No, I'm getting you women trying to speak for the Men. that's what.
where are the SAHD's at? chime in please. I know you're out there. these women said so.
So the fact that they don't choose to visit this particular forum (or they choose to abstain from this particular conversation) means that they don't exist? Back to Logic 101 for you.
it's not about "exclusive" jobs, it's about jobs we can do that woman cannot. simple math. think about the most dangerous jobs out there and I bet you my house it's 99.5% Men. and you can't argue with that.
That 99.5% rate has to do with discrimination, not inability. Men like you holding women back from jobs that are oh too dangerous for the faint little woman.

If you are swayed by the court of public opinion, you would not make it as a SAHD. Blaze your own path, make it work for you and yours, then blog about it. Start your own movement.
DH was about an equal parent when eldest was born. We worked alternate schedules to make it work. He excelled at the cleaning, cooking and child care. I do believe dads can do as well as moms at child rearing.
Ladies, There is no reason to respond. He wants to hear from SAHDs. Why he came to a forum that is dominated by women when there are web sites and forums dedicated to SAHDs, I don't think I will ever know. The point is he wants to hear from SAHDs so there is no point in responding.

Who blazed the path for women to be SAHM's? or did they do it as a collective whole?

this comment belongs in the SAHM's thread. not here.

I don't know about 99.5%, but for the sake of non-argument I will agree. I bet you that these men work those jobs because of money, not because of altruism or "but honey, somebody's GOT TO mine the coal!" I know a trash collector. He's a guy, and I would agree that there aren't many female trash collectors out there. He also makes like $70K a year. He does it for the money, not because he loves the work or because somebody has to clean up the trash, by golly. Women don't choose that line of work because it's not financially worth it to them. Sure, if my friend quit work maybe a woman would take his place. But I don't think he wants to quit his job. He likes the money.

Why not ask your 15 friends to create accounts and sign in?
Keep in mind that I can see a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff. One of your buddies better not try to create 15 accounts or I'll be on him like black on coal.

um...you guys said that there are scores of SAHD's out there. are you implying that this thread is invalid? because I don't think so. if the SAHD's are out there. then you and the rest know where they are and can get them on the phone...so to speak..lol
don't try to degenerate the thread with vague assumptions and undercover insults. I'm trying to find answers. you have offer nothigng but borderline trollisms. now stop it and go fetch me some SAHD's that can speak on this here topic, ma'am. pleas.e

That path was created by men to suppress women. Interesting that you now see it as a cushy lifestyle.
