I'm not saying things couldn't be made any better. Just that making them that good probably is beyond optimistic. Frankly half of these things may be needed not to make things better, but to prevent further decline.

Then she would be the housewife taking care of stuff duh.
They didn't though. Took something like 2-3 decades for that to really happen. With some I'm sure it was a case of the grass looking greener on the other side of the fence. Personally I'm all for women having the choice. I don't believe people should be held to gender roles or judged by stereotypes, but the Left is all about that. Part of people having the freedom to choose means that they might choose something you don't approve of, and that's why it's both sad and hilarious that all these women who admit that they are unhappy with where their lives are will get mad at women who choose to be homemakers and are happy doing so. Up through the '90s being a housewife was still seen as perfectly normal, but now that's frowned upon. Of course what's really sad is it basically isn't possible to live comfortably on a single income, and it's becoming increasingly difficult on two. I'm all for women having a choice, though, and I'll even defend sex workers for choosing to do that.
I totally would. Only downside is that my wife may come to not respect me, at least according to the stats that I've seen. Also the world at large really wouldn't respect that. Fathers looking after their own children are still seen as "babysitting" them.
Yeah, that sure is strange, isn't it. Of course back in the day the government and media were all about keeping people's spirits up so they could endure those hardships, whereas now the government and media are all about how horrible everything is.
Cringe.
Eh, at least to start with this thread was mostly about bashing sex workers. You can't deny, though, that feminists tend to get angry at and bash on women who choose to take on traditional roles, though. I mean, you're doing it yourself. I'll say it again - the thing about people being free to choose is that they might choose something you don't like. Which is why it's frankly appalling that people are propagandized against it basically from childhood now.
Which is sad. Also it's completely unsustainable.

Nope.
Prefrontal cortex keeps developing well into 30s and 40s
Brain is not fully mature until 30s and 40s
(PhysOrg.com) -- New research from the UK shows the brain continues to develop after childhood and puberty, and is not fully developed until people are well into their 30s and 40s. The findings contradict current theories that the brain matures much earlier.
And then after 40 starts a great rewiring that takes a few decades more.
that is believed (but it is not certain) to be reorganizing to maintain functionality with dwindling resources as it ages.
The brain undergoes a great "rewiring" after age 40
In the fifth decade of life, our brain begins a radical "rewiring" that results in networks becoming more integrated and connected.

I'm not a feminist, and I've never seen any talk about housewives at all.
You sure talk like one.

Nothing personal, but I though you were.
That's how you came off to me, anyway.

Funny meme, but God take pity on these poor bastards. What we’ve enabled them to do to themselves will be held against us by future generations.

It will be viewed with exactly the same amount of scorn we view lobotomy today
we mock
> your kid threw a tantrum in school
> your wife was bored out of her mind
> your brother had epilepsy
> no reason at all. just following a trend.
> you read in news that this procedure has no downsides at all and makes you happy, content, fulfilled... it purifies the soul.
> so you literally hired a butcher to stick an ice pick behind his eye and scramble his frontal lobe. the part responsible for long term planning and higher thought.
we do
> your child is scared of puberty
> your wife was bored out of her mind
> no reason at all. just following a trend.
> you read in the news that children commit suicide unless you do this
> so you hired a butcher to chop off the child's tits/penis & crafted horrible fake neo-vagina / neo-penis that gets infected

i'd add Chinese foot binding to the list. they both multalate you so that you fit an artificial mold.
Figured I'd throw this here as it's kind of related
I genuinely believe that she is onto something here. Though I would have the addendum of 'Unless the woman in question already has kids. And even then, she should not have more pets than she has children.'
White women should not be allowed to have pets between ages 14 and 45.
all that money and effort dumped on a toddler surrogate that's just going to be a pathetic little funeral in 15 years.

On the one hand, it's their pooch. I love dogs, so I can understand wanting to do something like this.
On the other hand, it's $40,000. What the fuck...

That's because 'replacing toddlers with pets' is very accurate.
It's not really their pet dog. It's her furbaby.
Society tells her having children is bad, but she still has that maternal instinct.
It's like that one Wonder Woman storyline with whittle babies. The Amazons carved dolls to treat as children and it drove at least one of the Amazons to complete and utter delusion because of how badly she wanted children. And her delusion spooked the others so bad the practice became socially taboo (until Queen Hippo created one or two daughters from clay, depending on which Donna Troy background is being used)
The dog is being used as a surrogate child that's socially acceptable.

It is a tad strange, isn’t it? The beast is not a “fur baby” it is a “companion.” It’s a very special connection that lasts long after the unfortunately short lived animal, but it is not that of a parent and their child.
Exactly the point I was trying to get across.

That's what you and I are on about. Pets are pets, and they can be well loved, but they aren't humans or people.
But not to her.
Because deep down, she wants kids. But society, and feminism, have basically shamed mothers and potential into having as few children as possible, in the name of working for a corporation. Or told them, they can have it all! And that turning out to be a lie, so she has to likely unconsciously settle for a surrogate.
So she puts a lot of effort and misapplied love into what should be a pet/animal companion. And projects all of that maternal instinct onto the dog. That dog is probably more or less treated like a special needs human toddler. And not a pet/animal companion.
This repeats throughout Western society, some of it all over the world. We see it with little girls and their dollies, all the way up to crazy cat ladies. The doll, the pet, the random person, they all get adopted into the position of 'child' in order to fulfill the need to be a mother.
For every single mother who realizes what she wants is a human baby and goes to a fertility clinic, there are probably hundreds if not thousands of women using substitutes like dogs.
Sometimes it's really overt. IIRC Alyssa Milano is on record stating that every time she feels the baby itch she goes and buys a horse.
And, of course, I'm sure that there's an actual psych paper on this. It's probably buried, and the person who wrote it is now a homeless bum after being #MeToo'd.

Made all the worse by the vast majority of women actually wanting children at some point in their lives. Only a very small minority don't, full stop, yet it seems on their behalf the whole thing has been upended. The feminists, in their quest to liberate womenkind, have only made them more miserable.
Women do need to be told "you can't have it all." Yes, fool around in your teenage years and early twenties (use that time to figure if you want the family or the career, then commit), but between twenty-five and thirty try to lock in a partner and decide how many children you want to have before you hit thirty-five. Nature is a cruel mistress and the timer ticks down for female fertility far faster than it does for men.
Edit: Also, be sure to acquire doggo for family anyway. No home is complete without a cuddly wolf.
I had to put our dog down last month. That was sad. Having to bury one of my children might break me.
