/Are you guys serious? Women having 'male friends' is the way of the world. Buy her Dr. Laura's book--"The proper care and feeding of husbands"./
Dr. Laura is an obnoxious hypocrite. That book title...my Lord. I'm so glad that my father and brother have the same level of intelligence and self-reliance as the family dog. "Care and feeding of?" WTF?
/Of course we will interact with the opposite sex throughout daily lives,/
Finally a fundie realizes this!
/but to build relationships with them is damaging to our relationships./
"Make new friends,
but keep the old.
One is silver,
and the other's gold."
Unless the friend and husband seriously despise each other for serious reasons, how on earth does having other people in your life besides your husband damage your marriage? If anything, not having other people to depend on aside from your husband shows how unhealthy your marriage is.
/We 'women' have already pushed our men out of the head of the household role, what next?/
If you have the necessary physical characteristics of a woman, you are a woman. So there is no need for the demeaning apostrophe marks. Second, what do you mean, 'pushed out?' I thought men were supposed to be out doing their jobs, while the women took care of the house, according to you. So, why the heck would the man be head of the household in the first place? If he spent as less time at home as possible (which you idiots seem to encourage), he wouldn't know a thing about the household he was supposed to be head of. How does that make sense? Besides, we didn't 'push them out.' We merely told them what should have been obvious at the beginning: that marriage is a partnership.
/Sorry for the vent, but I see too many marriages failing and too many children suffering./
Really? What about the marriages that are failing because the husband never comes home? What about the children who are suffering because Daddy breaks Mommy's face every night to show that he's head of the household? What about when he breaks them to show that he's head of the household? People like you make me sick.
