"Because a woman who does things for her man is a rare mythical creature? That’s pretty sexist for a guy claiming to want to restore gender equality. Let’s conduct ourselves better than the feminist crowd."
That’s because I AM sexist. The genders are so differently biologically and psychologically that gender equity is simply impossible. As for the social contract between the genders and how badly is been torn asunder, I urge ALL men to work on re-writing that contract on strictly masculine terms.

I said it in a comment here on FSTDT yesterday and I'm I'm going to say it here today again.
Even if women's brains really are slightly differently wired, it still doesn't mean that they deserve less rights than men.
And who are you to say that women are the ones who deserve less rights because of this and not men? Because you are a man? Ooooh, what a shocker!
"the social contract between the genders"
What an utter shit concept. Just because we evolved to live in democratic societies and justify our principles with a constructed common will, instead of justifying it by their actual merit of efficiency and peronal pragmatism, does not mean that every traditional societal form is a social contract in which all parties entered willingly. This orwellian rewriting of history doesn't even make sense, why would women just stop getting an education, having lifes or let them and their daughters be forced into a sexual pseudo-slavery?
That’s because I AM sexist
At least your honest.
The genders are so differently biologically and psychologically
How? Are women a different species like space aliens, or naked mole rats, or something? Aww... You mad women insist on being treated like they have the same rights as you?
The big meanies! Right?
The genders are more alike than they are different. Gender equality is not impossible, and in any case, it's worth striving for, even if we never achieve 100% equality. 75 % equality is better than 25 %.
Social contract between the genders? Every country and every period in history has had it's own set of social behavior between the genders.
A contract is an agreement between at least two parties, stupid. Men can't rewrite it on their own.
Thing is, even if we are totally different, what inequalities are justified based on which differences? And what should we do with exceptions like hermaphroditic people and those who are transgender? Or the mentally challenged or physically handicapped, whose gender-specific attributes mean less and less?
Nah, none of them think that far ahead.
Men already wrote the "contract" on strictly masculine terms. We want it changed. You're too much of a whiny little boy to even consider that, though... you couldn't do without a woman to cook your meals, clean your house, do your laundry, submit to your sexual whims and never, ever question your incredible superiority, competence and intelligence. Or you'll beat her.
Basically, what your types want is a Mommy you can fuck.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
