The curse of the modern woman

Recently everywhere I go I hear women talking about how not dommisticated they are. But don't you think that a versitile woman makes a better wife? A woman who is successful in the corporate environment, who cooks well and takes good care of the children. She keeps the house clean and her husband clean and tidy too. She knows her place, but she also makes sure nobody walks all over her. She looks well groomed and respectable. I know some may say a maid can help with most of what I've said. But a personal touch goes a long way in keeping things together. What do you think?

Hi sisterbobo, It is sad that some women don't tend to think of themselves as humans but "women". I always try to see men's behavior towards normal things. They take college degree, get married and then fulfill their responsibilies without complaining. Now place a woman into his place and see what you will get. I bet it will be ego that should go something like "I have a college degree, I am modern, why would I fulfill my responsibilities". Yes, this is the problem with some women. But have you seen a man reminding his wife that he is well-educated and he has a job? No. Why? This is because they know it is the way of life. Women must enjoy the essence of being feminine but at the same time fulfill responsibility as a human being. There is much joy in that. Yes, what you have described is the personality of a perfect woman. Actually this is what I will regard as modern and not the prior one I talked about. Women have to cut off ego and pride. Only then they will be able to see themselves as equal to men.
