Dew93, it's a big deal because it all comes down to men having access to women (sex) which is important in a civilized society.
Either "empowered" women need to deal with reality and give a man with lower social status a chance to court her, or prostitution needs to be legalized all while women are allowed to continue to hold out for the highest bidder.
You have some skewed views. Men should have access to sex? Weird post man.
Promotions are EXTREMELY difficult to come by, and women are paid substantially less than men because we have to 'prove' ourselves before they think we deserve it. The men, however, automatically start at a higher wage. My ex-boss openly state that he would start women off at a lower wage because they're less likely to stick around.
Jet, but you're forgetting that most men on average SPEND that extra money on women and children. This is the basis as to why men make more money then women, men simply need that extra money to take care of their families.
On the other hand, you (along with other women) want to make just as much as men, but I'm quite sure you're not going to take care of another fully grown man and pay his bills. In fact, you're not even obligated to do such a thing in order to secure a mate, unlike men, so I have no idea why you're even complaining because you have the opportunity to make decent money AND find a man to take care of you.

I love how women are summed up in the word "sex," as though that is all we are or have to offer. Nice entitlement mentality to go with, too.
Cali, men are not entitled to either women or sex, any more than women are entitled to men or sex. When it comes to relationships, no human is entitled to anything from another.
Maybe you should go live in Nevada. You can buy all the sex you can afford there, and leave the partnerships to people who understand how they work.
Are you kidding? Educated, intelligent people need to be having more children, not less. Their children do better in every measure possible. They're more involved with their kids. They give them better education and better opportunity. It's fact.
Mostly untrue. They put them in all kinds of activities to make them busy and they come off as attentive parents.
You described my father. It's a pity his involvement ended with 'You've got the money, I pay whatever you want, now don't bother me anymore.'

Apparently, that's a pervasive problem with fathers in general. Money or no money. But, statistically it's true. Finances are one of the biggest predictors of outcomes.

Come on Djuna, don't act like women don't expect things from men either. Women expect to be sheltered and protected by all men which is why women run to men, even strange men, whenever they run into a problem.
So what's the big deal about men wanting access to sex? It's a fair trade.

My brother is the same with his sons. If you ask him about them he'll tell you how great they're doing in school, swimming, football, karate, horse riding and music and comes across as such as great father. I doubt he spends more than 5 minutes with them daily. As can you see, even an adult would have trouble handling such an heavy schedule.

What are you smoking tonight? Running to strange men? What?

I think we should reserve the concern for impoverished children, who not only do not spend time with their parents, but are left to carve a path in the streets. I'll take the schedule tho! Hell yea.
