Mary- don`t try putting words in my mouth, i never said women are 2nd class citizens. Staying at home doesn`t make them 2nd class, it`s how you view it, which is obviously your problem. As far as being jealous of having children, i didn`t say that either, i said you were jealous of sisters who were able to go on field service, some of them might not have had kids, i said you were jealous of their lifestyle. You say that the conversation on service wasn`t intelligent, well i can`t speak about your area, but there were some very intelligent women who had a lot of wisdom and advice where i live, and i can`t believe that you think `politics` is intelligent!! everyone knows it`s a load of unscrupulous men trying to get to the top and make a name for themselves, take your president for instance, he hasn`t done a very good job, turning the world against America with his policies!

87Womens Right`s are they Wrong?
by dido inwomen today fight for `women`s right`s` but are they doing women any favours?
as far as i can see, they have just made it harder for them.
now they are expected to have the kids, work full time, clean house, cook, babysit, taxi drive, nurse, etc., i think they have done us a disservice, by trying to be `equal` to men in the workplace.

chiddy-you are a sleaze ball who has to jump on the bandwagon if somebody is having a debate, like `ganging` up in the playground!. I haven`t seen you post anything of interest, just sleazy topics, which fit your bill.

Mary- you sound a very angry person, have i touched a raw nerve here or something? Is it because you haven`t had the opportunity to be a stay at home mum? Is there a bit of jealousy there, you mentioned sisters out on service, as a social outlet. Maybe they weren`t intersted in talking about working in stuffy environments? I was one of them, that was after i finished cooking /cleaning/ washing/ bringing up five kids, i wanted some light relief, so what? The reason i can run my own business is because i have got a `brain` despite being a stay at home mum, and the reason my marriage broke down is because of the religion, not because of the roles, much to my regret. The fact that my marriage was so good is that my husband didn`t want me to work, he cared about his kids, and wanted them looked after properly, (as did i,) not pushed from pillar to post by chilminders. I must make it clear here, i am not saying women aren`t equal, i`m saying they have lost their `role` in life.

Fe203girl- i have not said that women aren`t equal, we are talking `roles` not equality.
chiddy-you are a liar, and a few on London site know what you have done, so don`t play the innocent.
mmwn- what i don`t understand is where are the father`s? I admire the fact that your mother was able to bring you up as it must have been a hard job, but why keep having kids if there is no father to support them? I am not against men helping out in the home, if they want to cook etc,. great, but i think if a man goes to work, there should be a hot meal on the table for them when they get home.

chiddy- you get on my nerves all the time! You have a one track seedy mind, you pretend that you haven`t posted porn photo`s on the jw site, make up some lies about you were hijacked, and then get kicked off here after a few days, and then come back on with another alias, so jog on!

Mary- when i met my husband, he had nothing, we built it together, i supported his role, he supported mine, we started off renting one room, but we BOTH worked hard. By the way, i wasn`t a typical` witness at all, he was an unbeliever, so i had problems after i became a jw, which added to the deterioration of my marriage. Just because you are a stay at home mum doesn`t mean that you don`t use your brain. You are free to do what ever you please, any hobbies, arts etc., once you get the jobs done. I would hate to be stuck in a stuffy office all day, and same thing day in day out. at least when you are at home, you can chose whether you want to go out on a nice day etc. I got divorced after 25 years of marriage, (due to the wts) and have managed to `survive`, i have my own business, and home, despite being a stay at home mum. The whole structure of society has broken down because of the breakdown in role`s. You always point out the negative examples, there are lots of positive ones you know.

Fe203girl- of course women in the uk have a choice, what rubbish! Some women jus don`t WANT to stay at home and bring up their own kids, i see that as unnatural, and i see men at home as lazy and irresponsible. What`s wrong with getting married and having kids in mid twenties? Ask a lot of men, and they admire women who want to stay in the role that was intended for them, `barefoot and pregnant`, let`s face it we are the weaker vessell, so women should stop trying to act like men!

looking_glass- i don`t think the opening thread has done a disservice at all, it`s my opinion and i believe it, and i think that women rights hasn`t necessarily done women any favours, but give them more respnsibilities and to act like men, domineering. Some women are afraid to have children, or are to selfish that they don`t want to have to put someone else first, and a lot are to worried about losing their figure. As far as being a wts teaching, women `s role was around a long time before the religion.

Insomniac- everything you have stated is all about materialism. I had everything when i was married, 2 holidays a year, new cars every other year, as many new clothes as i wanted, eat out when i wanted, as much jewellery as i wanted, my husband had a very good job, so he provided all those things, AND i had a family, so just because you get married and have kids doesn`t mean to say you still can`t have all those things! Also, kids don`t stay young forever, they do grow you know! I`ve heard a lot of women who have started out with your attitide, and have regretted it later on, but you are entitled to your view, but i would rather be a `mum` and have `love` than material things anyday!
