So many things in culture are cyclical. They can be with it and popular for a few years, then fall out of favor for a decade or two. What would you l

@Patientlywaiting Yeah, and your secret is that you hate women, apparently.

@LordShadowfire Why exactly would I hate women? Because YOU think my life style choices and the roll of the stay at home mother are less valuable than what you think I should be choosing and you can't bear the thought that I might dream that more people would live this way? It seems to me that your understanding of not hating women is advocating for the right to choices as long as those choices are in line with what YOU think is right, which of course limits the choices women are allowed to make. Doesn't that actually make you the one who hates woman?

@Patientlywaiting I mean, that might make sense if you were just talking about what you want to do with your life, but you're not. You're saying you want all women to have to stay at home and take care of the house. You want men as head of the household and women to stay at home. That's not just talking about your own lifestyle, so quit hiding behind that.

@LordShadowfire Why wouldn't I want more women who live like me who I could share with and relate to? Obviously if they were desperately unhappy, I wouldn't want that. They would need to be like me, happy and contented with this lifestyle for my wish to be valuable anyway.

@Patientlywaiting That's not what it sounded like.

@LordShadowfire well the post was asking what would I like to see brought back? My answer was:
[quote]Currently I feel like I have a secret that separates me from the majority of society and my friends because the way we live is not socially the norm these days and not easy to talk about. [/quote]

I didn't say: "Because I think all woman should know their place and live in subservience to men because that's the only right and proper way!!!"

I think you should take more time to read comments carefully and really think about what the person is trying to say, especially if you're planning to respond with something that could be taken as a personal attack. There is a real mixed bag of people here, lots who are vulnerable and some with significant mental health conditions. You don't know how they will react to your comments so caution and kindness would always be advisable.
