This Extends To People Of Any Gender, Too! Women Identifying People Should Get To Choose The Course Of

Home Mothers & Working Mothers are both valid.

you can do either one and still love your children with all your heart~

Love to see some public broadcast television defense of trans rights, especially in the sports section! This stuff gets swept under the rug by sexist coaches and toxic sports culture way too often, and it’s really nice to see someone--especially as @kuriquinn said, an old American white dude, the demographic probably least likely to put out that defense--stand up for Mack Beggs like that!

People don’t always have to understand, so long as they are understanding and supportive.

Feminism should definitely be more inclusive of femininity! 

Can we please kill this idea that you can’t be feminine AND a feminist? Who even started this? Who decided that being a traditional woman means you can’t stand strong alongside your sisters?

I highly agree with this.

Now, don’t get me wrong. I am all for breaking the heteronormative mold and rising above oppression. But one thing that I do idolize about that time was the fact that, for some families (including my great grandparents), a family, dog, vehicle and mortgage (not rent!) could be supported with one person’s income. Of course, this varied person to person due to the fact that there were many other intersectional factors at play, but it was true for some.

Nowadays, in most places, you’re lucky to get a half-decent house or a reasonable apartment with both partners in a relationship working multiple jobs, and even then they have to worry about food and bills, nevermind transportation and pets. 

This is why we need a wealth tax and some serious redistribution.

Maybe the fertility rate for The United States wouldn’t be so dismally low if we had an economy the could support single-earner households.

Anyone else overwhelmed with modern life expectations?

Like I could probably have graduated some housewife school like three times over now. I know the cleaning hacks. I know the social planning. I can perform the femininity, in skirts and pants. I know the sewing (functional and recreational) and the crafts. I can cook very well. I know other people of varying gender identities who can do the same (with or without the femininity, as it were).

What I can’t do is focus long enough to write 16 pages of essay on topics I am burnt out on (because of my university taking away spring break cause the Greek life kids couldn’t be responsible about the pandemic and not party for five minutes last semester), to further my education, for a career I never planned to even have as a kid, so I can be self sufficient (good) and avoid being told I’m wasting my potential (bad). Even though I’m smart enough for it, it’s not what I’m truly passionate about.

It’s all so much, like in another life I could have had a couple kids and a husband and a reasonably clean house and been living my best life by now, but instead all I have are increasingly taxing assignments, the single life, a messy house, no time for anything else and enough stress and anxiety to have been institutionalized over back then. Like I just want to be a homemaker. Thanks capitalism
