(if they were willing, that is), and maybe that 31 year old will find a man who likes her enough to actually pay for her birth control while he is sleeping with her. i personally find it offensive that she is willing to settle for so little in a "relationship".

she did seem to manage to get someone to pay for her very expensive college tuition, i bet:

Tuition and Fees - 2011-2012
Really?
Have you been asleep for the past 50 years?
How remarkably patriarchal of you.

Just kidding. That's a story they tell now that they are grown.

But current events and government policy was dinner conversation every night. Now the grandkids do it. They care what is going on in the world. A lot more than what they are doing on Saturday night and what they are going to wear.

Actually, I was speaking about the bolded part of your statement.
I dont have a problem at all with your methods about teaching your kids, in fact, I applaud it.

What a condescending OP, even for you.

The majority of the women I talk to don't give a damn about free birth control or a whole lot of the rhetoric the talkers are using.
They care about education for their children.
They care about the economy and how far their money will go.
So even where I work will gross about equal pay. When pointed out that they already get equal pay to their male counter parts they say "Well I mean in other places." When asked what other places they don't know.
Pretty much women voters are like all others. Many depend on campaign commercials to know what is going on.
Now that is what is really sad.

I know a lot of women would say "of course we care about the economy"...... and take offense that the question was even asked. That's going to happen here. But, it's a public forum and I'm asking it anyway.

I think that there are some women out there that really couldn't care less about the state of the economy. I said "some".

What do women think about the economy?
Since they are taking up an increasing % in the work force, providing for their families, I would say that they do considerably. Talk to a female professional and you'll see some different results.

I know a female professor who was quite upset when her hubby was laid off. Women DO care about the economy---how could they not be concerned---it affects their family. He got another job in another state and they had to pull up stakes and move. At least he found another job, many can't.

I do care about jobs --- that's why I don't want to see them go overseas which Romney would only facilitate.

So then you are unaware of JEFFERY IMMELT GENERAL ELECTRIC CEO OBAMA JOB CZAR As he sends jobs overseas and pays little in taxes?

Immelt's firm stands as Exhibit A of a successful and profitable corporate America standing at the forefront of the recovery.
It also represents the archetypal company that's hoarding cash, sending jobs overseas, relying on taxpayer bailouts and paying less taxes than envisioned.

Corporates will trust an IMMELT over a politician so do you think obama does not have corporate america in his pocket he is certainly giving it a good go isn't he.

GE profited 11.6 BILLION in 2010 ..........

Yet 1 in 10 Americans are jobless............

As OBAMA STRUGGLES TO PROD BUSINESSES TO CREATE JOBS AT HOME GENERAL ELECTRIC (GE) has been busy sending jobs elsewhere to the tune of 34,000 jobs lost here by GE and it ADDED 25,000 jobs overseas...


At the end of 2009, GE employed 36,000 more people abroad than it did in the U.S. In 2000, it was nearly the opposite.

So do you mean like this???????

Please step away from the liberal talking points and get your news elsewhere........
