I just saw A Current Affair, and they were talking about how less-wealthy men weren't getting married and making children because the women weren't coupling with them. That's fair enough.

But the angle they pushed is that the women were going after the money, the way the women they were interviewing were talking, that they were looking for men to 'look after them' and to be 'financially successful'. Seriously, the whole article just showed this side of women that made my stomach turn.

The bitch-arsed editor from Cosmo sat there and happily told us that women were marrying for money, that they wanted to be wives and that it hadn't changed for hundreds of years and wouldn't ever. How could the stupid cunt say that with a smile?

These lazy, vapid, vacant, trussed up husseys made me really fucking ill.

Why don't they go out and be successful for THEMSELVES?! You don't marry someone for a fucking CAREER move, you know? FUCK. It's made me so MAD! All the women in that article were little better than prostitutes, really. Guh! Air-headed tarts.

Whatever happened to having your own life, making your own decisions, making something of your existence and CONTRIBUTING to society? We're not cattle! FUCK!

i can't remember the details, but i (again!) read somewhere a survey where women listed they were "satisfied" with their male partners' contributions to the household if they did one hour of housework a week. If they did just 20 minutes more, they earnt a report of "exceeding expectations."

Maybe women should expect more, then they might actually get it (wow, that so sounds like an old feminist slogan!)

my best friend makes her husband do chores on the weekend before he can watch the footy etc... his chores are like working in the garden, mowing the lawn, cleaning the dog shit of the back lawn, waching the car, sweeping the floor. also when he is home he is responsility to look after the older of the two kids and put the little "angel" to bed he also baths the kids... so he does alot... a lot more than the average... but she makes sure he does...

"Expect more - you might actually get it." It's something I definitely want on a t-shirt. LOL!
