		<description>The ideal situation I thought is supposed to be equality, with both partners making money, helping with housework, raising the children together etc.  How well it works out I don't know.  I didn't think many women nowadays did expect men to provide for them actually, I thought that was a thing of the past.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I never tore up any contract, a contract by definition has to be signed by both parties, when did women ever agree to be treated as second class citizens.

How many children do you know who are not being bought up by their mothers in the same way they have always done, that their mothers may have to, or want to work does not change the fact that they still undertake the care of their home and children.

A great many married women would love to be able to stay at home when their children are young, but economic pressures make this impossible.  The growth of mass consumerism giving us a population who  constantly want more and more new things is also responsible for this change in the family.

What is it you really want? to go back to a time, not that long ago when a wife who was abused was unable to get protection under the law or have a safe place for her to take herself and her children.  A time when it was almost impossible for a woman to leave an unhappy marriage because of her inability to earn a decent wage or even the same wage as a man doing the same job.  When society would condemn her as a divorced woman.  

Maybe you want to go back a bit further when a wife upon marriage gave up all rights to her own property, even down to her wages, if she had any, any right to custody of her children if she left the marital home.  

Or perhaps the time when husbands had the power of your wife so you could commit her to a mental institution if she did not behave in the way you wanted like Mrs. E.B.W. Packard who was committed to an institution by her husband, a Calvinist minister, for arguing with him about Calvinist theology and feminism.  Even far more recently the case of a woman in the 1960's who was committed by her husband and the chief complaint listed on the admitting record was: &#34;Patient does not do her housework.&#34; 

I find it sad that so many men look at feminism so negatively because the fail to see all the benefits men who embrace it now have.  The modern man has discovered the joy of being far more involved in the raising of his children.  He can make the decision to be the one who takes the career break when his children are very young,   without being thought by most of us as abnormal.  

He no longer has to bear the burden of being the sole breadwinner and in today's world where jobs are not nearly  as secure as they were previously, where a job for life was not uncommon, this has saved many families from loosing their homes.  

And best of all he has the support of an equal, who will tell him honestly when she thinks he is wrong, just as he will tell her and this is something we all need.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Men definitely need to reject the notion of chivalry, because all it is is sexism that put women on the pedestal and men at a disadvantage.  Chivalry leave men wide open to be exploited.   In fact, it is largely because of chivalry that the feminist movement has gotten so far in the first place. Feminists exploit and took advantage of chivalry.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>In many ways I have always maintained that women are actually the stronger of the two sexes.

Think about it this way.  If both of your grandparents are living and you are planning a trip to visit them, what do you say to your friends?  Do you say, &#34;I am going to grandpa's house.&#34;..?  Or, do you say, &#34;I am going to grandma's house.&#34;..?  Most folks will say it is &#34;Grandma's house&#34;.  Why is that?  Because the women are traditionally the ones that lord over the homes.

I have often said in my own family that my father was the king, while my mother was the Prime Minister.  Dad was the figurehead...and trust me, you didn't want to cross him.  On the other hand, it was my mother that took care of most of the day to day tasks...and usually had the last word and most input into important decisions.  My father could care less how his children did in school.  But, it was my mother that pushed us along...brainwashing the fact that we had to make good grades in order to get into a good college (so a college education was a foregone conclusion).  Sure enough, the idea of a good education was something that my father pushed (after my mother pushed him).

In today's so-called feminism, women have merely given-up most of the power that they had maintained.  A few decades ago, if a man got a woman pregnant, it was his responsibility to either marry the mother or at least assist financially in the upbringing of the child.  In today's society, men are free to impregnate who they wish and simply walk away from all responsibility for the child.

I have seen it way too many times...where a couple lives together and shares in paying the bills...but the man had the mortgage in his name alone.  When they broke-up, the man stays and the woman is kicked to the curb.  This &#34;living together&#34; stuff is a part of the new phenomena that came with so-called &#34;women's rights&#34;.  Fine fine.  Go ahead, pay for half of everything and get absolutely nothing when the partnership breaks-up.  I think that their grandmothers were much smarter than this.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>The only contracts that have ever mattered in relationships are the ones both of you understand and agree to the terms to. That hasn't changed.

You can't lump yourself in as a &#34;one of those guys who&#34; when it comes to relationships. You choose. You choose the women. You choose the kind of relationship you want. You find one who agrees with the kind of relationship you want. The two of you work it out. That's it.

And don't make any babies you plan to abandon in the meantime. And don't expect sympathy from people who were smart enough not to breed in unstable situations when you get caught in a mess because you decided to do it anyway.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>The women who tore up that contract are the feminists; they're the only ones. There are women who are not feminists.

All right then, for those who tore up the contract - don't honor it, for those who did not tear up the contract - honor it.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I'm a feminist, I don't believe in traditional roles for men or women. I support myself, and have been only too happy to support my partner. I think marriage is just a piece of paper, based on the way ppl act when married, it has nothing to do with commitment or monogamy. I think its up to the partners involved to decide on their commitment to each other and monogamy, and I'm not interested in a dutiful partner. I want a companion, not a dog.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
