Are traditional male/female roles going away?

Traditional Man

  • Works
  • Is the family bread winner
  • Makes the family decisions aka Calls the Shots
  • Sits down and waits on his plate to be placed in front of him

Traditional Woman

  • Cooks
  • Cleans
  • Has and watches the kids
  • Obeys her man

Welcome to 2010 where these roles are somewhat mixed.  Now, the man works, but so does the woman.  The man used to be the bread winner but in many households, the woman is the big dough bringer.  Men used to call the shots, but now women want 50/50 decision-making authority.  Men that currently sit down and receive their plate are getting a bonus.

Women may cook but more so for the kids as opposed to the man.  Although women may clean, they expect the man to clean up as well.  Women still have kids(most of the time – I’m not touching that today), and “obey” is thought of as a command for a dog, not a woman.

So are the traditional roles going away?  Do we have identity crisis in the home?  We’re unsure so you tell us.

    Don’t get me started on fucking sitcoms. Fat bumbling husband with the attractive intelligent wife. That’s a fucking fantasy land. No intelligent attractive person would put of with a fat moron, regardless of gender. They’re just telling people they can get fat and be subservient to there wife and she’ll stay attractive for them. You gotta keep bitches in line. You can’t have your wife or SO getting uppity or gaining weight.

    Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?

    Men still protect women that but times are changing. But all in all, women are still women for the most part and so are the men.

    Education and the need for change has changed the mindset of women to want to do more than sit at home and cook and clean. Not sure about most men, but I would prefer a woman with such a go-getter attitude.

    Big Al, do you kiss your wife or SO with that mouth?

    That traditional stuff is out the window. People are trying to have multifather and no mother households. Might as well kiss the traditional roles good bye.

    I’m looking forward to the poly-amorous households of the future.
