    LOL Grace I luv ya. Working women are not treated like they are doing something special even though in your day women stayed at home. Women work full time AND take care of the kids and get little recognition. Times have changed for women since your day and its no big deal.

    But times havent changed for men...people still only expect them to bring home a paycheck and take care of 'manly' things. If they help out with children or do laundry they are admired and given kudos.

    Now Grace, you know better than 'that'.

    Get ruddy used to it lass. We do have our ruddy uses too, see.

    Not all as bad as the masses make us out to be. This Glaswegian chick tonight, she'd a made a meal out of you tonight.

    Got to love beautiful working class girls. They're simply the best and yet, better.

    Celtic feeling rampantly sexy.

    Why is it that when a semi or ten ton truck drives by with a chick behind the wheel all the world takes notice. Crap, I could drive by in the biggest truck west of the Mississippi and it wouldn't turn a head. Now I'm not a woman hater but geeeeze, what's the big deal. Cut me some slack man! Whats with the women and girls anyway? Everybody thinks they're so dam special that they didn't grind gears shiftin!!!

    Carmel, I dont think thats a fair comparison. Most MEN cant drive a semi tractor trailer so a woman gets admiration as she should. I'm talking about men who do little nothing things like go to the grocery store with kids or make a simple meal or god forbid folding laundry.

    Celtic, shed have made a meal out of me? hmmmmm...nah I dont think so.

    I liked Grace's point, in that my hubby never took care of the kids either, it was all my job. I too smile when i see fathers doing this now, my times have changed and for the better.

    Balderdash Flower! Just about anyone can drive a semi with a little training! Even a woman for cripe sakes! So a guy gets attention for taking care of his toddler when most don't! Thirty years ago a mixed couple got all kinds of stares in down town Seattle. Now its as common and goes unnoticed. The same with stay-at-home dads. The novelty will wear off and you won't have anything to whine about.!

    I always find having a baby or toddler with me increases my ability to attract women... ESPECIALLY their mothers if I haven't asked if I can borrow them first...
