessons. Oh yeah, I forgot about doing all the laundry.
LAZY??? My husband takes care of our family financially, but I take just as much care of our family by making our house a warm, loving, comfortable HOME.

well, it depends on the woman and the circumstances. If the woman is taking the role as the mother, housekeeper, cook, cleaner, organizer, tutor, grocery-shopper, etc. she really doesn't have time to have another FULL TIME job. this is not laziness. The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.
in that case, the husband would do his part in creating happy, healthy home.
woman who expect everything to be handed to them are morons. Every woman should be able to support herself even if she ends up not needing to.

They are socialized that they are equal, then they date and men buy them things after a while they learn men will buy them things in pursuit of what they see as sex, when a lot of times he is seeking a relationship. Also their friends compare gifts and make the lessor successful women are made to feel bad. They are unaware of what love is and think life is a game.
Long story short they are prostitutes money in exchange for goods and services.

Because deep down women know that men are supposed to provide for them and their children. This doesn't let women off the hook, however, as they have many responsibilities as well. There are a lot of deadbeat men out there. They need to have their butts kicked.
