    Individual women doing what those individual women want to do, in a society where they’re free not to do that that thing, is harmful to women’s rights.

    Okay. Yeah, okay.

    EDIT: Today I realized people are still threatened by women exercising their rights. Y’all just brand it differently, when it offends your tastes.

      “No man can tell you how to live! Live your life how you want to!”

      later…

      “No! Not like that!”

      There have always been women that didn’t mind being housewives, and I would certainly love to be a househusband. These people are doing a whole 50’s nostalgia thing, which I think is stupid, but I think a lot people and things are stupid, so whatever. You do you.

      The difference arises when they try to tell other people this is their best choice and not doing it their way is “bad”

          No? Nobody’s said you can’t be a stay at home wife/mother/scrapbooking expert. It might be difficult to live on a single income, so there are practical concerns, but that’s the type of decision you make with your partner.

            Not the point. You were on your way of telling us how is bad for people to choose whatever you don’t like while at the same time advocating no one should tell anyone what to do .

            So which one is it?
