In this day and age men should take equal responsibility for such things. Why should the woman be expected to work the entire day then come home and do all the housework and cooking as well? Where's your contribution?

FYI, my father does all the cooking in our house! And he's bloody good at it! As does my brother and my boyfriend, they are new age men who know it's important to take equal responsibility.

Also I can tell you of many men that are stay at home husbands, the wife goes off to work, the guy takes care of the kids etc.

Live in the now dude - not in the stone age! Men like you don't deserve to find a good woman and with an attitude like that - you won't!

I like to cook. I take pleasure in seeing a smile on my wife's face after she has a good meal prepared by myself... :)

Then I order her to wash the dishes... :twisted:

OK, j/k we have a dishwasher...

Like I said if my wife wants to work than I won't stop her from working,but at the same time I would prefer my wife to stay home and take care of the children, because that is how I was raised and that is our culture. A father can never raise children as good as mother.

I would love to cook for my wife..but unfortunately I only know how to cook rise, basta, beans and Eggs...

nice to see that by the 3rd page ppl softened a little bit and started to write real things. :)

ive been for too long a very much so new age woman. never conceived doing smthing for a man that could be qualified as serving/attending him.

after we met, somehow it just became the most normal thing that i would cook for him, clean up after him, etc. and guess what, he tells me "go clean the table and worry about the small work. the rest leave it to me. i dont want u to burn urself or broke ur nails" :)

i guess these kind of things make a relationship or marriage worth it.

Who cares about how you were raised? You have your own mind don't you? Go and take some cookery lessons or at least buy a book and learn how to make some proper food, it's hardly brain surgery.

Your attitude is just lazy! Plus what a load of crap that mothers raise children better, look at all the single fathers out there single handedly rasing their children. Do you see them whining and complaining.

I think you just can't be bothered, you want a girlfriend or wife to be like your mummy and take care of you - well here's a NEWS FLASH no girl likes a mummy's boy!

News Flash every man loves his mother more than anyone...off course you want your wife to resemble in attitude, behavior your mother.

This is truly bizarre .... I love my father to bits but I wudn't want to marry someone who resembles him .... maybe because I have a mind of my own .... and I know that with my lover, partner, best friend I'd want a different relationship

There's something really creepy about wanting a husband or wife who's like you parents, it's actually kinda gross.

Yes I am a bit of a feminist, but I like my men to be men, with a gentle side too of course, but I can't stand blokes which won't stand up for themselves and get stuck in with stuff or help out, that's just wrong.

If you want man to be man than let your man work and bring home the money while you take care of the children.. afterall that is how it has always been..man going of to work, war, hunting and woman taking care of the children and the home... :lol:

Choco I think the perfect match for you would be a bedouin Arab...

Wrong again! Try telling that to some tribes around the world where the women are and have always been the hunter gatherers.

You're such a chauvanist!

I don't wait on any man! It's an equal partnership, or did you forget that point.

Plus I have no intention of ever having children, no thanks! Certainly wouldn't want to bring any into this messed up world.

this is just sad... Good thing not everyone share your viewpoint on life or we'd be extinct!
It's very easy to just turn your back on what's happening in the world and give up. Just please, do tell me what you experienced in life to have this attitude? Where are you from?

I agree with Nick, if the mum's of all the great people who came to this world and created positive change thought like you.. we would be either extinct, or still living in caves.

- Trust: thats a big thing & if it isn't there, then no success I guess!

- Responsibility: knowing how to make life easier for your partner & always cooperate with each other, being able to count on your partner. Marriage is no game to kick!

- Forgiving: We're human & no one is perfect, we all commit mistakes, yeah.

- Discuss: Always discuss things, fighting & swearing won't make things any better.

I think these are the basic things, that a person should have in mind when thinking of getting married.... just an opinion!


I never thought about marriage, but now that u r mentioning these points i think we should keep all of this stuff in mind be4 marrying
