Maureen, GROW UP!
What I have noticed in my short time (I am only 36), is that before the feminazis- men and women (couples) faced life and the world as a team. These days, once the rose-colored obsession is gone, it becomes me against them. You have two people vying for attention and the role of wearing the pants. As a single mother- I long for the day when I can be a woman again. I WANT to serve my husband. I WANT to pour his coffee and cook his meals. I also want to hand HIM the checkbook and tell him to figure out how to pay the bills. (creative accounting, ha ha!) I was not created to play both roles! That was never God's intention for my life, nor was it the intention for my children's lives. I want a husband who serves me. But see, he serves me by being the MAN. He serves me by providing and protecting. I serve him by supporting and nurturing him. Of course men and women are equal. They are both vital, but they are DIFFERENT. The feminist movement was sold to us as freedom from bondage. What it delivered was MORE bondage. We were told this would give us more choices- it has delivered LESS choices. We are not just free to live a life with more power- we are actually living a life with less power to be happy, because we cannot possibly live up to being ALL things. We are women. Period. We have our own special traits to bring to a marriage, and he has his. True power for a woman is knowing how to change a tire if she needs to, but also having a man willing to do it for her because he loves her. Just as a man who knows how to cook a meal if he needs to, but having a wife to do it for him, because she WANTS to. These women spend their lives proving they don't need a man, and then wonder why a man is not interested in being with a woman that makes it clear that she hates the idea of needing him. Who wants to be in a relationship with someone that makes them feel like they are not needed. We ALL want to feel needed by our partner. I don't mean in a way that leaves us hopeless and vulnerable. I mean in a way that makes us BETTER. I can do a better job of raising a family with a man that loves me. I can be a better employee, employer, citizen- with a man that loves and supports me. These are the facts. Thanks to the feminazis- I feel like I have FEWER choices. I can no longer just be a woman. I am now EXPECTED, by society, to be superhuman. It is not degrading to put my fork down and get up from the table to fill my husbands tea glass- it is an HONOR. THIS is the man that loves me, adores me, and provides for me and my children. This is the man that will fight a knife-wielding intruder for my safety. This is the man that gave up the guys nights out- to be with me. I am the woman that gave up the executive board rooms to help our children with their homework. The feminists want to value their SELF AMBITION over a man and a family. Being dependent on a man is seen as weak. What man wants to be in a relationship with a woman that values her "INDEPENDENCE" over her unity with him. Especially when the truth is that SHE would not want to be with a man that values HIS independence over his unity with HER. It isn't about being equal for feminists. It is about refusing to allow themselves to be women. I am all for equal pay for equal work. I can't buy bread cheaper than he can. But I am NOT for role changes. I tell young girls all the time. BEFORE you say "I do"- ask yourself- "Is this the man I want to OBEY they rest of my life?" IF they have a problem with the word OBEY- they are NOT ready for the reality of marriage and what it takes to make a marriage work. If they have a problem with OBEYING HIM- then HE is not the right man. So if a feminist has a problem with the fact that men don't want to marry her- IT WAS HER CHOICE!Reality check time for the feminists. If she can't nurture and allow HIM to be the protector and provider- HER problem- NOT OURS. True strength, power, and self-worth comes from deep inside- not a chip on your shoulder, a title on your desk nameplate, or a number in your bank account. True happiness comes from being true to who you were created to be- not from denying it. Take it from a recovered ERA woman. Every time I mow the lawn and take out trash- I think- "Dang, I was not created to do THIS. HE was."
