Love / How do Polish men feel about gender equality? [780]

Yeah I know, official statements were fake for you too.

In the end it doesn't matter as those things are out of our control. I can see the changes in the society and if you wan't to believe it's nothing it's up to you.

For the last time I'm not ashamed so you can save us both some time.

Beside that is your claim, I'm asking you to elaborate on that.

It was explained before. That's why I said you can't be assed to read yet you comment and try to make me repeat myself.

Traditional gender roles in a household cut short:

I do know what the traditional roles are but I'm at a loss of why you mention them...
If it's to show you can give more while women give less then straight away you sink as women were earning money and paying bills long before man knew what a housework even is :)

And what about carpets, windows, spring cleaning? Scrubbing the toilet and kitchen top to bottom? If you can take your half of that on yourself than you are not one of the man we were talking about and you are prepared for true partnership :)

All the points are a credit for you besides that kids part. Awful misconception and a pretty surprising in someone who, as I remember, would like to have quite a lot of them. That is of course unless you want to send them full time into nursery since they are 3 months old.

And great. That is exactly what those young women are doing too.

demanding more while self bringing less to the table

Why do you think they bring less?

I myself demand more of myself

You are doing more around the house or doing it more thoroughly?

soon as you see a man asserting his "authority",

The point me and Pawian are trying to make is that young women are actually getting more assertive and picky and man are getting annoyed because they can't find a gf as they don't meet their standards.

And it's not personal as Iron is trying to make it, it affects society

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Well I'm not.

If being meek, shy and quiet are so great for people you should want more of it for boys. But somehow it's only great for girls?

often confuse religion and the rituals with obedience

I don't see any confusion here, it's one of the core values. You are supposed to listen to god even if he/she/it tells you to kill your kid. Priests are supposedly his messenger on earth and we should listen to them.

I still remember that during my first confession priest would ask whether I was a boy or a girl as if it had impact on our sins (stupid too as soon he would find out by the verb endings)

Well, I can say that when my mom skin stopped her from doing the washing (hand wash) and my father had to take over after few days he asked her what a washing machine does and bought it

He also knows that women are naturally vulnerable and can be more easily manipulated because of their natural desire to love, nest, and have kids.

Yeah, plus girls are usually pressured more to be 'nice, polite, don't argue etc.' Which makes it hard to stand up for yourself.

The 'single women' thing illustrates what I posted before. By guys of certain character and age, it's used as an insult, to kind of suggest that women couldn't 'catch' a man. And as I said in my earlier post it stopped working on young girls, they are not ashamed.

Oh ok so you have a big garden and a ride on mower!

It must be such a heavy task. I assume a women wouldn't be able to do that and would take her man back just for that.

He said he could have handled being sliced open perfectly well and so should she...

What an as*... how did she came up with him? Love is seriously blind.

Probably she should have refused to get out of bed for six weeks

That wouldn't be good for her but he should have taken almost all things on himself save breastfeeding and some cuddles with the baby. I remember seeing women after cc (that didn't go completely up to plan it seems as she was out for a long time) and the midwifes were training the dad in taking care of the twins.

unemployed young man in his early 30s is treating my daughter like a domestic appliance while he sits and plays C. of D.

What does she say about it? And is he at least looking for work?

Not a king

But you try to tell others what to so. If a young girl came here and said 'I'm not in a relationship because I don't want to clean and cook for a man, even my man' her opinion would be as valid as yours if not more considering we are talking about recent changes

mothers have to engage their sons into housework more - even while cooking, why not?

Those pictures of a kid making uszka in Dyrdymalki were of a 4 year old boy. He also bakes and cooks, likes to clean (to a certain degree) . He also helps with repairs, screwing furniture together and small maintenance of the car. So hopefully one day he can be a fully independent adult that won't have to rely on a female

his wife leaves him coz she has had enough of being a servant, he is oh soo much surprised

Funny you said that. I have 3 couples around with small kids and one is splitting right now and 2 others are in serious troubles. Mostly due to women having enough of all the work.and I'm not talking about silly flings but 17 years together, 10 and 7

right yes being in favour of women's rights makes you equivalent to a psychotic organisation

You should be used to it by now. It's not like it will convince this young girls to suddenly accept the situatuon

That's woman's work I am afraid altho I have seen that some exceptional men can be trained to do the washing up .

If that was the case we would have to come to the conclusion that man are actually beneath women and as a true feminist I refuse to accept that:D

mother who was born in 1933 worked all her life married or not, in fact all our neighbouring women of that generation had jobs.

Same here. My grandma too btw.

But this is not about women going to work but guys doing their share around the house.
