“Reality is, there can’t be two heads of a household.”

Yes, there most certainly can be. It’s called a partnership, it’s called compromising and supporting one another. In my household, neither of my parents is the head, neither tries to control the other, both try to work things out. It’s worked for 24 years and I don’t think it’s going to change anytime soon.

“And if you ARE a woman who is thinking that, guess what? You will either (a) be single for the rest of your life, or (b) be getting divorced from every man you marry!”

Or (c) a feminist that demands equality with her spouse and doesn’t buy into such bullshit gender roles i.e. my mother, or (d) a lesbian (there ARE women out there that aren’t attracted to men, believe it or not.)

“That’s where many women falter today. They don’t want to trust a man to make a decision.”

Because Bush made so many intelligent decisions during his administration, right? Maybe he could have benefited from some of Laura’s help. No, you see, if a woman is going to trust a man to make a decision, he has to prove that he’s capable of making a GOOD decision. Guess what? My dad got our family lost in France after my mom trusted him to decide which road to follow. Now we don’t let him direct us where to go when we’re in foreign countries.

“If Adam didn’t have a rib, he’d be a cripple, and wouldn’t get anything done. If a woman doesn’t have a head to support, her life feels like it’s missing something.”

Men are perfectly capable of getting things done without women just as women are perfectly capable of leading fulfilling lives without men. But when they’re together, they need to support one another if they’re going to live happily. My father wouldn’t have lead a successful military career if it wasn’t for my mother’s cooperation, just as my mother wouldn’t have become a nurse practitioner without my father’s. It’s simply the dynamics of a relationship.

“Again, that may sound sexist, but I’ve heard TOO many women say crap like: ‘I just have all this love to give, and nobody to give it to.’ That’s just Womanese for, ‘I wish I had a loving man that I could support!’”

Lord knows all the love I have to give I’d rather give to another woman, but if I did want a loving man to support, I’d rather it be a loving man willing to support me as well.
